We couldn't be more pleased with Joanna, CRS Elite Reality. Selling our family home of 60+years was not something... easy to come to terms on. Having an experienced expert, Joanna, who after a single meeting seemed more like a trusted family friend. She sat with us, asked questions, answered questions, explained current and local issues in today's market. Then layed out a plan. Which turned out perfectly, even sold quicker then expected.

Joanna was an AMAZING realtor for us. I found her on Google and from our first contact she was wonderful. She helped us get all the answers we needed for homes we were looking at and helped us schedule private showings. Her team was also excellent.
We put an offer on an house and it was accepted! She made sure everything was in order so we just had to sit back and wait for our closing date.

We had such a wonderful experience that we asked her to sell our current home and that whole process is also going smoothly with minimal work on our end!

As executor of my brothers estate I worked with Joanna from Ohio to sell his home in Arlington. Joanna worked with the company I hired to clear the home of all unnecessary furnishings as well as personally taking care of donating much of the children's clothing and toys to local charities.
I received multiple offers within the first few days after listing the condo thanks to Joanna's pre marketing strategies and impeccable knowledge. Joanna had the home expertly staged and brought in a fabulous photographer to showcase the home which made it more appealing to a larger group of potential buyers.
The house was live on a Thursday with and open house that weekend which brought in several offers. Joanna reviewed the offers, meticulously chose the top three to review with me by phone explaining everything completely allowing me to make a comfortable decision. Listed on a Thursday and a signed contract above asking price by the following Tuesday during the holiday season shows Joanna is committed to excellent service!
Joanna's professionalism, knowledge, honesty and hard work ethic are second to none. I highly recommend Joanna Schlansky, CRS Elite Reality Experts for all of your real estate needs!

Joanna and her team guided us through the complex process of selling and buying at the same time with care and professionalism.

Joanna was incredibly helpful during both the home buying and selling process. She has a ton of knowledge on the Burlington market and the real estate industry in general. It was our first time selling a home and she went out of her way to answer all our questions and make sure we felt comfortable. She was always readily available when we needed her and responded right away by phone or email. She helped us put our home on the market in a matter of days which was no easy feat. We would highly recommend Joanna and her team. Thank you for everything, Joanna and Karissa!

It was such a pleasure working with Joanna! She showed so much care and attentiveness to us througout our home-buying process and I can't recommend her enough to others. She is extremely knowledgeable not just with state of housing in the greater boston region but also about the nuances of the real estate industry. Strongly recommend and we hope to work with her again in the future!

Joanna is at the top of the food chain when selecting a realtor, and especially so for the Burlington market.

I started the process the previous year, picking her brain to determine the best time to list, what price point would be good at that time, and all of the other variables that come into play when selling a home and selecting an agent.

In the end, we had to pivot sooner than expected with the listing due to the low inventory in the hot Burlington market.

We had the house under agreement the same day it hit the market for more than we were originally anticipating.

Joanna was thoughtful in her approach and took a lot of the stress out of the process by acting quickly when we came up with a game plan.

There is no agent that I would recommend more highly than her if you’re looking to buy or sell—especially in Burlington!

Joanna is amazing! She helped us buy our first home 6 years ago and we knew we wanted to work with her again when we were ready to sell it. She guides you through the full process and pushes for what’s best for her clients. She got us an amazing offer on our home that had terms that worked for us and then helped us find our forever home where she negotiated quite a bit for the seller to resolve a few things in a very competitive market and we couldn’t be happier. If you want someone that keeps your best interests in mind we’d recommend Joanna and her team.

Joanna was terrific in every regard. Her marketing of the property (staging and professional photography) was A+, as was her ability to communicate with us internally and with potential buyers. Joanna's team prepped the house and sold it within two weeks, which was very important to us. We have recommended her to our neighbor (with whom we are very close with) and will recommend her to anyone we know that is looking to sell their home. She is a terrific agent, my wife and I had a very positive experience with Joanna leading the sales effort.

My family and I had the pleasure of working with Joanna during our home search. We were based outside of MA and needed assistance coordinating our house hunt. Despite that, Joanna’s ability to manage our search was impressive. Joanna went above and beyond to make the process smooth and stress-free. She promptly responded to our inquiries, scheduled virtual tours, and provided valuable insights about the local market.
Joanna took the time to understand our preferences, likes, and dislikes. She didn’t pressure us for a quick sale but patiently guided us toward the right fit for our family. Joanna was available whenever we needed her. Whether it was a call or a message, she responded promptly and provided excellent support.

In summary, Joanna is an outstanding real estate agent who truly cares about her clients. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and responsive professional.

Joanna Schlansky from Elite Realty Experts delivered an exceptional experience. Her expertise and communication skills made the process stress-free. She navigated the market with finesse, securing an excellent offer.
Our first offer fell through 1 week before closing because of lack of funds. Joanna reposted and circulated that the house was back in the market and clearly explained why. Within 48hrs we got an all cash offer and we were able to close in a week.

Highly recommend Joanna for her professionalism and dedication to exceeding expectations. A true asset in the home selling journey.

From the beginning we started to work with her Joanna was very attentive and responsive, she was highly available and always had positive and constructive vibe so we felt getting listened and seen. She expressed her opinion and furnished us with good advice while we were searching for a home. We asked her a last minute showing on a property which she managed to get. She planted us realistic expectations ultimately putting together a winning offer. Then she did not hesitate to ask her professional acquittance to evaluate a specific work to be done then successfully negotiated seller credit based on the estimate. She provided us loan officer references and we got a very competitive loan with great conditions and seamless process. She was also checking on us after closing and provided us several home improvement professional references greatly easing moving forward. We are very thankful to Joanna and Karissa for their efforts and support so to win our home in the current difficult home buyer environment.

I very rarely write reviews but in this case I would like for everyone to know what a wonderful experience we had with Joanna Schlansky.

I have never used her but I have used numerous realtors in the past on property in which I have bought and sold.

I first met Joanna in Burlington at a home that was selling. Being a realtor myself, in the past in Reading I knew all the questions to ask. She completely and honestly answered each and every question I asked. I hired her on the spot.

This was not an easy home to put on the market, meaning probate court was involved. She handled it like a professional. Even calling my lawyer and making sure I had all the documents that I needed.

To be very honest, there is not a realtor that I would hire again but her. I have the utmost confidence in Joanna. She does what she says. You just can’t find a people like that anymore.

I would greatly recommend this Elite Realty Experts, Joanna Schlansky to anyone that is needing a honest and reliable realtor. You are the best very impressed!

Joanna,
Thank you so much, for a wonderful experience!

We were looking to relocate from MA to NC. We needed to sell our home in MA quickly. During my walks around the neighbourhood, I noticed that there were several homes that were listed by Joanna. One thing that caught my attention was one house that was not listed by her and had been in the market for a while and later when she took over, the home sold within days. That I felt was the hallmark of a very good real estate agent. So both my husband and I interviewed here and we were both extremely impressed by her clear and crisp vision as to what needs to be done to sell the home at a good price. We put up the home with her and every thing that she had said she would do she did and we received the offer within a week. She is definitely one of the best real estate agent that we have worked with and very result oriented and extremely pleasent to work with. In the Burlington, MA area, she will be the absolutely best agent to work with. She is very friendly.

We've been searching for the perfect home for some time now and have been working with Joanna. Joanna patiently worked with us in a very competitive market. When we found the home that we loved she quickly and efficiently got our offer through to the sellers agent and to our surprise it was accepted. From there on, Joanna got to work and helped us sell our previous home. Her staging company made our home look gorgeous and her photographer was amazing. Joanna worked tirelessly the second our home hit the market. She hosted 3 very busy open houses and many private showings. Our previous home was sold after the first open house. Joanna's knowledge on pricing got us the foot traffic we needed to get our home sold quickly, we got multiple strong offers and way over asking!
Joanna also helped us with our attorney's, she answered every question or concern that was brought up. She made the buying process simple and the selling process even easier. Forever grateful to Joanna and her team.

Joanna was very knowledgeable with the local market in Burlington, MA and helped me devise a strategy to maximize the selling price while also considering my other requirements on the timing of the sale.

Fantastic to work with Joanna and Karissa. Extremely smooth process from the initial consultation to closing. Joanna and Karissa were both available to help and answer all questions without hesitation and time of day. The quality of service they provide is A+

During the initial consultation, Joana and Karissa explain each stage of the home purchasing process, talked about their experience in the industry, and even provided a book that goes into further details which Joanna wrote!

Going to showings with Karissa was a pleasure. Very knowledgeable and would point out issues with houses. It felt like having a general inspection. Thanks to her, we were able to avoid questionable properties.

As for the offer and P&S agreements, they were very helpful in answering all my questions about contingencies without a trace of impatience. On the contrary, Joanna and Karissa were welcoming and friendly. Always looking for our best interest and fighting for us.

If you're new to the market or you've been searching for a while, do yourself a favor, contact Joanna and have an initial consultation. You'll be happy you did.

We got into the home market looking to buy a house somewhere in Feb 2020. We did not have an agent at that time and we were pretty new to the whole process. The first 2 houses we went were both Joanna’s and we did a casual zoom call and decided to have Joanna as our agent. Housing market was crazy when we started looking. Joanna was always there guiding us, helping us along the way. She respected our choices and would not push us into buying something we didn’t like and that’s what we love about Joanna. After almost 1.5 yrs of putting offers and getting rejected even though all offers were above asking price, we finally made it. Joanna was with us for 1.5 yrs she never left us and had the same commitment in showing us the houses as of day 1. I would highly recommend her.

Joanna and Karissa were great from the very beginning. They helped us find a new place to call home. At every step of the process they were right there to help problem solve any issue. They are a tireless, hard-working team that worked with our individual needs, found us the right option and helped us get an accepted offer in a really challenging market environment!

I cannot possibly recommend Joanna with greater confidence that she will help you meet your goal. Her expert advice helped my girlfriend and I navigate a tricky situation and close the deal on our first house together! She has been incredibly diligent throughout the whole process making everything so simple and Joanna is incredibly resourceful, never leaving our questions unanswered. As everyone knows, no one has ever seen a housing market like this and Joanna brought the expertise we needed to get our offer accepted. She answered every phone call and gave her honest opinions throughout the process, and has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped our family make the most important purchase we might ever make and we can’t thank her enough. You’re the best!

Joanna was a pleasure to work with. Selling a home is a stressful undertaking. Joanna and her team provided me with the right amount of guidance, nailed the pricing strategy, and secured 10 offers in less than 6 days. Joanna appropriately vetted the offers, and the sale went off without a hitch. I would highly recommend engaging Joanna’s professional services if you are looking to sell or buy a home.

Joanna was our realtor when we purchased our first home in 2012 and again in 2021 to represent us in the sale of that house and the purchase of our new home. In this wild market, we called Joanna with a long must have list and some contingencies. Joanna made the impossible happen - we got top dollar for the sale of our first house and she found us our dream home. The process of buying and selling a home is stressful, emotional and exhausting - but Joanna is on top of every detail to make the process smooth, she will go to bat for you and is an absolute pleasure to work with - like working with a great friend. You will not find a better team to work with for your real estate needs.

Most of us buy and sell a home only a few times in a lifetime. For such a consequential
transaction, you want expert guidance. Joanna has the experience you want.
We have used her for both buying and selling; she knows all the ins and outs.
We placed our trust in her and she did not let us down. Highly recommend.

Joanna and her team were incredible to work with on our Burlington home search. She was consultative from the very first “we’re thinking of buying and selling” meeting to nailing down our wish list and helped us navigate the challenges of buying a home in this market ultimately crafting a creative offer to help us land our perfect new construction family home. She and Karissa also guided us on the sale of our Wakefield home and made that process as simple and seamless as possible with perfect timing to alleviate the stress on our family. We are so thankful that she was always a text or phone call away. They are true expert professionals, real-time communicators and on top of that, incredibly sweet and fun to work with.

She guided us through the entire process from the initial meeting and recommending what to do before listing, to the listing price, staging and ultimately to the final offer and ensuring all was set for closing. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking to sell their house! Everyone she works with including Karissa on her team and the other professionals she works with (stagers, photographers, etc.) did an outstanding job too. Thanks for everything Joanna!

We needed an agent to help sell our home in Billerica. After some research we decided to go with Joanna and we’re glad we did. The house was empty so she hired a staging company which made a huge difference. It looked really great. She is very experienced and was always there for us, guiding us through the whole process. She responds immediately to any questions. She took great care of us and we would hire her again in a heartbeat.

I have been delaying on this review a bit coz I really wanted to take the time to appreciate all the support and guidance from Joanna. I happen to meet this awesome and amazing realtor by chance and it so happened that our first meeting turned out to be my last search for a realtor as I ended up buying the property through her. Although she was both the buyer and seller agent she was fair , transparent & very responsive. Being a first time home buyer I absolutely was clueless about the process however Joanna made it as simple as possible and the entire sale went through seamlessly. She was meticulous in her followups with Leaders and others involved in the process and held everyone together so that I did not have to run around multiple places to get the information i needed. She is a wealth of information and was generous enough to connect me with some good contractors and consultants for some house remodeling even though it wasn't part of her responsibility. Would definitely recommend her services to anyone looking to buy a house especially in these tough situations as you would need a trusted advisor by your side.

Joanna was our buying agent 7 years ago, then our selling agent on the same house this spring. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and her knowledge of the Burlington area market is unmatched.

All of Joanna's advice was spot on, and she explained her listing strategy clearly. Her thoughts on what parts of the house to stage, what furniture to keep was great. All of her associates are thorough and professional, the photographer was incredible.

Weeks after the house closed, she worked to close up loose ends and make sure all parties were happy. Highly recommend.

If you are looking for an agent that will push the closing timeline, Joanna and team are the choice for you.

There is no way that this purchase of our new home could have gone any better, and probably would have been a nightmare, without Joanna Schlansky. We met her initially as a seller's agent on another property - and she was upfront an honest enough to tell us, after speaking with my wife and I, that this was not the property for us. Certainly turning down a potential sale was not in her best interests! We signed with her as our buyers agent on the spot.She then used her broad connections to show us a property pre-listing - we only got to see it because of who she was and her relationship. She stayed with us, listened to our comments, and again told us this was not right for us - watching out for our needs.And now, a mere two months later, we are in our new home in Burlington! A PERFECT fit. And again, without Joanna at the ready, the process would have been so much harder. She is a wealth of referrals - not just for mortgage and attorney referrals, but everything from plumbers, fence people, cleaning, crews, etc etc. Just because we bought the house, she does not disappear! During the closing process, she was available nights, weekends - I did not expect it, but there she was with a text or a call.And always - always - with the most pleasant personality and attitude.This was the first weekend we were in the house, and she reached out Monday to see how happy we were. She certainly did not need to do that.Yes we could have bought a house without Joanna - but I can honestly look back and say the whole experience was pleasant, smooth, straightforward and, after the closing, she continued to be there, helpful and ready to make us happy.And she did.I recommend Joanna Schlansky without any reservation. I know she will do for you what she did so well for us!

We've used Joanna's service to list and sell our house in Burlington.
I've met Joanna several times as a seller's agent and was impressed with her knowledge and authenticity.

We met and set expectations to ensure a smooth process from end to end as we planned our out-of-state move. Joanna brought in her team of experts to refresh our house and set it up to get the best offer.

From the S&P agreement through closing after we moved to another state, Joanna and her team were there to help and support us.

Joanna was very responsive in communicating with us and was always available to us throughout the process.

We are delighted with the result and happy that we chose Joanna to work with us. We would recommend Joanna to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in her area.

Joanna is the most professional, responsive, dedicated, and more real estate broker that I have worked with since 2007. Joanna has been my trusted advisor on the sale and purchase of four properties as she is a Certified Buyers Agent and a Certified Residential Specialist. In each case, Joanna exceeded my expectations! She has always put my interests first and takes charge so that I never had to worry my way through each transaction, as buying and/or selling a home is very stressful!

Joanna is a subject matter expert like no other! She is a leader in her profession with 21 years of experience, and she has been the recipient of numerous awards. Joanna’s team is fantastic and mirrors her professionalism and dedication. They are a pleasure to work with! She and her team deal with all of the financials, legal responsibilities, staging, preparing homes for sale with her list of skilled contractors that includes a deep bench of resources that removes all the heavy lifting and the behind the scenes headaches!

Joanna and her team cross the “t’s” and dot the “i’s” until the deal is sealed! If you’re trying to maximize profits, find your dream home at a fair price, and remove any and all worries, call Joanna!

My wife and I were looking for a bigger house for a reasonable price, but with the market the way it is, we were very skeptical we’d find something in our price range without having to compromise. We chose Joanna to help us in our search, with the expectation that we would have to move into an apartment and wait until the market cooled off. Not only did Joanna find us a house within our price range, she found us our dream home! Her team was a true pleasure to work with and made us feel at ease with the stressful process of selling & buying at the same time. Her and her team went above and beyond to answer any questions we had and was always available. Highly recommended!

I've been working with Joanna over the past 15 years. Her knowledge and understanding of real estate is exceptional. Always realistic expectations - others promise results, Joanna delivers. It's easy to claim how good a real estate broker you are in a hot market. Joanna has proven herself year after year in good times and bad - that's the true test. In today's fast paced world, clients demand responsiveness. This is where Joanna shines. She and her team are always available (for the easy questions and the hard).

I had a rent house in Billerica and I live in Fort Lauderdale. The house needed to be sold so I started with a Google search for realtors in the Billerica/Burlington area. After calling around to several realtors I spoke with Joanna. The search was over. Joanna was intelligent and thoughtful on the phone and very easy to speak with. A couple of weeks later I made a trip up to Mass and met Joanna in person. She was just as friendly, personable, and professional in person. The tenants in the house decided to be difficult and it took two years to get them out. Joanna stuck with me for two years while all this went on. Then she sold the house in ONE DAY! We were able to close in less than a month. From the time the tenants finally moved out to the time we had cash in the bank was 28 days. It was an amazing experience working with Joanna and I can't recommend her highly enough!

I had been looking for a home for quite a long time, and opted not to work with a realtor as my criteria were very specific and it made the most sense for me to do the leg work of exploring homes on my own. I met Joanna at an open house for a property that I was very interested in but not quite ready to buy. I chatted with her about my needs and she recommended a local lender to work with that turned out to be fantastic. Fast forward over two years later, I was finally ready to make a move on a home and realized that I needed a realtor to put in the offer on my behalf and work with me through the closing process. Joanna really went to bat for me and my family to help us achieve the goal of purchasing our own home. I was new to the process and she was very accommodating about giving us a second showing before the offer and working with us throughout the process. The entire team between the realty office, mortgage lender and attorneys worked together seamlessly. Everything was highly professional and friendly, and went forward according to schedule like clockwork. I was kept informed of the status the entire way. I would work with Joanna again and again––but hopefully won't have to for a while as I've found the perfect home for me and my two sons!

When it comes to real estate agent, two of the most important characteristics in my opinion are being knowledgeable about the market, and fast in execution. Being knowledgeable means that she needs to know very well about the location and value of the home, and provides the best suggestion for the buyer about the right price – This involves a lot of years of experiences. Being fast in execution means keeping things moving forward, keeping every parties in the loop, and being always on time for action items one after another. Joanna is just such an agent! It’s been such a smooth experience buying a home with her! What’s more, your journey with Joanna won’t stop at closing – She’s kind enough to keep sharing her experience about owning and living in a home. Will definitely recommend Joanna to friends who are looking to buy new homes in the area!

She was beyond amazing, came up with a best plan, best price to attract buyers, arranged for all the showings, and was always very responsive (and calming) to our emails/calls.

Joanna was amazingly helpful during our home buying process, and even after we closed has continued to be a great resource for questions we've had as first time home buyers!

My husband and I first met Joanna the day we looked at what would become our future home. We had reached out to set up a meeting with her the night before, and she responded quickly. We did not yet have a realtor, or a pre-approval. When we met her in person, we were very impressed with her knowledge, eagerness to help, and kindness. She came and visited the house with us the next day, helped us put an offer in, and even helped us get a pre-approval that same day.

When the sellers came back to us asking for a final offer, she helped us negotiate a revised offer that got us the house! I truly think we would have missed out on the perfect house for us had we not had Joanna as our realtor.

I cannot explain how thankful I am that we were able to work with Joanna and her team, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a house. She is experienced and knowledgeable about the area, has great connections and I always felt as if we were a priority throughout the entire process.

You made first time home buying a pain-free process! Thank you Joanna for the wonderful experience!

Joanna's knowledge of the market and keen instincts meant that my house was prepped correctly and priced appropriately, and I had an accepted offer after only a week of being on the market. Her attention to detail and her excellent team were a huge asset and I was always made to feel that I was her only client. Her work ethic is second to none - simply, she will do whatever it takes to create a win-win deal for all parties. I highly recommend her to anyone selling their home in the Billerica area.

Joanna did an amazing job of selling our house and she did it in ONE day!! She was very professional, she assessed our home and considered what we were looking for in the house selling experience. Her vast experience is only outshined by her ability to relate to people in a friendly and fair manner. The next time I have a house to sell, Joanna is my go-to agent! Many thanks for her speedy, kind, and professional work!!

have bought and sold 5 properties over the years. Johanna is by far the most professional dedicated, knowledgeable and supportive realtor I have ever dealt with. She answered all questions quickly and with never ending patience for she understands that for her clients this process is a tremendous stressor!
I chose Johanna through reviews and references but first I drove around Burlington looking at all the For Sale signs and counted which realtor had the most listings. Joanna was the winner in the “listing” game. I went online and researched her reviews and references. All the reviews were excellent.
Work with Johanna... she’s honest and sincere and she will not steer you wrong.

Joanna was instrumental in our search for a new home. Aside from making sure we were able to timely see every home we were interested in, she did an amazing job of walking us through every step in the home buying process. From the first showing to our house closing, Joanna was there to answer all of our questions and make sure we were getting the best bang for our buck!

Joanna facilitated the sale of our home which closed in October 2019. Joanna was knowledgeable of the area, the process, and what to expect. She guided us through prepping the house for the showing and could recommend vendors as needed (for us, a real estate lawyer, electrician and temporary storage). The communication of important matters was immediate and her availability for questions or concerns was exceptional. I would not hesitate to work with her again.

I used Joanna in 2016 to purchase my first house. We had no idea what we were doing, no idea what lawyer or mortgage office to use, no idea how the process went. Joanna was instrumental in educating us on all of this in a very quick and very easy to understand explanation. She didn't leave out any details and made us aware of things to be on the lookout for. When the appraisal didn't go as planned; Joanna managed to talk sense into the sellers and sellers agent to make our first home purchase a reality. Moreover, when I had emergency surgery the night before closing, she was able to do the final walkthrough for us and made sure everything was as she would want it if she were buying the house. She and her team were able to orchestrate them coming to my hospital room to finalize everything to make it easier on me and to not delay the process. Without Joanna, we would never have been able to get this house and we are so thankful for her help. You won't find a better agent out there. On a side note, I've worked with her outside of our transaction and she is always working!!! She will work to the bone for you regardless of what she is doing!

Found Joanna through Zillow. Right after the 1st meet I knew I had approached the right person. She made the whole process so easy for us. Even though she has a million other things she made us feel that we were her only client. She was available always and even when she was on vacation. She has an awesome support team. We can blindly follow her as she has our best interests in mind. Now she is more of a friend to us rather than our realtor. Thanks Joanna for helping us find our dream home. You are the BEST.

Joanna and her team were fantastic as we worked through the process of purchasing our home. We saw a few homes that we needed private showings arranged, and Karissa went through the process of setting them up, attending with us, walking through the home, pointing out things we hadn't noticed and going to the local towns to check zoning and environmental limitations. Joanna and Karissa maintained contact with us through the whole purchase process and diligently worked around a delay with our lender to ensure we still closed on time with zero timeline implications.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Joanna as our realtor. From the moment we contacted her, she was attentive and on the ball with our timeline. We appreciated her responsiveness and how she guided us through the entire process. If it wasn't for Joanna and her awesome team....along with the combination of her extensive skills, experience and innovative ideas, we would not have secured our dream home in such a challenging market. We are very grateful that we had her in our corner for the purchase of our "forever home".

My wife and I were so fortunate to have found Joanna and her team. We received approval for a corporate relocation to another state, but had very little time to move in order for our children to start school on time. We were concerned that the aggressive timeline would cause added challenges, but Joanna and her team developed an immediate action plan laying out key data and important milestones that guided us through the process. Within weeks, our house was on the market with a highly active open house, resulting in multiples offers well over asking. In short, Joanna and her team executed our plan flawlessly.

Joanna recently sold a home for us. She is very well in tune with the local real estate market and made the process very transparent and easy for us. We chose Joanna based on her excellent reviews and are very happy that we chose her. Joanne worked early and late and communicated frequently about the status of the sale. We would definitely use Joanna again and it was a pleasurable experience

Joanna is truly the best of the best. I just sold a home with her and she made the process so easy. Although I am sure she is very busy, she somehow made me feel like her only client. She was responsive and focused. Every detail of the sale seemed easy because she was on top of any issue before it arose. She is warm and kind and effective at her job. I would never consider working with another agent.

I just sold a home with Joanna and she was an amazing agent. I spoke with three other agents and she was so poised, knowledgeable and pulled together that I knew I wanted to work for her. Her commission was very competitive and she made every part of the process low stress. She had a great strategy for selling the house and executed everything promptly and expertly. If you are selling your home you should talk to her first! I would recommend her to any friend and use her again in a heartbeat. She earned by trust and respect.

From day one we knew we were going to be in good hands with Joanna! As two first time home buyers we were skeptical and nervous about the process but from our initial meeting Joanna was able to ease our nerves and walk us through the entire process. She was extremely accessible through text/phone/email, even in person meeting whenever she was needed. When it came to placing our offer, Joanna was strategic to help us make a competitive offer that stood out and the first offer we placed was accepted! During the purchase and sale process she was knowledgable about exactly what to negotiate for so that we knew we we were getting the best deal possible. Even after we closed, Joanna was constantly in contact and kept in touch to make sure that things were still going smoothly. When we had questions after the closing and a minor unexpected plumbing issue Joanna immediately took our phone call and provided an immediate solution which took a lot of stress off of us. We were so lucky to have such a great person to guide us through this process!

Joanna Schlansky and her partner, Carly Reidy were great to work with! I was relocating from out of state and their knowledge of the local area, local laws, and local contacts who assist in the homecoming process was second to none! I interviewed several other Realtors, and I'm very glad I went with Joanna and Carly. They are both true professionals, and very personable and caring. If you are looking to buy in the Boston area, please contact Joanna or Carly. They will take care of all your real estate needs very efficiently and with personal care. Highly recommended!

Absolutely FLAWLESS experience! I can't say enough great things about our work with Joanna. From the first call interaction, right through to the closing and even after, she has been incredible. She keeps the buyer's best interests in her sight throughout the entire process, is ALWAYS accessible, doesn't leave one unanswered question, and in all of that, Joanna is THE NICEST person you'll ever work with. She walked us through the entire process step by step, all the service providers and partners that she's recommended were incredible and made us feel safe and comfortable as first time home buyers. You will NOT be disappointed working with her. If you're are looking for a perfect house for you/your family, pick up the phone and call her NOW!

I cannot say enough good things about Joanna! She is a pleasure to work with and would never steer you wrong. It was our first time buying a home, and she made everything so easy and stress-free. During our first meeting, she took the time to understand what we were looking for and was able to narrow our search to exactly what we wanted and what fit for us. She counseled us through the entire home buying process, and kept tabs on everything. She is attentive, proactive, and incredibly knowledgeable. We really appreciated how accommodating she was. She was always available to answer our questions, and gave insight and advice when needed. She goes well beyond what is expected of a real estate agent. Words truly can't express how grateful we are for everything she did for us. We highly recommend Joanna and look forward to working with her in the future!

Having the priviledge of working with Joanna is a moment unlike anything else in life. Buying a home is a stressful and scary endeavor. She made it so seamless, comfortable, easy and even quite enjoyable and exciting. She is warmer and sweeter than freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, but there is nothing original about her flavor in the realtor industry. She is a highly calibrated professional who executes each transaction like an absolute master and before you know it you're calling her family. I genuinely adore this woman and only want to give her a huge hug each time I see her. She has helped me and my wife buy our first home, helped my parents sell their home and buy another. All within a year this occurred. On top of all of that. Joanna's prolific stature in the networking industry has just landed me my new job. Ask me anything you want but not even this review can reflect her true austere. She is an enigma, a one of a kind, an absolute gem. I cannot be more thankful for her path crossing into ours.

My husband and I bought our first home with Joanna and could not be more pleased with the experience. We instantly felt like Joanna wanted to find us the perfect home just as much as we did and would do anything to help us do so. She was knowledgable, patient and always available. She brought comfort to us in what had been a stressful home searching process before working with her. Our offer was accepted on the first home we put an offer in with Joanna and from the home search right through to the closing and then after Joanna was there for us for anything we needed and more. She truly went above an beyond to make sure we found a home we were happy with and excited to live in. Working with Joanna made us feel like we had the perfect person representing us and protecting us. I would feel beyond confident recommending her to anyone with complete assurance. We feel lucky to have worked with her and if and when the time comes for us to move, Joanna will be the first person we call. Thank you Joanna for an excellent first time home buying experience! You are truly amazing!

We have nothing but good things to say about Joanna as she took us step-by-step through the entire process of selling our first home...of nearly 49 years. She was very professional, doing an excellent job of helping us stage our home, determining the appropriate asking price, selecting the best from the several generous offers, and ensuring a smooth closing. Not only that, but she went out of her way, doing extra background to help us select an appropriate buyer agent at our ultimate relocation in the south.
