Josie was the listing agent for my son’s residence when he relocated to the West Coast. Since he had already moved, an agent needed to be selected without anyone in our family actually being in Cedar Rapids. I am an out-of-state attorney with extensive experience in real estate transactions, so I had high expectations. Josie exceeded my expectations. She is smart and can be counted on to be on top of what is happening. Josie offered suggestions, answered questions, and gave us the comfort level that we were in good hands. Particularly gratifying to me was her outstanding communication. - Ed Garman, Lawyer in Illinois

During the winter of 2013 Josie Ashmore and her team successfully sold my mother’s house located in Cedar Rapids in less than 60 days. Moving an elderly parent from their home is an emotional experience but Josie’s team was able go from listing to closing in less than 60 days. The house had been on the market for six months with little marketing strategy other than a slide of listing price lowering. Josie took over the listing and completed an accurate market analysis which resulted in a substantial increase in listing price. Her team then staged the house to appeal to our target market and was able to produce three offers for our consideration. As a professor of marketing, I use Josie and her team in my classes as an example of how a successful sales process should be completed. I highly recommend Josie Ashmore and her associates! - Don Jones, Decorah, Iowa
