Five Stars! Joanne helped us buy our first home. She was very patient with our lack of experience and very helpful in taking the time to explain the process along the way. We plan to use Joanne for all of our future real estate needs and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Five Stars! We have used Joanne several times for both buying and selling. She is well versed in all aspects of the process. We have very specific needs/wants that she pays attention to and doesn't waste our time on properties that are not a fit. She goes the extra mile for you, and was able to connect us with another top notch agent in a different part of the state when we needed to sell there.

Five Stars! Joanne is a very through and efficient realtor. She was very considerate
of our needs and wants. We sold our home and bought 2 homes, one she helped us with and one was through another realtor out of state. You can tell the difference between realtors when you are working for what you want. We know that Joanne cares about your needs and listens to you. I highly recommend her when it comes to needing a realtor that will work with you and is on your side. She is awesome! Her personal service is exceptional!

Five Stars! My wife and I had the pleasure of Joanne being our realtor. She is knowledgeable, realistic, reliable/flexible and all around great. She has tons of experience in the area that pointed us to the house of our dreams. She met with us afterhours to accommodate our work schedule. Her experience with utilizing VA home loans helped us secure a great inspector - between the two, our house was able to meet all of the requirements for the VA appraiser to say yes the first go around. She was able to negotiate an extension, changes that would need to be made on the property and setup a rental agreement that allowed the sellers to have a roof over their head as they finished their home buying process. I would reccommend to anyone seeking a highly competent and experience realtor.

Five Stars! Joanne was a positive and helpful guide through the process of selling our home. Her knowledge of the area and its assets, her ability to point out and focus on the strongest selling features, and her pro-active marketing--including getting our house on the cover of the local real estate magazine--all made us grateful to have her working with us. We had already moved when the house was on the market, so when minor repairs were identified through an inspection, she oversaw that work; she also arranged for ongoing lawn care so that the house looked its best. We recommend Joanne for her professionalism and attentiveness.

Five Stars! I would highly recommend Joanne Melton to anyone as their realtor. She was very knowledgeable about what to price our house for and how to get the house ready for sale. She was available anytime we called with questions on anything. When the house went on the market she handled it all. We didn't have to worry about doing anything and when it sold she handled it all for us. She is very professional and very friendly. We loved having her for our realtor. Sincerely Mike and Jenny.

Five Stars! My wife and I listed our house with Joanne in the fall of 2012. On our RV trip to California and Arizona early 2013, we decided to setup new home in Phoenix Valley. Joanne did a yearly lease and subsequent sell papers with a new buyer on the Yakima residence. She kept in constant contact with both the buyer and us. Joanne went out of her way to ensure the business deal was fully compliant with the contracts. When the buyer reneged on the contract, she made sure we collected the earnest money and that the house was in good shape. She then re-listed and helped the shippers of our furniture (we had made prior arrangements to sell them to the buyer) to enter and load it for shipment to Arizona.
Joanne was truly an outstanding realtor who is honest, very helpful and truly has integrity to look out for your best interests.

A sincere thank you, for all the support and help you provided during the process of selling our home and making an out of state move to a retirement location. Much thanks for all your experience and professionalism. Knowledge of the paperwork, staging and presentation, market values and coordinating with several agents involved with multiple contingent sales, took a lot of pressure off us in a very stressful situation. Your ease and experience with the loan process and work with our loan officer, helped to smooth out the financial end of the sale and purchase. That and prepping the house made for an acceptance “as is”, which alleviated any extra stress to comply with the buyers acceptance. The rapid response to our questions, and need to communicate with the buyers agent helped to speed along a sale we were under time constraints with. All that and a pleasure to work with. Again, Thank You, Thank You for all you have done!

Joanne Melton was professional and responsive in all our interactions from selling our home to buying a new one. No matter what time I texted or called she was available and made time for all our questions. She is knowledgeable about working with homes sold by buyers as well as other real estate agencies. After selling our home she immediately helped us looked for a new one, taking in to account all our preferences and price range. We ended up purchasing a brand new home because she went on-site to talk to the builder! We are so pleased with her work and will be recommending her to our friends and family.

Five Stars! Joanne was extremely easy to work with. She did her homework and provided excellent advise on presenting and pricing our home to sell. We had a full price offer in eight days. She also helped us with all the closing details. The house sold before there was time to even hold an open house.

Five Stars! It is such a pleasure to write a review for Joanne. My parents needed to sell their home to move into an independent living facility. I live in another state and am unable to travel much so it was difficult to not be able to help them during this critical transition in their lives. Enter Joanne! Joanne helped them sell their home in less than a week, made them feel at ease throughout the process, and instilled a level of trust in us all that was borne out in all her actions. Little did we all know that this transition would come at a critical time for the entire nation, indeed world, during the coronavirus crisis. My parents made a herculean effort to downsize their entire life and my husband and I were to travel to Yakima to help them finalize the last details. When we could not go, and my parents needed to stay in place, Joanne stepped in to take over the many tasks that our family could not fill. She did so with grace, kindness, and seamless efficiency. We are all forever grateful for Joanne and her willingness to do whatever it took to get the house closed and finalized (earlier than hoped!). We could not have done this without her. Do not hesitate to work with Joanne, it is a decision that you will not regret.

Five Stars! Joanne Melton guided me through a process of selling my house, from a first walk-through to preparing the listing for me to review and sign, to guiding the remaining part of the sales process. She was extraordinarily helpful, first telling me of what she expected in terms of the process of getting and reviewing offers; and then leading me through that process, where she saw reason to counter one of the offers and assuredly guiding me to gain a stronger offer than had initially come in. She told me that there was reason (the house, timing in the market, etc) to expect to review offers in six days, and at that time we did have all the offers that we could expect, and countered one, finding a good buyer. Throughout all of this process that is very complicated to a first-time seller, she called me multiple times and emailed a lot of paper, keeping my fully informed and answering every question that I had. She really added value to the sale, and was continually very pleasant to work with. I have been in business in Yakima since the late 1960’s so I know a lot of people, and can say that Joanne was a very good choice of Realtors to represent my home.
