Jean Joh

Five Stars is not a high enough rating for Jean Joh. She helped us buy our first house and 10 years later, Jean helped us sell it. I can't say enough excellent things about Jean. If we hadn't moved out of state, we would have used Jean again. Who knows, if we ever move back to the Bay Area, Jean will be the first one we call. I strongly recommend that when it comes time to buy or sell your home, you listen to what she has to say.

If you're going to buy or sell real estate you definitely want Jean Joh as your real estate broker. She makes the whole process easy, and is on top of everything. Always. I've been buying and selling real estate for 45 years, and I have never met a real estate broker better than Jean. She goes the extra mile for her clients. “Forget the rest. Jean’s the best!”

Jean Joh is knowledgeable, caring, honest, and understanding. She was engaged and supportive throughout every step of the process, as we tried to find our dream starter house in the worst market possible. She never showed anything but dedication to do her absolute best. In fact, if it weren’t for Jean’s quick thinking, we wouldn’t have gotten the house we did. I am so lucky to have worked with her.

We have used Jean on several real estate transactions. She is GREAT! What sets her apart from many of her colleagues is her tenacity in getting the job done until the very end (even after the sale has closed and there are still details to follow up on)... She is also pleasant, market knowledgeable and easy to work with. My wife and I have been involved in the purchase and sale of homes for many years and we believe Jean is one of the best out there. We highly recommend her.

There should be an option for 10 stars! And they should be platinum, better than gold! As a fellow real estate agent and broker/owner of my own real estate company in far northern California, I am extremely impressed with Jean. As a colleague, I know what to look for ...and Jean has it! Her whole aura is levels above most in this profession. She is a true professional. What does that mean? Well, she is dedicated to helping people through the process, no matter how long it takes or what challenges come up (and believe me, in real estate, there are always challenges), she is thorough, detail-oriented, caring, honest, "cool, calm and collected" at all times, and has a deep humility that is rare. She is organized, on-time, has "her people," works very well with others and "gets the job done." She takes her fiduciary duties seriously; when you are dealing with the largest investment of your life, you MUST be able to trust your real estate argent. Jean tops the list! There are many "salespersons" who are only eager to "get the next sale"; and then there are those very rare real estate professionals who truly understand and bring the whole human approach to this process of selling (or buying) a home. They are genuine, honest, caring, humble, and see their work as a mission of sorts, a mission to help their fellow human beings through what can be a most challenging process of selling a family home or buying their first ever home: Jean Joh is that person. This was a very difficult process for my siblings and I; to "let go" of the home we all grew up in, spent holidays in as adults with our own children, had weddings, birthday parties, and many other life events in, over the course of 60 years ...Jean's sensitivities, cool and calm demeanor when things got emotional for us, gentle persuasions and kind care and respect for our feelings and for the home was profound. She showed her tenderness and care from her first walk-through. As a "colleague," I was doubly impressed by her thoroughness in understanding the entire property and all of its nooks and crannies and idiosyncrasies (an 1894 Victorian has lots of both!) We had already interviewed 3 other agents, but Jean "blew each of them out of the water" with her attention to detail, follow-up, care for our wishes and concerns, and sensitivities to our memories, the "loss" of our parents... and now the family home. Jean knows her market very well. AND she knew the BEST strategy for pricing and negotiations to bring in the highest and best offer. She is a magic genie at THAT! She earns 10 PLATINUM stars in my book. I am extremely PROUD to call her a fellow Realtor, and highly, HIGHLY recommend her. (But, I am guessing you figured that out already.)

Jean was both professional and personable. She quickly organized the staging of our house, posted the For Sale sign and scheduled the home showings with ease even with the COVID restrictions. Jean is respectful and caring to work with. She communicated with us on a routine basis and organized our six offers in a way that was understandable to us & with prioritization so that we could easily make our decision. We highly recommend working with Jean for buyers & sellers alike! Thank you Jean! Dave & Debbie of Millbrae

There are so many real estate agents to choose from in the Bay Area (we’ve worked with several over the years). However, experience has taught me that agents really do make a difference and it’s important to choose someone who is knowledgeable, dependable and responsive. We just sold a house in South San Francisco and it was a great experience – everything went smoothly, we got over the asking price, and it closed in less than 30 days. I highly recommend Jean Joh for these reasons: • Personable and easy to work with – Jean has excellent communication skills (clear, succinct) and gave us updates on a continuous basis via email and/or text. She’s also detail-oriented and has excellent follow-through, which rate VERY HIGHLY on my list of criteria. • Responsive – the one thing I love about Jean is that she always gets back to me right away (there’s nothing more annoying that someone ignoring your calls\emails!). If she happened to be occupied with something else, she’d let me know that she couldn’t respond at that time, and then tell me when she would get back to me. It felt to me like she was working for us 24/7 (and I know she has plenty of other clients). • Knowledgeable – Jean demonstrated strong knowledge about real estate in the Bay Area and offered us helpful guidance throughout the whole process. If she didn’t know the answer (e.g., impact on taxes), she’d tell us and recommend who we should speak with. She walked us through the whole process, told us what to expect, explained the “fine print” behind what we were signing, etc. • Integrity – after working with Jean on a couple of home sales, I fully trust her advice and recommendations. This is critically important since real estate involves some of the biggest financial decisions we make.

Jean was truly amazing in every way. She is knowledgeable, trustworthy, clear in explaining the process, attentive, and thorough. She is always available for questions, and she is an outstanding communicator. I always felt confident in her ability to manage every aspect of the selling process, and she made every step easy. In addition Jean is very kind and considerate and understood the emotional ties we had to our family's home. Jean is a true professional in all aspects. I give her my highest recommendation. She is a star!

As someone who’s been in the construction services industry for a lifetime, I’ve come to appreciate how rare it is to do business with someone who does what they say they’ll do, who stays on top of the details of the process … and who will see the job to completion without being hounded. Jean Joh is absolutely one of those rare professionals. Watching her do her work for our family has been a real pleasure and the outcome is perfect. Thank you so very much for all of your hard work and for taking such good care of our family. You will be the one we recommend to anyone in the future!
