My name is Brent McKissick. I sold a house up on the east bench in Ogden, 4 bedroom, 2 bath, sitting on 1/3 of an acre. I had a great experience with Joel & Ann. Everything was very smooth; they took care of everything for me. All I had to do was wait for a phone call and respond back with whatever information was needed. So it simplified my part of the process.
I interviewed 3 agents. I went with Ann & Joel for their marketing plan, their ability to really push the house. The other 2 agents that I talked to really couldn’t give me any information about what their long term goals were and how they were going to sell the house or what their process was on how to market it. One of the agents being the agent I used to buy the house with, she just kind of told me that there would be a sign in the yard, posted on their internet site, but no real pushes.
Within the first week of hiring Ann & Joel we had an open house, we had 11 families come through to look at the house, so great turn out. The asking price on the house was $175k. We had a family come through and loved the house. They gave me full asking offer, and was willing to pay for all closing costs, pay for the home warrantee, and again it was just very easy. Ann & Joel just simplified everything in the process so I just had to sign paperwork and walk away.
I don’t know, it was just so easy, I wouldn’t know how to sell a house because you guys just took care of everything so much for me. How you guys took the photos of the house, I mean it was far and above everyone else’s.

Ann and Joel really made it work! We wanted to buy and sell – be able to sell ours and move into a new one and they were able to schedule it and make it work out just right. We sold and bought at the same time!
Ann always got back to me really quickly on all of my many questions.
Before we officially started looking for a house, we met with a Realtor and they didn’t really engage with us very much or ask questions about what we are looking for just kind of sat around while we looked at a house. It was nice to actually have some input.
Ann and Joel listened to us about what we wanted in a home and didn’t show us homes that we wouldn’t be interested in. Ann was really good to go around with us and she pointed out things in the home we might like and we might not like. That was really good to have another pair of eyes and that she was able to find these things for us.

And so we sold the house for more than what we were asking for it. That was actually a really good thing for us. We had our asking price at $148,500 and we sold it for $152,000. Joel helped me through the steps of how to go about countering and stuff for some of the things they wanted for some of the things we wanted. We were able to end up getting more for it.
Before we sold the home, we actually had a different realtor, who, I’ll tell you the experience between them/that realtor and you guys was actually a lot different. I mean you guys were communicating with us all the time. I mean Charity always knew what was going on when people were coming and stuff, if people would come, and when they actually they did come. I mean before, there was actually somebody in our house and we really didn’t know what was going on. It kind of was weird you know.
The fact that that realtor actually never knew anything or have any feedback from the people. It was bad on that part where you guys did a really good job with that. We felt really informed like there was good communication between you guys and us. We had a lot more showings with you guys were our realtor vs the other people too. Over there we had maybe (we had Coldwell Banker before) and we had maybe 1 showing every 2 weeks. And we had you guys we had like 2 or 3 showings every day. And we had access to all of that information too – you guys were sending emails and stuff and I’d be able to see how many people were in my home, what people’s feedback was, what people thought about the price and condition of the home.
I’m excited to have it sold! It’s actually a good feeling, you know, to get out, and re-explore the world.

My name is Kristine and I had a home in Plain City Utah. The marketing I received from Joel and Ann was remarkably different than the lack of marketing I received from a prior company. When I Googled it or any type of search in input, my home was always listed on the front page.
The helicopter view, the pictures that were taken were so professional compared to the little snapshots that were taken by the phones of the prior agent. There was a remarkable difference with the amount of activity that I had with the prior REALTOR at the same price than with Joel and Ann at the same price. The prior REALTOR would contact me with a showing; it was random. Sometimes it was once every two weeks, I might have a showing, twice a week, or there are times that it was three weeks in between showings. The first week, I think I had 4 showings and I have an offer within 2 weeks.
I was treated like I was a priority. If I ever have a question, I knew that if I would contact either Joel or Ann, I would get an immediate answer and I am talking probably within 15 minutes or less I always had an answer; and that was totally night and day different than my prior realtor. All of the electronic signing of the documents; you don’t have to go in to the offices or leaving homes or anything like that.
I just like your guys’ service. I mean like I said I felt like I was a customer and you were here to serve me. The questions that I would probably ask you already knew the answer for, and that’s not the experience that I had before.

My name is Patty and we had some property in Eden, Utah. Our experience with Joel and Ann was just incredible. We’re just not used to have real estate agents pay as much attention to us as they did. Emails and phone calls, they stayed in constant communication with us. They went over and beyond the call of duty. We couldn’t have asked for better marketing and pictures of what was done. Ann and Joel ended up selling our property quicker than we ever dreamed possible. I couldn’t be more pleased with the job they did and the speed at which they did it in. We truly were overwhelmed with the amount of time and effort you guys put in to helping us sell that lot. You guys were awesome and you do your job very well.

Working with you guys has been fantastic. Selling the house has been wild but you guys guided us and navigated us through that really well because we didn’t know what it was going to take. Definitely uneducated in the real estate world. So many unexpected situations come up where we have no experience and our families have no experience but you guys totally knew how.
You know we ended up settling on a buyer who was coming in unrepresented and you guys totally picked up their slack because they didn’t know what they are doing. Right. So you all took care of all of us. And I don’t think either one of us ever felt pressured to make a decision or do something that made us comfortable because of you guys, which are things that we’ve heard from other realtors. So that was really good! No, I think it’s really fun working with you guys and getting to know you.
Electronic signatures was super awesome! When we bought the house that we bought, it was all by hand. You got to print it, sign it, scan it, and return it. Yeah, and just click, click, click, click, click and it was done! I really liked the weekly updates when we have showings happen and the feedback forms. You guys kept that shared document of the feedback forms so we were able to go and look at that and see what people were saying. I mean a lot of it was kind of out of our control but anything that people mentioned that we could have changed, we tried to implement that.
I know you guys would go and call REALTORS to get the feedback ‘cause not everyone just leaves it so that was really cool. It is definitely complicated but I think you guys made it easy for us. Yeah! Exactly! We like that! Which is funny because you know Joel was asking us if we would think about doing for sale by owner or something like that, I said no. This is something where I intent to hire an expert because I’m not qualified to do this. Right, or maybe I could learn if I took a couple of years or how long it’ll take to learn. Yeah, we really don’t have the desire to do that. No, uh-uh. We like our own jobs. It’s nice working with people who really knew what was going on.

VIDEO: How to Interview Realtor in Syracuse Utah

Video Transcript
I am Scott Heiner. This is my wife Katherine, or Kathy, and we lived in Syracuse for 18 years. And the reason we sold the house was so that we could buy my parent’s home in Morgan.
I actually saw Joel and Ann on Facebook for the first time, and it actually just had a thing about to, if you’re wondering what the value of your house is. We weren’t quite ready to list it yet, but we were interested in interviewing Joel and Ann, and they asked to see if they were someone that we would be interested in working with, and in visiting with them we were really impressed. The other agent that we were talking to, he wasn’t very good at following up. He really, I think my guess is that he would have listed the house and kind of forgot about it. I don’t think he would have followed through and, you know, really worked hard on getting the house sold.
So that’s really, I think one of the main reasons we went with Joel and Ann is because we really felt like we’d have the follow up and feedback that we needed, and I think that’s an important part of selling a home is we never wondered where we were at or what, when it was shown. When the house was shown, they were very good at giving us feedback as fast as they could, and a lot of times, you know, within hours.
I liked that the marketing was really up-to-date technologically, you know, they put a lot of things out on the Internet, and Facebook.
In addition to the aerial shots that they had, and the walk through video, they had professional photography, and I think that made a big difference in how the house presented itself on the Internet. Now, our first, the first weekend that we were listed, the first week, we had like quite a few showings the first week, and it was really impressive, and it took us only two months to sell the house to the day.
We actually had our first offer within a week. They were in constant contact, and we knew that we could contact them anytime of the day or night. We did sometimes. I don’t have any complaints whatsoever. I was highly impressed with Joel and Ann. I would be delighted to recommend them to anybody else that was looking to sell their house, and we were very happy with their performance, and with the way that they marketed our home.

I loved working with Ann & Joel at Northern Utah Home Team. They were fantastic and I noticed right away one unique thing that set them apart was the elevated shot that they did on the home for the listing. I love that! Very different but it gave a very unique perspective on the home.
I love working with them through the transaction of the purchase. They were very on the ball They had everything together and coordinated everything smoothly. We were able to close early and have the transaction ready to go and everything went well.
It’s very refreshing to have agents very on top of their game and know what’s needed ahead of time and have phone calls placed and things ready to go. When everyone can work together things go smoothly. So it’s great!
