I was trying to get into a house that was bigger and so we had to rent this out and we were losing money and so this (selling the house) has been phenomenal for us.
Once we’ve found Joel & Ann, this has been awesome. We loved the attention to detail and just the communication with us.
You got two competing offers. You can’t do better than that. No, no. Multiple offers! We initially were just going to take one round and just go with it and then after talking to you and Joel , we decided to do a competition and ended up earning us our original asking price which has been huge. So your advice and counsel was great.
So the big difference between you guys and other agents for us was that it felt like that everyone else just threw us on the MLS. That’s all that they did. They put you on the MLS, throw you on Zillow and KSL and move on. You never talked to them; I mean we got no communication, no feedback.
Yeah, we noticed the difference I think immediately with Joel as he went through the presentation of how you would market the property, all the different points that you would use to try and find buyers. The communication is the key that we would able to see what was going on. What marketing was happening, how many hits we were getting. If you had talked to anyone I knew that immediately. I mean those were just huge helps.
I liked how many different things you could do to put our house out there so people could see it and want to look through it so I think that was the first step. Before It’s there but no one knew about it I guess.
Just the little details the Google docs, the aerial photo, and the video of the property. I saw the video and I wanted to buy it.
I think the fact that you’ve asked that question is just a testimony to how good of a realtor that you are. I don’t think that you guys could have done anything differently. I think it was wonderful. It was wonderful from the beginning to end.
I’d gotten to a point that we’ve been through enough realtors so in the beginning I was hesitant and leery of any realtor to be honest with you. I’d got to the point where I didn’t trust any of them. And so I think, as much as I liked the presentation I still had that bad taste in my mouth. Here we go again- Hopefully this is going to be different. Hopefully they’ll actually follow through on their promises. And now being on the back end of it, you guys lived up to every promise and exceeded. And we had yet to have a realtor even fulfill the basic promises.
Well, congratulations and enjoy your life without a condo to worry about. (Yeah!)

Hi, my name is Paul Dickamore and we recently used Joel and Ann Zieve to sell a home.
For us initially had it listed with a flat fee realtor, the challenge that we faced is that we got no support. We received an offer that we accepted at full price. The underwriter found some difficulties in the application and they passed the closing date and so we pulled it and got talking and decided to engage with some realtors that would offer us all the services and Joel and Ann’s name was mentioned and they have a great reputation so we selected them.
They shared with us before we signed the paperwork what they would do in the way of marketing the property. We were very impressed. They shared with us a book that they authored. They made a lot of really neat suggestions and we actually raised the listing price from what it previously been listed at their suggestion by about five percent. We felt like we would end up with a bidding war with the house with the marketing that they were going to do.
We received seven offers. The offer that they suggested that we accept was substantially over the asking price by like fifteen percent. And we ended up netting more after all the fees than we would have getting full price prior to paying any fees on the first attempt to sell one home.
We have loved working with Joel and Ann. Their communication has been outstanding their professionalism is unbelievable and their marketing skills are incredible as well. I would highly recommend if you’re considering listing your home that you consider Joel and Ann Zieve as your real estate professionals and list with them.
The knowledge you had of the selling process and what you anticipated would happen was right on track and you brought forth points that we never would have thought of. Your service and your communication is just outstanding and your market knowledge and obviously your experience and buying selling numberless properties over your career was evident in everything that you did.

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.

My name’s Tammy Gentry. My husband and I planned a move to Twin Falls on account of him getting a job. We had it listed with a previous realtor for several months and we had had one offer that fell through and the rest of the time hardly anything. It was about eight thousand less than what we had listed it for. They wanted us to pay the closing costs.

With Joel and Ann the offers that we received we were able to do the highest and best and we were able to them negotiated between three offers and ended up getting what we were asking and not having to pay closing costs. We needless to say in a matter of days now sold our home.

Ann came and talked to us about what we can do to make the house better for showing. This was very helpful because we didn’t get that from the previous realtor. The marketing that Ann and Joel do is exceptional we feel like that because of that and the way they presented our home, and the listing, the description of our home, is basically what helped sell it also. When we saw the pictures that were posted with our listings both my husband and I thought wow this doesn’t even look like our house. And just the way they photographed and they had the professional photographer come in and take the photos. The video that Ann does and she does a walk through so that you actually have a feel for the way the house flows before you even really come to see it was very impressive. The aerial shots of the home showing the whole property that you’d be purchasing was actually impressive too because the house actually looks good from a higher point of view.

They were there when they said they were going to be, they texted when we were expecting it, and everything was just perfect!

So my husband and I are also dog lovers – they also have a contribution that they give you a choice to take four percent of their earnings and contribute to a no kill shelter of our choice which meant a lot to us because we had to put our dog down a year ago and it’s just kind of nice to know the there’s help out there for other people who need companionship and I just feel like we had a more positive experience and almost feel like we could just do it again through them. So I guess that’s it!
