"I am writing today in praise of the services of realtor JoDene Moneuse who recently sold my home on Longboat Key. From our first meeting I was aware that I was working with a knowledgeable and caring professional that I could trust to represent me and my home. We listed my cottage on February 14 and by April 3 we had not only one, but a second back up sales contract. This success was due to JoDene’s suggestions at each decision point and ultimately the need to lower the price to better respond to both potential buyers feedback concerns and the reality of the current market prices. This was not an easy sell as the home sustained extensive hurricane damage and would need a visionary buyer to be successful. JoDene understood this and ultimately found the perfect match. On a personal note, I believe she should also be commended on her compassionate support as she listened to my concerns, responded quickly to text queries and kept me updated each time she had a potential buyer. Ultimately we negotiated the contract while I was on board an Amtrak Autotrain traveling from VA to FL - a communications miracle that occurred somewhere in GA as the train moved south. It is quite a story. In summary, I chose Michael Saunders due to your reputation-and JoDene specifically at a friend’s suggestion. She is an outstanding company representative and I am very pleased with her- and your - services. "

"I want to express my pleasure and gratitude in working with JoDene Moneuse on the sale of my property. JoDene was recommended to me by a friend who had recently worked with her and bragged about how absolutely wonderful she was in selling her property. As I desired a quick sale, I wanted to make sure I chose a realtor who was professional, understood the market and would advise me on any changes I needed to make to ensure a quick sale at a good price. I chose JoDene after interviewing two other agents and selected her based on her quick assessment (with no holds barred) on what improvements I needed to make to get the best price. One realtor didn't think any improvements were necessary while another suggested more costly improvements. JoDene was right in the middle, but her confidence and immediate feedback on how to effectively market the property sold me on her. I was not disappointed. After following her recommendationsto the letter (down to the color of shower curtain) I was rewarded with 4 offers in the first week! She carefully walked me though the pros and cons of each offer before I chose a buyer. Although the financing fell through on that offer, she was able to go back to those who were previously interested and quickly came back with another great offer. At this point she had earned my complete trust so I felt confident as she steered me through the negotiations to get the exact price I wanted. JoDene (I call her Superstar (2)) understands the market and knows how to sell real estate! On top of that, she's a kind person. I look forward to working with her again in the future."
