  • Seller review
    Joe was able to walk us through the entire process so there were no surprises. His level of experience made the sale of our home a seamless, low stress transaction. It was wonderful working with such a professional.
  • Buyer review
    Joe Vitale was referred to me by a relative who worked with him before and highly recommended him. As a single person, I was intimidated heading down the road to home ownership. Joe's compassion, patience, and understanding, truly set him apart. He took the time to get to know me and exactly what I was looking for. He helped in every part of the process, and explained every step so I knew exactly what to expect. He was prompt and answered all my questions (and I asked a lot of questions). He went out of his way to provide care and support. In addition to Joe, is his team. Joe surrounds himself with other similar individuals whose compassion shows. From other colleagues at Century 21, to an excellent home inspection team, to plumbers, and other maintenance workers, Joe has made sure I was connected to the right people, and has continued to do so past closing. Not only was Joe compassionate and understanding, but he was clearly on my side, and fought for my best interests. Joe didn't just want to sell me a house, he wanted to help me find the perfect place to call home, and he did just that!
  • Buyer review
    We had a specific timeframe of when we needed to buy a house by, and Joe helped with this tremendously. Having a deadline is stressful, but he made it so much more worry-free and had us viewing houses as soon as we showed interest. With a situation that could have been streasful, he made it fun, exciting, and full of reassurance. He's truly the best, and we cannot recommend him enough!
  • Seller review
    I have worked with Joe now on multiple buying and selling adventures over the last 6 years and I cannot imagine choosing anyone else to help with this exciting process. He goes above and beyond every single time. He makes you a priority, and makes sure he explains and points out every detail to prepare you during this experience. He is your #1 advocate, always right there to provide resolution and ease. We are so thankful for his expertise and knowledge, and we will certainly always be going to him for all our home selling/buying ventures in the future!
  • Buyer review
    Joe met and exceeded all expectations. He was very accessible, professional and had great follow through.
  • Seller review
    We were referred to Joe Vitale by a close family member who had worked with him as the seller's agent for the home they purchased. We worked with Joe to sell our first house, so everything was new to us. We met with him in the fall to walk through our house and offer suggestions for fixes and staging ideas. We weren't sure if we were going to sell the upcoming spring or wait a year but he was more than happy to consult with us. At every stage of the process Joe was calm, full of good humor, and very responsive. He even came over one night after work to help us move furniture around to stage. He also took care of every detail while we were out of town at the beginning and end stages of our house being on the market. That was our experience working with Joe, in a nutshell: above and beyond! And also just very enjoyable. Joe's work is flawless! He makes everything easy, and seem easy. His experience and professionalism make every step of the process a successful one! It is so pleasant and refreshing to work with someone like him. It feels rare. We cannot recommend Joe highly enough -his professionalism, communication, attention to detail, ability to talk you down from the ledge during a highly stressful process are all five stars. Thank you, Joe!
