Seller reviewFortunately, we have known Sharon Rhoades for a few decades having lived in DeKalb since 1980. When the time came to list our home, we thought of her and she was recommended by trusted friends. Months before listing, we asked her to view our house to suggest a marketing plan and things to do to prepare the house for sale. Each of her suggestions made sense to us. We did as many as possible which contributed to the quick sale and smooth closing. Sharon followed though with us timely and effectively while also dealing with the illness and loss of her husband, Jim, a highly respected local law enforcement officer. Sharon is a trusted friend and real estate advisor. We recommend Sharon Rhoades as highly as possible to anyone!

Sharon has a vast knowledge of the entire county and definitely does the hard work of making sure your house is priced appropriately.

Seller reviewSpoke with 3 area realtors, interviewed 2, decision to use Sharon Rhoades was pretty much immediate. She came with a great recommendation from people who do not recommend anyone without reason. We were a challenging client and Sharon guided us through everything thoroughly and professionally. She is truly a credit to her company, and was always available for clarifications, and other support. Our property was unique and pricing was a challenge. She provided background and historical information to assist us in setting our asking price. We went through a number of reductions due to interest rate challenges and market conditions. Our ultimate goal was to sell and she facilitated that effectively. She truly listened to us, truly realized what a unique home we had, and supported us completely through the showing, contracting, and closing process. She is a gem!
