Hannah Walker was an amazing realtor! She was attentive to our needs and wants. She responded quickly and was very knowledgeable about the Frankfort area. As first time home buyers she really put us at ease with the process. I really appreciated that she took the time to answer all our questions (and we had a ton of questions). Her networking was also amazing; when she couldnt answer a question, she was able to put us in touch with someone who could. 10 out of 10, I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.

Joe was great to work with in the selling of my Mothers house. He offered valuable advice on prepping the property. Joe posted her house on Thursday and we signed the contract 2 days later for more then we were asking. Joe was very responsive to any texts and calls I had for him. He also provided appropriate updates. All the paperwork was electronic and went very smoothly. Joe is very professional and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone wanting to sell their house.

Watch out for heather very very sneaky. She went behind my agents back as well as my back and contacted my lender personally and posed as if she were my agent! This is a very unprofessional way to run a business

We've worked with Joe Johnson to buy two houses and sell one. Throughout each process we've found him to be very professional and very knowledgable. We would happily recommend him to our friends and family, and have done so repeatedly. In our experience with several realtors over the years, it's our opinion you can't do better than Joe!
