"Thank you, Steve. Steve has transformed my opinion of the home-buying experience, as well as a basic professional relationship with realtors in general. Having a keen insight into evaluating a good property, and positioning the seller to have some leverage in the buying process- results in total 'peace of mind' - which I never had when dealing with other realtors. Steve is honest and upfront about what my alternatives were in the buying process. From the start, he provided above and beyond availability to show me the homes I wanted. He recommended a great financial banker, contractors, and the closing attorney. Steve really handled the details behind the scenes and it all wove together in the end. I really recommend him highly to anyone looking to land their dream home! Many thanks to Steve for helping me and my husband navigate the process for exactly the property we wanted. - Buyer"

"I would highly recommend Steve Jourdain for all of your real estate needs! Not only is Steve very ethical and professional, but he is extremely knowledgeable and kept me updated every step of the way from the time I was getting my home ready for sale up until closing day! I had to move out of state during the process and Steve was always available to provide guidance via text or phone to answer any questions or concerns I had. It was a pleasure to work with Steve! - Jonanne G. "

"Steve helped guide my wife and me through our first experiences as a Buyer and a Seller and we're so grateful we chose to work with Steve. He helps us understand each step of the process, provides his honest expertise but still allows for us to make our own choices, and is always available no matter the day or time we call/text him. He has done such a great job of listening to us and what is important to us and helping us achieve those goals as both a Buyer and a Seller. He's honestly been the ideal Realtor in every single way. I highly recommend him! - Burritt M. "

"Steve has been absolutely the most important part of the real estate transaction. From nailing the price point on what we wanted for the sale of our townhouse, to the items that required pros to get the details large and small completed, he was in charge and followed through with each contractor as to price, and when the job would be completed. He knew the value of each job, and he used his vast network of contractors to sell the townhouse in 36 hours! Great working with a pro like Steve. - Seller "

"Steve was great to work with. From the very beginning, he took the time to walk me through the selling process. He had a strong sense of the market He made recommendations as to what to do to prepare for the selling process. Based on these recommendations, the house sold only after one day on the market. As I was already out of the area, Steve made sure that he kept me well-informed and was able to represent me at the closing which made it very convenient for me. From the date of sale to closing was only 21 days. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone looking to sell their home. - Seller "

"Having Steve as our agent proved to be our best decision in the process of buying a home. From the beginning he displayed excellent communication skills, breaking down each step as we went along. As first-time home buyers, we were very new to the process and Steve was extremely helpful. He also exhibited honesty and integrity, helping us find the best and financially smartest options for us. I appreciate his promptness and willingness to work around our long work hours. He responds quickly, knowledgeably, and patiently. I strongly recommend him to guide anyone through this process! We are so thankful we found him and now have the perfect home in the Brier Creek area. - Buyer "

"If you want to know great reasons to choose Steve Jourdain as your real estate agent—keep reading! Steve’s hard work and savvy assessment skills found the wonderful home that I’m so pleased with. Steve is especially outstanding in the areas of Professional Knowledge, Negotiation, and Client Service (just to name a few). As a first-time home buyer, I relied on Mr. Jourdain's years of real estate experience and his insights, which were crucial in evaluating the “big picture” of buying a home. He deftly answered my numerous questions about the homes (ranging from interior design to permits to lawn care to easements). I also learned valuable information about unfamiliar neighborhoods from him. Steve’s productive history in real estate also meant he had great contacts to call on! Steve quickly developed negotiation plans for the homes at the top of my list, and he was proactive in both creating win-win scenarios and getting everything in writing. Backed by his years of professional experience, Steve took facilitating negotiations to a whole new level, and I am impressed by the results. Steve’s lines of communication were always open and his availability for viewings was excellent. By keeping my criteria and goals for the house at the forefront, Steve upheld my interests as a client. He was professional enough to not push me to buy any house: Instead, he proved his client loyalty by seeking the right house for me at the right price in the right location. And that made all the difference! - Buyer "
