Recommendations from LinkedIn
I have had many wonderful clients over the years and recently began asking if they would go to LinkedIn and leave a recommendation. Their comments are cut and pasted here. Many thanks to all for the kind words! They are much appreciated. Most recent first.

What first led us to Judy was her self-maintained Houston market web-site, bulging at the seams with neighborhood data including school(s) and ratings, crime statistics, market conditions by zip codes, e-mail alerts for new listings, flood plans, etc... Our first meeting, in hindsight, wasn't her trying to sell us on her services, but an explanation of her philosophy towards finding and purchasing a new house. This genuineness was an intregral part for us throughout the entire process, and in trusting Judy to lead us through un-navigated waters. When we found an A+ house, in an A+ neighborhood, Judy was able to understand and validate our emotional attachment to the house with her unbiased opinion; evaluating the house with her own comp analysis, school information, etc... We would not be in this home today but for Judy's judgment of the market and guidance of immediate steps to secure it. Including hand delivering the offer to the seller's agent at 9:45 PM, knowing there would be multiple offers by the next day when it was to hit the market. I'm sure you can name businesses, restaurants, and people that provided an experience and service beyond definition you still remember today. Judy did that for us.

I just moved to Houston to start my residency program and was looking to buy my first home with my wife. When I saw the website Judy put together, I realized that she is not just an average real estate agent. Her website provides all the tools necessary to become a well informed house buyer. With her experience and organized approach she really finds the best homes the market has to offer. We are very happy with our first home. There were certainly difficulties, but Judy was always there to advise us even on the weekends. She would always pick up the phone calls and be available to answer my questions and concerns.

My wife and I recently worked with Judy to successfully find a new home in Houston, TX. Her experience and deep knowledge of the real estate market were evident right from the start. Her website is outstanding, well-maintained, and informative. She is analytical and offers opinions that are reasoned, thoughtful, and fair. At every turn, we always felt that she advocated effectively for our interests. Importantly, she is extremely responsive by email and phone and equipped to handle a fast-moving market. If you are in the market for a home in Houston, I would recommend calling Judy first.

My husband and I hired Judy to help us find our recent home. Judy is detail-oriented, dependable, and has exquisite knowledge of the home-buying process and the Houston real estate market. She is very responsive by email and telephone and spent long hours with us on several weekends to help us find our home. It was a comfort to have Judy's expertise and advice during the stressful home-buying process. I highly recommend Judy to any perspective homebuyers. She will always be one step ahead of you! I would definitely use her services again.

Judy helped us found the house we currently lives in back in 2007. Having just relocated to Houston from Chicago, and never owned a house before (previously owned high-rise condo), Judy did a fantastic job helping us narrow down what we really want as well as avoiding many of the pitfalls that come with being 'first-time homeowner' in a city we were relatively new to. We have been very happy with Judy's helps and definitely recommend her buyer's agent service.

Honestly, the best Agent I've ever had. I've worked with many, and she's the best. My favorite of Judy's many skills is her ability to forecast what a property will sell for (and when) after she walks through it. I thick-headedly ignored her abilities for almost a year while trying to relocate to Houston from Pennsylvania. Once I finally submitted to her exprtise, I had the house I wanted for the right price. No buyer's remorse. I currently have her sweeping the area for investment properties. I'm a happy repeat customer.

Judy is unparalled in her knowledge and follow through when it comes to purchasing real estate in the West University area. From impressive quantitative comparables to subjective expertise, Judy brings more knowledge of the West University area than you can find in other brokerage firms. On top of that, Judy is incredibly personable, punctual, and efficient. Judy will ensure that you have a delightful purchasing experience!

Judy is a wonderful real-estate agent. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and really focused in on places that were a good fit for me. I was new to Houston and didn't know the area at all. She immediately figured out what neighborhood I would like best (she was right, I loved living in Montrose). I was still living in a different state when the purchase went through and she helped me handle many of the details online or through the mail. The purchase went extremely smoothly and I am sure she had a lot to do with it. I eventually purchased a lovely condominium in which I lived happily for four years until I left Houston. I have recommended her to friends and colleagues who are new to the area and looking for condominiums or houses.

Working with Judy set the bar for other real estate agents. Not only was she very open and honest about the Houston market but her evaluation of potential homes help guide us into the correct purchase. My husband devoured the information in the spreadsheets and was very comfortable making an offer on our future home. As a very pregnant home buyer with special needs, Judy was exceptionally accommodating -- we saw 15 houses in one day! If only she would consider being a seller's agent -- she would be perfect!”

We have used Judy on the purchase of three different houses in the last 12 years, and have been very pleased with her work. She was doing online photo work on her own website long before HAR even existed, and she does high quality, very specific comp analysis to help the buyer discover "value" in both up markets and down. Our latest purchase was for some $200,000 below the ask and $400,000 below the original list for a West U Parade of Homes brand new, extremely nice (if perhaps overpriced!) house. She is trustworthy, well connected, and a consummate professional. I'd highly recommend using her as a buyer's agent for anyone looking at houses in Houston (and especially West U).
