"Now that we've settled into our new lives here on the East Coast, Mie and I just wanted to give you a HUGE thank-you for all the hard work you put in to sell our townhouse in South San Francisco! It's certainly no exaggeration to say that we couldn't have made it out here without your help! We also want to thank you for taking us by the hand giving us the benefit of your expert assistance and advice throughout every step of the process. Your suggestions for getting the house prepped to show were absolutely invaluable, and you did a great job getting our listing out and ensuring that we had a big crowd (over 60 people!) ready and waiting to attend our open house. And of course, you did a tremendous job getting our house sold as quickly as we had hoped, for a price that was a great deal more than we had expected! You are a terrific real estate agent and a consummate professional - you made our sale easy, you certainly made it profitable, and your enthusiasm even made it fun! Both Mie and I are thrilled that you were our agent, and even more, we're proud that you've become our friend. Thanks again, and keep in touch! "
-ANDREW & MIE LEE

"I am writing this letter to express how overwhelmingly pleased I and my family are with the services provided by Jo-Ann De Rewenda. You see, we met Jo-Ann at an open house last year while simply weekend "browsing" through properties in Brisbane, California. But when the house we'd been renting for 6 years was suddenly sold and the new owner served us with an eviction, a quick call to Jo-Ann De Rewenda got us a list of three properties for sale within the hour! Jo-Ann was always persistent, courteous, and pleasant at every opportunity possible. When the buyer's market of San Francisco quickly backslid into a viscous sellers' market, Jo-Ann reassured us that the home of our dreams was just around the next corner. She was right! With her persistence and personal attention, we finally landed the perfect home in our beloved home town of San Francisco. Her confidence and tenacity sustained us through an often very stressful process."

"This letter is to say thanks for all your efforts in selling my mother's home in South San Francisco as part of my estate management duties. I selected you over 5 other Real Estate firms I interviewed based on your professionalism and customer focus. You didn't disappoint me as you handled many of the small details prior to and during the real estate listing. Overall it was a satisfactory experience and I would recommend you again to anyone who would ask for a reference."
-Kenneth D. Pietrelli

"Carol and I want to thank you very much for providing us with the most exemplary assistance in the purchase of our new home. Buying a home is stressful enough but your extraordinary professionalism reduced this to a very minimum. You were very patient and, at our request, arranged several appointments and made several visits with us to the property to satisfy our concerns with regard to our decision making. You took the time to explain each document to our satisfaction and answered whatever questions we had before signing these documents. If the occasion arises where we know of someone looking for a realtor to represent him, we would definitely have you as referral."
-Kwok-Kwong and Carolyn Y. Ng

"I just wanted to let you know not only of the great success Jo-Ann has accomplished, but the professionalism and care that she exhibits to her clients. Many times awards are given to the agents and they are not shared with spouses, family or friends. These awards and the hard work should not go unrecognized."
-Joan La Macchia
Managing Broker

"Thank you so much for your valuable and professional assistance in the purchase of my very first home! Without you, I truly believe that I would still be living out of my office instead of my new townhouse. Your guidance and helpful advice allowed me to find a home within a reasonable time period and for a price that I thought was extremely fair.
I like the fact that you didn't attempt to "pawn" a home off on me just to make a quick sale. I feel that I saw everything that I wanted to see out there and I made an informed decision.
One of the most important, and sometimes most forgotten factor, was that you made this whole process fun.
Jo-Ann, thank you so much for being there and assisting me in the purchase of my first home. I look forward to working with you again."
-Mitri Hanania
Attorney-at-Law

"A home we owned was recently sold by your sales agent, Jo-Ann De Rewenda. She handled every detail in the most meticulous manner, having sold the home within three weeks of listing it. Since we do not live in the area, she even made certain that the landscaping was always watered. I would highly recommend her to others as she is a very efficient and detail conscious agent."
-Diane L. Fafoutis

"We want to say thank you for everything you did for us. You kept us well informed each step of the way. We were fortunate to have you represent us and our home up and above board, it was very reassuring to know that you took care of all the details for us properly.We will keep in touch, and always think of you as a true friend."
-Bruno and Lorraine

"Buying a house isn't as easy as we imagined it would be. Certainly, it is an experience to remember. You have assisted us in looking for the right house. You were able to find prospective houses that fitted our taste and lifestyle. You have explained to us everything we were supposed to know about buying our house. You were thorough with the paper works. You assisted us in all the negotiations.
Thank you so much for being ever so patient. Thank you for making our dreams a reality. Definitely, we will be recommending you, should any of our friends need an agent. Congratulations on a job well done. Keep up the good work. Coldwell Banker should be proud to have you aboard the company."
-Dang Family

"Ginny and I are still unpacking stuff and trying to organize everything, but we wanted to thank you once again. We really appreciated your help and cooperation in the sale of our house. Your clear, informative manner made it easier for us to understand the tangle of inspection reports and real-estate paperwork. Your efforts the last couple of days before we moved, chasing the contractor down, getting the inspector to sign, driving me to deliver some clothes, show your caring concern for what the seller is going through. Jo-Ann, we are so grateful for what you did for us. You are a real friend."
- Dave and Ginny Stevens

"I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you for all the work that you did for me in the sale of my mother's home in South San Francisco. You were truly a professional and representative of the quality sales associate and brokers to which the Coldwell Banker name reflects. I was especially thankful for the personal attention you gave to my eighty-year old mother who needed that extra sensitivity due to the vested emotional interests with the property. I have no reservations in recommending you to business associates, local Realtors or friends who may need of such services in the San Francisco Peninsula."
-Robert M. DaPrato, M.A.

"Boy did Chris and I get lucky! We just happened to wander into the office in the day you were covering and we truly think we found the best real estate agent on the Peninsula!
Specifically, we appreciated your hard work, patience and honesty.
Chris and I are enjoying our house very much and we look forward to making happy memories here. Without hesitation, Chris and I definitely look forward to having you guide us through our next real estate mare!"
-Chris and Carrie Daniel
