"JoAnn helped us to buy our dream house on a lake in Lakeville. Despite being in the difficult position of representing both us and the sellers, JoAnn was simply awesome to work with. She was extremely responsive, transparent and prepared us for every step in the process. We would not hesitate to work with JoAnn again in the future. Thanks a million JoAnn!!"
"Now is the time of year that we reflect and Give Thanks. On our grateful list this year is our top-notch realtor, JoAnn Drabble. We would like to give JoAnn a big, heartfelt “Thank You” for her outstanding work on both our home sale and new home purchase. We’ve worked with many realtors over the years as we’ve moved back and forth across the country, and JoAnn Drabble, with her amazing attention to detail, extensive real estate knowledge and outstanding negotiating skills is at the top of the list – by a longshot. We could sleep soundly at night knowing that JoAnn was at the helm of our Easton home sale, guiding us through every detail, always acting in our best interest, and leaving no stone unturned. We trusted JoAnn implicitly, so much so, that we put in an offer on our next home through her …SITE UNSEEN, while we were out of the country! We did this based on total trust, JoAnn’s extensive video of the property, her clear and timely overseas communication, her detailed question-asking to the selling parties, and her thorough understanding of our needs. Sure enough, we came back from our trip and Joanne had nailed it, we successfully purchased our dream house. If you are selling and/or buying a home, don’t miss the opportunity to work with JoAnn Drabble, you’ll be extremely impressed and 100+% satisfied. Thank you JoAnn Drabble!"
"We have known JoAnn for many years now and have done three real estate transactions with her over the years. We are always impressed with her professionalism, attention to detail and excellent communication! She was critical in making sure we had a strong offer and in getting it accepted on our new home and ensured a smooth closing on the sale of our existing home. We would not hesitate to use her again in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent that will get the job done."
"From the very beginning of our home buying journey, JoAnn has been reliable and knowledgeable, making this process as easy and enjoyable as possible. We truly felt like we could trust all of her opinions and suggestions when determining the home that was right for us. Additionally, she has excellent communication and follow up skills, ensuring that all parties involved in the process were informed and up to date on every step of buying our new home. If we ever had a question, she always provided a timely and detailed response, which made us feel at ease. We would recommend JoAnn to anyone looking to work with a trustworthy and motivated real estate agent who has your best interests in mind."
"JoAnn is the best realtor! She sold our home to us in North Easton, 22 years ago, and when we decided to sell that same property, she was the first realtor that we called. She is the most dedicated realtor and so easy to work with throughout the entire process. She is knowledgeable in all areas, helped us out by connecting us to contractors that were necessary, to get our house ready to list. She also makes herself immediately available for any questions or issues, along the way. We ended up having multiple offers while most were significantly above asking price! We cannot say enough about JoAnn. She made the complete process stress free!"
"JoAnn was incredible with all aspects in regards to selling my home!! She responded quickly to my questions, very knowledgeable and provided guidance along each step!! I highly recommend JoAnn Drabble as an honest, hard working real estate agent for anyone wishing to sell their home!"
"If you are looking to sell or purchase a home you can do no better than to select JoAnn Drabble as your real estate agent. Years of experience, a commitment to excellence, an extreme focus on “the customer” and a deep knowledge of not only the real estate industry but also her local real estate market are only a few of the attributes JoAnn brings to the table.
In our case we were selling a home in Massachusetts but we live in Colorado. Prior to even getting the home listed we were in need of several different contractors to do some work and JoAnn, with no guarantee of actually getting the listing, was there to provide contractor recommendations from her list of qualified contacts. Once we did list the home JoAnn took care of everything for us as well as many items that were well “above and beyond” normal expectations. JoAnn was in constant contact with us on a daily and as necessary immediate basis prior to, during and after the sale. In the course of my career I have had the opportunity to deal with many thousands of individuals and JoAnn is in the top 1% when it comes to knowledge, professionalism, execution and demeanor. Confidence instilling and an absolute joy to work with. I highly encourage you select JoAnn on your next real estate transaction."
"I worked with JoAnn to sell my condo in Boston. She was professional, knowledgeable, and motivated to sell my property in a timely fashion. I always knew I could call, email or text her with any questions or concerns and be heard. Her communication was always a top priority and to make sure I understood every part of the process. I would recommend JoAnn as a broker/agent to anyone looking to for someone honest, knowledgable and trustworthy."
"10 years ago Joann helped me buy my first home. A beautiful condo which I could call my own! While living out of state and working locally, she knew how tight my time was and how eager I was to find the right place to call home. She was so accommodating with my schedule and booked multiple showings during my one hour lunch break or right when I got off work. After only a few weeks, we found the one. With all of her years experience and expertise, she helped me prepare my offer and they accepted! Fast forward ten years and my family of one has grown to a family of four and the condo no longer suited our needs. So on the hunt we went! We were in contact on a daily basis and she was readily available to help us narrow down our search and find out more information on listings. Every time I sent her a new listing I was interested in, she would respond within an hour or two with either a scheduled showing or information about the property that she knew would lead to us passing on a home showing. She was incredibly responsive, knew what we wanted and didn’t want, and always managed to know something about the properties that wasn’t listed, like it being on a busy street or not in a neighborhood. After 2 months of showings and a few declined offers, she suggested we take a look at this one home that might just fit our needs perfectly. We loved it! While a bit over our budget, we knew it was the one. It checked almost all the boxes and the layout, the neighborhood, the town, and the bones of the home were exactly what we wanted. Joann assisted us with preparing our offer and ended up getting the home for asking price and closed in a month! She is now working on getting the condo sold. First open house and we had multiple offers which she helped me sift through and talked pros and cons of all. We are closing less than 3 weeks after accepting the offer! If anyone is looking to buy or sell, I strongly recommend Joann! She’s in tune with your needs, is so knowledgeable of the area (we were in south shore area), makes you feel like you’re her only client, and can help you navigate unfamiliar waters if you happen to be a first time home buyer like I was. I will forever be grateful for everything Joann has done for me over the years."

From the beginning, JoAnn was the consummate professional, from discussing pricing to helping us line up the right legal assistance, the entire process was seamless. JoAnn was responsive to all our inquiries, and routinely checked in with us during the listing and negotiation process. We highly recommend her for both selling your property and also searching for your next home. She truly is outstanding and will not disappoint!"
"JoAnn expertly guided me through the process of selling a home. Not only is she an outstanding business person, she understands people. Her years of experience have given her the skills to navigate clients through what can be an emotional undertaking, without losing a beat on making the best deal. I honestly believe that without JoAnn's enthusiasm, energy, and always kind demeanor, selling the house would have been a markedly longer endeavor. Thank you JoAnn! You make great things happen."
"JoAnn is the utmost of professionalism. This was our first house we sold with JoAnn. She is very detail oriented and walked us through the entire process of selling home. We received offers directly from open houses she conducted. The entire process took less than a full month due to her persistence and contacts within the real estate industry. JoAnn also makes you feel very comfortable and answers questions no matter what they may be. We would recommend JoAnn to anyone trying to sell or buy a home."
"JoAnn was highly recommended to me. I was dealing with a challenging estate sale. Boy was JoAnn the girl for me. She was highly knowledgeable, knew her stuff and went above and beyond! She kept me updated through the whole process! I would highly recommend JoAnn to everyone."
"JoAnn was the first agent we used 10 years ago to buy our first home... when it was time to sell we went back to her again. She responded to us right away and came over within a day to start the process. She is extremely driven and professional. She sold our home in less than 2 days with multiple offers. Her open house was leaps and bounds above others we have visited (and we’ve seen a lot). She made sure she could answer every question a customer could have and also provided a professionally done pamphlet with tons of information. I would recommend JoAnn to anyone and just meeting her you’ll be sure you made the right choice!"
"As first time home sellers, we required someone who knew their business, and could guide us through the process. After being with another realtor for three months, with no offers, we called JoAnn who had previously sold another home in our neighborhood. JoAnn came into our home, assured us she would sell our house, and within three weeks we received an offer which resulted in a sale. Through the whole process JoAnn answered all our questions, which were many. If we called or sent a text, within minutes, we had a reply. She was relentless in pursuing the sale of our home. JoAnn also realized the emotion of selling our home of 32 years. She eased our fears, but also got the job done. JoAnn is an expert in her field. We would highly recommend JoAnn Drabble to others."
"So after 3 months with another realtor with no offers or hints of an offer. After 3 weeks with JOANN had an offer to purchase. Joann is instant responses and knows the answers to questions both seller and buyers are asking is amazing. High energy and does what she tells you she is going to do. Thank you Joann!"
"I owned a condo with my ex and needed it sold asap. I had read a few reviews of JoAnn and gave her a call. She was quick to respond, meet, and get the place on the market. She is extremely pleasant, and dedicated to her work. The condo was sold in "as is" condition in only about 2 months, even with a buyer who fell through. I couldn't have been happier choosing JoAnn, she was amazing. Thank you."
"JoAnn is a very professional realtor with so much knowledge. Her integrity and honesty is very refreshing. Starting with sitting and talking about what we were looking for and the professional pictures of our house she never once made us feel doubtful or insecure about trusting her. She is friendly and outgoing and full of energy. JoAnn made it very easy and sold within a week with three offers above asking price. A wonderful person through and through."
" 'I'm on it!' One of JoAnn's favorite tag lines... which became music to our ears! JoAnn walked in our door with a big smile, loads of well earned self-confidence and the experience necessary to ensure a smooth sale. Using her paralegal background, JoAnn came to our first meet and greet prepared with deeds and documents and was able to grasp and further explain a tricky, yet straightforward, land situation in simple terms. Photos were taken the morning after Christmas... in the dead of winter... yet the photos showcased the natural light, warmth and beauty of both the interior and exterior of our home, as well as highlighting the natural beauty and potential of our yard come spring. JoAnn kept us well informed in real-time as the sale unfolded and was quick to answer questions and to respond to any communication. All parties were always copied and kept within that Buyer/Seller loop! It was a pleasure to do business with JoAnn and her team and we highly recommend her to you! Thanks again, Joyce and Eric"

Through her experience and expertise she guided me to find my new happy place. I highly recommend JoAnn to anyone who is buying or selling a house."
"My brothers and I decided to look for a real estate professional through the internet to sell our condo. We found JoAnn Drabble. JoAnn streamlined the process for us knowing our busy schedules by implementing DocuSign for us. Utilizing this electronic signature program was super efficient throughout the selling process. Utilizing, "Short Message Service" and e-mails, it was more exciting to be involved instead of actual driving to her office each time we needed to communicate with her. By the time we hired JoAnn to the time we sold the condo was one week! My brothers and I were extremely satisfied. JoAnn is very competent and expeditiously can do all her intended work. We recommend JoAnn to anyone wanting to hire her services."
"We found working with JoAnn Drabble to be absolutely a positive factor in getting and having the whole deal selling our home and moving forward with our plans in our life. JoAnn is got it together and is on top of all task and needs to get it done correctly and in a timely manner for your goals / needs. She has all the contacts needed in her field. I / we couldn't have picked a better person to work with to get our house sold and FOR our asking price!!!! You need to just talk to her and see for yourself ... She is the person for the job. Do yourself a favor and call JoAnn Drabble and setup a time to review your needs and I believe you will see for yourself, she's the person to do the job. Brian and Cindy W. P.s I/ we will be contacting JoAnn Drabble again to sell other properties when we are ready to move them."

"JoAnn has sold 2 houses for us. She is extremely successful in her real estate career as she knows exactly how to market properties for her clients. From the initial meeting to discuss the listing to the final closing of the property, JoAnn works diligently to make the sale. We have been completely satisfied with JoAnn Drabble as our realtor."
"JoAnn Drabble is an excellent realtor and if you use her services you will not be disappointed. She was very considerate and respectful to our wishes in regards to our expectations during showings. And during the sale process she took care of everything from start to finish. She is very thorough. The sale of our home went flawlessly with a 30-day close. I would highly recommend her."
"Being first-time home buyers, it was obvious that we were clueless with what steps to take when purchasing our first home. Thankfully, we had JoAnn to guide us every step of the way from touring houses up through even after our closing! To say she is a hard-worker is an understatement, and she is definitely an advocate for her clients. I cannot recommend JoAnn enough to anyone I know who is in the process of buying or selling a home, and my husband and I are looking forward to working with JoAnn again when the time comes to purchase our next home in the future."
"JoAnn helped us sell our home in three days! She is extremely knowledgeable and patient. She was with us every step of the way. Always took the time to explain the process and was ready to assist morning, noon and even night. She has an amazing reputation throughout the real estate community and is able to handle any situation with poise and grace. We wholeheartedly recommend JoAnn Drabble to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."
"After getting married, my wife and I decided it was the time to buy our first home. We were referred to JoAnn from close family who had a wonderful time working with her. As a young couple that had very little knowledge of the home buying process JoAnn explained everything until we fully understood what was going on before moving on to the next step. JoAnn was extremely patient with us and seemed to be always in contact with us via phone or email. There was a slight issue the night we moved in where a water pipe burst from the cold. I immediately called JoAnn and she had the seller over the next day to evaluate and make repairs on the water damaged section. I would highly recommend JoAnn to anyone buying or selling a home. We plan to work with her again in the future."
"My husband and I recently decided to sell our first home. We hired JoAnn as she came HIGHLY recommended from 3 different close friends . It was the best decision we made in the entire process of selling our home. She is extremely organized, professional and kindhearted. She was understanding that it was an emotional process for us and was just so helpful and supportive all along the way. She handled every detail there was and went above and beyond for us to make sure everything went smoothly. We hope we will be in our new home for years to come but if we need to sell again JoAnn will definitely be our realtor again. We would recommend JoAnn to anyone and everyone possible."
"My husband and I recently bought our first home, and JoAnn came very highly recommended from our mortgage broker. From my first communication with JoAnn, I could tell that the process would go smoothly -- and it definitely did! As this was the first time that either my husband or I had gone through the home-buying process, we had no idea what to expect or how to navigate the real estate landscape. JoAnn has a wealth of knowledge and understanding of the towns that we were looking to buy in, and gave us sound and honest advice on properties and neighborhoods in these towns. Having this knowledge was incredibly helpful when we were honing in on the areas that we wanted (or did not want) to be in.
Having JoAnn's experience was incredibly helpful throughout this process, especially when it came to explaining the offer process, as well as what we needed to do to have our ducks in a row! After seeing just five or six homes, we were ready to make an offer on the perfect home for us, JoAnn guided us through the offer, and final/best offer process, whether that meant being on the phone with us after hours on nights and weekends. With her guidance, we got the best first home that we could have ever imagined, and used her recommended services for the inspection and beyond -- all of which went seamlessly! We cannot recommend JoAnn enough! She is patient, understanding, and truly recognized what we were looking for in our first home. She even recognized after seeing just one house that an updated kitchen was important to me, and having a realtor understand those details without having to ask, felt amazing.
JoAnn, we cannot thank you enough for helping us to find, and purchase our first home!!
"If you are looking to sell or purchase a house, JoAnn is definitely the realtor for you! With her experience and knowledge, the process could not have been easier. She is straight to the point and knows what it takes to get the job done, all while further educating her clients to assist in their future purchase or sale. Communication was excellent and she always took the initiative to ensure things were being completed as needed and on time. All of her contacts to assist in the process were top notch and exemplified the same traits that she attained in helping through this process. This was our first home sale and I will most definitely reach out to her down the road if the chance arises."
"JoAnn has assisted us in three real estate transactions, and we chose her again for the fourth one without hesitation. JoAnn has many great attributes that make her our choice. Having worked with other realtors in the past, she stands out for her conscientiousness, prompt and precise communication style, and attention to every detail throughout the real estate transaction. She is also highly professional and dependable. These have proved to be essential attributes for smooth and successful real estate sales and purchases, and we highly recommend JoAnn."
"JoAnn and I first met when I was in the middle of a divorce and needed to sell my home. Not only did she help me during a difficult time but got me multiple over ask offers in a weeks time. From there she built a great relationship with me buying and selling my next 3 homes with her. She is always working for her client..day and night. I have never met a harder working agent who does everything to make the process seamless and get make sure the job gets done! I bought and sold multiple homes in Raynham Massachusetts and every time she checked every box for me. I highly recommend her as one of the top agents in the state."
"JoAnn Drabble is the Best Realtor! I’ve boughtand sold 3 homes in the past and she’s the BEST! Her expertise, extensive knowledge & negotiating skills are exceptional. She sold our home at a price we had hoped for. Most important: JoAnn is honest. Highly recommend her!"
"My experience with JoAnn was delightful. She was always there when I needed to ask questions. She was patient and knowledgeable with her answers. She went above and beyond when something needed to be done whether it was helping out with shopping for smoke alarms or checking on levels in the oil tank. (I was selling a house in an estate and not living in it) She was very proactive , looked ahead to see potential problems and smoothed the road. My situation was a complicated one and she calmed my nerves when things got edgy. Friendly and reliable. JoAnn has my highest recommendation."
"JoAnn helped us sell our house for $10,000 above the asking price. She then helped us negotiate building our new home and always gave the best advise. She is a true professional and great person."
