Jo is amazing. We relocated from a different state, and she helped us navigate all the cities in the DFW area to find the perfect location for our new home. We looked at so many houses and areas together. Her knowledge of the region is vast, and she really helped us narrow down our choices. We ended up purchasing a new build, and Jo negotiated for us with the builder, was there for all our walk throughs, and pushed the builder to fix all the mistakes along the way. Jo is smart, experienced and thorough, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home, new or existing. She was invaluable to us, and made a stressful situation much less stressful.

This was our second time buying a home. But this time we were moving from Ohio to Texas and I was in my third trimester. With all the chaos happening, Jo was the one who helped to ease our nerves. After a couple of houses, she knew exactly what we wanted before we even did! Jo has SO much knowledge from growing up in the area and being in the business, and it really showed! From the time of first seeing homes right up to the time of closing on one, she went to bat for us and made sure we were getting the best of the best and our money's worth. She called out a lot of little things that we would have glanced right over. Being new to the area, she had so many recommendations for contractors, as well as fun things to check out! My husband and I now consider her one of our favorite Texans :)

Jo was so helpful when we were buying our first house. She worked around the clock and kept us informed through the whole process. She fought for us when things got off track. After everything was said and done, she got us an amazing place!

A few words about Jo. My wife and I, (as well as my son and daughter in law) have used Jo Antovoni as our agent over the course of the past few years. She has represented us as both sellers and buyers. As a seller, she went beyond the call of duty in helping us stage and prepare the house for selling. Her suggestions regarding even the smallest of details reflected her knowledge of her many years of experience in this field. As a result we were able to sell our house quickly and at a price that exceeded our expectations.
The most endearing quality that I find truly exemplary is the fact that she really cares about her clients. It was evident early in the process that we were more than just a “sale” or another number to be added to the bottom line of her impressive accomplishments. Many of Jo’s clients are repeat clients that have used her again and again when utilizing a real estate agent. In my opinion, that speaks volumes. She listens to the desires and needs of her clients and then guides them through the process with complete ease. She effectively communicated with us throughout the entire process and even protected us from some things that we would have not known about had she not alerted us. I cannot say enough nice things about Jo and I highly recommend her if you are needing a competent, knowledgeable, agent.

From the outset of our journey to find our first home, Jo Antovoni proved to be an invaluable asset. Her dedication, professionalism, and genuine care set her apart as an exemplary real estate agent.
Jo's commitment to ensuring we understood every step of the home-buying process was evident in our first meeting. Patiently, she walked us through each detail, never hesitating to clarify or repeat explanations until we felt confident. Her thoroughness and willingness to go the extra mile made us feel supported throughout the process.
One of Jo's remarkable qualities is her attentiveness to our evolving preferences. As our ideas shifted, she adeptly adjusted her approach, curating a selection of homes that consistently aligned with our desires. Her thoughtfulness in selecting properties demonstrated a deep understanding of our needs and aspirations. Navigating a home purchase from a different state can be daunting, but Jo's seamless facilitation made it surprisingly effortless.
Utilizing technology to bridge the distance, she generously offered her time via video calls, enabling us to virtually explore potential homes. Her dedication to ensuring we had a clear understanding of each property's features was evident in these interactions.
Furthermore, when faced with challenges from a difficult home developer, Jo emerged as our steadfast advocate. Her tenacity and negotiation skills led us to a better-suited builder and a significant deal on the home we now proudly own.
Throughout this ordeal, Jo's unwavering support never faltered, reaffirming our trust in her expertise and integrity. From the initial consultation to the exhilarating moment, we received the keys to our new home, Jo's professionalism and care remained unwavering.
Her exceptional service has left an indelible mark on our home-buying experience, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking unparalleled guidance in their real estate endeavors.
Jo Antovoni's dedication, expertise, and genuine concern for her client's well-being make her a standout professional in the real estate industry. We are immensely grateful for her exemplary service and will continue to sing her praises to anyone seeking an exceptional real estate agent.
She has lived in the Dallas/Plano area all her life, which is extremely important for a buyer who is looking to buy a home in an area that fits their needs. Also from a seller's perspective, Jo has great decorating skills and will be able to help guide any seller on how to properly stage their home, which almost always results in a faster sale. If Jo is your realtor, you can be confident that she will have your back, which is the reason why she has so many long-term clients, like myself.

Jo supplied all the names of all the contractors we selected to update our house including: entire exterior and interior paint and sheetrock repairs after extensive foundation pier installation; removal of wall paper and application of hand scraped texture; new kitchen granite countertops and tile.
Jo placed a "Coming Soon" sign in the yard while the work was being performed and we had a signed contract to the eventual buyer within 3 days of placing the sign in the yard...while the remodeling work was still being performed! Her experience, attention to detail and professionalism is simply outstanding. I would never consider using anyone else to list/sell our home.

I would highly recommend Jo. She's hardworking, savvy, knowledgeable and a quick mover, which is important in today's environment. Jo treats every transaction as if it were her own so you are sure to find a great home and negotiate great terms or sell your home for its max value quickly. She also has great design/layout vision throughout a build or remodel process. Most importantly, Jo is professional and a joy to work with and will represent you in that manner.

Being an out of town buyer certainly had its challenges but Jo helped us buy and also eventually sell our townhome (in 2 weeks) in Oaklawn. Jo was diligent to show us many places so we had a broad perspective of what the market was offering. We wanted to be in town and not lost in the suburbs of Dallas. With our desire to be central it certainly limited our search but jo's perspective was eye opening because we were new to Dallas. As a seasoned pro Jo made us feel more like a local than a recent transplant. We found our ideal home with due diligence but with an unexpected job transfer a quick 2 yrs later we were forced to sell our cool home unfortunately. Again, Jo stepped it and took control while we were out of town. Her marketing plan hit home and we amazingly sold our townhome in 2 short weeks. Jo will help you on either end of your home search or sale with tremendous attention and care. She's not just a power agent but also a gem of a person that makes the home search or sale process a breeze. We miss Dallas now for all Jo did for/with us.

Jo is amazing. We are so grateful she was our realtor because we definitely would not have found our home through anyone else. Having moved from Los Angeles, she was literally our eyes and ears and she had our back every step of the way. Call her up! She's the best!

Jo Antovoni is an excellent realtor, who I highly recommend. I have bought 4 homes and sold 3 homes in the past 19 years and Jo has been by my side for each transaction. She is very professional, highly motivated, extremely patient, a great negotiator, and always gave me the attention I needed as a buyer/seller. Jo listened to my needs and knows the area well.
She has lived in the Dallas/Plano area all her life, which is extremely important for a buyer who is looking to buy a home in an area that fits their needs. Also from a seller's perspective, Jo has great decorating skills and will be able to help guide any seller on how to properly stage their home, which almost always results in a faster sale.

Jo is the absolute BEST! We purchased our first home with Jo and our location was Plano, TX. We purchased in a tight market; houses in the areas that we were interested in were going fast. Jo’s expertise in our market was unmatched; she knew every crevice of Plano.
Her knowledge of the home buying process and of every little detail of exploring the homes was exemplary. She was patient with us, and she connected us with great resources. We have been in our home for several years and we couldn’t be happier here. Whether you’re a first time or seasoned buyer…Jo is the realtor for you!

Jo was outstanding for us. We've used her the last two moves and she not only listed and sold our homes, but assisted in many items that show she's willing to go beyond what a normal agent would do. For example, we had several repair issues that needed addressing of which she had great referrals. We needed help in how to present our home of which she provided great insight into the mind of a buyer. Buying and selling a home can be very stressful and Jo always put me at ease with her knowledge of the market. Jo earned our respect and this review!

Jo Antovoni means always clients first. Jo created fully realistic marketing package for our home. She was in full communication with us from end to end during selling our previous home and buying our current home. She counseling on location, neighborhood, schools, etc. Very knowledgeable. She helped us to determine the highest price possible and sold our home as much as possible. she is awesome in write up offers and counteroffers. She was calm from end to end when the pressure was on to make decision in any stage of selling and buying home. End result for my family due to her effort & dedication was saving $$$$$. Thank you very much Jo!

We were selling my parents home after they moved in to an assisted living facility due to health issues. Jo did a spectacular job. She helped with lining up contractors to do needed repairs. Helped expedite getting a new roof put on under insurance. The first deal happened on the open house she set up when we listed the home. A month later the buyers financing fell thru. She was able to secure the earnest money for my parents and listed the house immediately with another open house. We had several offers to pick from above the listed price. She was able to sell the house and got 12k over listing price (including the earnest money from the first deal). I would definitely recommend her.

Jo was essential to my home buying experience. She managed not only to be my realtor but also my counselor through the whole process. She took the time to talk me through each step and ease my mind about aspects of the process that I did not quite grasp. She is such an amazing individual and a phenomenal realtor.​
