FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
Be patient, but be aggressive in knowing what you want. Explore the options, communicate openly with your realtor so they can help you find more of what you're hoping to find. For our team at Compass, about 35% of our sales are off-market, hidden gems! so its important to choose a realtor who can give you access to homes that are for sale but never make it onto the MLS. *Make sure your team includes a stellar, local lender, if you will need a mortgage for your purchase.
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
Listen to your realtor to help you understand the hyper-local market, especially your niche neighborhood market, and your competition. You can only control 3 things when you're selling: 1)how your property looks/condition, 2)the asking price, and 3)what you ultimately will accept for your property. The market/buyers determine what they are willing to pay/what your home is worth. Price is ALWAYS king.
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
Move-up buyers looking for a bigger home or more/better amenities; down-sizing and right-sizing sellers who want less/more home and better amenities or higher finish-out; buyers and sellers relocating to Dallas, or away from Dallas for jobs or family; buyers looking to invest in small, multi-family properties in the Dallas area; and I specialize in the over-55 market with a Certified Senior Advisor designation, helping 55+ sellers and buyers with their unique set of needs and resources.
4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
I helped a couple relocating to Dallas from New York/New Jersey. Hope and Pierre wanted to find a Downtown Dallas condo that would be right in the center of everything they wanted to do, with beautiful views, great amenities, an involved group of neighbors/residents, and a place that felt like home. They were super fun, willing to explore the Downtown and Uptown highrises, and trusted me with the details... we found the perfect place! Stunning views, a terrific building at Azure with their own private garage, an oversized balcony, plus an indoor and an outdoor fireplace! They fell in love and have made their new home in Dallas. They were so excited!
5. How did you get started in Real Estate?
I started in real estate by buying, renovating, and reselling homes back in 2006 - aka, flipping. This gave me a deep appreciation for finding the potential in a home and knowing what it would take to make it a reality. I naturally progressed into residential sales and found that I loved helping other people do the same thing even more. Home is such a huge part of your life, and I love being a part of my clients journey around that.
6. Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
I have been in Real Estate since 2006, which is a huge education in and of itself, riding the highs and lows of the Dallas market - the crash of 2008 and the rebuild since. I also have designations in Negotiations, and am very proud of my Certified Senior Advisor designation. I have also worked with the leading Real Estate coach since 2014 to help me stay ahead of trends, innovate, create, strategize, and uncover ways to put that to work for my clients.

We had the best experience selling our house with Indigo Skye Group. From our initial contact, Janelle was professional, quick to respond, and helpful. She answered all of our questions and went above and beyond to help find the right people to fix a few things in our house before putting it on the market. The designer she brought in to stage our house made a big impact and the photographer captured all the best parts of our house beautifully. She was able to get us top dollar for our house quickly and helped us navigate each step of the process effortlessly - from listing, negotiating, and closing. Janelle and Kaity were a joy to work with and we highly recommend them. They made selling our house stress free!

We could not imagine buying our first home (or any of our future homes) without Janelle. She was very friendly and professional. As first time home buyers, she was an incredible source of wisdom and so patient with us every step of the way. We had a long home buying journey and Janelle was always available to us. We really trusted Janelles advice and she knew what to look out for. She was a great resource when it came to lenders, vendors and remodeling projects as well.

Judy took the time to time to look at multiple homes, at odd hours and weekends. She worked hard at finding homes that fit what I had described. I saw myself in each home that she showed. She had a way of explaining issues that could have been upsetting for selling and buying, that were easy fixes with simple communication and understanding. I will always be grateful for her helping find the home of my dreams. I cant express enough what a blessing it was to have her as my agent.

Indigo Skye Group was a pleasure to work with selling our home. Their expertise, advice and knowledge was extremely helpful and welcome. Judy went above and beyond whenever we needed assistance. We had a plumbing/drywall issue the night before we were to close, and she got someone in immediately to do the repair before our 10 am closing. The entire selling process couldn't have gone more smoothly and we would definitely recommend them to anyone selling their home.

Absolutely could not have asked for a better team to work with ! Judy and Sherlin were awesome and made the entire process so easy. The sale of my house was quick and without surprises . My plan is to also use them to purchase my new home.
