Valerie was an absolute joy to work with, providing us with exceptional service and representation throughout our land purchase process. We were buying land remotely, at a time and location where getting a timely survey was difficult, dealing with multiple sellers. She diligently worked with the sellers agents and local professionals to bring everything together, to include the survey, allowing us to close on time. She responded quickly to all of our questions and requests. We will come back to Valerie with any of our future real estate needs, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional realtor who gets results.
My husband and I worked with Valerie for MONTHS before we found the home for us in this challenging market. Valerie and her team were always supportive and she bent over backward to show us houses at times that worked with our hectic schedules. We finally found and purchased our home in September 2021 and are thankful for The Harkness Teams role in making us homeowners! We highly recommend Valerie if you want someone who will go out of their way to make the home buying process as least stressful as possible.

Jessica served as our agent in the purchase of a large, complex property outside of Mountain City, Tenn.

Jessica was great to work with. She was very knowledgeable about the local area and was very helpful in finding us the right property. Even after the sale was done, she has been very helpful with finding us contacts to do certain things we needed to have done.
I'm a first-time homebuyer and I'm very happy I hired Jessica Harkness! She was incredibly helpful throughout my experience of buying my first home. I had several hiccups along the way too, and Jessica was there for me every single time. From super-technical assistance like negotiating extensions to knowledge about the area like who services my water and electric and how to get them turned on. I'd recommend her to anyone I know - thank you so much again!
Jessica was always quick to respond to my questions. She was very professional and follows through with commitments. I was notified of each showing and everything seemed to be in order. I received several offers very quickly and she helped me work through the process. The automated contract process worked great and made that part of the process more convenient for me. An offer was accepted quickly and the closing went very smoothly. I would definitely use Jessica again and recommend her to others. I a pleased that things went so well
I believe Jessica did an outstanding job helping us find our new home. She only showed us houses that we could realistically afford and did not try to push us into buying a house we were not happy with by downplaying things we did not like about the house or state an issue was simple to fix. She steered us from houses that did not fit our requirements, including one that had been in a flood a couple of times and one of her own listings that would not meet our needs. She responded to our queries quickly and made herself available to us pretty much anytime we needed. I rarely give someone the highest marks but I believe Jessica definitely deserves them.
Jessica's knowledge of the market allowed us to list our home at exactly the right price. Her extra step of providing high quality pictures inside and out allowed buyers to get a true feel of the home and property prior to visiting. Our home was sold in less than a week for nearly asking price! She was great throughout the entire process.
Jessica guided me seamlessly through the process is selling my house. She helped me by understand ways the home will look better to buyers. She explained each form I needed to sign. When I had a question she answered promptly. The first day my house was available for showing, there were four appointments. She presented 3 offers to me that day and explained the details of each. I accepted one offer and the house closed two weeks later. Working with Jessica was a wonderful experience!
Jessica was always there when we had questions. She helped make the process of selling our home of 17 years less stressful. She was honest and so supportive.
I highly recommend Jessica Harkness to anyone who needs a buyers agent. Jessica has one of the highest levels of integrity of any professional, in any industry, I have ever worked with. My wife and I work with Jessica over 2 years as we looked for a home on Lake Watauga in Butler, TN. We live 3 hours away from the area. She brought several opportunities to us and helped us with listings that we found. Her expertise really showed when we started making offers on properties. She would respond, prepare and present offers at all hours of the day and night. She kept us on our listing at our verbally agreed on price with the sellers in the face of new offers coming in. She is the right person to work with when in the heat negotiation. Working with Jessica was a great experience and we are very happy with our new home in Butler, TN. Thank you again for helping us buy our cabin Jessica.
I was very impressed with Jessica right from the beginning. She is knowledgeable without being overbearing. Our house had been on the market for a few years before we signed with Jessica. She created a beautiful listing and our home sold in a short period of time. Jessica walked us through the entire process. I would highly recommend her as a realtor.
Jessica is amazing! She helped me out over a multi-year buying process. I wasn't local, and she was the perfect agent. She knew the area extraordinarily well and was prompt at providing listings that met my criteria. She also suggested properties that were about to come on the market, so she clearly has her ear to the ground. When I finally decided on a place, she was extremely prompt in putting together the contract - even doing it while on vacation - and was instrumental in putting together an offer that was accepted after a short back-and-forth. She provided suggestions for lenders and other necessary vendors, which was extremely helpful since I was not familiar with the area. She's pleasant, kind, and personable. I recommend Jessica highly.
Jessica Harkness was our realtor for selling our home and a separate lot we owned. She is very knowledgeable in the industry with a professional work ethic. She will respond quickly with any questions and give honest advice. Her goal is our satisfaction. We would highly recommend Jessica for any real estate needs.
We would not hesitate to recommend Jessica. As strangers to the area, Jessica exercised due diligence in working on our behalf over a four-state distance. She returned phone calls and texts ASAP. If she didnt know an answer to our myriad of questions, she researched till she found one. She worked out showings on our tight time schedule, kindly drove long distances to accommodate homes of interest, was always patient no matter what the weather, most importantly, NEVER hurried us or pressured us. Jessica is a definite gem in the real estate business.
Jessica helped me to purchase a small farm close to mountain City. I found her to be very professional and diligent. Even though I do not live in TN it worked out like a charm. Highly recommended.

Jess was great to deal with when we decided to move to TN. She went above in helping us buy our new home. Even in the bad weather. She answered all our questions and showed us many houses. As we lived out of state she kept us updated on new listings. Working with her was a great pleasure. Will definitely work with her again.
Living in central Arkansas and looking for a house in NE Tennessee was challenging. Luckily we found Jessica, who patiently showed us multiple houses in the area. We made several trips back and forth over the past months. Jessica is a joy to work with, answered multiple questions and guided us through the process of purchasing the house we eventually chose. She knows the area well, enjoys her job and it is reflected in her actions. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the area .
Jessica went above and beyond to help us! As first time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions and concerns. She walked us through every step of the process and made everything a breeze! She is competent, hard-working, knowledgeable, and responsive. Jessica is truly a pleasure to work with, and anyone would be lucky to have her as their agent!

A pleasure to work with. Jessica is very knowledgeable and patient. She offered professional and expert guidance without being pushy, and made my wife and I feel at ease.
For an outstanding Realtor, I cant recommend Jessica enough. Her vast knowledge of Eastern Tennessee and arsenal of tools and technology made purchasing our ideal mountain retreat very easy (especially during a pandemic!). Jessica was very responsive to our questions and never left us feeling in the dark. She is very easy to work with and excels as a buyers agent. Were sure she would also work equally hard as a listing agent. 5/5 stars!!
Jessica is by far the best realtor I've worked with and I would highly recommend her to anyone. When my family initially started looking for a retirement home in TN, I reached out to approximately 5 realtors and heard limited back until I found Jessica! Within minutes Jessica responded and immediately started looking for our dream retirement home based on our needs. She went above and beyond accommodating our availability (we lived 7 hours away), and she even traveled back to TN on a major holiday weekend to show us our forever home. I cannot say enough about her professionalism, kindness, patience, and real estate expertise. You will not be disappointed if you reach out to her!!!
Jessica was fantastic to work with. She answered every question we had throughout the process and was always very quick to respond. If we ever find ourselves in need of an agent in the area again, she will be our first call!
Quite simply, I would not be living in my home, in my desired neighborhood, if Jessica had not been my realtor. I was very specific in my needs and budget and Jessica actively kept me abreast of the homes fitting my requirements. After viewing several homes in my price range we hit upon the perfect neighborhood for me and with Jessica's persistence, and ingenuity, I was finally able to close on a home in a much sought after location.I can't say enough about Jessica's responsiveness, professionalism and knowledge of the area, plus she is a genuinely nice person and a pleasure to work with.
Jessica has assisted us with two property purchases and multiple viewings/offers. She has always been professional, informative, and responsive.We plan on using her services for any real estate needs we have in the East Tennessee area.
