We contacted Jodi in June (2025) requesting her assistance with three properties: One we wanted to buy and two we wanted to sell (one of which was out of the area). Jodi jumped right on the challenge and helped us to have all three under contract by the end of July and then closed by the end of August. It all worked out as smoothly as possible. Jodis energy, resources, and experience cannot be matched. We highly recommend her regardless of whether you are a seller, buyer, or both. Don and Melanie Fink

Where do I even start? Let me first start by saying, you owe it to yourself to at least call Jodi and talk with her before making any final decisions. While shes an absolute EXPERT in her field, she has something very rare these days- a compassionate, empathetic heart of gold. And given how emotional buying (or selling) a home can be, having an agent like Jodi is a must. I am a single mom of three middle-aged boys. I had many agents to choose from. Once I closed on my house, I looked back through all my text messages. And instead of posting a novel on FB praising her, I posted screenshots highlighting some of her text messages to me. I let those screenshots tell the story. To show just who Jodi is. But honestly, that came as no surprise to many- she is so very loved and respected in our community. Top notch. No wonder she continues to be one of the top agents in all of NH! From day one she sent messages updating me constantly. She sent inspirational messages when offers werent accepted, or things started going sideways. I lost count the number of times she reminded me how the boys and I deserve the perfect house, and she felt in her heart we would find it together. Every success was celebrated with a congratulatory, heartfelt message. Each day leading up to the closing I woke to a text message counting down the days (aEURoe48 hours, but whos counting!!?aEUR?). At closing, she surprised me with a framed picture of our newest addition to the family- our rescue dog named Lucky. So very thoughtful, caring and giving. At NO POINT in this process was anything EVER about her. Now that is hard to find these days! I continued to receive text messages even after closing. From asking how my first night was, to how the boys are adjusting, are we nice and warm, etc. You simply cannot find someone like Jodi. Shes a rare breed. My advice to you is talk with her before deciding who to use. To me, buying a home is far too personal an experience to go with just anyone. Bottom line is if youre looking for someone who is an expert negotiator, knows this town and the real estate industry like the back of her hand, knows all the right people (I couldnt be happier with the people she referred me to along the way, such as house inspector, septic, etc.), is honest and truly has your best interest... you MUST at least have a conversation with her before deciding on anyone else. Thank you, Jodi. For everything. I wish my words could better articulate just how amazing you really are.

We'd been casually looking for a retirement property in Wolfeboro for the past few years. Had an appointment to see another property, we were early, so we drove down Sewall Rd to kill some time and saw this property. We called Jodi, who was the listing agent to see if it would be possible to see it on short notice. She called us right back and said no problem. We drove up, met Jodi, and liked her immediately, very sweet and totally down to earth. She showed us the house (which we fell in love with straight away). There was a previous offer, so we had to wait a bit. Jodi kept in contact until the waiting period was up. We did not use a buyer's agent, so we dealt with Jodi directly. Anytime we had a question or needed information, Jodi always got back to us immediately with an answer or that she would have one shortly. She's very detail oriented and keeps everything in order, making what can seem like a long complicated process a piece of cake. She's very professional, incredibly kind and we would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in the market to buy or sell a property. If there was a 10 star rating, we'd give it to her!

Jodi was incredible, she was responsive, extremely knowledgeable and beyond professional. She was able to quickly sell my house at the full asking price. She gave expert advice on how to prepare my property, price the home and work with potential buyers. She is someone you can trust and will work harder than any other agent I have ever dealt with. I would recommend her highly, and have recommended her to my friends and family.

We have used Jodi for buying and selling several properties now. We have recommended her to all our friends and family as well. She is honest, very responsive, very knowledgable and a very good hearted person. She really wants what is best for both parties. Operating with that mentality has clearly served her well and creates transactions that go smoothly and work well for both sides. We are so blessed to have found her. Thanks Jodi!
