    About Joy Gilkeson

    There are many qualities and skills that go into being an excellent real estate professional - integrity, in-depth community and market knowledge, marketing savvy, effective negotiation skills and a high-quality professional network, all of which are hallmarks of how I work. That said, in my experience as a real estate professional, I've also found that providing the very best service is essentially about putting my clients first. This means keeping myself accessible, being a good listener as well as a good communicator, and responding quickly to your needs. This "client first" philosophy has always been my approach and it requires me to continually improve my skills and ways of doing business. In addition, I've found that the latest technologies are enabling me to do everything I've always done, only much more quickly and efficiently. They've also helped me to extend the range of services I provide to my clients. So when you decide that you'd like to buy, sell or invest in real estate, please contact me.

    I was considering selling a rental property on my own but went with the realtor who helped us find our current residence about a decade ago, Joy Gilkeson, as a seller-side real estate agent to avoid the learning curve. That decision turned out to be excellent. Joy pointed out small areas of improvement we could do ourselves that made a huge difference. She then advised us on showings and offers in a way that helped us pass on an offer at asking price (within a week of listing) so that we wound up with an offer that was high enough that the difference more than covered all commissions and expenses. Along the way, she had a constant eye on the properties with which we were competing and clearly takes every opportunity to find ways to give her clients an edge.

    Joy was a pleasure to work with, very kind, knowledgeable and professional, she always puts her clients first, always guiding them through the difficult process of buying or selling a home. I would recommend Joy to be your realtor for buying or selling a home.

    Joy was as absolute pleasure to work with. This was my first time selling a property and she navigated me through the entire process beautifully. She stayed in regular contact to keep me updated on interested buyers and helped solve every question and concern I had along the way. I was thoroughly impressed with her work ethic and commitment to help us sell our property both quickly and for the best offer possible. Shes my realtor from now on, and I recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent.

    I was a first-time, first-generation home buyer looking for a starter home for me and my parents. Because we're three strongly-opinionated people, we needed someone who could show us what each of us needed in our budget. That's where Joy came in. Where to begin! Even through the unpredictable market, Joy remained steadfast and enthusiastic. She knows the industry and market like the back of her hand, and, perhaps more importantly for our little family, she can share that wisdom and knowledge with ease, even to two folks whose first language is not English. As we searched for homes, she exhibited her keen eye for details and picked up on things issues realtors would not have. Consistently two steps ahead, armed with alacrity and professionalism, Joy was an absolute, well, Joy to work with. She is kind, patient, eager, and advises in a way that makes you feel comfortable enough to make your own choices, but also in a way that makes you feel like absolutely no questions are silly. She is responsive and swift, but always gives you time to feel and think through the options presented. She is the kind of person who will stop people in the street to get the answers you need if thats what it takes! Even after months of searching, she never gave up on us (and there were many moments when I was close to capitulating). It's because of Joy that this little immigrant family from Providence, originally from Cambodia, found an absolutely lovely first home in a beautiful neighborhood. Our lives are changed forever. Never did we ever think we'd be able to not only afford a home, but to find one so fitting for us, and in THIS market! If you're looking for the absolute best for the job, Joy is the one! We cant thank her enough!
