We had an amazing experience working with Joe during our cross-country PCS move. He took the time to really understand what our family needed and was incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He spent an entire weekend showing us more than 30 homes until we found the right one for us and our extended family. Once we found the house, Joe worked hard to get us the best deal possible and stayed fully engaged through closing until we had the keys in hand. Moving across the country is stressful, but he made the whole process feel manageable. Wed absolutely recommend Joe to anyone, especially military families relocating to the area.

My wife and I first worked with Joe Fortuner in 2022 when we were moving to Virginia Beach for a military PCS from Washington. Because of the timing of the move, we had to purchase our home without ever setting foot in it. We didnt actually see the house in person until nearly a month after closing. That could have been an incredibly stressful experience, but Joes professionalism, knowledge, honesty, and communication gave us complete confidence that we were making the right decision. We always felt that Joe had our best interests in mind, and that peace of mind was invaluable during such a major life transition. A few years later, we received orders to move back to the West Coast. Once again, we were dealing with the chaos and time constraints that come with a military PCSaEUR"packing, staging, coordinating movers, and getting everything ready for the sale, often before we even had the opportunity to slow down and process what was happening. Joe was there for us every step of the way. He understood the unique stress that comes with military moves and, just as importantly, understood that selling a home during a PCS carries a tremendous amount of weight. Throughout the entire process, Joe remained knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and dependable. In the middle of everything that was changing around us, Joe was the one thing we knew we could depend on. Joe was actually referred to us by a family member, and that recommendation turned out to be one of the best referrals weve ever received. From our first interaction to buying our home, and then years later selling it as we started the next chapter of our lives, Joe treated us like people rather than just clients. I would recommend Joe Fortuner to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Tidewater area, and especially to military families navigating a PCS. After two military moves and everything that comes with them, Joe is the only real estate agent in Tidewater I would personally go back to. Thank you, Joe, for helping make two incredibly stressful military transitions a whole lot easier!

Was very knowledgeable of areas of interest and helped me throughout the process of home buying, the home viewing and the closing. Overall satisfied with the experience and working with his team.

I cant say enough good things about working with Joe; I used him both to buy my house and then sell when I had to move a few years later - dude was involved and invested every step of the way for both. Came to me recommended by a guy I work with and I'm so thankful. First time I called him all the way through to the sale, he took care of countless details that I never would have thought of. The selling was when he truly went above and beyond. He worked directly with a contractor on my behalf to coordinate repairs, helped me save money, and made sure the work was done the right way. He also helped with staging and presentation, which made a huge difference in making the home look its best. The video tour he created and posted online was another (surprise) example of how hard this dude'll work for you. Joe wasnt just there to handle the transaction aEUR" he was there to guide me, advocate for me, and make sure every detail was taken care of. I'm extremely grateful for all of his hard work and would highly recommend Joe to anyone buying or selling a home in Chesapeake, VA (or surrounding area!).
