Joe was recommended by a family member who worked with him to sell their property. I was selling a family member's vacant home from out-of-state. I interviewed three additional realtors and recommend Joe for these reasons: 1. Joe voluntarily went above and beyond what a realtor typically does. When the property needed last-minute repairs and plumbing and structural work, Joe immediately provided a list of experienced tradespeople to call and even oversaw the work when necessary. 2. Joe believed he could sell the home for a higher price point than the what was recommended by other realtors -- and then he did just that, in less than 24 hours. 3. Joe communicated thoroughly and quickly throughout every step of the process. 4. Despite never meeting Joe in person, I felt cared for throughout the entire selling process. I had a wingman in addition to a realtor.

Joe was very professional throughout the selling process. He gave us great advice, and we sold our house for more than we expected! It was a pleasure working with him.

Joe recently listed a house for us, and it was a great experience! He was so easy to work with, never any pressure. Everything was done just as he said it would be. He is very knowledgeable about the area. This is the second time we have had Joe as an agent to sell a home, and the first time went just as well. I would highly recommend Joe as an agent for both buying and selling.

Joe should be your choice for a realtor ! He was very responsive and honest. There were times where I sent him something I was interested in and we were inside of it by the end of the day. He understands today’s market where homes are only on the market for a few days, and things have to be done accurate and fast. Buying a home through him was simple and straightforward. Great man , great Realtor. I’m a home owner in Rocky River thanks to him !

I worked with Joe Rutkowski with selling my home and also purchasing a new residence. He demonstrated both honesty and integrity throughout the whole process. He was responsive to all my questions and walked me through the selling and purchasing process, especially the paperwork involved. Always available in taking phone calls or making appointments to view listings.

Joe gave our family excellent service throughout all phases of our selling experience. His clear explanation of the selling process and all costs involved left us with no surprises at the end. His advice and involvement on how to prepare our house for sale was invaluable. Joe helped the family watch over the house during the sale and kept the family informed of what was happening every step of the way. We were impressed with the number of views HomeSmart's listing platform generated leading to a quick offer and sale. I would recommend Joe for his real estate knowledge and commitment to serve his clients.

Joe Rutkowski was not just our realtor, he treated us like family. He has firsthand knowledge of the neighborhood which is an asset. He recognized the floating housing market trends, yet did not pressure us to change our listed price. He offered sound feedback, but listened to our concerns as well. The outcome for our perseverance was a success for all parties involved! I would consider using his exceptional services in the future.

Joe went above and beyond to make the selling of my home as easy and stress free as possible. He went out of his way to make the necessary accommodations for me to complete the sale despite me having to leave for a cross country move. My home went from listed to sold in just about a month. Amazing experience and highly recommend.
