The first was during a bad seller's market- She was able to secure good buyers and negotiate a fair price. I was impressed with her ability to navigate an otherwise stressful process with patience and grace. So much so that I hired her again to sell a home in a more conducive market- Joyce brought in multiple offers quickly, with the final settling at $50k over asking. I was thrilled! A seasoned veteran of both upside and downside markets and everything in between, I highly recommend Joyce as your next realtor!
She always makes herself available to share advice and knowledge and is an absolute pleasure to work with.
From the initial meeting and consultation to the final closing, she demonstrated a thorough knowledge of the Monmouth County real estate market and provided invaluable guidance at every stage. Her real estate experience helped us immensely as we sold our 187 year old home within the Shrewsbury historic district. She assisted us in identifying appropriate resources to prepare the property for sale and recommended a highly competent real estate attorney whose services were excellent. The property sold promptly, and Joyce remained fully engaged throughout the subsequent phases, including inspections and all related meetings. Her dedication, knowledge, and reliability made a significant difference in a complex transaction. We look forward to working with Joyce in the future!
Even as the real estate market began to shift, Joyce's professionalism and hospitality put us at ease and she was diligent at every step of the selling process. We would highly recommend Joyce and BHHS Fox & Roach.
She responds right away and if she can’t she will text you. What I liked most about my experience with Joyce is that she was never pushy. She showed me many properties at my request before my home was listed. I never promised her a listing yet she still contacted me whenever a listing came on she thought I might like. This was not the case with other agents who just wanted to list my home , for this reason Joyce stood out as a true professional and someone who cares about her clients.
The mortgage end can be challenging and she was always prompt to respond which helped make my mortgage process move just as smoothly! Highly recommend! Julie K. Gill, NMLS# 32076 - Prosperity Home Mortgage
She was very knowledgeable and responsive in every aspect of the selling process starting with getting a professional photographer to take excellent pictures of our property and surrounding area highlighting its salient features. We worked together in developing an ideal marketing description of our property. She was very professional and dedicated to ensuring a smooth process through closing. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.
She's honest, straightforward and extremely dependable. All my interactions with Joyce have been very positive. She works hard and is always willing to go above and beyond to get whatever job done!
Her expertise and guidance through the stressful process of selling our home was a big reason we were able to sell so quickly. Her calm demeanor and professionalism was top notch and much appreciated.
You made the whole process run smoothly and you were always available when we needed you. I would recommend you to anyone buying or selling a home in the Monmouth County area. We look forward to working with you on our next real estate transaction.
Bought 3 houses from her!

Among those, I have no hesitation to say that Joyce is the BEST. She was responsive and reliable, experienced and organized. She is not just a realtor, but more like a partner/coach/navigator. If you are looking for a North Star in your real estate journey either as a buyer or seller and don't want to get lost in the woods, she is the go-to-realtor.

Joyce was fantastic with helping us purchase our new home and sell our old home. Joyce is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work. She knows all the ins and outs, the nitty gritty and all thats in-between. Always available never let a phone call go un-returned. Just an absolute pleasure to work with. I would never do another real estate transaction without Joyce.
She went above and beyond and was extremely helpful knowledgeable and successful Thank you
She payed attention to the details I had no idea about. The sale was a little difficult, but Joyce stepped up every time there was a snag. I trusted her to get the job done and she did, easing my mind. I highly recommend Joyce. She is kind, caring and gives the attention you expect from your realtor.
She always has her customers best interests at heart and is easy plus a joy to work with. Julie Gill, NMLS#32076 Prosperity Home Mortgage
They were fast, reliable and able to close even in the busiest times. It was a blessing to have had been taken care of that much!
From the very beginning, she went above and beyond—not just in handling the details of the sale, but in the way she genuinely cared about me. She was always available to answer my questions, kept me informed every step of the way, and made the entire process feel smooth and manageable. What really stood out was her warmth, patience, and dedication. By the time everything was done, it honestly felt like she had become a friend. If you’re looking for someone who will work tirelessly for you and treat you with the kind of care and attention you’d expect from a trusted friend, I can’t recommend her enough.
? Post Covid (still feeling the affects of that crazy time) new schools, two kids (4 and 15 years old!), sports and just life! We have always put our kids first and foremost as most people do, but we were ready for the next step with our oldest getting into St Peters Prep and the youngest starting Kindergarten we knew a move to Monmouth County was going to be vital to their success. We looked for quite some time but it was one weekend that we were just checking out some homes and stumbled across Joyce’s listing in Wall, NJ. Joyce is the most kind, and really someone who cares. Although it was a business transaction it didn’t feel like one, she made it so comfortable in one of my more vulnerable times, and she made it happen. We are so happy in our new home, and excited to create new memories! We are forever thankful to Joyce!

I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of professionalism and dedication she brings to each transaction. She truly cares about her clients. She is knowledgeable and highly responsive throughout the entire process.
I would highly Recommend Joyce Fernandes
The distance, time zone difference, the property being historic/Victorian and our inexperience as first time sellers likely presented quite the challenge to Joyce. We are grateful for her patience, candor and upbeat attitude throughout the process.
We never felt pressured or that we were “in a corner” when making decisions. Joyce made it effortless and collaborative. From our initial conversation when we decided to list our home for sale, until our closing date and beyond, Joyce has been incredibly communicative, kind and helpful. We leaned on her for her expertise and advice, allowing us to sell our home with terms that worked best for our family. We are so grateful to have been referred to Joyce.
She was very understanding of how difficult this process was initially for my sister and I due to selling our childhood home after the death of our mom. She was very prompt with her responses and communication which made the process very easy for us and she did everything in such a genuine way.
..so thorough.
She is sensitive, genuine, and hardworking. I was intimidated with the idea of selling my property and Joce was a source of calm and reason. She offered great advice and quickly established a sense of trust for me and my family that helped us become a lot more comfortable with the process.
She made the whole process really smooth for us. I highly recommend her for anyone who is buying or selling the property. Good luck
She'll be in there all the way for you. Thanks
She was always available for our questions and concerns. She made the process of selling our first home easy by taking care of all the small details along the way to ensure a smooth closing. She is extremely professional from making sure the listing details and pictures were perfect to making phone calls on our behalf through the process. I would recommend Joyce to anyone who wants a knowledgeable and professional realtor to guide them through the process.
She was involved in every aspect of the selling of my home. Professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely use Joyce in my future of buying and selling.
No one ever regretted doing business with an agent who consistently performs to high standards and well-regarded by her peers.
She was most knowledgeable, personable, professional, ready to respond to whatever my needs were. Ms. Fernandes recommended the date she thought we should put the condo on the market. Although I was unsure, I followed her advice. The condo sold in less than 2 months as there was essentially no competition at the time. There are not enough positive words to describe Ms. Fernandes and the manner in which she handles things. She was always available, always knew what was needed next and moved to implement whatever it was. She went miles beyond what anyone would expect a real estate agent to do. She buys into the client and takes on the property as if it were her own. Her negotiating skills are superb. I cannot imagine a real estate person being so proactive, caring, available, ahead of every curve than Ms. Fernandes. I live in Tucson and everything we had to do we did with ease. Ms. Fernandes never stumbles, always has several ways of dealing with issues that arise. I do not know how I would have been able to sell my condo with anyone else. I put all my trust and faith in Ms. Fernandes and she exceeded that.
Joyce was very knowledgeable regarding the right price to sell my house. She worked very hard searching for the perfect house for me, Which I now reside in. She was always professional and available at anytime. I have never met someone so sweet, honest, dedicated and caring. I don't think I can compliment her enough for all her hard work. Thank you Joyce!!!!
When our time came, we reached out to her. Very glad we did! We had already moved away when we hit the market, and she handled Everything to keep those buyers happy. 5 stars for a reason!
She is honest and also quite helpful. She was great throughout my whole renting process and even checked in on me after the fact. I am so grateful for Joyce!
I have used her services to both sell a home and buy a home in the past two years. She is extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market and can guide you through the process of buying or selling a home. She is always responsive and works tirelessly for her clients. If you are looking for a great real estate agent that you can trust, I highly recommend Joyce.
Joyce was so kind, professional, Diligent, patient, knowledgeable and always there for me! She worked so hard to help me find the perfect home for me. She was there emotionally for me too.I now consider her a friend. No matter your real estate need, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JOYCE!
We’ve had the privilege of working with her more than once, and each time she has gone above and beyond in every way possible. Selling, buying, and moving can be an incredibly stressful process, but Joyce made it feel seamless. Her professionalism, deep knowledge of the market, and commitment to her clients are unmatched. What truly sets Joyce apart is her personal touch—she doesn’t just treat you like another client, she treats you like family. She took the time to understand our needs, guided us with patience, and advocated for us every step of the way. She handled every challenge with calm expertise and always had our best interests at heart.
She was extremely professional from start to finish and an absolute pleasure to work with.Communication was clear, timely, and straightforward throughout the entire process, which made a big difference in keeping the deal moving smoothly. She was organized, responsive, and handled everything with a calm, confident approach.It’s not always easy working across the table, but Joyce made it seamless. I’d gladly work with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.
I needed to rent a condo and targeted a place in Red Bank. Joyce helped me find a place there and took care of all the details to secure the condo. One would not go wrong to use her as an agent.
She was very knowledgeable and responsive in every aspect of the selling process starting with getting a professional photographer to take excellent pictures of our property and surrounding area highlighting its salient features. We worked together in developing an ideal marketing description of our property. She was very professional and dedicated to ensuring a smooth process through closing. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.
She was extremely considerate of our needs and desires. She was also very capable and professional, and kept us very well informed about what was happening. The sale went very smoothly, and we feel very good about the process and the outcome. We're very happy to recommend her to anyone.
