Joyce Fernandes - Testimonials

Tell Us Your Story

I have enlisted Joyce's help to sell property on 2 separate occasions.

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!

Joyce is the best!

She always makes herself available to share advice and knowledge and is an absolute pleasure to work with.

Amanda Cece

We are pleased to recommend Joyce for her professionalism and expertise throughout the entire home-selling process.

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!

It was a pleasure working with Joyce during the sale of our house in Eatontown.

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.

Marc Kowtko

Joyce is easy to work with.

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.

I highly recommend working with Joyce.

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.

Eileen Fortuna

Where do I start!

? 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!

Carl T124

With Joyce's help, we recently sold our family home in Red Bank, NJ while living on the other side of the country.

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.

baronsbrigade

Joyce is truly the most professional, efficient and effective realtor we have ever worked with.

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.

K M

Joyce was a superb and caring person to work with while selling my mother’s home this year.

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.

Anna Steinman

Joyce Fernandes was wonderful.

..so thorough.

Working with Joyce was just great!

Joyce is the most dedicated agent I’ve come across.

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 outstanding!

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.

matakiamou188474

Outstanding real estate professional with an eye to doing right always for her clients.

No one ever regretted doing business with an agent who consistently performs to high standards and well-regarded by her peers.

Robert Goodman

On first meeting Joyce Fernandes, it was obvious that she was the person to handle the sale of my condo.

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.

platoaz

I can honestly say I had the smoothest experience of selling and buying a house at the same time due to having the best realtor who had worked very hard for me.

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!!!!

Paula Graziano

We met her as she was selling a condo near us and getting fabulous traffic and a great selling price.

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!

Working with Joyce has been nothing short of outstanding.

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.

"There are not enough stars to represent this star! When we moved back to NJ at the tail end of Covid and realized we needed a smaller home than the one we had left behind and rented out once we moved back into it, the market was dauting. We were shocked at the soaring values of homes back in our little neighborhood and the entire area . I prayed that I might maybe be able to meet an agent who would understand our needs and also US! The move back was also daunting and though we knew the area, Florida living is very different from the northeast in every way. I decided I better start looking and went to a few local open houses and Joyce was there! She was so warm and nice, I had to pinch myself and right away I knew if she would take me I would be ok. Joyce has been our advocate for almost three years for both selling and buying. She has worked tirelessly to help us find our new home. Joyce has been honest , direct and makes suggestions in the nicest and kindest of ways. Don't let that kindness be mistaken for ignorance because she is as smart as a whip! She is ALWAYS available and responds to every email, call, text with the answers you are looking for. I know I am in safe hands and there will be no mistakes . I trust Joyce to sell our home once we find the right one to move in to one hundred percent. Joyce is everything you want in a realtor. Smart , pleasant, supportive, understanding, relentless in the best way, and also- fun! I would recommend her to my family and friends and all of you out there who want a real person who has it together and will understand your needs and wants. We will use her in the future, no one else will do!"
