Janice Strauss - Testimonials

Tell Us Your Story

Janice became a wonderful addition to our family, not only as our realtor but as our friend.

She made the experience of searching and finding a house such a pleasure that once we settled on our new home we knew we'd miss seeing her every week! Janice knew exactly what we were looking for and made it happen. We would recommend her to everyone and continue to use her as our realtor through the rest of our real estate adventures.

I highly recommend Janice.

She handled the sale of my parents’ home ( my sister and I do not live locally) which sold above asking price prior to being formally listed. Janice went over and above to make sure the house was ready for sale including helping us to secure great local service people when needed. She returned calls and emails promptly and kept us updated during our entire transaction. It was the best real estate transaction we’ve had.

Janice helped me find a gogeous home that is in the exact area I wanted and it fits all my needs.

She made the process more simple than I could believe, and before I knew it, I was a home owner. She really did everything! She found the perfect fit for me and guided me through the process. I would highly recommend her.

Janice is a great listener and understood our needs and what we were looking for.

We literally found our house the first time she took us to look at houses. We are very happy with our decision and grateful to Janice for her hard work!

Ann Sacks

She did a great job and got the house under contract in 5 days.

She also got me a fantastic deal on my new home. She will be my go to person if I need an agent in the future.

Janice Strauss did a most wonderful job in finding and negotiating our current house.

In addition she did a fantastic job in selling our former house. (In a slow and difficult market, she managed to get it sold in a month at a very competitive price.) She is very knowledgeable, responsive, personable and professional. I would highly recommend her to any one who is looking to buy or sell a property. (She would be our realtor of choice again any time).

Janice is truly wonderful!

She is very efficient and responsive with communication; she always kept me updated and acted quickly. She was my parents' realtor years ago and helped my grandparents out as well--their experiences helped me have even more confidence that Janice is good, hardworking, honest person. She was very good at negotiating and I got my house for way below the list price. Overall, I can't recommend Janice enough!

Jessica

I had to sell my mother's house in Spring of 2010 - one of the worst times for the housing market.

Janice had several offers for us within a month and the house was settled within 3 months. Not only did she know the market and where to find potential buyers, Janice expertly advised us on how the offer and contract should be worded (nothing was simple during that period of time) and was invaluable in looking after our interests in our negotiations with the buyer.

Janice Strauss was very professional both in the sale of my home and the purchase of my new condo.

She was always available, patient with me as I looked at many condos, and answered all my questions. She made the settlement process quite easy.

Wendy Branoff

Janice comes highly recommended by my wife and me.

She worked diligently around our schedule to show us homes until we found one that we truly fell in love with. From planned week-end visits to last-minute requests, Janice was there every step of the way. She quickly understood our wants vs our needs.

David Makara

My agent was amazing and incredibly knowledgeable!

Linda Feiges

Working with Janice Strauss was a no brainer for my brother and myself.

We are both out of towners and were selling a condo in Baltimore. We did a lot of things virtually, which Janice made easy for us with her wisdom and patience. She walked us through the process. We are grateful she was able to make the process easy and quick. We would certainly recommend Janice! Thanks Janice.

Margo Hunkeler

We had very specific requirements for a condo close to our son.

Although the area we wanted was not really in Janice's area of expertise, she went over and beyond in researching and helping us find an ideal place.

Robt markowitz

The sale of my condominium in Owings Mills went very smoothly.

I have known Janice Strauss for many years and she was the only person I would consider to represent me in my real estate dealings in Baltimore. As I live out-of-state I really needed to have someone to rely on since everything was done remotely. i would highoy recommend Janice to anyone who asked for a referral.

Alan Werba

Janice Strauss is by far the best realtor that we have ever used.

She is knowledgeable, responsive and professional. I would highly recommend her to any one who is looking to buy or sell a property.

"I had my condo on the market with another realtor for 10 months with no offers. I switched to Lauren at 10 months and immediately after walking into my unit she had numerous ideas on changes and different approaches that may help turn my luck around. Two days after listing with Lauren I had a cash offer. I wish I had gone to her sooner. 100% recommend."

"Lauren was absolutely fabulous. The 1st time I called she was on vacation. Her response time was the same day. She’s incredibly knowledgeable as she seems to know everyone in the business. When there was anything questionable she knew who to call. Her response time to questions or issues was immediate. Our purchase occurred during her family vacation. She made herself available during this time as well.You can feel her passion & excitement over making her clients happy. Lauren is great!!"

"There are thousands and thousands of real estate agents, but few stand out quite like Lauren. She’s extremely friendly and bubbly which makes her easy to work with, but her real estate knowledge and ability to negotiate are second to none. She held my hand every step of the way and helped me decide what to freshen up, how to stage, and the best pricing strategy to get me top dollar for my home. Luckily, it resulted in 10 offers for my house in only one weekend and we set a record price! Any real estate agent can give away your home, but Lauren can get you top dollar and have fun in the process :-)"

"Lauren isn't just a Real Estate Agent she is a true professional on all levels. Her recommendations were not what we had expected, however, we implemented everyone of her suggestions which paid off handsomely. On the first day we received three offers and ended up receiving $20,000 over asking. Her negotiation skills were amazing, her honestly impeccable, and knowledge of pricing right on the money! She is the ONLY professional I would ever recommend to buy or sell a property."

"Lauren did an amazing job selling our home. We had several agents unsuccessfully try to sell our home before Lauren. She brought consistent traffic to our home and got it sold in very quick fashion. We had a large difficult to sell home in a tough market. I highly recommend her to everyone!!!"

"We can't say enough good things about Lauren Shapiro. She is so knowledgeable about the housing market, and was so patient with us first-time home buyers, as we searched for the right home. She gave us good advice at every turn, whether it be about neighborhoods, house styles, the fairness of the asking price, so many things. Then she was a strong representative for us during rather difficult negotiations moving toward settlement. We felt we had a friend and a real advocate for our interests, throughout the long process of finding and purchasing a home. She was recommended to us by a coworker, and we will certainly take any opportunity to recommend her to others."
