What Our Clients Say

I would highly recommend Joanna to any buyer or seller, especially in the Ridgewood area


I am a Real Estate Attorney and I recently had a buyer of a property in Ridgewood who was also represented by Joanna. Due to the high demand and low inventory of properties for sale in Ridgewood my clients had been trying to get an offer accepted for over one year before they were finally able to get under Contract with Joanna's assistance. There also were numerous inspection issues that had to be negotiated for several weeks and it seemed that both sides were not going to come to an agreement. However, through patience and persistence Joanna was able to assist us in reaching a mutually acceptable agreement for a credit and was able to keep the transaction together so that we closed and my client was able to enroll their children in the school system before the school year began. I would highly recommend Joanna to any buyer or seller, especially in the Ridgewood area

Joanna was truly professional and offered wise advice throughout the process.

We worked with Joanna from The Gill group on our second home purchase. Joanna was truly professional and offered wise advice throughout the process. We had extremely tight schedule to find new home and I can say that she played the key role to make it possible from open house visit thru closing in 5 weeks. I highly recommend her!

She truly made the home buying experience stress-free.

Joanna is such a great realtor and human being. We thoroughly enjoyed our home buying process with her. We were contemplating about moving to a single family home after spending most of our lives in condos. Joanna was very patient with us figuring out suitable neighborhoods, understanding our priorities and hand picked a diverse but succinct list for us to start our house hunting journey. She would even preview houses for us and let us know her thoughts about each property. When we narrowed our selection down to a short list, Joanna helped us understanding the pros and cons of each option while maintaining great relationships with listing agents to keep our options open. When we were ready to put in our offers, Joanna was able to utilize her great negotiating skills and helped us getting the right place at the right price. Joanna went above and beyond on every aspect of the process. She connected us with great resources on lawyers / mortgage / inspections and everything else. We never felt pressured or rushed throughout the entire process. Her great local knowledge also helped us feeling great about our choice. She truly made the home buying experience stress-free. We would highly recommend Joanna to anyone looking for a knowledgable, kind and brilliant realtor!

She is very reliable and knows the neighborhoods very well.

Joanna was such a great realtor and helped our family find an amazing house. She was great at communicating, response our questions and concerns quick all the time. She is very reliable and knows the neighborhoods very well. She goes above and beyond for her clients. Very trustful agency.


- Jeongseo C.

Joanna was very responsive in communication with texts and emails.

Joanna helped my family transition from a condo to a single family house in a very prestigious town when the market was crazy competitive where all buyers were bidding well over the asking price before the rate went up. Joanna was very responsive in communication with texts and emails. She checked out most of the new listings before I noticed on the new listing feeds. For our current home, Joanna found the right property that had high asking price that received no offers after an open house. Joanna suggested to go lower than the asking to see if it can get accepted. In the end, our offer was accepted and we have been in this house for almost 6 months without any issues. We had to sell our condo and occupy the unit for a couple of months for closing and moving. Joanna is with Laura Gill Team and the sale of our unit and all matters related to the transition was handled without problems. I highly recommend Joanna and Laura Gill Team to my friends and colleagues without any hesitation.
