Joy Forrest

About Me:

Hi, I'm Joy Forrest and I have been selling real estate in the Triangle, NC region since 1997. I grew up in North Carolina and attended East Carolina University, where I received a B.A. in Political Science and an M.S. in Audiology. After living in Philadelphia, Atlanta, and the Richmond area, I returned to NC in 1996. At that time, I contacted several Realtors in my own personal home search, and was dismayed to find that many agents didn't even bother to return my phone calls or emails. My experiences as a home buyer caused me to believe that I could do a better job of selling homes, if I would simply take the time to keep in touch with my clients. Over the past eight years, that belief has paid off, and I have won numerous awards as a multi-million dollar producer. More importantly, I have a long list of former clients who graciously refer their friends and family for their real estate needs. As a result, over 80% of my business comes from referrals. I would love to help you make your next move. Whether you are looking to buy or sell a home in Raleigh, Wake Forest, or the surrounding areas, I hope you'll give me a call!

Areas of Expertise

I work with a diverse range of buyers and sellers from first time purchases to luxury homes and estates. In addition, I have experience with commerical land and building sales.

Testimonials

Joy, I wanted to take a few minutes and thank you again for all of your hard work and help over the past week. My Dad is really looking forward to his new home and has mentioned several times how professional you've been as well as how much he's appreciated your honesty/feedback. It's been a pleasure working with you and we look forward to doing so again in the future! Take care and have a wonderful weekend. Sincerely, Stephanie Klos-Weller Raleigh, NC

Joy,

Just wanted to write to you and thank you so very much for all you did for us. Having to make the decision to sell our home was not an easy one. You helped us as a friend. You cared about us. Once you knew what we had to do, you went right to work trying to find the right people for our home. Everything happened fast, which is what we needed. The timing could not have been better. You really go above and beyond your duty as a realtor. Thank you again. Barbara & Scott Bryant Wake Forest, NC

Dear Joy,

As the dust settles on the past few months activities, I realize how very grateful I am for the part you played. I appreciate your professional help with the sale of our house- especially the sales price after all the negotiations. I also want to thank you for your communication throughout this, long drawn-out process. Bob and I have had many dealings with brokers through the years, and as a result, pretty much can live without them. However, you have helped to restore our confidence in them, because you have listened to what we wanted; attempted to comply with our sometimes unusual requests; and always kept us informed of what was happening. I do appreciate your extra efforts--- especially in light of the work you did AFTER the house was off the market! I look forward to completing this matter with you at closing in August-- at a time we were able to set because you made our desires clear to the other party. Thank you for your patience, diligence, and your follow-through on all matters. May the Lord richly bless you. Nina and Bob Petro Raleigh, NC
