Dear Jan,

I wanted to send you a quick note of thanks for helping us sell our house. It’s was a daunting task to relocate our family 4,800 miles to Norway as well as having to sell the house in a challenging real estate market. We could have never done it without your dedicated efforts and skill.

You were proactive in helping us with all the little details such as coordinating with contractors to forwarding our mail. We especially appreciate your persistence with the HOA in resolving a last minute issue without impacting the closing date. You kept us up-to-date at each step of the process which was reassuring and allowed us to focus on getting us and the kids settled in Norway.

I’m not sure when we’ll return to Houston but we will certainly contact you for our next house!

Best regards,

Peter & Helen T.   Telfair

Dear Jan:

As you well know this is the second time that you have been our realtor — and based

on the results, I wish I had another property to sell You have to be the Realtor of

Choice — the Benchmark and I would highly recommend you to anyone who is

serious about buying or selling real-estate

Regarding the recent listing, I am stumped to point out any areas in the process that

could have been improved. You were always one step ahead and reacted promptly

to the issues and any of my questions or concerns. I could not ask for more.

I especially appreciated the website you setup that was automatically updated with

activity that affected our particular market (Greatwood, single story homes for sale).

Again, thanks for your part in blessing our family with a successful sale of our

home which was an important part of our relocation to Austin to begin our ministry

as grandparents. God is good!

Regards,

Gary and Shelly T.

The things we wanted in a realtor were experience in the Missouri city/sugar land area, someone who is dedicated to their clients, and knowledgable about the  real-estate process. Jan (and Stan) did all that and then some. They have an encyclopedic knowledge of the area, and helped give us information which led us through the many decisions one has to make when selling and buying a house. They are also very dedicated to their clients. We felt as if were her only client. And with Jan and Stan, you get two realtors. In an event where one is unavailable, the other one pitches in. Lastly, Jan was with us throughout the process advising us on the nuances of all the forms signed throughout the process. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a realtor.

 I’ve bought and sold a fair number of homes over the years and the experience with Jan was head and shoulders above the rest. What makes her different? - Proactive, prepared and operates with a sense of urgency. My dad passed suddenly, and I was faced with having to sell his home while living across the country. She returned my call within a few hours and came over to meet with me the very next day prepared with comps and just the right amount of detail that I needed to move things along. Every day since she has kept me informed and updated on every little detail. I never had a moment when I wondered where we were at in the process. - Compassionate and qualified. Wrestling with all of the emotions of loosing a loved one suddenly was hard enough without having to sort through the details of how to settle an estate. She was so compassionate and caring. She had a comforting way about her - calm, reassuring, and gave me a sense I was in a safe pair of very experienced hands at every moment. Her knowledge of the process, the area and the target buyers for the home were exceptional. She even baked me biscotti, my favorite! - True partnership. She worked with me like I was family: she laid out the process, suggested lawyers, and estate sale teams, coached me at every step, and gave suggestions and ideas on small improvements to make to the house that had a big impact. She brought me carpet cleaner when stains needed fixing, she stopped by the house on her own to check on things when it was empty, and more. She treated my father’s home like it was her own! - Goes above and beyond. There are too many examples to share here on how Jan went way way beyond to help me through the process. I will always be grateful to Jan and I feel blessed to have had her in my corner during this tough situation. If you need a broker in Fort Bend country, do yourself a favor and call Jan. Don’t bother with anyone else. I wish she could buy and sell properties for me everywhere; I would literally never use anyone else! 

I found Jan and Stan through Angie's list when looking to sell a home in Missouri City. I had flown to Houston to settle the affairs of my father who had recently passed. I was in town only for a short stay and I'm not in the real estate business so I needed somebody knowledgeable and responsible to help manage the entire process. 

Jan was able to schedule a meeting within 24 hours of my call. With decades of experience, she quickly impressed with an in-depth knowledge of the area as well as exceptional familiarity of the entire listing and sale process. She knew I would have a great deal to do in settling my fathers affairs and she arrived having already prepared references, comps and drafted a sellers agent agreement. Among the many valuable benefits Jan brought was a deep Rolodex of business contacts to help with the many requirements needed to prepare the house for sale. Her network of professionals included movers, cleaning services, appraisers, foundation consultants, insurance agents and title companies. All were highly qualified and equally responsive. Despite the pandemic, the entire home with decades worth of collected items was emptied and prepped for sale all within one week. This could not have been accomplished without Jan's help and the help of her network. I had to leave Houston and return home but felt comfortable leaving the process in Jan's capable hands.

Jan and her husband Stan took it from there, personally helping stage the home with great ideas and furnishings that they keep for such occasions. I got the sense that she felt personally invested in the transaction and that she brought a sense of urgency to the entire process. Within two weeks of our initial conversation, Jan had secured 40 showings and 8 offers for the home. Despite my absence, communications were excellent - I was promptly kept informed of every showing and offer. Jan helped evaluate the multiple offers and we accepted a cash offer at our asking price. The transaction closed within a period of weeks. With the help of a title company in her network, Jan helped navigate the entire closing process and proved invaluable.

Transaction #2

In addition to the home, the estate also held a piece of undeveloped commercial property in a remote part of Harris county. A buyer had presented himself and I naively assumed that this would be a straightforward transaction that I could handle without a Realtor. Unfortunately complications arose. Weeks passed with little progress and I began to look for a seller's agent. Finding a knowledgeable commercial Realtor that I could trust particularly in this more obscure area proved daunting. 

I reached out to Jan to see if she might again be able to assist. She admitted to being primarily a residential agent but I was delighted when she offered to work with me again. We were able to identify another buyer but lingering issues remained. Jan steered the entire process to a successful closure by taking lead and working directly with the many parties including buyer, title company, attorneys, and surveyors. Even after closing Jan stayed engaged and helped resolve funding issues that lingered into the severe weather and power disruptions that hampered the city. 

I am grateful to Jan and Stan for their remarkable work and jobs well done. I would work with them again without hesitation and would highly recommend them to anyone needing a Realtor.

Real Estate may be how Stan and Jan earn a living, but they have a simple philosophy - Looking out for their clients’ needs comes first and foremost. That's how they have done business for over three decades and that's how they will continue to do so. 

Stan and Jan have been working together since they married 38 years ago. Jan, who obtained her real estate license in 1976, jokes that Stan’s licensure was a condition of their marriage. Residents of Sugar Land’s planned community of Telfair, they have lived and worked in the area since their son Saul was a toddler (He turned 36 in July).Like most people with a successful practice, their client base is diverse and far reaching. Although their focus is Fort Bend County, as long as they can accommodate their clients’ needs, they definitely work outside the area. For those times when they cannot provide the level of service needed, they are able to refer their customers to an appropriate substitute through their wide network of competent agents around the city and throughout the world.
