Mary-Jo is the ultimate professional. I listed my house with her and she guided me through the selling process and helped me prepare my house for showing... I feel that because of Mary-Jo's knowledge, expertise and experience, my house sold within the first week above asking price. I would recommend anyone who wants to get the best person for the sale of their house to go with Mary-Jo McAvey..

We sold our home in just days with MaryJo as our agent. Her knowledge and experience about the housing market. Is second to none. She is hard working, honest, reliable, always has a smile on her face and looks out for her clients. I have known Mary Jo for just over thirty years and could not ask for a better friend. She has a great sense of humor and makes me laugh more than anyone I know. Always amazes me.

I had the pleasure of exploring Fairfield with Mary Jo two years ago. At the time, my husband and I were exploring the possibility of purchasing a second home there. Mary Jo skillfully guided us in identifying our criteria and then chose appropriate homes for us to see. We had a ball touring Fairfield. Mary Jo’s love for the community is both enthusiastic and infectious. We appreciated her in-depth knowledge and condor. I highly recommend Mary Jo and Vince as successful professionals and masters at their crafts. You can count on their integrity and support throughout the process! Cate
