"Mary Jo and I were casual acquaintances before I thought about moving to St. Catharines. My daughter recommended her and she did an absolutely outstanding job. She was very knowledgeable, efficient, competent and honest in all aspects of the real estate transaction. In my transaction, the other side was a comfree listing and I was very grateful that Mary Jo was representing me and she knew how to work with a comfree seller, making the transaction seamless. She went above and beyond from beginning to end.

"It is with the greatest pleasure that I write this recommendation/review for Mary Jo Madera. I have known Mary Jo for five years or so. We volunteer together at Start Me Up Niagara Outreach Centre. When my husband and I decided to sell our house, I knew that Mary Jo would do a great job because of the person she is. Mary Jo was extremely efficient and caring from the first day she come to our house. Any time we needed to talk to her or see her she made herself available. She recommended viewings and an open house and they were conducted with great professionalism and patience. When we finally received an offer, Mary Jo presented it to us in a timely manner and helped us to make the final decision to accept. Mary Jo is a person who cares about people and the world in general. I would highly recommend her for any position within the real estate business or anywhere else for that matter. I am proud to call her my friend." - Judy Graham, B.A., B.Ed., M.F.A.

"Mary Jo Madera was just wonderful to work with in successfully finding me the type of home I was hoping to find. As I was not familiar with the area and wanting to find the perfect home fairly quickly, Mary Jo smoothly organized many excellent viewings in several areas.  She is a real professional, knowledgeable about what to be paying attention to in a house purchase, hardworking and always available, gives great analysis of each place, and she is a very warm person.  She smoothly guided me through what could have been a difficult process and I simply can’t thank Mary Jo enough for the terrific work she did in helping me find just the right place!"
