Jane – I am very, very happy to report that I could not be more pleased with JG! He and I synchronized immediately. He is terrific. He is thorough and he takes his time and he is very detailed oriented – just what I was looking for.

As you know, I don’t know much about real estate transactions, but I certainly feel that JG has given me a great deal of time and attention. I am very pleased with his services.

So, I thank you very much for recommending JG to me. I am very grateful to you for your help, Jane. I appreciate it very much.

As first time home sellers having an advocate gave us great peace of mind at the start of a process that ended in a successful sale of our home. Thanks Jane!

My wife and I knew exactly what our first step would be when we started the search for our home – we looked to Jane for guidance. She connected us with a Realtor who was a perfect match for our needs. This was our first home purchase, so we had a lot of questions. Luckily, Jane was there to provide answers, advice, and support. Just a few months later, we are enjoying our new home. The whole process was a breeze, and we know who to thank for starting us down the right path. We would recommend Jane Compagnone to anyone.

Jane Compagnone’s service was a huge help in the process of finding our house. Shortly after letting her know that we were interested in buying a house, Jane met with my wife and me to discuss the house hunting process. She greeted us with happiness and excitement, and the whole process was lighthearted and comfortable. In a short time, Jane discussed the housing market in the areas of interest, the steps leading up to home ownership, and her two best recommendations for Realtors to help us in our search. Moments after meeting the Realtor we selected, my wife and I knew that we had found the very best person to fit us and our needs a first-time home buyers. Our Realtor, who is very selective of her clients, knew that we would work well together since we were referred to her by Jane. We couldn’t have been happier with the whole process!

I recently consulted with Jane Compagnone at Realty Referral Resources when I was planning to sell my house. Jane provided valuable market information and excellent Realtor referrals that fit my needs. I could not have asked for a more capable, experienced and professional consultant to help guide me through the planning and sale process.

Jane provided insight and strategy suggestions, and communicated in a very clear, professional, and honest manner. She was always responsive. Her wealth of experience in the local real estate market was invaluable.

Without reservation, I would recommend Jane Compagnone.

Jane was a big help to us when we started the process of buying our new home. She did extensive research and provided us with a wealth of knowledge about the areas of Pittsburgh where we were looking to buy and also the Realtor options. Jane was confident but not overly assertive with her opinions and always very helpful. I would highly recommend Jane and her services to anyone looking to find the best fit and selection of a real estate professional.

Jane – Thank you again for the professionalism you brought to our For Sale by Owner. Everything was so well organized and planned that we actually enjoyed the process and had fun. We have bought and sold homes many times, but this was the first time we felt fully informed and in control of the process. My sister, a former client, told me not to go with the traditional real estate companies but to try a For Sale by Owner and she was right. This is the way to go in the future – you control the process, reduced stress and Jane is always available to answer any questions. Save your money, control the process and have fun. Go with Jane Compagnone.

Tony and I thank you very much for helping us find a real estate agent! We hadn’t sold a home in almost 20 years, and wanted to find an agent who would be best for our type home and neighborhood. BF was the perfect choice! As you shared with us, she lives just a few streets away from our home, so she is personally familiar with what the neighborhood has to offer. And – she was everything you said she’d be – professional, caring and attentive to our needs. We will definitely recommend you to our friends who need to find a real estate agent!

As first time home buyers in our 20s, we knew next to nothing about house hunting and the real estate market, which is whey we went to Jane Compagnone owner of Realty Referral Resources. Jane was not only there for us through the entire process, but really dove into learning our likes/dislikes in order to match us with an agent that would fit our personalities. Jane referred us to a great agent who was the perfect fit for what became our style of home shopping: brutal honestly! After seeing an abundance of houses over a long period of time, we finally found a beautiful home in our most desired location. It wasn’t even listed for 24 hours before we had an agreement, all thanks to the Realtor Jane had referred us to! Even after closing, Jane is still available to answer any questions we have. There is no doubt we would have Jane help us again when we are ready to buy a second home! Thanks, Jane!

We were really happy with both of your services…wish I had known about your service in 2008 when we sold the house/bought the condo. BKM was a “gem” to work with and I would recommend her to anyone!

When we decided to look for a condo in the Pittsburgh area, we called Jane Compagnone of Realty Referral Resources. Having worked with Jane in the past, we were confident that she would guide us in selecting the right real estate agent for our house hunting. Since Jane had been an agent and manager in real estate for many years, her experience with local agents and the housing market is tremendous. Jane referred us to a terrific and knowledgable agent, who assessed our needs and situation. With only a week to look at properties, we had made a decision. After some difficult negotiations and long hours for our agent, we closed on our condo! Our thanks to Jane for a great referral and to our agent for a job well done.

Jane Compagnone is a personal friend and has been a wonderful support to my husband and me when we decided to sell our home without a listing agent.

After two failed attempts we sought out Jane’s opinion and support. After hearing her professional commitment to making sure we did it right, we took the plunge and never looked back.

She was diligent on the contract side of things giving us advice from the home inspection and who to have and not have…to the closing.
The closing had a few bumps but with Jane on our side, she was able to supply supporting documentation for the loan amount, something the loan officer could not. As a result of her research and commitment to our closing on the new house, again without an agent, we closed on time.

She is very connected and respected in the industry. She does not have favorites and gives information in a clear and unbiased way. I was constantly impressed with her follow-up and new ideas.
I would strongly recommend her to my closest friends and would encourage anyone to sell your house yourself, and she will show you how and you will be happy you did.

Happy selling.

When I decided to stop renting and buy a home in Pittsburgh, I was faced with a deadline of three months to find and close on a house or renew my lease for another year. The task seemed daunting and I wasn’t even sure where to start. I contacted Jane Compagnone of Realty Referral Resources and it was the best thing I could have done. First, she assured me that my timeline was workable, alleviating my major concern. Then, she was able to help me clarify my wants and needs – what I was looking for in a house and in a neighborhood – and promised to get back to me quickly with a referral. I heard from her later that afternoon and within hours I was in contact with the broker she recommended, Brian. He is fantastic! Besides being smart and funny, two of my favorite characteristics, Brian possesses a thorough knowledge of real estate and the Pittsburgh market. It seems like a maze but, beginning with a list of possibilities based upon my criteria, it became easier to find the way. After touring the houses I selected from that list, there was only one house I could see myself in. Again, Brian’s knowledge and insight were invaluable as we moved from the offer to negotiation, inspection, more negotiation, and then to a successful closing. As I write this, it’s less than five months since I decided to buy and more than two months since I’ve owned my own home. I love it and I am so thankful I contacted Jane! She helped me hone my idea of what I was looking for, matched me with the perfect broker, and I always knew Jane was there for me along the way.

Jane Compagnone, Owner of RRR, provided us with real estate agent information that would have required many, many hours of searching to accumulate on our own. She then kept up with current activity for these agents (no small task) so that we could interview the most likely matches for the listing of our property. But that was only the beginning. After choosing whom to interview, Jane then spent time with us to clarify the listing process, give us pertinent interview questions, and assist us in learning what to expect and look for in an agent. Her years of experience clearly showed. We followed her guidelines and when we selected our agent we were comfortable that the “homework” Jane did paid off. Selling a home after many years of living there could be very unsettling but so far the process is unfolding comfortably. We would definitely refer friends or family who are entering into the sell or buy process. Having a guide removes the overwhelmed and inserts the confident.

Due to time and distance challenges, and our lack of experience in navigating the Florida real estate market, we knew that we needed professional assistance to help us find what we were looking for. We used the services of Jane Compagnone, Realty Referral Resources to help us select an agent to fit our specific need, and to represent us in the purchase of our vacation home in Sarasota, Florida. We were so pleased with the results – a relationship with a knowledgeable, diligent real estate professional, who found the perfect home for us – that we are using Jane’s services again to find an agent to sell our beach home in South Carolina. Repeat business – is the best testimonial that we can give!

Jane Compagnone and Realty Referral Resources were of great assistance to my wife and I in locating and purchasing our new home in the Pittsburgh Area. After sitting down and speaking with Jane about our priorities and objectives, Jane was able to present us with a number of highly qualified real estate professionals to review and consider engaging. With Jane’s assistance we picked an agent we felt comfortable with and ended up having a very successful experience. Jane brings a unique combination of skills to her clients including a deep understanding of the process of purchasing or selling of residential real estate, knowledge of the local real estate marketplace and a very high level of client service. Jane continually provided us with valuable information during our search and regularly checked in with us to make sure we were satisfied with the service we were receiving from our agent. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jane’s services to a good friend or family member.

After four years, 2 real estate agents and a substantial adjustment to the listing price, but no sale, we contacted Jane Compagnone of Realty Referral Resources. Jane did a thorough investigation of real estate agents in the Vero Beach area where the property was located, and recommended three agents that we might want to interview. Based on their experience and sales success with properties in our price range we chose a husband/wife team. They brought an offer within ten days and we closed three months later. Jane’s expertise was invaluable in giving this real estate saga a happy ending!

Planning a move from Maine to Pennsylvania for a new job was both exciting and a challenge. Years earlier, I had made the move from Pittsburgh to Camden, Maine without too much planning, but life it seems is so much more complicated or complex today. I searched for rentals and potential purchases on the Internet and that helped narrow my search, but what I really needed was someone I could depend upon and even trust to help me navigate the world of real estate. I had met Jane Compagnone some years ago and when a friend told me about Realty Referral Resources I contacted Jane and she responded promptly ready to offer assistance and advice, as needed. In our initial talk she asked questions about my plans, timetable, area of interest, and preferences. Armed with my responses she promised to have some suggestions for me. I expected her service to be limited to names and contact information of real estate brokers, but I was wrong. Jane did her homework and not only talked with me about different agents, but also provided some feedback on the types of properties I was interested in seeing. As it turned out, she gave me the name of a broker in south-central Pennsylvania and made contact with the broker to help set things up for me. The broker, DW, in Gettysburg, turned out to be a great choice. In that area she is considered a legend in the real estate business. Her skill and especially her knowledge of the local area and the housing market really made things easy for me. She was also most helpful in helping me get in contact with all of the other essential parties in a real estate transaction.

The whole process went smoothly and Jane helped to make that happen. I am thankful I had Jane’s help and have the highest regard for her and the service she provides.

I am so thankful that I used Jane Compagnone of Realty Referral Resources. As a first time home buyer, Jane matched me with an excellent young realtor, KB. Both KB and Jane made me feel at ease during the entire home buying process since it was all a new experience for me. KB was a great match for me. She was very aggressive in helping me find a home in a neighborhood that I had never even considered initially.

I love my new home, and I know I would have never found it without KB’s insights and recommendations. I felt as if KB really looked out for me personally. She wanted to make sure I chose a safe and comfortable place to live, yet at the same time was also sensitive to the price range of a house I could afford. Additionally, she worked hard to help me find a house in time for me to benefit from the $8,000 tax credit that was offered this year through the federal government for first-time home buyers.

I will always be grateful to Jane Compagnone for pairing KB and I together. It was a perfect match as far as I am concerned!

We are very pleased that we used Jane Compagnone of Realty Referral Resources to help us find the right real estate agent in our recent quest to purchase a new home in Florida. As life long Pennsylvanians, we needed guidance and information pertinent to our long distance move. Jane was able to assess our needs, desired locale, time frame, etc. Most importantly, Jane was in tune to our personalities. She referred us to JR of Sarasota, Florida. JR was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely knowledgeable of the housing market in Sarasota. She was familiar with all aspects of real estate, short sales, foreclosures, contract wording, negotiating etc . Jo took the time to get to know us, not just in a business sense, but personally…… our likes, dislikes, needs and dreams. She always made us feel as if we were her only clients. And most importantly, JR helped us find our beautiful new home! We feel very fortunate that Jane Compagnone was able to refer us to the perfect agent for us to work with. Jane and JR made our home buying an easy, successful experience.

I would like to take a moment to share some of the highlights of my husband’s and my recent real estate selling experience as it relates to Jane Compagnone and her company, Realty Referral Resources. Jane and I have enjoyed both a close personal and professional relationship for many years. Prior to moving to Pasasdena, California in 2011, Jane had been an agent in both the purchase and sale of our condo in Pittsburgh, PA. In every phase of those transactions, Jane was the consummate professional. She was there to advise, assist and support.

That having been our experience, it was a natural to again seek Jane’s counsel in selecting agents on both ends – selling our condo in Pasadena and choosing a San Diego agent to assist us in shopping that market. We had names of two prospective agents in Pasadena, whose contact information we passed along to Jane. Jane helped us critique their capabilities and ultimately select an agent who proved to be as wonderfully professional as Jane herself had been. As we contemplated our move to San Diego, Jane connected us with an a local agent who did a good job of exposing us to the market and gave us a survey course in our choices for downtown living. As a result of her work, we ultimately decided to rent in San Diego to test the neighborhood in which we thought we would like to live. We cannot say enough about how Jane vests herself in her clients and works to help them achieve their goals. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to talk particulars about RRR and its services.

My family was not sure who to contact for the sale of a condo in Gaithersburg, MD. I called Jane Compagnone of Realty Referral Resources to help us find an agent. She referred us to KT, an experienced real estate professional who worked diligently for us throughout the entire process – from recommendations on how to prepare the property for sale, to explaining the documents and negotiating the agreement of sale, and finally to handling the closing. The property was listed at the beginning of May, went under contract in the same month, and closed on July 2nd. The transaction went smoothly, in large part because of the skilled Realtor that Jane referred us to. I recommend Jane and Realty Referral Resources to prospective Buyers or Sellers of real estate – in or outside the Pittsburgh area.

Selling a home during the 2009-2012 Sarasota, Florida real estate market was challenging. Moving a $3M+ property was even more difficult. With Jane’s help we were able to idenify three agents with proven track records at this price point and experience in our market. At Jane’s recommendation we interviewed all three candidates and selected the agent that seemed to be the best fit for us and our property. The end result was a sale. Amen to that!
