Joan says, “I am so lucky to work with a great group at Marshall Berch & Associates of Palmer House Properties<\/a>. This allows me to work around the schedule of my daughters and to stay involved with a variety of activities in my neighborhood, at my daughter\u2019s schools and in my own world. I have developed a very large network which helps me keep a pulse on what homes are coming on the market, even before they are advertised.<\/p>\n

Whether I\u2019m in the locker room at the health club, scouring an estate sale, in an aisle at the grocery store or at my daughters’ schools, I\u2019m listening, connecting and contacting potential buyers, sellers and renters. I\u2019m always talking and looking, hunting and scoping out that next great home!<\/p>\n

With your help and support I\u2019ve closed more than 250 real estate transactions and I look forward to helping you, your friends and co-workers buy, sell or invest in real estate. I am so very appreciative of your referrals.”<\/p>\n

Joan and Marshall Berch & Associates have been awarded “Top Team” and “Top Mega Team” by the DeKalb Assocation of Realtors for numerous years.<\/p>\n

In addition to selling real estate, Joan enjoyes yoga, gardening, entertaining and spending time with her family and pets.
