Jo was very prompt and attentive to our needs and questions. Jo cared about both the buying of our new home and the selling of our previous home. She was very focused on details. We enjoyed working with her and appreciated her help and knowledge!

Jo was such a pleasure to work with. An authentically helpful person who has a natural passion for meeting people's home needs. Jo helped me with a lot of things that I wouldn't think the standard realtor would assist with - because she simply enjoys it and does well to make it a memorable, shared experience out of it. She was able to connect me with the former owners of the historic home that I purchased to go over some key features of the property. Jo has an exceeding amount of local knowledge and excellent taste to match making her a lovely candidate to help anyone entering the Bisnarck market. Thank you, Jo !

- Happy first time home buyer

We met Jo first as a client and then we became her clients. She actively pursued us for the listing of our house. She came over right away and did a walk through of the house with us, told us some things to move out, repair, and clean. We met a few days later with an advertising plan, comps, and price point. We listed the house right away and had a ton of showings. We had a lot of other agents telling us "an offer will be coming" that did not come. That was difficult. However, when we did get an offer, the negotiations went quickly. Overall, we had a great experience selling our home with Jo Ellen Kralicek.

Jo was absolutely amazing to work with! She is so knowledgeable and friendly! She went above and beyond for us during the sale of our home and purchase of our new home. She was always very quick to respond to any questions we had no matter what time it was. She was amazing and so reliable! She made a very stressful process so simple and easy! We would recommend her to everyone!

We had previously sought out 4 other realtors that refused to hear us out. She cold called me and thank GOD she did!! She was wonderfull!!!
She listened to my wants and desires in the sale price of the home and gave me useful suggestions as to how to meet that mark. We were listed 2 days and meet that expectation and went 5k above asking. She was on the ball with frequent calls so I didn't have to hunt her down she made sure to check in on us and our progress in fixing the home up for showing. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to get the most out of their home.

She was amazing. She did a great job showing the house to us on FaceTime with our friends. We lived out of state and made everything work smoothly for our transition from another state.

Jo Kralicek was a trustworthy advisor to me on the sale of my house and purchase of my new home. She took the time to understand my needs and concerns, helped me make a plan that I was confident with during the process. Jo provided great feedback and helped by clearly explaining all details while she managed the process. She was very responsive to my questions, no matter how small. If I purchase another home, I would work with Jo again!

We had known Jo Kralicek through Boy Scouts and her PR experience through the Bismarck Tribune. She sent us mailings and emails as an agent and knowing her previously that's what led us to her. So when we needed to sell my mother's home, we automatically thought of Jo because it was nice to personally know our agent.

She laid out a real clear sales plan and explained how the process would go, what we needed to do to get mom's house ready for listing, and a rough timeline of how things would go once we accepted an offer.

Jo researched other properties for sale in the neighborhoods around my mother's house to get an accurate reflection of what those homes were selling for to come up with a fair listing price. She was very knowledgeable about the different types of loans that potential buyers would be looking at and what that would mean for us. She also took the time to keep my mother informed at the care center she resides in and went out of her way to have my mother sign some paperwork about the property by actually visiting her in person.

Once the listing date was set on a Thursday, she agressively set up 2 Open Houses for the first weekend. By that Sunday we had 2 offers already for more than our asking price.

After we accepted the offer, Jo took care of everything involving the closing date and made sure that we got the needed forms and other paperwork required for closing in order.

Jo always dressed and acted professionally but had a real down to earth way of communicating with us that made us feel very comfortable.

We can't think of any home sale going more smoothly and getting the best price for my mother's home was icing on the cake.

We will gladly recommend Jo to others who are thinking of selling their homes and we would definitely have her as our agent in any future home sales.

Jo was extremely helpful and reliable throughout my entire experience of being a first time home buyer. I couldn’t have asked for better service and I would definitely recommend her to others and myself in the future!

I chose Jo as the agent first-the broker she is associated with was a bonus. I was well familiar with Century 21 Morrison as they are well-respected in the community, but honestly I wanted an agent I felt would support me and my needs.

Jo is very professional, patient, knowledgeable and respectful. She displayed incredible professionalism and support in selling my property amid numerous challenges from the property managers and owners.

Jo was amazing. She worked harder and promoted my property more than I have ever experienced and I would highly recommend her to anyone selling or buying real estate.

Jo Kralicek was one of the most caring people we have ever worked with.
If you want someone to be there for you night and day to answer questions she is the one to call.
She went above and beyond for us through this whole thing. Made sure we understood what was going on at all times. To the time to sit with us and talk
YES I would use her again and again.
She not only helped me sell my house but also purchase my new home!!!
Thanks for everything Jo\

Very responsive also did alot of good follow up. She worked hard to find the condo I wanted. I highly recommend Jo for any real estate transaction.

I was pleasantly surprised with the final asking price.

Couldn’t have asked for a more knowledgeable and friendly real estate agent.

Very satisfied!

Jo is one of the more personable people I have ever met. I would strongly suggest working with her!

Jo was great! We submitted an offer depending on the inspection but the sellers didn't need to fix anything. I am not sure how but she got them to replace the roof when they technically didn't have to!

Met Jo Kralicek at an open house & when she followed up with us we felt she would be easy to work with & understood what we were looking for in a home. Jo also had answers to any questions we had concerning the business end of buying a house

Jo was always very prompt getting back to us if we had questions or requests.

Hope to never move again, but if we do we’d contact Jo!

Jo is a consummate professional. I do not know if we were her only clients or not, but from the beginning it felt like we were. Every time I called, she answered. Every text I sent was met with a response immediately and if not it was within minutes. Having to wait a minute or two was the rare occurrence.
Communication is critical from starting to shop for houses through closing. Jo kept the lines of communication open day, night, weekday, and weekend. She was always prepared, had documents complete and ready, and offered us all the literature we could read to ensure our success.

Jo is amazing! She really cares about her clients. She made the day of our closing very special. Jo is very trustworthy, and we felt taken care of when purchasing our house. I will highly recommend Jo to others buying or selling houses. She was very helpful by listening to our needs and communicating during the negotiation process.

Jo is the best!!!

My brother, Tom Schmidt, found the realtor, Century 21 Morrison Realty, that had done business in the rural areas around Bismarck. As I researched, I, too heard great reports of Century 21 Realty. We wanted the word out for our parents home to a larger area than the small town area Hazelton. The house sold right away and we were pleased. We are glad we went with Century 21 Morrison Realty.

As for other advertising, I believe the advertising was only online but I am not sure. I saw the online ad and the second day it was online, the buyer looked at the house, loved it, and put a bid on the house. A week later the ad was off the online ad. JoEllen Kralicek did an excellent job of keeping both my brother and myself informed of all the transactions taking place. We were never left in the dark. JoEllen contacted us via phone, conference calls, emails, text messages and FAXs. We are very pleased with her work on the sale of our parents house as both my brother an I do not live in the Hazelton area.

JoEllen Kralicek was very professional and thorough as everything was covered from top to bottom of the house. We would recommend JoEllen Kralicek to everybody who wants to sell their property.

I have only good words for Century 21 Morrison Realty. Superb!

We are very happy with the business transaction and happy to hear we have a new owner in our parents home.

My experience with Century 21 Morrison and JoEllen Kralicek was very positive. JoEllen listened to our needs for a home and worked within the corporate requirements of The Salvation Army to find the right place for us. We are very pleased.
