Buyer Testimonials
“I’ve used J.S. Walker Associates to buy my house and sell my house in Morgantown, WV. They are the best realtors in the area from a buyer and sellers point of view. When buying from them, they listened to my needs and only showed me houses that matched them saving me time in the buying process. When selling my house, they were able to handle everything while I had already moved out of the area. My house was listed over a holiday weekend and it received an offer in under a week. They explain the process to you and answer any questions you may have. Steve Walker knows the Morgantown area better than any other realtor I have come in contact with.”

“I work at Mylan and I was relocated to Morgantown and had no clue where to start when it came to buying my first home. I had a few friends at Mylan who had highly recommended Jonathan to help me in my search. I called him and am glad I did. He explained the whole process of buying a home in detail and answered all the questions that I had. I found a home that fit into my budget and a home that I am very happy with. I will only be in Morgantown for a couple of years so when it’s time to sell I know who I’m going to call.”
Tiffany Edmond
“My wife and I recently purchased our first home and were lucky enough to have Debbie Warner as our buyer’s agent. We first met Debbie in January at an open house. We met several agents that day, but Debbie’s warm and welcoming personality cemented in our mind that she would be our agent. To complicate things, we were first time homebuyers and living in Pittsburgh. As WVU graduates, we were excited to move back to Morgantown, but the challenge of living an hour away and being unfamiliar with the process of buying a home was stressful. However, throughout the entire process from searching, to going under contract, and closing Debbie was consistently calm and positive. She was always available to speak with us and provided excellent service anytime we called. Debbie’s accessibility coupled with her well-thought-out advice and professionalism made our first home buying experience a breeze.”

“Ryan did a fantastic job helping us get our first home. He worked very hard with a somewhat difficult seller and got the job done. He was very prompt responding to emails, and was extremely knowledgeable about the market. He set us up with great place in the heart of Morgantown.”
Jason Coleman & Grace Hutchens
“Leigh Ann was wonderful to work with and very accommodating to our schedule. She had great local knowledge and provided us with lot of helpful advice. She was really easy to get along with picked up on what we liked without us being very focused with our needs. Generally just a fun person to be around as well as being knowledgeable and helpful.”
S. Brown
“We couldn’t have asked for a better REALTOR than Travis Cadalzo. He was easy going and pleasant to work with, but also on top of every single thing that had to be done to get us into a new home. Travis was patient with us throughout the house-hunting process, and once we found the right home, he made sure everything was in order for us to close in record time. We can’t say enough good things about our experience in working with Travis Cadalzo and the J.S. Walker team. We’ve been recommending him to friends and family since the closing, and will continue to do so in the future. Travis is really is an amazingly efficient, professional and impressive person.”

“Finding Claire Petro was a Lifesaver! We sold our house in PA much faster than expected which left us practically homeless with a baby due in two months. We tried contacting many REALTORS in the area but they all seemed too busy to be bothered. Then we found Claire! From day one she went over and above to help us out. We always felt like we were her number one clients. She would spend entire days looking at houses with us and when those didn’t fit our needs she would immediately find new ones for us to see. The home we decided on was new construction and we had the opportunity to customize it. While very exciting it was also completely overwhelming. Claire held our hand through the entire process and made it seem effortless. She went above and beyond every day to make sure we were happy with our selection. We cannot say enough about what a pleasure it was working with Claire. Even after the sale she still checks up on us to make sure we are doing well. We truly found our forever home and we couldn’t have done it without her. We would highly recommend Claire to anyone who is looking for a “one of a kind home buying experience” with a RELATOR who will give you 110% every step of the way!”
