Janel is an incredible communicator and advisor.
She kept me informed of everything in the process of selling our home. She worked hard and was always available. Whether it be advertising, open houses, or recommendations to improve sellability and curb appeal, she was forthright and right every time. She willingly shares her extensive knowledge and guidance and made me confident that we were doing the right thing for us as a seller and for the buyers, too. I had two other realtors walk through the property before we put it on the market and neither gave me the confidence they would sell like Janel. I thank my friend Bev for recommending her.

We had the pleasure of working with Jess Cross during our recent home purchase in Iowa. We were unfamiliar with the local real estate process. From the very beginning, Jess was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and supportive—walking us through every step with clarity and professionalism.
What stood out most was her dedication. Even while she was out of the country on a well-deserved vacation, she remained actively involved in negotiating our offer and made herself available for any questions or concerns we had. At no point did we feel like we were on our own; she was always responsive, thorough, and genuinely had our best interests at heart.
Thanks to her guidance, what could have been a stressful process turned into a smooth and successful experience. We are so grateful for her hard work and would highly recommend Jess Cross to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Where do I even start?
Janel went above my expectations for sure! Anytime we wanted to see a property, she was there and ready to help any way possible to answer our questions. She was also very accommodating to all of our different schedules.
I would recommend Janel to family and friends, especially if they want somebody that feels like more like a friend and is not just there for a sale

Even though Janel was representing the seller she did an awesome job of addressing my concerns and making sure I was satisfied with the resolutions. She kept me up to date on the sale and closing information. Gave me recommendations on who to use for inspections. My offer on the home through the closing of the sale was completed with me in Kentucky depending on Janel to make sure everything went smoothly. It did and I am now happily settled into my new home. Janel consistently delivered results that exceeded all expectations.

I was moving from Texas to Iowa to be close to my daughter and her family. I scheduled a few days long trip to look for a house and my son-in-law recommended Janel to me. She did an outstanding job. I had contacted her and gave her my timeline for the house hunt and she made sure to clear time so we could look at everything available.
In just a few days she showed me at least 30 houses and I found one to make an offer on and then went back home to Texas. Janel professionally handled everything related to the purchase and I was able to get moved to Iowa.
Janel is friendly and professional. I would use her as my realtor again, if needed and highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Janel is a very fun, kind and caring person. She is also a very hard working and helpful. While looking for an acreage that would be perfect for our family, she spent many hours researching places and taking us to them. While this is part of the process she did it with excellent service and attitude. Many long nights and far drives to meet us at potential places for over a year. Janel worked hard to help us locate the perfect place, and found it! We are so very thankful for her and appreciated her company throughout the process. I highly recommend Janel to anyone who wants a realtor with an amazing heart.

I’ve known Janel since we were kids in the 80’s! I’m a broker in 4 states including Iowa. I still hire her for my family buy/sells. I’ve trusted her with friends, my sister and my mother due to distance from my Scottsdale office. She is solid salt of the earth, I wholeheartedly recommend her. Ethics, hard worker and an American patriot. Our family of real estate brokers love Janel.
