We purchased vacant land in the Petoskey area. We didn’t have a realtor representing us, but we were more than comfortable engaging with Joe Blachy (Petoskey Real Estate Group). It may be rare for buyers to write a review for the seller’s agent, but we were impressed with Joe. His real estate business is straightforward, honest, and customer focused. We fully recommend Joe! If we decide to purchase more land in the Petoskey/Northwestern Michigan area, we will definitely use the Petoskey Real Estate Group.

We are nearing retirement and while loving Petoskey our future leads us elsewhere. Having said that, Joe was amazing at assessing our needs and property. We were very comfortable with the approach and the attention to detail. I really have no criticisms what so ever! We would not only recommend Joe we will use him again should our paths merge! Thanks Joe! It was a pleasure working with you!

“Over the years, my husband and I have had our share of experiences with realtors, so we have points of comparison. Joe Blachy stands out in a very positive way for the following reasons:
Actively works to sell the property by having frequent Open Houses. Actively works to sell the Petoskey – Up North location as an all-season locale. Develops a full color electronic brochure which includes photos of the property and its specifics, as well as attractions and entertainment in the area (ski resorts, boating, golfing, etc.) Excellent communication skills – prompt delivery of information by phone, email, or text throughout each step of the selling process. Thorough knowledge of Petoskey and surrounding real estate market to assist with pricing the property, staging property, etc. Good advisor when you deal with a counter offer. Pays attention to details. Joe has a warm, outgoing personality. We felt quite confident in Joe’s ability to sell our property. We highly recommend Joe!”

Thank you Joe for your excellence in selecting a new residence for me in the Harbor Springs, Petoskey market.  You went above and beyond my expectations in my price range and found a dream residence. Not only was it closed promptly but you graciously had the place all cleaned and sparkling by the time of my arrival from Ann Arbor, Michigan. All my emails and questions were promptly returned and in a competitive market with multiple offers you came through and made a stressful situation as smooth as possible.  I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Blachy to any buyer or seller for his  intelligence as real estate advisor and broker.

I do not hesitate to recommend Joe as the best realtor in town. Driven. Very responsive, very knowledgeable and such a nice guy! What an excellent experience. Thank Joe!! Joe’s attention to detail, expertise and excellent communication style added value to our bottom line and resulted in a great experience for the sale of our home. He is an asset to your entity and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else!

“After a long adult life of dealing with real estate professionals, Jobst (Joe) Blachy stands out in so many ways: He tunes in to his customer’s desires with a precise, almost uncanny precision. He is able to cut through to the fundamental questions quickly: he is efficient, more so than brusque, in his communication style. Joe is totally “tuned-in” to his client’s communication needs and has never failed to answer a query or a need for reassurance or clarification within a very short period of time. In the rare instance where he does not answer personally, his assistant is available to cover details or concerns. Joe is able to quickly cut through the “typical buying and selling anxieties” of his clients in a precise manner, yet with courtesy, accuracy and honesty. Joe is universally known and respected in his territory. People respect him and trust his word. Joe is enviably admired in the Petoskey community for his public and private charitable and other civic contributions. Joe has a good, tender heart which he deludes himself about hiding from others. Joe has his finger on the pulse of the Petoskey community in a way that reflects his 40 years of being in Petoskey. His experience and trustworthiness are depended on by many. In the unlikely event he doesn’t know an answer to a client question about the area, his decade’s long connections will quickly provide that answer. Joe knows when to provide calm reassurance about client/buyer uncertainties while calmly presenting realities. Is Joe busy? Yes. Is Joe focused on productivity? Resoundingly so! Does Joe strongly represent his clients? In my experience and those others to whom I have spoken at length, YOU BET!! Does Joe respect the interests of buyers and sellers? A resounding yes! We recently purchased a home in Petoskey with the assistance of Joe after considering a variety of options. We felt well served, respected and listened to in ways that produced an excellent, timely result. Joe does not need my endorsement…but he deserves it!”

“Joe Blachy has handled three transactions for me…the sale of two homes and the purchase of a lot. In all cases, he had my best interest in the forefront. Joe is professional and persistent. His suggestions have been quite valuable. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone buying or selling a home. He certainly came through for me!”

I could write a book regarding Joe Blachy. First of all, Joe sold my home in less than 30 days for the listed price. He also found and sold a condo in Petoskey to me. Both were done in about 60 days!

I have sold 11 homes over my life so far. I never experienced any Realtor “taking care of business” anywhere close to what Joe provides. I couldn’t be more please.
