Success Stories

I had the pleasure of working with Ayana during my recent home-buying experience, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! From our very first meeting (over 1 year ago), Ayana demonstrated an impressive level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication. She took the time to understand our needs and preferences thoroughly, which made me feel confident that I was in the right hands. Throughout the entire process (we toured 30+ homes over 9 months), Ayana was always available to answer my questions, provide valuable insights, and offer guidance, making the journey so much smoother. She displayed an extensive knowledge of the real estate market, providing me with up-to-date information and strategies that helped me make informed decisions. Whether it was negotiating a fair price or giving advice on necessary repairs and requests, Ayana went above and beyond to ensure our best interests were always at the forefront. She was able to work around our chaotic schedule, moving from out of state and navigating the inconsistent schedules of our two children. What truly set Ayana apart was her commitment to negotiating the best possible terms on our purchase. Ayana was able to negotiate a total of $40,000 in seller concessions, including a new water heater, new HVAC, new furnaces, window repairs, and HOA fees. Her proactive approach and tireless work ethic made me feel supported every step of the way. She even provided references for our home inspection, HVAC, Window Repairs, Pest Control, and Painter! If you’re looking for a top-notch real estate agent who truly cares about her clients, look no further than Ayana Johnson with Rose Gold Properties. Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication – my wife and I are absolutely thrilled with my new home!

James E.

Ayana was our agent for a sale and a purchase. She is the consummate professional. She has surrounded herself with a great team, and they are all courteous, resourceful, and driven to get the best outcome for the clients they represent. Ayana is a tough negotiator! She was right by our side, guiding us through the negotiations to ensure we landed on the best deal. We have worked with other realtors in the area, and can say we will continue to only work with Ayana going forward. She is head and shoulders above other realtors. She has a positive can-do attitude, is thoughtful, listens to her clients, seeks creative solutions to challenges, and is there every step of the way for the transaction!

Margaret B.

Ayana did an excellent job working with my schedule, with all that was going on. She negotiated everything in my new home, including my blinds lol. Will definitely be using her services again shortly when I get ready to purchase again. I recommended her to friends, and they have purchased homes with her representation as well.
