We had a great experience with the Holt Real Estate team. This was our first time buying a home and weren’t sure what to expect or what to look for in a real estate agent. Our lender offered to connect us with an agent who had experience with our loan type (VA loan) and we accepted. Jonathan contacted me within an hour with questions about what we wanted in a home and immediately had us set up into their portal with potential listings. Two days later we found our home, put in an offer, and had it accepted. Home buying can be stressful but the Holt teams was available anytime we had a question or needed guidance. They even met us for an extra showing so our son could see the home. We mostly worked with Jonathan but Joshua was there along the way to answer questions and offer his experience. Savannah sent us weekly updates on where we were at in the process and was quick to respond when I reached out. The Holt team made a very stressful process that much easier and I felt confident that they had my family’s best interests at heart. We will absolutely use them again in the future.

Josh was great to work with on my purchase of a new home! He handled a lot of the coordination with the builder to free me up. Highly recommended.

Turned a stressful process of buying a home into an enjoyable experience.

- Dillon D. (Buyer)

Joshua helped us purchase our first home. He is very knowledgeable and walked us through every step. He was willing to drive 1.5 hours one way to show us properties. He was available by phone, text or email and promptly replied to any issues or questions. He was also not pushy, which I definitely appreciated. I will definitely recommend Josh and his team if anyone I know needs a Realtor in the Stoughton/Janesville/Madison area!

Excellent Marketing is the REAL key to selling your home and if you are looking for a realtor who markets your home ABOVE AND BEYOND the rest, then JOSHUA HOLT of KW is the realtor for you. Josh marketed my property to unlimited websites with normal professional photos and a virtual tour. Plus, he took it to another level of marketing by using a 3D program. Absolutely Awesome! You must see it to believe it! Like I previously stated, Josh is the one to get the job done!!!

Josh was extremely helpful and understanding with our move and helping us find a home. We used a VA loan and we were moving from states away and he was always so helpful and patient when we had any delays or questions.

Josh is the most professional and knowledgeable realtor my wife and I have ever worked with. He was extremely responsive, always made time to answer questions and went way above and beyond what we expected for a realtor. Buying a home is stressful, but having Josh on our side was the best decision we ever made. We will absolutely be using him again, and referring any friends and family in the Madison area to use him!

It's been 16 years since I last purchased a home. Joshua was wonderful to work with. He explained the local market and assisted me with finding homes that met my needs. Once I decided on a home he assisted me with the facts I needed to make an accepted offer. His network of professionals included bankers, home inspectors, etc. I was extremely pleased with his professionalism and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

For anyone looking to purchase in the Madison area Joshua Holt was exceptional to work with! He listened well, researched lots of information without having to be asked, focused on us. Highly recommend!!

- Beth and Tony (Buyer)

I was renting out a condo that I owned in Stoughton, when my renters decided not to renew their lease I decided it was time to sell my investment property! Originally I had wanted to use a flat fee service and do the majority of the work myself, it was the best way to make the most profit – but when Josh messaged me and asked if I would meet with him I figured it was worth a shot – I know NOTHING about real estate! When we met, he came prepared with lots of paperwork including comparible properties in the area that had sold and a print out showing me the potential profit based on the sale price. The best thing Josh did was provide proof of comparible sales, because he recommended that I list $15,000 MORE than I was intending to list. My property was vacant – Josh held 3 open houses the first weekend it was listed and I accepted an offer of $1500 OVER list price ($16,500 over what I was planning to list at) on the 4th day it was on the market.

When I was searching for a new place to live in June, I happened to be put in the capable hands of Joshua at Keller Williams. I was panicked and didn’t have much money to buy a place and he constantly reassured me about how he would do anything to help me find a place or with anything I’d need. The very first day I went looking for a Condo with Joshua, I wanted to see a number of places but figured Joshua had other appointments and would never have time to show me different places. But, I was wrong for Joshua took me to every place I wanted to see and even back to a place we already looked at just to make sure. Well, the place we saw again was what I could afford and we made an offer on it. We even made a lower offer to see if it would be accepted. It was accepted and the ball was rolling. I was then getting more nervous each day as the offer was accepted. Frequently I would get a reassuring call from Joshua calming my fears about finances.

Josh Holt made buying my first home a walk in the park. He focused on what my priorities were in a property, and he always made me feel like his #1 client/priority. Josh has a plethora of real estate knowledge and a passion for finding the right match for his clients. He was very timely in all responses and PROactive in our search. He made sure my interests as a buyer were protected and that I felt comfortable. Josh treated me like family. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! If you’re looking for the best...it’s Josh Holt Real Estate Team!

When my husband and I started talking about buying a house I wanted to work with a realtor that I could trust and I immediately thought of Josh Holt. Josh is an amazing realtor. When buying your first home everyone makes the process look so easy from finding the perfect home to getting financing. But that is not at all the experience we had. I think we hit about every bump in the road but Josh was amazing through this process from keeping us posted via phone call or text message to just being there for moral support. Josh was also awesome about meeting on our time. My husband works 2 retail jobs so finding time to meet with Josh sometimes had to be scheduled out and he was so good about getting times that worked for us and working them into his schedule even if it was a phone call while he was driving home at night. No doubt if we decide to sell our house and find a new one we are going with Josh again!!

Joshua Holt was an amazing realtor. We worked with him as buyers in 2017 and sellers in 2020. He helped us purchase a beautiful condo for our family in 2017, and then helped us to sell it in 2020 as a result of moving out of state. Throughout the whole process Joshua was excellent at prioritizing us and our needs as a family in our home search, quick to get back to us and our questions, flexible in showing us homes on the weekend/evenings, and overall just a great, experienced realtor who knew the process of buying and selling a home inside and out! We highly recommend him as a realtor - you will not regret working with him!

Josh Holt made my home buying experience truly stress free amidst all of the choices we had. We were between buying and building and he used ALL of his resources to ensure we were fully informed and all of our needs were met. He was so kind and accommodating and truly worked at all hours for us, as I’m sure he does for all of his clients. He’s veteran friendly with a lot of knowledge regarding VA Home Loans, and definitely knows his market overall. I could not have been more pleased. Thank you Josh!!!

We interviewed a lot of realtors and we actually started with someone else however that didn't work out. We called up Josh and he was more than happy to take on our home sale as well as ensure that we didn't have another experience like our last one. He talked us through everything when we got forms or documents and even wanted to meet in person to go over different things. That helped us feel more comfortable throughout the whole process. He would check in every once and awhile just to see how we were and if we had any questions. He also went above and beyond and checked to ensure that our house was safe and secure when we were gone on vacation. We would recommend Josh to anyone trying to sell a house, he's great!!

Joshua was available during the morning, afternoon, and evening any day of the week. This was helpful to us when we have questions at any time of day. He was always personable, professional, and caring. We appreciated Joshua's expert opinion as we navigated selling a home with him in record time. We trust him entirely and that is why we returned to Joshua to sell the home he helped us buy just a few years earlier- he's awesome!

We had handled our preceding real estate transactions without an agent, using a real estate lawyer to assist with the proper forms and closing processes. But since those transactions, so much has changed, technologically and certainly with current market conditions. So as we looked to sell our home, we felt that we needed an agent to help us properly market our home, and to help us rank the offers that now contain many more variables than just price. We did our research and interviewed three exceptional agents before selecting Josh. We didn’t feel like it would have been a bad decision to go with any of the agents we spoke with. But we also feel like picking Josh was clearly the BEST decision.
