Joni Renee Zalk

Real Estate Broker

I have always been a matchmaker, even at a young age, it resulted in several of my friends getting married. At 22, while pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in business, I bought my first house and renovated it. While finishing my Master’s degree, I bought another property, renovated it and rented it out.  I saw this pattern was going to continue, and it was natural to become a real estate broker and help others buy and sell houses, whether to live in and enjoy or invest and reap financial benefits.

I see my job is as a matchmaker; find you the perfect home that fits your needs and will make you happy in the long run. My goal is to make your real estate experience seamless, informed, and successful. Whether you’re buying, selling, investing, or renovating, I provide personalized guidance and expert advice every step of the way.

Testimonials

  • Joni was wonderful. She was persistent with advertising and marketing and imperitive at the closing as we were out of town and could not manage the transfer from renters to buyers. We can not recommend Joni enough. Her commitment to the process is carried out with integrity and professionalism.

    – Stephanie Sexton

  • Joni is awesome and I hope she can be my realtor again one day.

    – Jennifer & Aaron McLaughlin

  • We had a great experience working with SSF. Our agent Joni Renee was fantastic. She is transparent professional and an expert in her field. We are very happy with the services and guidance provided to us during the sale of our Boulder home. We will use SSF again.

    – Kristen Gafric

  • Joni was our realtor and we truly cannot say enough good about her. She was always pleasant incredibly proactive when we were very wary of an unpredictable market. She listed our house seamlessly with minimal imposition and was always sensitive to our needs and goals. Despite looking at many houses Joni never tired or lagged in enthusiasm or attention to detail.

    - Stephanie Sexton

  • My wife and I were looking to get out of our multi-level home and into a ranch. We connected with Joni on a personal level and she was quick to identify our other needs by spending some quality time asking appropriate questions. We were particular about what we wanted and Joni was very patient. She provided daily search results from the MLS and we finally located just the right home. We had not purchased a home in over 30 years so her guidance through the entire process was extremely welcome. Joni is very easy going and attentive and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home. We are so glad to have had her help!

  • I worked with Joni to purchase my first home. It was relieving to work with her because she is quite an authority about homes; she digs into houses' history to understand if there was any problem and even she points out structural problems if there is any. She didn't make us rush to make our decision; she helped us to see many homes that were not appropriate for our condition to help us decide what our priorities were. Moreover she has a good taste and she is able to give fantastic renovation ideas. I am happy that I worked with her.

    - Orhan

  • We tried unsuccessfully to sell our house by owner" and pretty much gave up. Joni came along had some suggestions on how to market it including pricing photos and staging and POOF! she got it under contract in three days. She also helped negotiate a few bumps in the road and took it through closing in a fun and professional manner. We would recommend her highly for both buyers and sellers."

    - Suzanne L

  • Joni helped me sell my house and purchase my next home. She was extremely helpful and was always able to answer my questions. I would recommend her for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

    - Michael M

  • Joni is a solution oriented realtor. I had a condo that had been weighing on me for over 15 years. I had been renting it but making very little for my trouble. She suggested I sell it and buy a house or perhaps 2. Was the right suggestion at the right time. Changed my financial outlook on owning rental properties.  Thank you Joni.

    - Aaron S

  • Joni is one of the most enjoyable and hard working agents I have known. We met when she knocked on our door and we were in the market to buy. From that point on she's been a great listener is patient and supportive and fantastic with the follow through. Her knowledge and experience enabled us to purchase properties in a very tough market. I highly recommend Joni for anyone looking to buy in the Boulder area.
