The process of buying my first home was one of the most stressful experiences I can remember. However, Tammie helped me very much make the process as smooth as possible. She was open to going anywhere I wanted to go (some of these places I would not want to go again) she was always quick to respond to anything I needed and I felt like I was kept updated on everything going on between us and the seller. There was never a time when I felt like I wasn't being informed on what was going on or when I had questions that weren't being answered. The seller was not really very open to negotiating on prices but I felt like Tammie was doing everything she could to get me the best possible deal. I was very satisfied with how everything turned out and that she stayed in touch with me after closing to see how progress was going. I will absolutely request Tammie again for my next home buying venture.

We met Keith maybe three months ago if that long; we didn't know what we wanted to do. Whether or not we wanted to keep the home, or if we wanted to rent the home, or sell the home. The thing that impressed us about Keith was the fact that he was open, he shared so much information with us regardless is we were going to go with him to sell the home or not. He gave me homework to do, whether he realized it or not and once I saw his work on the photography of other sites and what he was able to do with our home it made me want to come to him and buy our home from him again, as nice as he made it look. The process was perfect, I dont think I could've written a script to make it any better. another thing I just thought of that we liked about Keith, and we met with a few other agents, [was that] Keith doesn't get in the way. He lets us drive and then takes over based on where we want to go and we have friends that are in the same situation that we are. They're selling and they're buying at the same time and we would tell them, "Keith is doing this," and they are like, "Well who is Keith because our agent isn't doing this and maybe we need to do that," so hopefully I'll be able to send them your way when their contract is over with. He wasn't pushy like when you go to a used car lot where you feel like they're trying to make their numbers as opposed to making you happy. We felt like we got that personalized and individual service that we needed.

I recently had to do a short sale on my condo. In the beginning, not knowing anything about the process of it I was overwhelmed and stressed out. Howard was there for me from start to finish (24/7) always willing to help me with any questions or problems that I ran into along the way. Keith did an awesome job with the photography of my condo. When I looked at my listing on their site I couldn't believe how much better the photos were compared to some that I've seen on other real estate sites. I had offers after the first 24 hours of it being listed thanks to their knowledge and professionalism. I could tell that they love what they do and take alot of pride in it. I will be using round table realty in the future, and I will definetly recommend them to all my friends. Thanks for the great experience!!!
- Kim Jolly
I just closed on my first condo; Howard here at Round Table Realty helped me in finding a place. He helped me look at the various other properties. He was attentive in returning my phone calls and being supportive. [He] Helped me entirely through the process and had great recommendations on home inspectors... and just the whole process from start to finish. I dont think I would've gotten nearly as good of a property as I did had I not had Howard as my advocate. So, go ahead and choose him if you're looking for a Realtor in Jacksonville.
- Ryan Purcell
Erica is such a good-natured person, we really enjoyed getting to know her. She is very generous with her time, showed us many homes in Jacksonville, FL. and she was kind enough to share her knowledge of the area to us West coast transplants. We changed our minds about Jacksonville and ended up a little further South (smaller city) but she was very gracious and understanding! We will always appreciate her patience with us in our search and hope to cross paths with her again in the future. I would definitely recommend Erica, she was a pleasure to work with!
- Linda L.
I have known Howard for about 10 years, and in that time, I have witnessed his passion and enthusiasm for his work, and never more so than when he co-founded Roundtable Realty. So, when my husband and I decided that we were ready to begin the search for a new home, Howard was the obvious choice for our realtor. Beyond our personal relationship, we trusted his experience and knowledge of the Jacksonville real estate market, and he did not let us down. Our search for a new home began over a year before we actually found the house that we ended up purchasing, and Howard was incredibly patient, letting us search at our own pace, but also available to us every step of the way. Any time I had a question, he returned my call/ email almost immediately (even if it was 10pm on Sunday night, or he was on vacation). He went out of his way to make the transaction as stress-free and convenient as possible, bringing documents to our home in the evening for us to sign. He was an advocate for us while we negotiated the deal on the home that we purchased (which was a foreclosure) and was extremely knowledgeable on the process of purchasing a short sale/ foreclosure offering great insight. He has also gone above and beyond for us to help get our previous home listed as a rental. I can't say enough about what a great experience we had working with him! Thanks so much, Howard. We love our new home!

If you are looking for a Realtor to help you find your dream house, Jody is THE BEST! I have been more than impressed with the advice, professionalism, responsiveness of her and the entire Kohlhaas team. She made the home search and purchase process fun and easy, and I'm a first time home buyer!

"Nina and Bill are the most genuine and courteous people we have met through this process of purchasing a new home in Florida.

I would highly recommend Nina and Bill Bay to anyone looking at homes in the area !!!! A++++"

Thank you for everything. We truly appreciate your hard work and dedication. You were very supportive throughout the roller-coaster ride we experienced during the entire process of selling our home. We made it to Daytona last night and as you can see from the attached photo we enjoyed a leisurely walk on the beach this morning.
We have shared with our friends how delighted we were in selecting Roundtable Realty to represent us in the sale of 8711 Sanchez Road.
Sincerely,
Dan and Lynda
- Dan and Lynda Hall
Erica is fantastic. She has the ability to understand your needs and wants and can deliver what you are looking for. She is professional but at the same time becomes your friend during the home buying process. She does not care about how much you spend, just cares about making sure you are happy and get what you want.

"Tammie Taylor handle the selling of my home better than anyone I could ever ask for. She was always there to answer my questions and handle any details I didn't understand. Tammie realized I had health conditions and she stepped in to assist me with all my needs. I thank God for her and I would truly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor."
- Erma Battle
No, thank you Round Table Realty for your upmost professional service. From start to finish you tackled every obstacle that arose and always exceeded our expectations. This wouldn't of been possible without you and the expertise that you brought to the table. Words cannot describe how happy my wife, Courtney Brown Boroff and I are with the final outcome. Y'all are the best in the business and highly recommend anyone who is looking for an outstanding realtor, to look no further than to Round Table Realty!

My name's Joel. I just boought my first house with Round Table Realty. It was the best experience of my life. Howard really walked me through it and really made it alot easier than I thought it was going to be.
- Joel Edwards, Coast Guard
This note is something I am so extremely happy to write. I have bought
and sold countless homes over the years, but working with Howard has
been a great experience. Due to the unfortunate situation of the sale
this could have been a harrowing situation. I was forced to do a short
sale of my property, last year 2011. I had heard all of the horror
stories about how people are treated by lenders. How they are
requested to submit forms and paperwork time and time again, just to
be served with foreclosure papers 6 months later, because the customer
was not taken seriously by the Lender.
I can honestly say the Good Lord was at my back when I was referred to
Howard by my Financial Adviser. I didn't have to deal with the lender
at all. The whole process was handled by Roundtable Realty.
Considering the complexity of this process it was an incredibly easy
experience.
I wish everyone going through this awful experience could have the
opportunity of working with a this knowledgeable and capable group of
people.I recommend Howard and his company to all who are interested in
a truly incredible experience;.
"Integrity, Compassion and Understanding" is their motto.
Thank you so much Howard & Company
- Donna Marino
Another fantastic experience with Bill and Nina! Nina was so great with helping us see every home we were interested in, including our dream home. Bill was so knowledgeable about everything and seemed to thoroughly enjoy sharing his knowledge with us dummies. Both were great throughout the entire process and made it so smooth and easy for us. I would HIGHLY recommend Bill and Nina for buying and selling!
Bill and Nina were fantastic! They took care of everything and more for our sale. They were always in contact with us and we never had to worry about anything. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

If you want a realtor who is honest and knowledgeable and easy to deal with contact Erica Jolles. She will absolutely help to make the home buying/selling experience the best it can be.

I just wanted to say thank you for helping us sell our rental home at 1061 Waterfall Drive. I know you did not meet me but you helped my Dad, Ralph Currey, and my sister on the selling and buying of their homes. With my husband and I not being in Jacksonville, you helped us out tremendously by taking care of the property. We are grateful for the trustworthy, hardworking person you are and for selling our rental so quickly. Thank you for your help, we really appreciate it! Sincerely,
- Randi and Rob Hall
I have no words to express my appreciation and respect for Nina and Bill. They ensured I was taken care of and their kindness has no measure. I recommend Nina and Bill without reservations and if I should need a Realtor in the future it will certainly be them!
- Gloria Mendoza
We were and still so grateful to Bill and Nina Bay for helping us in selling our home. With their encouragement and timely advice and calmness. They were always available from contract to inspections to closing. We felt so at peace about the whole thing, mainly because of having them as ours realtors. We felt we couldn't go wrong. Their steadfastness and wise counsel was very appealing and satisfying to us. We are thankful for their professional knowledge and the careful way they applied it. Bill and Nina listed and sold our house very quickly and because we had to move out to relocate out of town, they handled the entire process and continually checked on our home throughout the closing process and they also helped us with our new home out of town by referring us to a Realtor in the city that we were relocating to.
- Lisa and Carlos
Frank was excellence in every way. We put a lot of demand and pressure on him and he meat them every time. It seem like that we were the only clients he had but we new that he had other clients. His input were spot on in all instances and there were hardly any problems unless we ourselves created them which he solve them right a way. He help out with suggestions of movers which was top notch, also if we needed to store our house hold items he gave us names of companies that we could look at. We were very glad that we choose Frank Whibley for our house selling and also buying a house. We cannot say enough about our good experience we had with him. We could go on and on about Frank but it would be just the same praise over and over again, so if anyone needs a realtor that I know then we will highly recommend him. Thanks.
- Maria & Delma Penn
"Two is better than One" No better way to sell your home than using Bill and Nina Bay. They helped us sell our home in just 1 week ! Their reputation and service is second to none! We thank them for placing our family in the perfect community and home when we purchased a new home.
- The Alvarado Family
Bill and Nina are amazing! They came with a strong marketing plan, which worked beyond our wildest hopes (especially since our home had sat on the market for over five months with a different realtor). Two days after listing with Bill and Nina they got us THREE OFFERS!! While we don't intend on moving again any time soon, we wouldn't hesitate calling them if we ever do. They are helpful, caring, and masterful experts!! I cannot recommend them enough!!
- Natalie M.
Tammie was very helpful in helping me checkout several places in Jacksonville and looking over my options as I was visiting the area from New York. After getting in contact with her and reviewing several properties we have picked out at the office we were able to find the place which I ended up purchasing. The closing process was all done electronically as I was back in NY but the communication throughout was very great providing all the documents and information needed to complete the purchase. I would highly recommend Tammie to anyone in need of assistance in buying or selling a home.
- Olga Novak
- Nick & Colby Mascaro
We have worked with Bill and Nina through 3 real estate transactions and couldn't have been happier with the entire process of all 3. They eased the stress of each transaction and walked us through everything, never making us feel as though we were wasting their time (as we have had happen in the past with a previous realtor). We have and will recommend Bill and Nina every time!
- Amber G.
We would like to thank Howard Flaschen for his impeccable service. His background in real estate as well as building construction puts him many notches above the average realtor. He was ALWAYS very responsive to calls, emails, and texts. He made himself extremely available (which helped us so much because of our hectic schedules). Howard's fast work and expert advice enabled us to win the bid on the house of our dreams. We can not thank him enough. I would recommend him to any one looking for an honest, hard working and knowledgeable realtor. Thanks again Howard!
- Amber & Paul Napier
Working with Frank was a pleasure. He accommodated house hunting around my limited time while visiting the Jacksonville area and scheduled as many houses to view as possible. After the first time out he got an understanding of what I was looking for and made suggestions on houses based on my comments. Being new to the area, Frank showed me to some nice neighborhoods and I appreciated his honest candor. His patience paid off and we found exactly what I was looking for.

Our story started about 5 weeks ago. We wanted to sell our home and we had another home, fully paid for that we wanted to move into but we were worried in this market about prices. We were worried about being able to move our home. Howard came to our house, sat down and explained the whole process to us. He was professional, he showed us exactly what our options were, and within 5 weeks our home was sold and we are closing. We really were not familiar with the home prices because of the economy. Howard sat down and explained to us and put the data out in front of us. He showed us what our home was worth, he showed us exactly what we could get for it. Oddly enough it came within $200 [of what we thought we would get]. In the future we are going to be buying homes as investment and we will be going with Round Table Realty. They made it a very fun experience. Its not like one of those big warehouse, real estate agencies, where you're just lost in the numbers. Its actually a very personal thing. You're part of the family at Round Table Realty... Exactly.
- Jonathan & Melina Haupt
I very highly recommend Erica Jolles to anyone looking for a top notch real estate professional. She helped me narrow down neighborhoods, sort through homes, consider all the advantages and disadvantages, get through all the paperwork and forms, make the difficult decisions and ultimately helped me obtain an excellent home at an excellent price. She continues to follow up on the purchase that I made to make sure things are going well. Her experience and skill combined with a great personality and dedication to both the client and the profession make her one of the best.
- Marcus B.

Whether you are buying or selling a home, you MUST call Jody Caputo. I guarantee that she is unlike any Realtor you've ever dealt with. My husband and I are thrilled that she is handling both the sale of your current home and the purchase of our new one. She is honest, trustworthy, very knowledgeable, master at marketing, always "on call", truly listens to your wants and needs and that's just the shortlist of why she's so awesome. She cares about her clients like I've never known or heard of any other Realtor to do. Thank you, Jody!
This was our second time working with Howard. He's the only agent we will ever use. Howard, unlike many realtors you will come across, is in it for all the right reasons. He talks the talk AND walks the walk! He sold our first house and was there every step for the build of our second home. For us, the thing that puts Howard above everyone else is he makes it personal. Its never about business for him. What agent invites you to his home for a cookout? When we did have an issue with the builder, Howard always made sure that it was a painless situation that we all dealt with together. It was never a buyer/builder problem, Howard made sure he was "in the know" at all times and made sure that his customers were always satisfied with the result. He promptly attends all meetings and makes sure his clients have a clear understanding of each process during the build. Our experience with Howard can simply be summed up using Round Table's motto, "people before property." And he truly stands by this. Thank you Howard! Couldn't have and wouldn't have done it without you!
Bought a Condo home in 2015 in Sunbeam, Jacksonville, FL.
My wife and I were extremely fortunate to have Howard Flaschen with RoundTable Realty as our buying agent. Howard expertly navigated us through every step, enabling us to find exactly what we were looking for, staying within our budget, and helping us to seal the deal with ease. With Howard, it was like we were visiting houses with a friend that just happened to really know his stuff about the Jacksonville, FL. real estate market. He always had our best interest in mind. Once we found the house we wanted, Howard worked magic with helping prepare the offer to make it as compelling as possible. It worked too, we got a steal of a deal on this condo. Thank you for all you have done Howard! I highly recommend you to anyone that is looking for a buyers agent.
- Antonio Barroso
We had the best home buying experience with Erica and I recommend her to everyone that I know who is looking to buy real estate! From the first minute that I talked to her on the phone, I knew she was going to be the realtor we would want to work with. She is a VERY knowledgeable and honest realtor to work with. We were first time homebuyers and had a very strict time limit to find a new home. I was on a work trip in Hawaii when the perfect house came on the market. My heart sank because I was out of town and I knew it was going to go fast. Erica suggested that she show me the house the very next morning via FaceTime. I was very excited to learn that she was willing to think out side the box and go out of her way to accommodate us. We put an offer in the same day and got a contract. If it wasn't for Erica, we would have lost out on the home we wanted. If you are serious about buying a home and want a good and honest realtor that will do anything in her power to get you in the home you want, then you need to contact Erica.
- Nick P.
Navigating through the real estate process is a stressful endeavor with many highs and many lows. Complicate the process with foreclosures, short sales, bond programs, and lender inertia and the process becomes even harder. We were so fortunate that we found Keith and Howard at Roundtable Realty. This 8 month journey had so many twists and turns that it seems surreal looking back. As much as we were all interested in a quick close, it did not happen that way for us. There were many weekends spent looking at homes with Keith or Howard. We actually felt guilty for taking up their weekend time and at the end wondered if they really wanted to work with us since we had had one too many deals fall through for one reason or another. These guys stuck by us and didn't give up on helping us find the perfect house. Howard and Keith are true professionals with what they do. It isn't only about their knowledge of the market, or being able to guide a homebuyer along the path with genuine and authentic regard for the homebuyers needs, it is how these two guys treat people...with kindness, respect, and perseverance. Saying thank you just isn't enough.
- Melody & Michael Mickeletto
I didn't realize how much I needed a good realtor until I met Erica. She was always willing to through out possibilities of why a house woudn't work for me and encouraged me look at each house from several viewpoints and to be patient throughout the process. She delivers quality, personal service to her clients and demands the same from everyone else involved in the process. Erica helped me buy the right house for MY family...not just A house. I recently had a question about my house -- seven months after closing -- and she got right back to me. She'll be there for you and will not let you down.

Being a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I understand what it means to be there for your clients and to be supportive of them; however, Howard Flaschen, is a broker that exudes what being supportive really means. I was in desperate need of selling my home that was in a great location but not the best condition. Once he listed my home, there were 10 showings within 5 days, and several offers. Howard helped me immensely with the whole process of selling my home, explaining the needed measures to be taken, the pros and cons of each offer, and making the paperwork easy each step of the way, getting e-signatures, etc. I am forever grateful to Howard for his dedication, support and guidance throughout this process of selling my home. Needless to say, I sold my house and received from the great equity I had in my home, but only because of Howard’s skills, expertise and exposure in the Real Estate market at Round Table Realty.

It was a pleasure working with Round Table on the short sale of my
home. Keith and Howard's help was greatly appreciated throughout the
difficult process. Their experience in the industry, and more
specifically, their knowledge and sincerity in explaining what I
should expect was comforting, as I knew I was in good hands. I should
know, I used them to both buy and sell my home.

After having such a pleasant experience on the RoundTable website, we met up with Howard to see what Jacksonville had to offer us. We went from contract to closing on an FHA mortgage in just over a month! With Howard's past construction experience, he isn't afraid to point out houses with potentially troublesome floorplans, structural money pits, etc. He learns your personal tastes and individual needs to the point where he actually knows what you need better than you do. He's a true consultant of his trade, and not simply a yes-man with MLS access that are so common these days. RoundTable is a fresh, alternative re-imagining of an industry dominated by technologically-challenged hucksters.
- Chris B. & Stacie C.
I rated Erica at 5 stars because she earned all of them. She was excellent, honest, trustworthy, never pressured us into anything, and always put our best interest ahead of everything (and I genuinely mean that). We had a long process of looking for a house to buy because I was very particular about what I wanted. Throughout that time, Erica was incredibly helpful, patient, always eager to show us houses, and continuously sending us prospects that came on the market right away. She gave us thoughtful insight and honest guidance on every house we looked at. When we did select a house to buy, Erica was a great negotiator and on top of everyone involved in the process to make sure we got to closing as quickly and smoothly as possible. There were a number of issues with the physical condition of the house that Erica helped us work out with the seller. Erica was recommended to us by friends and we couldn't be more pleased with her service. She often went above and beyond, made herself available to talk real estate day and night, and is a kind and caring person. I highly recommend you call Erica if you are considering buying or selling real estate in Jacksonville. You will be very pleased as we are if you decide to select Erica as your real estate agent.

We want to express our sincere appreciation for the outstanding service Bill & Nina Bay provided us in the recent sale of our home in Jacksonville. We say without hesitation the service we received from Bill & Nina was nothing short of OUTSTANDING! The stress and challenges associated with selling a home while living in another state can be overwhelming at times and Bill & Nina handled virtually everything for us making the entire process less painless and more pleasant. They went above and beyond what is expected and/or required including; inspecting the home when our former tenants vacated, detailed and documented damages with photos, assisted in identifying general repairs & lawn service providers and inspected work performed by the different service providers. Marketing materials used were professional and included beautiful photos taken personally by Bill and Nina; another detail nothing short of perfect! Within 8 days of listing our home, we had 4 offers and accepted a contract and closed on the sale less than 30 days from the date we listed. They communicated updates daily and interfaced directly with the buyer's agent, title company and lender again making the entire process so much easier than it could have been if we had listed with someone else.
[We] Love our neighborhood and our neighbors. We got really lucky moving into our house, on a culdesac, with great neighbors and kids. Sitting out on the patio in this weather... doesn't get any better than this! Fall neighborhood cookout, coming soon!
- Florinda Reimer Lopez
We had moved across country to Oregon and were selling our home in Jacksonville. All of our concerns about managing a house 3000 miles away were eased by our Realtor. Keith Francis with Round Table Realty looked after our house like it was his own. When a storm downed a large tree limb in the yard prior to a home inspection, he had it quickly removed and at a reasonable price. When the eventual buyer’s mortgage company was having problems completing the sale, Keith went above a beyond, taking the lead and working with their lender to move the sale forward.
Thanks Keith, for making the selling of a long distance home much easier than we thought it would be.

Not only did Frank help me purchase my home in Mandarin, he also helped me sell it. When I told him I was interested in selling my place he came out and provided me with information on what had sold in my area. He came up with a game plan on how we could sell my house quickly and the first day it went up for sale we had buyers interested. Frank kept me informed every step of the way. The process was great and I appreciated all of Frank’s help.

I was referred to Erica by a friend in church whose home Erica successfully sold. During our first meeting I quickly became aware of Erica's quintessential professionalism as well as her genuine concern for what my goals were in order to achieve a successful relocation and purchase of our "forever' home. Always available for showing a prospective home, giving current marketing information as it related to the areas we were interested, Erica was also caring and understanding of the various stressors associated with purchasing a home for folks new to the area. Erica was always honest with her answers and always kind and encouraging. Our preparation for closing was flawless and the closing went without a hitch. Erica also networks with only the best professionals who she generously referred us to as the need arose. We feel she and her family are part of ours now and always will be.

Howard, we cannot begin to thank you enough for all you did to guide us through our home buying experience. Your high level of professionalism, market knowledge and construction expertise made the process that much easier. We appreciate your willingness to genuinely listen to our requests and needs to ensure we found the perfect home. Thanks for being available, even while on vacation, to quickly, and patiently, answer any of our questions to ensure our well-being during the long process. We were always confident that you were keeping us well informed. And, your behind-the-scenes support with our bank and the seller’s realtor was a true testament that you had our best interest above all else.
Thanks again for consistently going above and beyond. We are certain that we could not have had better representation, or a better experience. We are so happy in our new home!

We loved everything about working with Erica! We were looking for our perfect home - the "one" - for a while, in different parts of Jacksonville and she was always a joy to work with. She was also incredibly good (and patient) with our girls (2 and 4 at the time), who were not used to houses with stairs, having grown up in apartments, so would rush up the stairs as soon as we entered! Erica would go up with them to keep them out of trouble so my husband and I could take in the ground floor in our own time! Invaluable! Erica was also on top of every detail when we found the "one" and knew all the right questions to ask, all the details to check and made sure that we knew exactly what we were paying for. We would highly recommend Erica and have and will continue to refer others to her. Thank you so much, Erica!

I am a first time home buyer and had a lot of questions, and Jody was more than helpful every step if the way.

It was a great pleasure to work with Round Table. Howard was always available when I needed him and he was quick to research any new houses or areas. I really felt like Round Table worked with me as a team and I never felt like my opinions or thoughts were taken lightly. The actual purchase of my home was very smooth and any concerns I had a long the way were always addressed promptly. Overall the whole experience was very comfortable and I believe I got exactly the house I wanted. I would definitely recommend Round Table to my friends!

Our experience with Howard Flaschen and Round Table Realty was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we met with Howard to discuss the sale process of our first home we knew we were in good hands. Howard and Round Table took on a difficult sale and helped with what seemed like an overwhelming process turn out to be a very smooth and painless transaction. Howard's passion, professionalism, and attention to detail made it an easy choice for us to have him on our side for the construction of our new home. Happy we chose Howard and Round Table and wouldn't have it any other way if we had to do it again! Thanks Howard!

Liza is one of the best realtor I have ever worked with. She is very consultative, knowledgeable- knows the market very well and a very pleasant lady to work with. What impressed me the most is her desire to understand your needs, budget and help you make the right decision. It’s surprising that you don’t find such high quality realtor like Liza these days. I had no clue about Jacksonville market and wasn’t sure where and how to invest in a new place. I engaged Liza’s service and from there on my effort to find the right property was a great experience. She guided me , provided a lot of information about the market with lot of facts that helped me narrow down great properties and negotiated a great property for me. I was able to accomplish all this sitting in CT. I will strongly recommend that you should engage Liza’s service and I can assure you that you will find no better and thorough professional than Liza. I will engage her service in the future for sure.

We called Erica after being disappointed with other real estate agents. We were thoroughly impressed and Erica went above and beyond to exceed our expectations. If you need someone that will make your home buying process as easy as possible, call her today!
Bought a Single Family home in 2015 in Beauclerc, Jacksonville, FL.
Howard cares more about his clients than he does about the sale. He proved that to us over and over again, showing us the value in he properties we viewed, as well as the issues we might encounter with some others. He also knows so many other realtors in town, which made our buying experience was incredibly relaxed. He helped us get funding, explained ever step of closing to us, and even showed up with gifts at our new house. We never could have purchased a home without him!

We were referred to Bill and Nina Bay by an area builder whose homes we loved and were eager to buy. Knowing how many real estate professionals this builder works with on a regular basis, we knew Bill and Nina had to be great agents to earn that builder's praise and recommendation. Bill and Nina helped us quickly list and sell our home while finding us an amazing resale of the floor plan we fell in love with from the builder who originally referred us. In buying and selling a half dozen properties in the last 10 years, none have been as smooth or as enjoyable as these two home transactions were, working with Bill and Nina. Their attention to detail, ability to stay on top of deadlines and the fine details of contract negotiation are second to none. We cannot recommend them highly enough, Bill and Nina are the best of the best. Thank you Bill and Nina for a fantastic experience.

So...we're getting settled in our new home. It doesn't look like a storage unit threw up in it anymore!! We are loving living in Julington creek, we have awesome neighbors and love our home....even starting on some redecorating!! THANKS A TON....if we had it to do again, we would have help from Round Table Realty and Howard Flaschen absolutely!! It was amazing to have a realtor that was more interested in the perfect house for us, rather than selling a house!!!!

My name is Linda Sepulveda and I was referred to Round Table Realty by the satisfied homebuyer Julie Benedeti. Julie recommended Frank Whibley from Round Table because of his outstanding service!
From the moment I met Frank Whibley I was impressed! His knowledgeable, polite, and professional mannerism could not be matched! Frank went above and beyond throughout the whole process of looking and purchasing a home. I trusted Franks input, suggestions, and advice regarding any property we came across. He even designed my own portal on the Round Table Realty to view homes of my preference. The Round Table Realty website is phenomenal!
I consider Frank Whibley to be one of the most wonderful, honorable, and genuine people that I have ever met in my lifetime! I feel very fortunate to have had him as a realtor! I recommend Frank to anyone that I come across as a “potential” home buyer.
My experience with your realtor Frank Whibley is something that I will always remember! Due to unforeseen circumstances, my home purchase did not go through but, Frank’s performance cannot be overlooked!
I would like to commend Frank Whibley for his wonderful service to me and Round Table Realty for the opportunity to purchase a home. In the future I will return to Round Table Realty and request Frank Whibley as my realtor, because he is the BEST! Please consider Frank Whibley as outstanding realtor of the month and year! He deserves many rewards for his outstanding service!
Thank you for your time!
Sincerely,
Linda Sepulveda

During the sale of our property, many complex issues arose, and if not for Bill and Nina's market knowledge, professionalism, and tireless efforts, we would have never been able to get the deal done. Less experienced agents would not have been able to deal with the complexity of the issues with faced. Our thanks to Bill and Nina for always being available to address our concerns and placing our interests first. We are forever grateful for their perseverance and highly recommend "Team Bay" to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Hi, Im Maria and this is my husband James and we met Howard back in February of this year. We decided to buy our first house and had a lot of trials going through it but Howard really fought for us. we really appreciate it and ended up getting the best deal we could for our house. It was the best experience with Howard. He fought for us and got us the best deals and walked around every time we had a walkthrough and made sure evrything was perfect for us. He saw things that we didn't see and we thank Howard for everything. Thank you!

I wanted to drop a note to say THANK YOU for all of your help and patience with our home purchase of 218 Citrus Ridge! Tom and I are thrilled with the new home. We understand it has been a long process, but we really appreciate you taking the time to work with us, even with the coast to coast time difference, and with the cancellation of our first buyer! My biggest compliment and thanks comes from you ALWAYS being available, and extremely efficient with everyone's time. You have been extremely responsive and we truly appreciate it! We would love for you to come by once we get settled and see the new home! We will be more than happy to provide your name as reference to any family/friends who may be looking to purchase in the area! I'm glad this process is over, but thanks again for getting us to where we needed to be!

My brother and I chose Bill and Nina Bay as the realtors to sell our mother's riverfront home. At the time they were working for one of the largest real estate companies in the area. We felt that this would be a positive for helping the house sell. I had absolutely no experience in the procedure involved with this process. Bill and Nina thoroughly guided us in the whole process. While the house was under contract to be sold a hurricane did some damage to the structure of the house. Bill and Nina assisted us in hiring a general contractor to complete the repair. We were very happy to have had such professionals to assist us in this endeavor.
- Joe Butler
Jody was able to listen to all my personal needs and requests when I put her to task at finding my 65 year old Mother a home here in Jacksonville, Florida. My Mother was moving from the Atlanta area and Jody was able to locate a beautiful home in a Community that was affordable and fit my Mother's personal needs and desires. Thank you, Jody for also making this experience so fun and pleasurable!
- Rees
We would highly recommend Bill and Nina Bay. They are very organized, thorough and detailed. Our expectations were exceeded and we would not hesitate to refer them to family or friends.
- Sharon and Stewart

We were very lucky to find the Bays. Amazing professionalism, attention to detail and market knowledge. They did an exemplary job of helping us find the right builder and floor plan that fit our needs and also sold our house in 3 1/2 weeks in Durbin Crossing!
- The Taylor Family
My wife and I learned that we were relocating to Jacksonville in conjunction with a work promotion. We were initially looking at renting, but were not sold on the idea of signing a lease. I needed to be in Jacksonville for a few days to do some preliminary business and we decided to look at some houses on the market to see what was available. We met Frank in the morning and, together, toured many houses over the next couple of days. We were immediately impressed with his flexibility and willingness to help us explore possible homes and neighborhoods.Ironically, after all the homes we saw, the second house we looked at was the perfect fit, and we decided to make an offer. Frank was there to assist us every step of the way.We were a bit nervous as we had never been through the process before, but Frank earned our trust and made sure that our best interest was always at the forefront of all that was done. Once the contract was signed, Frank helped us to close on our new home in less than 30 days (over the Christmas season), which was huge since we would have had to find other arrangements in Jacksonville if not for the early closing. Frank has kept in touch with us since we moved in to see how we’re doing and has always made us feel that he was there for us no matter what we needed, home related or otherwise. The best thing about Frank for us was that we knew he cared about us. To Frank we weren’t just important as a transaction, we were important as people, and that meant a lot.
- The Moore's
Erica is amazing. From offer to closing was 6 weeks, and in that time we had so many obstacles! Erica knew how to handle each one and was already on top of it before we could panic! She handled big problems and small while keeping us calm at the same time. She was never pushy, and even pulled us back a few times encouraging us to take a moment and think about what we truly wanted. She's accessible, genuine, and she comes across like a big sister, who just happens to be a pro!
Working with Round Table Realty and Howard has been.... almost fun. He's made it as painless as a first time homebuying experience can be. He was there to answer our questions anytime, from 7 o'clock in the morning to when my fiancee would text him with an urgent question at 11:30 at night. Today we're closing and he actually caught a mistake on the closing papers which saved us about $250. When we're ready to rent our current house or we're ready to upgrade to a new house we'll definitely look up Howard and Round Table Realty.
- Ryan Scheck
My wife and I were first time homebuyers and were new to the whole process of home buying. We wanted a realtor who cared about us and what we were looking for in a home. We were so blessed to work with Erica as her professionalism and responsiveness separated her from her peers. She understood our schedule and constantly provided us with updates of new homes that just came on the market. She was patient with us as we evaluated options and continued to provide valuable insight and perspective on what to look for. I felt that she looked out for our best interests and made herself available as much as possible. The home we selected was a combination of us locating the community and Erica wisely recommending that we consider the home for a variety of reasons. Once my wife and I saw the home together it became clearer that this was the home we wanted for our family. I can honestly say that without Erica's foresight and judgment I'm not sure if we would have found this home simply because we were not looking at this specific model. Erica did a fantastic job of paying attention to important details and asking the right questions. Thank you Erica!
- Josh & Cheryl K.
Howard was extremely helpful, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic in trying to help put us in the right home for us. He even went to bat for us to get more floor plan options for our dollar. In the end we ended up getting all the options we wanted for several thousands less than the appraised value.
- John & Stacey Barranco
Erica Jolles and is great real estate professional. I have benefitted from her services and would highly recommend her. What separates her from others is her user-friendly approach. She really knows how to listen and connect with people to understand what their needs are and what they are seeking. This would apply for both buying and selling. Combined with good market knowledge and a willingness to go out of her way to help others, she provides solutions that fit and work.
- A.Goldstrom
Erica Jolles first responded to my inquiry through Zillow and has since become my trusted realtor. There are very few people who impress me with their dependability and professionalism and Erica is one of these people. If you're looking for an outstanding expert in the Duval and St. John's county real estate market, Erica Jolles is the one you want.

We can't say enough great things about Nina and Bill. We wanted to sell our home and had the hardest time doing so with a realtor we didn't know much about. We decided to use Nina and Bill and they sold our home very quickly!!!! Our house sat on the market for months. After letting our previous agent go, Nina and Bill sold it in under two weeks!! WOW!! That just showed us, that they really do know exactly what it takes to sell a home. We have never seen realtors who were as organized, professional, hard working, kind, and knowledgeable as they were. They answered every text, phone call, question, and email we had very quickly. We will never use another realtor other than Nina and Bill in the future. After using them, I can't see how anyone could compare. Thank you Nina and Bill for helping us sell our home and buy our dream home!!! We couldn't have done it without you!!!! They are the BEST so don't waste your time looking elsewhere! You won't regret using them!!

Frank was a great Real Estate Agent to work with long distance. I had been searching via the web for properties that I might be able to purchase for my retirement home, and he was there for every call and concern I had. He made my needs a priority and went over to videotape every room of the condo I was interested in and emailed me immediately to view. He also was extremely proactive in getting the deal closed once I had found the one I wanted and made the transaction process so easy. I would highly recommend Frank and I personally will be using his services in the future. One happy and satisfied customer-- Linda
- Linda Hays
As a first time home buyer I was wary and inexperienced about most of the process, but Erica was very honest and knowledgeable. She helped me search for a home that would suit both my picky needs and price range. Communication was easy with her through emails, text messages, and phone calls. She was always very responsive. Any question I had was answered very thoroughly, regardless of the time of day. When I finally found the perfect home she worked very fast to make sure I would land it at the price I wanted. She handled negotiating the entire deal very well. Erica was extremely patient with the buying process; we encountered several problems with the house/seller and she stuck with me the entire way until it was resolved. She will stand up for what is right! I am very happy in my home and with the service I received. I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home!

I'd like to take the time to thank you; Frank Whibley of Round Table Realty so very much for all of your help in the process of buying my house. You have been the most patient, helpful and honest person I've had the pleasure to do business with! There was not one time you were not there with me every step of the way from first contact to closing making sure that I understood everything and that everyone else was staying on task. You made the whole process very smooth and effortless! Your commitment to making sure that I had what I needed was above par. I sincerely thank you Frank Whibley for all you have done for me and highly recommend everyone buying a house to use you and Round Table Realty!
Very Sincerely,

I had a wonderful buying experience with Christian's help. He was fast at responding and was always professional. When it came to negotiating, he got our family what we wanted. He knew exactly what listings I was interested in and sent me the appropriate listings that I wanted to see...no fluff :) Fast sale :)Highly recommended!

When my wife and I were beginning our search for a condo in Jacksonville, we were at a special disadvantage: we lived several ...hundred miles away. Actually, we didn't meet Jody in person until we had been interacting online and by phone for several weeks. Particularly in light of the distance problem, we felt we needed a realtor who would listen to us, who would pay attention to our priorities and our budget. Even though we hadn't met Jody in person, we very quickly came to feel that she was OUR realtor. She was quick to understand the kind of apartment and neighborhood we were looking for, and brought to our attention the properties that best met our needs. Any time we had a question, she was extremely quick to give us a detailed and reasoned response. When we chose a condo and entered into a contract, she was always there for us, answering our questions and breaking what seemed like an intimidating process down into manageable steps. Jody has a warm and friendly presence, but she takes her responsibilities with the utmost seriousness and truly wants to make a positive difference in the lives of her clients. We give Jody our highest recommendation!

I would like to thank Howard Flaschen & Roundtable Realty for really being there for us when we needed it. It was extremely refreshing to find that they were interested in not just making money, but truly looking to be a help. We had come to a place where we were faced with the possibility of having to short-sell and lose our home or go with an offer our lender was making us. It was an easy case to be made to sell and walk away from our home. It would have been additional business for Roundtable, and I'm sure we would have been successful. However, Howard was more worried about us individually and what was best for our family. He spend a lot of time talking with us about our options and answering all of our questions. We are so happy that we talked to him, and would absolutely recommend Roundtable to any of our friends and family. They are good people with great integrity that are looking to help their neighbors and not just their bottom line.
Warm regards, Dave Rich

Howard & Round Table Realty are outstanding! If you're looking for knowledgeable, professional, and courteous service Round Table Realty will not disappoint. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our first home purchase experience. I would certainly recommend Howard to anyone looking to buy a home.

I spent several months working with Erica trying to find our new home in Jacksonville. She was very knowledgeable, patient, and easy to work with. We have had bad experiences in the past with other agents, and I could not be more pleased with Erica. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in the Jacksonville area.

When my wife and I decided to list and sell our home, my first call was to Watson Realty. Having used Watson previously in the sale and purchase of numerous homes, we knew it was the only agency we would work with. My call to the Watson Corporate Customer Service area was to ask for a direct referral to an agent whom I could interview; meet face to face; in order to ensure that our personalities would be in synch and obtain a comfort level of their knowledge and expertise rather than relying on a resume' - and to gauge the "personal interest" of the agent with respect to their willingness to work with us on our best interest or simply wanting to list a property for potential sale. Within almost two hours of my initial call, Nina Bay had returned my call. From simply a brief phone conversation, I knew I was speaking with a true professional; open and forthright; and straight to the point....all key traits that were extremely important to us. Needless to say, that call led directly into Bill and Nina meeting with us that very night and ultimately leading to our entering into our contract with them. Little did we know at that time what phenomenal professionals they are and how so very true they are to their word and what they say.
From our Thursday evening meeting; Bill taking photos of our home on Friday; the preparation of the brochures; the preparation of the video of our home being prepared for placement on the Northeast Florida's Realtors® Association website all happened by the weekend - little did we suspect that by 6pm on Monday evening following our Thursday night meeting - we would have a contract on our home!!! And to make matters even more special, I left Mandarin that morning at 4 a.m. for a trip cross country to California. Bill and Nina were tremendous. Even during my absence, they ensured my wife and I were both fully abreast of where everything stood with respect to our contract; next steps; inspections; and negotiations with the prospective buyer. Their communication with and to me; even though I was in route to the West Coast; could not have been any better than if I were still in Mandarin. Unbelievable professionalism. As we moved through the finalization of the sale and close, Bill and Nina truly led the way for us. Of all of the real estate transactions we have been involved in before; this was such a pleasure and worry free experience due to their expertise and leadership.
Should my wife and I ever determine that we are ready to enter into another relocation, there is absolutely no doubt where our call will go. And not just for the two of us, but for any of our family; friends; and those who may ask us for recommendations. Thank you to Nina and Bill for all you did.
- The Maddox Family
As first time homebuyers, we couldn't have asked for better realtors than Bill and Nina Bay. They went above and beyond the expected duties of a realtor to make our house hunting and purchasing experience smooth, easy, and fun! Bill and Nina were both extremely reliable, honest, and professional. We were highly impressed with their knowledge of and expertise regarding real estate. Because we were relocating here from out of state, they even offered to serve as our liaisons for inspectors and contractors to look at and work on our future home before we moved. We can confidently say that there are no better realtors in northern Florida than Bill and Nina Bay!
- Jen & Sean
Erica is absolutely wonderful- I can't say enough good things about her. We were relocating from a different city, so our time was limited and we had a lot of ground to cover during those short visits. Erica accommodated our schedule and spent as much time as we needed, seeing at least 30-40 houses with us. She even took the time to tour us around the city to help us get an idea of where we wanted to look before we even looked at a house. She was an amazing resource and my husband and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home

We couldn't have asked for a more reliable, responsive and proactive Realtor! Frank Whibley went above and beyond what we had ever imagined a great Realtor to be. The only thing he didn't do was pay for our house! Although we bought our house from over 600 miles away, we never once felt like we missed a thing thanks to Frank's hard work and dedication, which included pictures, videos, information derived from extensive research, his unbiased and honest opinion, responding within minutes to our emails/texts, working late at night (many nights) to help us find the right place, and even buying us a GE Personal Security Alarm System Kit for our house because we closed a month before moving in. The list can go on and on and on, but you'll just have to make him your Realtor to find out for yourself just what "People before property" really means! Thanks Frank!

Erica Jolles is an EXCELLENT real estate agent. I would highly recommend purchasing a home with her. She is extremely knowledgeable about real estate which makes her prepared and able to deal with all situations involved in the buying process. Moreover, she is amazingly connected and has a network of people in the community that are able to assist with anything that is needed; from getting a mortgage, insurance, or inspections to hanging a flat screen tv. Erica is available and knows who the best person for the job is. The thing that I liked best about working with her is that she found us a home not just a house. She knows the people and the city as well as its real estate.

"Btw- On a side note, Your agent Howard truly is the best around, he is the Rock star of Realtors! – You guys are very lucky to have him on your team! We are always happy when we work with Howard and every sales agent will tell you the same thing- he will always fight for his clients but never in an argumentative way, he is fair, reasonable and very professional- an all-around asset for all parties involved! He has a great knack to make us want to say yes to all of his requests, I suppose is the best way to describe it"

Frank Whibley of Round Table Realty was recommended to us by both a family member and a friend, both of whom had excellent experiences with him. He lived up to his reputation and his company’s “People before Property” trademark to say the least.
My fiancé and I were looking for a home to raise our newborn daughter and we were very picky about we were looking for. We had Frank schedule showing after showing for us, but couldn’t seem to find the right one. Frank never lost his optimistic attitude and constantly reassured us that we would find our forever home. We never felt pressured to choose and never felt like he had other places to be when he was with us. He treated us like we were his only client.
When we finally found the right home, Frank was quick with the offer and necessary paperwork. Any questions or concerns we had he was happy to answer and always easily accessible. We are extremely lucky to have had Frank on our side and attribute finding our house to him. We would recommend him to anybody and will ask Frank to be our Realtor for any real estate endeavors in the future. Thanks Frank!

Jody is by far the best Real Estate agent we have ever met. She has incredible attention to detail, excellent follow-through and is extremely kind and personable. Being an out of town buyer, we had certain concerns but your performance as our advocate was a true blessing and comfort. You have been incredibly gracious to us through the process and we are grateful for your kindness, understanding, patience and expertise. Thank you! We would highly recommend Jody to anyone looking for a Real Estate agent.

We recently purchased a townhouse in Florida with the help of Frank Whibley from Round Table Realty. The process went smoothly with Frank's assistance. Since we live in Connecticut, there were a lot of decisions that had to be made long distance. Frank was there every step of the way. He did several of the walk throughs for us and we couldn't have been more pleased with the results. Frank kept us updated and we trusted him completely. We highly recommend his services!

Buying a home is a very emotional, time consuming, and strenuous process. One that can happen in a few short months or one that can take years. Over three years ago, my wife and I made the decision to make Ponte Vedra our home. We lived in Pennslyvania and had the luxury of time. I initially worked with multiple agents all concerned about selling a house versus understanding the needs of the client. The entire time I was looking, I kept receiving very detailed information about my searches and home types based on technology driven from a very good company, Round Table Reality, But above all , it was driven by an agent that showed integrity and persistence. I then made a transformative decision, I called the agent Frank Whibley. From the moment I talked with Frank until this day, we hit if off.
Frank possesses a rare trait that more of us should have. He puts needs of others ahead of his own.
That was apparent in the three year process we went through. Frank was very patient with us and committed in ensuring that we found the right home. He never pushed, never gave up and stuck with the task at hand. Well it finally paid off, we closed in January and found that house of our dreams.
But wait the service did not end there. We still reside in Pa and the house needed a lot of items handled from setting up services to landscaping. Frank assisted in all of this. He volunteered to help in anyway possible. He did not just take the commission and go. He really cared and wanted it to be as seamless as possible.
Tammy and I have made a friend for life and I really mean that. Frank is very ethical and transparent. Above all, he is not afraid to tell you he doesn't know something, because he will always finds the answer. He fights for his clients and makes sure that his word is kept. I cannot think of a better agent. My wife and I have moved all over the world and have purchased numerous homes. Never have a come across a man like Frank.
So here is the simple statement: If you want an agent that will put your interests above his own, fight for you when needed, stay with you after the sell and not close and go. There is only one answer , Frank Whibley.

Sold a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $300K in Mandarin, Jacksonville, FL.
Howard is extremely knowledgeable and professional. His marketing of my home was so awesome, that it sold very quickly. He is straight forward with the facts, and a fun guy too! I enjoyed working with Howard and he handled every detail quickly and thoroughly. I would definitely recommend Howard to anyone looking for a true professional in real estate.
You will not find a better agent to work with than Joey Gabriel.......guaranteed! He does his homework and it shows! His knowledge, attention to detail, and quick responsiveness are just a few of his great qualities. No question that I would highly recommend Joey! Don't waste your time with an inexperienced agent just trying to make a quick sale. Call Joey! He truly cares about his clients and will always keep your best interest in mind. - userdrcercone1
Joey did an outstanding job helping us find and purchase a second home in Jacksonville Beach, FL. Every aspect of our purchase was coordinated long distance and Joey did an excellent job ensuring all details of the settlement went as smoothly and easy as possible. -usernamewebj
Joey helped me and my husband find our first home. We originally had a different realtor and mortgage company but things went south and we had to start all over. I contacted Joey and he helped us. He found a great mortgage company and we had no problems ever since. Joey has lots of experience andis very knowlegdable. He demonstrated EXCELLENT customer service, whenever I needed, he was always there. You could always reach him via email or text and he goes above and beyond! -usercustmlu
I am a first time home buyer and Joey was extremely patient with me; I never felt like he was judging my decisions or my lack of knowledge on the subject of real estate. He has a background in developing/ construction so he could answer questions and provide insight a lot of realtors couldn't. He made it easy and exciting, and I never had to stress. I changed my mind several times on several different issues, including deciding to back out on a contract. Even though this would mean having to go back to the seller and tell them his client was bailing on an almost done deal, Joey never pressured me to reconsider or stay in a contract I wasn't comfortable with. He showed me homes all over Jacksonville and was always responsive. In the end, we found a house we loved which had only been on the market for 1-2 days. Turns out that Joey had a working relationship with this seller which is probably the only reason the seller ended up accepting our offer. We found out after closing that the seller had multiple offers, including one above asking (which we didn't come close to), but the seller kept his verbal agreement with us because of his respect for Joey. Having a realtor that other realtors, AND developers know and respect made me confident that I would get the best deal because they all want to do business with Joey in the future. Joey also sold my brother's home and helped him get his new one. He is definitely the best realtor you can get. -userjwhitmr
There are not enough words to express our gratitude for Joey's knowledge and expertise during our entire home purchase process. From negotiating a great purchase price, to helping us keep our sanity while dealing with the loan process, to recommendations for other services needed, etc.....he helped us through it all!! This was our fourth time to purchase a home and we can honestly say that we have never dealt with a more competent realtor. Joey is also so friendly and professional. If you're looking for a realtor, Joey Gabriel should be your first choice. He will exceed your expectations and help you navigate through the home buying process with confidence. -usertrshray
Joe was a pleasure to work with. His industry experience, knowledge of the city, and patience made him a delight to work with. He responded very quickly to our questions and was able to throughly explain the complexities of the real estate process. He truly made purchasing a home easy. In the end, Joe helped us find and purchase a beautiful home in a very sought after neighborhood. I would definitely recommend Joe to anyone looking to purchase a home and appreciate everything he did for me and my family. -user42513
Joey helped us go to contract and close within 30 days!!! He negotiated the price down 10,000 from list price. He was excellent at responding to our many, many, many calls. Some when we were in major stressed out state. He was calm, patient and just an overall true pro. W cannot recommend him highly enough. Great job, Mr. Gabriel!!! -useraben23
When we decided to sell our home, we had an issue of choosing the real estate agent among the 4 agents we know. We picked up Joey based on his experience and excellent reputation in the real estate business. Beside, we knew him for long time. Joey is honest, active and flexible. He responds to emails, texts and calls immediately and tries different ways to meet your goal and satisfy his client. We highly recommend Joey to anyone who decides to buy or sell a property in Jacksonville or nearby areas. Thank you Joey again for great efforts. -userkh323
If you are looking for a home near or at the beaches, Joseph (Joey) Gabriel is your guy. He has an incredible wealth of knowledge of the area and the process, and his persistence is unmatched. He helped me buy my first home, and worked hard to make it happen because it was a short sale and there were a lot of variables involved. He helped allay all my fears, and talked and walked me through each step of the process to make things as smooth as possible. He knew to give me space when I needed time to mull things over, and he knew when to push when I need help making the right decision - the perfect mix to get things done efficiently but with peace of mind. He even helped get me in the house earlier than anticipated because my lease was up. He was there for me anytime I needed (even on his vacation!) and I can say, hands down, that I wouldn't have been able to make this huge life decision without Joey. Go with Joey and you will not be let down! -user223451
Joseph Gabriel was very highly recommended to us from several sources. Joseph was extremely quick in replying to questions or concerns, and was very proactive in all aspects of selling our home. We found Joseph consistently honest and transparent. Working with Joseph was a pleasure, and we look forward to working with him again for any future real estate needs our family will have. -user321415
Joey is the most honest, persistent, and responsive real estate agent in the world! May seem like a lofty claim, but it's true. :) Based on my initial experience w/ Joey, I referred him to MANY other people - all of whom love him. He responds to emails, texts, and calls immediately and he does it because he truly cares about YOU, about being the best real estate agent out there. I have worked w/ lazy agents, pushy agents, and dishonest agents in the past. Working with Joey is truly refreshing. He 100% only cares about getting you the best deal for YOU. He's never motivated to just close a deal or persuade you to consider homes which really aren't the best fit. Even after the sale, Joey has been there for support every time we've needed him - just as persistent and responsive as before the sale. My first experience w/ Joey was probably 3 years ago and I now consider him a good friend. If you're buying or listing a home, Joey is he only option! :) -usertestashl

Joey was great! My decision to go to him when I wanted to buy a home was based purely on the fact that I went to school with his wife. And it turned out to be the best decision! Joey was always available, his text back time has to be a record it was so quick, which was deeply appreciated. He really cared about me finding the right home, and it showed. I would recommend Joey in a heartbeat to anyone looking to rent/buy/sell/whatever else you could do with a house - aranchd
Joey is a great guy and even better realtor. Very knowledgeable and personable, answered all my questions promptly and put my mind at ease whenever I had any concerns. Wouldn't ever think of using anyone else. -userscoghln
My husband and I recently purchased our current home with the help of Joey Gabriel. He has been a trusted resource and consummate professional throughout all three of our house purchases. He shows genuine care and support for his clients, and professionally handles any situation that may arise. We have recommended him to other friends and family, and will continue to do so in the future. -ferraramn
Awesome agent! He has helped us with numerous real estate purchases. He works hard for you as his client and is very honest when working on the opportunity for you. I have worked with over 15 agents in the past 25 years and Joey is one of the best agents we have worked with. -davisr1

Nina and Bill are consummate professionals. In every step of our purchase, they knew exactly what needed to be done and how to do it. They advised us and guided us through the entire process and there were no questions they couldn't answer. Our purchase closed in an incredibly short time and we credit Bill and Nina with helping make this happen.
- Karen and Steve
I'm so excited to think that we'll be living in the complex that seems to suite us the best.
So looking forward to seeing you again.
After we come down again to have a look, do you have folks that would be able to paint, lay new carpet and not charge an arm and a leg??
I've already got some ideas for colors, carpet, etc.
WOWEE, I can't believe this is really happening thanks to YOUR EFFORTS.
- Wilbur & Lois Pike
We worked with Jody twice within a year. The first time she helped my family and I find a rental property, something not all agents will do. We were very impressed with her willingness to help us discover what area would be right for our family. The second time we worked with her we had another great experience, helping us find the house we now live in! If you are looking for a Realtor that really listens to you and will work for you and not settle for anything less than the best, call Jody!
- Stewart
My house purchasing experience went extremely smoothly with Howard at the lead. Howard made if feel as if I was his only client. Always quick to respond, always available on my time, and provides information about the complicated procedure in plain English! Thanks Howard for an easy transition into our new home!
- Larry and Jessica Chalmers
We loved everything about working with Erica! We were looking for our perfect home - the "one" - for a while, in different parts of Jacksonville and she was always a joy to work with. She was also incredibly good (and patient) with our girls (2 and 4 at the time), who were not used to houses with stairs, having grown up in apartments, so would rush up the stairs as soon as we entered! Erica would go up with them to keep them out of trouble so my husband and I could take in the ground floor in our own time! Invaluable! Erica was also on top of every detail when we found the "one" and knew all the right questions to ask, all the details to check and made sure that we knew exactly what we were paying for. We would highly recommend Erica and have and will continue to refer others to her. Thank you so much, Erica!
- Emily & Mark S.
Erica did a great job helping us find and buy our new home. She is very professional!! It took a while because we were looking for a specific type of property, but she stayed with us and was very patient.
- TGallaher
I highly recommend Bill and Nina for any realtor needs. They are true experts in their field and continually amazed us by going above and beyond in every way--from house hunting, house assessing, negotiation and getting settled in easily in a new city/area. You couldn't choose a better team.
- Catherine and Martin T.
Just a quick 'shout out' for anyone looking for a Real Estate Agent to list their home: Jody Caputo is the most dedicated agent we have ever dealt with. She is thorough, flexible, professional, caring. I could go on! She lets you know what are the important things for you to do to make your home desirable for buyers, and knows how to market it. I highly recommend listing with her!!
- Ramsey
Loved working with Nina and Bill. The recommendation for them actually came from a friend back in Kentucky. They had made such an impression on her when they sold her friend's home in Florida, I decided to hire them myself. Best decision ever!! Nina was always available and there was NO DOUBT that she was on our side! I highly recommend them if you have a home to sell.
- Kathy Martin
Erica is the best Real Estate agent ever! I had only bad experiences before, but she is all you hope you would find in one. She played it on our side all the time, never pushed us to make a decision, and even fought a couple or rounds for us when things were not working well in the other fronts. I would not be enjoying my house today if she had not been so knowledgeable, patient, and strong to push around and find alternatives when needed.
- CDaviaPayan
OK everybody.... I found the BEST real estate agent in the area! Much respect to Howard Flaschen from Round Table Realty and he is da bomb! I am LOVING Jacksonville so far. Got a lot accomplished and looking forward to being a Floridian!!
- Tamara & Dell Birch
Jody was willing to help with anything I needed. I had an unexpected showing one day and she came to my house to help get it "show" ready. What a lady!!! The only reason my house didn't sell was because we didn't relocate as planned. We did have several offers but chose not to accept them. When I decide to sell next time there is no question about whom I will choose, it will be Jody!
Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $200K in Green Cove Springs, FL.
Andrea was exceptionally helpful in finding the right home that met my needs and was in the price range I was looking for. We only had to view a couple homes before she knew exactly what I was looking for and helped me find the perfect place. She worked with me through all the financing to get the loan I needed and made sure everything was done on time and in a prompt fashion.
I have recommended her to multiple friends and family, all of which have bought homes with her help and none were disappointed.
If you are looking for the perfect Realtor to help with your buying or selling needs you should look no further than Andrea. She will do everything in her power to help you and get through the process with you with a smile on her face and proactive updates on all your needs and wishes.
- user3331868 re Andrea Brandt on Zillow
We had debated for quite some time to sell our home to move up to a new house in the same area. Having experience in an area matters. Bill and Nina put our minds at ease! We found Bill and Nina to be very knowledgeable in our area and gave us great input to guide us to our goal. They had our house under contract within 2 weeks! Not only do they have a great deal of knowledge within the real estate market but we found their technical expertise to be a great asset to us in building our new home. Bill and Nina have made our entire process so much simpler than we ever thought it would be.

Bill and Nina Bay went absolutely above and beyond any expectation we had for Realtors®. They were always informed and on top of everything, and kept us in the loop at all times when selling our home. We appreciate the quick sale of our home and would definitely use their services again and refer them to others.

Good morning,
Just wanted to say thank you very much to both of you for all of your help over the long journey of selling that house.

Jody is the most qualified agent I have ever come across in this industry. She listens to her customers and goes the extra mile to make sure she finds you the right home you are searching for. Not only is she there when you are looking for your home but she's there during and after the close. She truly cares about her Clients and I would highly recommend you use her as your agent. Jody gets beyond a 5 Star Rating by my experience!

"My wife and I came into the home buying process totally blind and not sure of what we wanted in a house. Nina and Bill took the time to educate us on what to look for in a home. We were definitely the couple that changed our minds several times, but throughout the process, Nina and Bill both were patient with us. I learned a lot on new construction from Bill and a tremendous amount on the financing side from Nina. Having them complete the walk-throughs with us before we closed saved us a ton of headaches down the road. I would endorse Nina and Bill to all of my friends and I'm looking forward to working with them again in the future on our next home."

Erica Jolles is a realtor who knows the market, knows the business, and knows her clients. In addition, she really cares about her clients and does everything she can to meet their needs and goals. Erica just does not find a house for a client. Erica ends up finding a home for a friend. Erica just does not sell a house for a client. She gives a friend a brand new start and opportunity. Erica earns and deserves a 5 Star Rating in each category: Local Knowledge, Process Expertise, Responsiveness, and Negotiation Skills. If you hire Erica as a your realtor, you will be better able to buy a home / sell a home and do it with great confidence!

Erica Jolles was recommended to me by a co-worker and friend. I contacted her to help me find a new home after outgrowing the home I currently owned. We went to various properties and finally found one we liked. We had a contract on the house, however after various issues with the home, we decided to not go through with the purchase. Erica was very understanding. Throughout the whole process she was helpful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. Shortly after, we found a new construction home. Erica helped negotiate things into the contract I would have never thought to ask for when purchasing a new home. As we had such a good experience with her, we listed our old home with her. She went through the home with us, advised us on what to fix, and even recommended some contractors. It sold in less than three months, though was difficult sell. The buyer was a using a very tricky lender, but Erica was able to guide us through all the needs/requirements of the lender with ease. I’m not sure we could have sold our home without her. Overall, Erica offers excellent customer service, is very prompt, organized, and knows her market extremely well. You can definitively tell that she has passion at work and loves what she does. She will exceed your expectations! I highly recommend her services and I will definitely use her as our agent in the future
- Cassie F.
Bill and Nina were great to work with! We were relocating and doing it on our own without a Realtor. We contacted Bill and Nina to see one of their listings. In doing so, they ended up learning o ur needs and showed us a different listing they had that met our needs and they were right! The house was exactly what we wanted at the time. In addition, we were on a tight close timeline. They reached out to their partners in the home inspection industry to get us an appointment after we had been told they were booked. They also provided a lender's contact information that we used and who closed the loan smoothly on time. Nina was a huge help in managing the process for us as we were out of the town plus trying to close quickly. Time from contract to closing date was 30 days exactly. Thank you Bill and Nina for your help! We look forward to using you all the next time we need to buy or sell our home!
- Scott and Stacia Moore
Our family really enjoyed working with Howard. He was not only incredibly patient and helpful, but he made it feel like we were working with a friend instead of a business man. He took time to answers our calls, concerns and questions. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and knowledgeable realtor.
Erica helped me buy a dream house, and I will be forever grateful. Besides being a true professional, she made the entire home buying process fun. I definitely had some luck along the way, and her high spirits, attention to detail, and local connections smoothed the way on many fronts. She knows the areas around Jacksonville and Jacksonville Beach very well, and was able to show me a number of properties that interested me. Basically, Erica's experience and great attitude will make the home buying process about as smooth as it can possibly be. I am very lucky I found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top tier realtor.

"We were incredibly fortunate to have worked with Nina and Bill Bay for searching and purchasing our new home in Saint Johns. Our process was smooth and, in the end, a huge success all thanks to Nina and Bill. First, they took the time to get to know us and asked the right questions to gain a very in depth understanding of what was most important to us and our family's needs in finding the right home. They spent a great deal of time researching the area for our unique needs, communicating with us regularly about potential listings, and taking us to see homes that met criteria we had in mind (and getting us in to see them quickly!). We always received fast and thorough responses to our questions and did not hesitate to jump on calls to look into questions/concerns we would have about a potential home. Their vast knowledge of the area and the real estate market made the process of finding the right home for us an easy and enjoyable experience. Once they helped us find the home of our dreams in our top choice of neighborhoods, Nina and Bill thoroughly explained the process each step of the way, and helped us draw up an offer that got us the perfect home for our family. Throughout the close process, their attention to detail was impressive. They were on top of it all, keeping us informed while ensuring everything was in lock step, from repairs being made, to ensuring the loan was always on track to close as expected. They did not miss a thing and amazed us with their attentiveness and experience. Their effort, integrity, and extraordinary care during the close process made for a stress free close. We absolutely would recommend Nina and Bill Bay."

Bill and Nina helped us with the purchase of our new construction home as well as the selling of our home at the time. I honestly didn't see much value in having a realtor help with a new construction home but since the commissions would be paid by the home builder I figured I'd see if they offered any benefit. Boy, was I wrong. Bill and Nina are NOT the type of realtors that will just show up to the signing of the contract and during closing. They did so much more during this process than I could even imagine. During the contract phase, they advised on the cost of the home and what we should ask for from the builder. Nina even spoke to the Loan Officer from the builder's mortgage company to get them to waive our origination fees saving us over $1,200 dollars and allowing us to use the builder's mortgage company which came with additional builder credits which we could use for upgrades. They both also advised us on different builder options for the home which was very helpful with their vast knowledge of previous builds. They both interacted with the sales agent in a manner which was professionally tough but not to the point where the sales agent disliked working with us. The perfect balance. During the build process, I didn't expect to interact with Bill and Nina. I just didn't think that was their job. Wrong again. They were constantly checking in and even showed up to the inspection appointments we had with the general contractor to give us advice and oversee the process. They also showed up at the two final inspections we had to approve the house before closing. Once again, they were extremely helpful pointing out areas that needed to be fixed and advising on situations where we had to decide what to do. Their knowledge was extremely helpful during this process. Overall, it was great having Bill and Nina help us with the purchasing process and would highly recommend using them.
We used Bill and Nina to sell our home in Durbin Crossing. I believe they came recommended via social media but I can't remember exactly. It turned out to be a great decision no matter how we foun d them as they are both just wonderful realtors and even better people. We were building a home in a nearby neighborhood which created a lot of anxiety as we were naturally very excited about the home we were building. Bill and Nina made the selling process a great experience and really helped lessen that self-imposed anxiety. Overall, Bill and Nina are a great complement to one another and work very well as a team. They are each very good realtors on their own but they both have unique qualities that when combined together makes it seem like you are getting a super realtor for the price of one. Due to their price analysis and marketing, we constantly had people coming by to look at the house and we were amazed when they brought by the spiral bound notebook with information on our house and the neighborhood. Their organization and communication skills were excellent which I really appreciated. Once an offer was placed on our house, Bill and Nina handled that situation just as great as the rest of the process. They gave solid advice on what we should do but also gave us the freedom to make the ultimate decision. In the end, their negotiating gained us additional thousands when we would have settled for less. I can't say enough about Bill and Nina. We loved working with them and will always use them in the future if possible.

In 20 plus years in real estate, it is a rare but gratifying occasion when you meet a professional with unabashed client interest (his own client) but firm and friendly negotiation. You have these qualities and they will serve you well.

Finding a right real estate company is all about working with true experts. That's a word that a lot of Realtors use, but here it applies in abundance. The Round Table Realty team is staffed with top professionals: sharp, informed, attentive, and committed to the highest standards of customer care.
- Jeff Shore - Renowned Nat'l New Home Sales Expert, Former National Sales Pres. of KB Home
After trying out two agents who relied solely on automated MLS email notifications to generate listings for us, we were no better off after five months of searching than when we'd started. Over this period we watched the availability of properties that met our criteria shrink and prices rise as investors and others were creating a shortage. By the time we could check our emails and contact the agent to secure a showing on a hopeful property, the word back way too often was, "it's already under contract", and then, our hope daunted. Tired of that emotional roller coaster, we knew we needed someone more proactive to be in the game if we were ever going to secure a home. Round Table was recommended by a colleague, and we were directed to Frank. Things changed immediately. Frank understood the challenges we presented him, and relentlessly went to work to meet them. Several times we changed our criteria as we better understood the area and the market, and Frank was receptive and quick to shift gears and present new options. After having lost out in two bidding wars, we knew hours mattered. No longer interested in engaging in multiple-offer situations, we told Frank we needed to be first, far enough ahead of competition to obtain an exclusive offer. His habit of texting and calling us to ensure we saw listings he'd sent over, often "hot" properties, is one of the reasons we have our home today. Frank literally ditched his supper to get us an immediate showing on one such property, within minutes of sending us a text and obtaining our green light. That house is now our home. After nine months, thanks to Frank's patience, diligence, and hard work, our search was finally over.

Howard Flaschen and Keith Francis make customer service their highest priority. They always kept me informed of every necessary detail involved in the purchase of our home, and they were quick to come up with solutions to any problems that arose. During a normally stressful time, I felt at ease knowing our home and our contract were in good hands—their reliability was reassuring. Though always professional, our working relationship with Howard and Keith never felt businesslike or impersonal. I truly enjoyed working with them.

This was my 2nd time purchasing a home so I am a little familiar with how the process works, however, Christian made this time a breeze! He knows the area well, stayed in constant communication with me, answered all questions, referred me to a great Loan Officer & Home Inspector. Overall great experience! I will definitely refer him to others looking for a home.

As a first time homeowner I am so thankful I had Erica to help guide me through the real estate process! She's professional, detail orientated, honest, and treats you as if you are her only client. If you are looking in the Duval or St John's county area, Erica is the best real estate agent to reach out. I loved working with her and will use her again for future real estate needs!

Erica would prove to be a great resource for any buyer in the market for a home. With a wide array of knowledge, skills & a great reputation, I feel confident that she can be a benefit anyone seeking a qualified industry professional to represent them and present them with all the facts. Erica did an outstanding job when working with my wife and I and I am certain she would do the same for you!

Erica is the best realtor in Jacksonville! My husband and I relocated to Jacksonville from New York City over the course of a year and a half. During that entire time, we were very calculated in our approach, and, being totally new to the area, asked an exhaustive list of questions. Erica listened carefully to everything we said and showed us homes and neighborhoods that reflected what we were really looking for. This was our first home and she was a great resource for all aspects of the process. She also made our search fun! We enthusiastically recommend Erica for your home buying and selling needs!

We had the best home buying experience with Erica and I recommend her to everyone that I know who is looking to buy real estate! From the first minute that I talked to her on the phone, I knew she was going to be the realtor we would want to work with. She is a VERY knowledgeable and honest realtor to work with. We were first time homebuyers and had a very strict time limit to find a new home. I was on a work trip in Hawaii when the perfect house came on the market. My heart sank because I was out of town and I knew it was going to go fast. Erica suggested that she show me the house the very next morning via FaceTime. I was very excited to learn that she was willing to think out side the box and go out of her way to accommodate us. We put an offer in the same day and got a contract. If it wasn't for Erica, we would have lost out on the home we wanted. If you are serious about buying a home and want a good and honest realtor that will do anything in her power to get you in the home you want, then you need to contact Erica

Frank,
I just want to thank you for all you did during this process - starting with speaking to my sister & me about the title aspects - to - being there for me every step of the way. Your knowledge & advice was so helpful.
- Heather Holman
It was amazing working with Round table Realty. We called Howard on one day and three days later we had a condo. Here, less than a month later we've closed. How much easier can it get? It was wonderful. I'm very happy & the place is fantastic. I'll enjoy it immensely once the move is over. You see mom had all of these qualifications, it had to be ground floor, screened lanai, it had to be 2 bedrooms, two baths....all this stuff and they found the perfect place that was the third place that they had looked at... It was perfect.
- Jennie Edwards & Nikkie Lent
Frank is amazing! He helped us through all the process of buying our new home. We didn't have plenty of time and he always found the way to make our schedules work. He was always interested in our concerns and how to solve them. When he goes to show you a house, he will make you see all the little details and things that you would never see if he doesn't show them to you, giving you the confidence that you are in very good hands. He became part of the family, and thanks to him, we found our dream house. Thank you for being very patient and passionate about your job!!

“We had not shopped any real estate for almost 25 years and Angel was just who we needed to find an investment property that we could gently rehab and rent to a family member. She has valuable experience in the closing process and came up with creative solutions that several other agents had never even heard of. We ended up with a great value of a short sale with ownership involving a distant serviceman, the US Corp of Engineers and the US Army. She negotiated these complications with minimal problems, all the time keeping us well informed with texts, e-mails and timely phone calls. We never felt rushed or wondering where we were in the process. Angel is the best and a joy to work with. Shane and Annette”

Andrea is Outstanding! My wife & I moved 3000 Miles from Washington to Florida. This alone is an incredible undertaking. Andrea made it all much easier. Prior to Andrea, We have had horrible Realtor experiences. Andrea changed all that. She was always careful to listen to our exact needs. She always went above & beyond to take care of our needs. Always makes time to answer emails & calls no matter how big or small. bottom line..She delivers! We were staying in an Extended Stay Hotel with our long cross country move & Andrea was able to negotiate getting us into our new home on a holiday weekend. If your a first time buyer or just someone who looking for a Realtor who actually isn't afraid to work & get the job done. Shes the one!

Attention all service members,
Certified Distressed Property Expert!!! CDPE- never thought when I was buying my first home in 2006 that I would need one. It’s amazing what can happen in a single tour of duty. With transfer season fast approaching and my home upside down by 60% things were not looking good. Service members know when it’s time to move to your next station Uncle Sam is not interested in your problems. Enter Howard Flaschen, (Real Estate Super Hero) and Keith Francis, (Photography Super Genius). They took me step by step through the process from start to finish, making this experience more comfortable and handled my short sale with a positive attitude and unprecedented support. My core values are Honor, Respect, and Devotion to Duty. Howard and Keith displayed the same core values when working with me, (they did most of the work) to bring a less than desirable situation to a recoverable end. During this long 6 month journey of ups and downs, Howard kept me up-to-date on the whole process no matter where I was deployed. Roundtable Realty is squared away! Thank you both very much for all that you did.
