Let's find your dream home

"Moving is never easy, and after going through it several times, I’ve seen it all. Working with the Spouses Selling Houses Team was a breath of fresh air, easily the best experience I’ve ever had. They poured so much effort into finding exactly what I needed and guided me straight to the perfect home. They treat you like family, and I cannot recommend them enough."

"Jean is amazing to work with -- she’s very communicative, cooperative, and creative. You need all those to get a house sold! Thanks Jean!"

"Joe, and Jean are amazing. They truly care about you and want to make you happy. I highly recommend."

"Jean, Joe, and Jessa are an incredible team! I’m always excited when my mortgage team and I have the opportunity to work with them whether on the buyer’s side or the seller’s side. They communicate effectively, honestly, and professionally, and they know our community inside and out.

I’ve also heard very many wonderful things about the Spouses Selling Houses Team. Plus they have been positive pillars in our community for decades.

I cannot recommend them highly enough. Five stars all the way!"

"They helped us find our dream home!"

"Having been rescued from a sell by owner nightmare to then using Jean and Joe for purchase and repeatedly for finding tenants, we have always been impressed and grateful for their hard work, dedication and honesty. We know we are great hands!"

"Jean has gone above and beyond to help me and my husband purchase our first home. From answering my questions every time I texted to setting up showings on our schedule which was amazing!!!! I will recommend this team to all my friends and family moving forward. Thank you so much to Jean and her whole team for making this stressful process a little bit easier!"

"We have known Jean and Joe for 5 years and really appreciate their expertise when it comes to real estate. In addition to being very open and friendly, they are always willing to answer questions or give advice. But they also go to bat for their clients which is what you want in your real estate agent. That sometimes means answering the phone and emails at night and on weekends. And when we couldn’t find the perfect house, Jean calmed my wife saying “the perfect house will find you”, and it did!

"Jean was super helpful when my brother passed and we were preparing to sell his home. She is thoughtful & thorough."

"We cannot say enough wonderful things about Jean and Joe Marella and the Spouses Selling Houses Real Estate Team! They recently helped our family sell my uncle’s home, and from beginning to end, they were absolutely exceptional.

Because we weren’t simply selling a house—we were dealing with everything that comes with preparing a family member’s home for sale—we needed much more than traditional real estate agents. Jean and Joe stepped in and helped us with EVERYTHING. They connected us with cleanup crews, repair professionals, and all the resources we needed to get the house ready for market. They coordinated the details, kept things moving, and took an enormous amount of work and worry off our family.

And the results spoke for themselves: the house sold in record time and at a great price!

What impressed us most, though, was how personal Jean and Joe made the entire experience. They were responsive, caring, incredibly hands-on, and always made us feel as though we were their #1 priority. You never feel like you’re just another client with them.

If you’re looking for real estate professionals who will truly roll up their sleeves, take care of the details, and treat your family like their own, we wholeheartedly recommend Jean and Joe. We are so grateful for everything they did for our family!

"I had the pleasure of working with Jean Marella, who represented the buyer in a transaction that came with some unexpected challenges.
Her communication throughout the transaction was excellent. As a first-time homebuyer, her client understandably became nervous after a tree fell on the side of the home shortly before closing. This unexpected situation delayed our closing by about 3 weeks, but Jean remained calm and focused on solutions. She guided and reassured her buyer throughout the process and helped keep the transaction moving toward the closing table.
As a fellow real estate professional, I understand how important it is to help our clients navigate stressful situations and remind them that challenges can often be resolved when everyone works together. Fortunately, all parties cooperated and ultimately made the closing happen.

👏I would absolutely love the opportunity to work another transaction with Jean. She was truly committed to her client. Highly recommend!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"When we were selling our home on Lake Huron in Sarnia, Canada - Jean and Joe were incredibly generous with their time and advice. Even though they aren’t licensed in Canada and couldn’t represent us, they were always willing to answer questions, share their real estate experience, and help us think through the process. Having trusted professionals we could turn to for an outside perspective was invaluable. We’re so grateful for their guidance and support!"

"So grateful to Joe & Jean for helping our son navigate and negotiate his home purchase. The fun part—we were all together in Hawaii when it happened! Even on vacation, they jumped in when their expertise was needed. It was comforting knowing he had experienced Realtors looking out for him every step of the way."

"Jean & Horatio were amazing to work with! Communicative and punctual making this extremely easy. Loving my new house! 10/10 would recommend."

"Joe and Jean are truly exceptional at what they do. The rental property was super clean, and they were very responsive and on top of everything. No matter the time of day, they were always available to answer my questions and made the process easy and quick for my client to move into his new townhouse. If you work with the Spouses Selling Houses Team for your real estate needs, know you’re in great hands. There aren’t many realtors I can say that about. It was a pleasure working with them."

"Joe and Jean were a great help to us when we bought our first home last summer! They helped guide us through the entire process and were always there to answer our questions along the way!"

"I can’t say enough about my experience working with Jean, Joe, and everyone on their team. They’re absolute professionals who have a depth of experience and knowledge that comes with decades in the industry. Being a novice at this entire process, I was afraid that I would be overwhelmed. SSH did not let that happen; they explained every single step and offered guidance and excellent advice, and the whole transaction, from first viewing until closing (and afterwards!) was smooth and as low-stress as could be. They really care about their clients, their clients needs, and their field. I’d give more stars if I could, and will not hesitate to happily refer them to anyone looking at real estate in the area."

"Jean was amazing throughout the whole home buying process. I appreciate how patient she was with me during this time, and took the time to explain everything!"

"Jean and her team have been excellent to work with as a first time home buyer. Professional and patient during the entire process. Would highly recommend."

"Buying my first home in Pennsylvania was super intimidating. Having parents who are experienced Realtors made it simple. Even though they’re licensed in Illinois, they helped me find a great lender, walked me through the contract, and answered all my questions I had along the way. Their guidance gave me confidence, and I always knew they had my best interests at heart. I’m super grateful for their support and highly recommend Joe and Jean Marella and The Spouses Selling Houses Team!"
