Nicole 'Bentley' Ippolito, PA

I have known and worked with Joe DeFini for a number of years at Wolfe Real Estate Group. What I most appreciate about Joe is his straightforward approach and honesty in communication. Joe is a focused, no nonsense individual whose professionalism has never wavered in the time I have known him. As a REALTOR® he is kind, considerate, and professional in dealing with clients as they buy, sell, and rent homes. He would be an asset to any organization; I highly recommend his services.

Heather Wolfe

I have had the pleasure of working with Joe over the years in various roles. He is one of the most principled, conscientious, caring and detail-oriented people I have come across in my 20+ year real estate career. His follow-up skills are unmatched. As a bonus he's a team player. He will truly be missed in my organization.
