Business Philosophy

Welcome,

My name is Joe Rhodes and I excel at helping people achieve their Real Estate goals.

I became a Realtor in 1991 after spending eight years in finance on Wall Street and in Boston. I have deep roots in Lyme where my family has been since the late 1800's. I live in a beach community on Niantic Bay and run my business from the same office in Old Lyme where I started. I hold a Brokers License and have owned my own firm which I sold and eventually became part of Coldwell Banker.  I share this information because I believe continuity is important, especially in our swiftly changing world environment. I am proud of, and committed to, upholding a legacy of high standards for service and market expertise that my Clients have come to depend on for 32 years running.

Knowledge, Accountability and Confidentiality are the cornerstones of my business practice. 

I invite you to call or text my cell # 860-227-0921 and we can arrange some time to discuss your Real Estate needs and goals.

Thanks!
