"Joe was the perfect fit for us as we searched for our first house to purchase this year. Not only was he flexible, knowledgeable, and willing to answer (or find the answer) to any question, he worked with us through the pandemic! When viewing houses he was able to provide insight into good qualities, as well as potential problems. He was honest and never made us feel uncomfortable about our opinions or questions. Most importantly he was not "pushy" when it came to finding a home. He just wanted us to land on the house we would be happy in. I would highly recommend him."

"Joe was an absolute gem to work with. He was funny, honest, communicative, available, and genuinely a pleasure to spend time with. As first time home owners, Joe guided us through the process with professionalism and transparency. We feel incredibly lucky to have found him and couldn't imagine having another realtor. We have already recommended him to friends looking to buy homes and if we ever house hunt again, he will be our first call. We kind of miss seeing him regularly."

"Joe is a phenomenal realtor! He is very trustworthy, knowledgeable, and prompt. As a first time homebuyer, I had no idea what I was doing. Joe was very patient and walked me through every step of the process. He was excellent at finding properties that were a great fit for me. Joe made the process very enjoyable and educational. During the closing process, there were a lot of unpredictable events, but Joe was adaptable and made the process straightforward. After closing, Joe still made himself available to give me advice about property maintenance and gave me many excellent referrals for contractors, roofers, etc. I hope to work with him again in the future and will recommend him to everyone I know."

"Joseph was a pleasure to work with when looking to rent a house in the increasingly popular Fishtown area. Not only was he knowledgeable, attentive and professional, but he was also personable and friendly when meeting with myself and my roommates. I made Joseph aware of my budget and desired neighborhood early on in the search and we quickly found a beautiful rental within my price range. I cannot recommend Joseph enough to anyone searching for a new home."

About Joseph
Joseph entered the Real Estate Industry in 2009 working with an investment firm in acquiring distressed assets and managing and leasing a diverse rental portfolio in Philadelphia. After stabilizing the new portfolio, he moved on to oversee the divestment of several large REIT-owned assets in Center City from 2012-2013. It was in 2012 that he decided to get licensed and enter the world of brokerage. After fulfilling the divestment in 2013, Joseph exploded as an agent, doubling his business each year. He now averages $10,000,000 per year in volume as a solo agent. After 9 years with another firm, Joseph moved over to Compass in 2021 to begin utilizing its’ top-rated tools and technology.
Joseph Fonash has a background in construction, teaching and writing. He and his wife are raising 3 children in Philadelphia and have lived in Fishtown, Fairmount and Brewerytown.
