Joy agrees that a home purchase is one of the largest financial investments a person will make in a lifetime. She states that because the greatest percentage of a person's wealth is invested in real estate, 'It's important to hire an experienced REALTOR® with the skills and negotiating power to easily get the job done within your budget and time frame. Experienced agents help you keep more money in your pocket and avoid problems that can derail your dreams.'
Many of her client's agree that Joy is a bold REALTOR® and necessary advocate to win in the competitive home buying and selling market. She will move mountains to make the home sale process as seamless and convenient as possible and treats everyone as if they are personal family and friends. 'When someone chooses me to represent them, my number one responsibility and priority is to educate, coach and counsel so they can make the best decision for them. Placing my focus first on the people and second on the home, builds a bond of trust, unity and teamwork for every home sale transaction. The blessings are immeasurable.”
Joy is the proud mom to Reagan, her 28-year-old son who proudly served our country as a United States Marine (2011-2017). Currently, he is a First Responder Firefighter/EMT and member of the Mountain Rescue team in Rio Rancho, NM. In July 2019, Reagan and the entire Rice family welcomed a healthy baby boy, Elijah, into the world. “We are truly honored and thankful to our awesome and loving God for this precious gift He placed in our care. What a joy!”
In her free time, Joy keeps an active lifestyle. She is often found trail running with her Vizslas 'Julian' and 'Austyn', weight training, cooking, entertaining, spending time with family and friends, attending and volunteering at Gateway Church in Southlake. Joy says the most important aspect of her personal and professional life is her dedication to running her business in a way that pleases and brings honor to God.
