We first contacted Wendy through a mutual friend who told us about “Lucy” , the free to use Next Home Next Stepp moving truck for Ashland County residents. We didn’t really need a large professional moving company to move our parent into assisted living, so finding this smaller, quicker to schedule option was great for us. It was such a great experience that when it came time to sell our parent’s condominium , we chose Wendy with confidence. Her local knowledge of the market, her timing and business networks were critical to the success of our sale. Wendy and her business networks freed us up to focus on moving our parent into assisted living. It was an emotional decision and Wendy was understanding and patient with our family. Wendy made the whole experience as seamless as possible , working with family located from three different states! The condo sold in record time at slightly above asking price. Wendy utilized social media, efficiently paired with local coverage to sell the condo. The McInturf family certainly appreciates Wendy’s professionalism, knowledge, and genuine compassion throughout this process. We couldn’t have done it without her!

Wendy was a massive help through the many ups and downs of finding the perfect home. Everything was always explained in clear terms, her availability to answer questions was helpful as well as comforting. She gave great support and recommendations that made the entire process easier.
Doug and Cindy S - Alliance, OH: 2025-06-16
Our house sold much quicker than we thought it would and we had more offers than we ever expected. She helped keep us focused on what we needed to do to bring the property to a marketing condition. The videography, the photography, the staging - everything - was absolutely stellar and well worth the price. Wendy was so easy to deal with and always kept in touch. She truly went above and beyond what we expected her to do. She made this a wonderful experience.

Great experience!! My realtor was Wendy Anderson and she was very helpful and friendly. The whole team there was knowledgeable and genuinely kind. I can't recommend them enough. Some part of me wants to stay in the real estate process so I can continuously work with Wendy and her awesome staff.
Shelly S - Ashland, OH: 2025-02-16
Wendy was very friendly. She is very knowledgeable in her career.She was attentive with us thru the whole process of us buying this house. It was quick from start to finish. She is very patient as it took a little while to get to the signing process. AAAAA++++ WENDY ...I recommend her if you are looking to buy a house!!
Pamela M - North Fairfield, Ohio: 2024-11-26
Wendy is is amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to get things taken care of in a timely manner! It was a pleasure working with her and I will forever recommend her to anyone in need of a realtor.

I can’t say enough good things about NextHome Next Stepp and Wendy Anderson! My mom recently sold her home in Delaware and was looking for a fresh start near my sister in Ashland, Ohio. After my Dad passed away, she had been living in a house filled with tough memories, and moving was an incredibly emotional journey for her. Wendy was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Buying a home from out of state isn’t easy, but Wendy went above and beyond to make it smooth and stress-free. She treated my mom with kindness, compassion, and professionalism that really stood out. Wendy didn’t just help find a house; she helped my mom start a new chapter. One of the most touching moments was when Wendy gifted my mom a beautiful wall hanging for her new home, symbolizing her fresh start. It was such a thoughtful gesture that meant the world to her (and to me, too!). If you’re looking for a realtor who truly cares and will go the extra mile, I can’t recommend Wendy Anderson and NextHome Next Stepp highly enough!
Jackie K - Ashland, OH: 2024-11-21
What a great experience Wendy provided for me while purchasing a new home from a different state. She gave me the time to view houses from her phone on FaceTime then was available to walk through with my daughter as well. I made an offer on a house without physically seeing it from what my daughter and Wendy showed me from their phones. Then made time for me to actually see my new house for the first time. I had numerous questions dealing with closing electronically and she walked me through the process patiently. This is one real estate agent I would highly recommend!
Natalie C - Ashland, OH: 2024-07-19
Thanks Natalie. Congratulations to you. Hopefully we run into each other at some point down the road. I very much enjoyed working with you.
Kimberly M - Ashland, OH: 2024-07-19
Wendy is truly one of the most amazing people I’ve had the pleasure to work with, both as a former colleague and now a repeat client. She always puts the needs of her clients first, bringing life to the phrase “humans over houses.” There is no one I trust more in this industry when either buying or selling a house, which I have done a lot of over the years! I would highly recommend Wendy or any of the NextHome Next Stepp staff to anyone in the market to buy or sell a house.
Drenn W - Mansfield, OH: 2024-06-02
Wendy did an excellent job for us. In effect, she pulled a rabbit out of the hat. I am very pleased with her professionalism and her kind demeanor. If I were ever to sell another house, it would be with her.
Roger K - Ashland, OH: 2024-06-02
Due to some medical issues, Wendy has patiently served us for a year and a half. She has always been courteous and patient, and finally found the home that we needed at a price we could afford. Over this time, we have come to think of her more as a friend than an agent.
Adam B - Mansfield, OH: 2024-06-02
"Humans over houses" isn't just a tag line. Wendy and her office live this daily. Ashland is certainly fortunate to have them in town helping the community.
Krista S - Ashland, OH: 2023-10-02
I'm pretty much a rookie, and clueless in the world of buying a home. Wendy was AMAZING. Calm to my crazy. She had an answer for all of my questions. The market was tight and she never stopped looking for my perfect place! I'm so thankful for her time, effort and persistence! She was a blessing to me!
Kim S - Ashland, OH: 2023-05-01
I’ve bought and sold many houses and certainly have high expectations in hiring an agent. Wendy not only met, but exceeded those expectations in every way. Her communication sets the bar for what every realtor should strive for. She was punctual, responsive, and it was apparent that “quality over quantity” is what she strives for. Our house was in contract in less than a week with 3 offers over asking price, eventually closing at $13,000 over asking price. I was also given access to a box truck for my move for free! As an overall company, I truly feel like NextHome is setting the bar in customer service, marketing, and technology. The quality of the photos was unlike anything I’ve seen on the market. Everything about their marketing was high quality, cutting edge, and utilizing multimedia outlets. I would HIGHLY recommend Wendy Anderson to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.
Clayton L - Sullivan, OH: 2023-05-01
Wendy was very helpful in helping us find the house that fit our budget and needs. It only took a couple of weeks to find our house and as soon we made an offer she kept us updated all of the time. Wendy kept the buying process moving along and as stress free on us as possible.
Sue C - Ashland, Oh: 2022-08-16
Wendy did an amazing job of marketing and selling my condo for me. I believe that her outstanding photography in preparing my on line video home tours was a major factor in the successful sale of my home in 3 days. Wendy's professionalism and marketing skills are exceptional. The entire staff was friendly and helpful during my selling process.
Krista S - Ashland, Ohio: 2022-08-14
I am buying a home for the first time in 27 years. Pretty much a rookie.Clueless. Wendy was AMAZING. Calm to my crazy. She had an answer for all of my questions. The market was tight and she never stopped looking for my perfect place! I’m so grateful for her time, effort and persistence! She was a blessing to me!
Shawn A - Ashland, Ohio: 2022-05-31
Fantastic representation and showing the house to us remotely as we were buying from out of state. Perfect liason between the buyer and seller. Highly recommend!
Kristin C - Mansfield, OH: 2022-04-24
Wendy is dedicated, kind, and understanding all while having a no nonsense personality. She found us the perfect house for us in the middle of one of the worst housing markets that we have had in awhile. She went to bat for us when we didn't for ourselves and answered every single question I had almost immediately. She's definitely our realtor for life.
Dylan C - Ashland, OH: 2022-04-24
I’m 19 and I thought I would take on the task of buying my first house. Before she even showed me the first house, Wendy took the time to get to know me, what I was looking for, and what the non-negotiable features in a house for me. A home theater was a MUST! Anytime something that she thought I would be interested in came on the market she would send me a text, and sometimes we would look at a house within a few hours of it even hitting the market. She walked me through the steps and made what could’ve been a nightmare-ish process - fun! I always looked forward to talking to Wendy about the process and learning what the next steps were. I never felt like I was in the dark, I always knew what was going on and what was next. I truly didn’t think I’d be able to find what I wanted in my price range. Wendy helped me find my dream home and more. I would recommend Wendy to anyone looking to buy a home, she makes the process fun, easy, and enjoyable. (or at least as enjoyable and easy as buying a house can be!)
Karen G - North Canton, Ohio: 2022-04-24
If we could give Wendy 10 stars we would. We never thought we would be able to purchase a house in this market but with Wendy's help, that became our reality. She was always readily available to answer our many questions and never once made us feel bad for what we didn't know. She kept our interests and preferences in mind while also introducing us to new possibilities. Her sharp negotiating skills kept us competitive in an insane market. We cannot recommend her enough.
James P - Ashland, Ohio: 2022-04-24
A friend introduced us to Wendy to list our house and right away you could tell that she was very personable and organized. Within days of listing our house , we accepted an offer and Wendy was on top of everything even when she was out of town. She was always quick to respond back to our calls and texts and kept us informed on what was happening the whole time till it was sold. If you want someone who is passionate about what they do and is thorough, then you want Wendy!!
Nicole E - Ashland, OH: 2022-04-24
Wendy Anderson is a superior real estate agent. She came so highly recommended to me and it took me all of 3 seconds to figure out why. Professional, driven, completely motivated, and genuinely cares about her clients. She is absolutely phenomenal. I was a first time home buyer and needed so much extra help - Wendy was there 24/7 (no joke) to help me through the entire process. She made the entire experience fun and enjoyable. Wendy, from my family to yours… we thank you sincerely for your time and extreme effort. Thanks to you….We have the home of our dreams! I would give her 30 stars if I could. She earned every single one.
Paula C - Ashland, OH: 2022-04-24
Wendy is a dear! She showed me many homes and gave me plenty of time to make a decision. Wendy was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I will give her name to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Cheryl H - Ashland, OH: 2022-04-24
Wendy Anderson is a dedicated realtor with a great combination of personal traits and skills. From Day 1, she not only gave us encouragement and very helpful advice but also immediately began gathering information and strategies to expedite the sale of our property. Throughout the 49 days from our first phone call through the closing, she was on top of things and usually several steps ahead for what we’d need next. We definitely recommend working with Wendy - she gets two “5’s” from us!
Stella S - Ashland, OH: 2022-04-24
Wendy did a fantastic job making sure we closed on 2 properties on the same day. She is very knowledgeable about the Ashland market and quick to get back us when we had questions. I am very thankful to have found a dedicated realtor for our growing rental business! Wendy really enjoys what she does and it shows.
