About the Team
▼Skyline Properties Group is a Cincinnati-based real estate team with Coldwell Banker Realty, founded in 2012 by Joan Lane and Ashley Enneking. What started as two agents joining forces has grown into an award-winning team that also includes Mallory Wilson, who handles office administration and brings over a decade of real estate experience to the group.
The team is built around one idea: that every client deserves a dedicated, expert advocate — not a one-size-fits-all experience. The team structure means you always have someone available and knowledgeable, no matter where you are in the process.
Joan Lane is the lead of Skyline Properties Group and one of its co-founders. Before transitioning into real estate, Joan built a career in social services — earning a Bachelor's in Social Work from the University of Cincinnati and a Master's in Social Work from the University of Kentucky, both with top honors. She spent years as an advocate and counselor for at-risk youth, and has served as a licensed foster parent, a Big Sister through BBBS, and a CASA volunteer for Pro Kids.
That advocacy background translates directly into how Joan approaches real estate. Her primary focus is protecting your interests as a seller — getting you the highest price with the best possible terms. She is known for her market preparedness and negotiation skills, and her deep roots in the Greater Cincinnati and Southeastern Indiana area give her an edge that goes well beyond the transaction.
Joan grew up in a family of builders and developers. Her husband Brian has spent his career as a custom home builder and master remodeler, and together they have built six homes of their own. They reside in Dearborn County, Indiana.
Ashley Enneking is a co-founder of Skyline Properties Group and holds Ohio and Indiana real estate licenses. She graduated cum laude from the University of Cincinnati's Carl H. Linder College of Business in 2010 with dual degrees in Marketing and Real Estate — and started her real estate career at Coldwell Banker Realty the following year.
Like Joan, Ashley grew up immersed in real estate. Her father is a custom home builder, her mother is a property manager, and her grandparents were farmers who transitioned into development. That foundation shows up in how she works: with strong marketing instincts, sharp attention to detail, and a client-first approach that her reviews consistently highlight.
Ashley has lived in the Harrison/Southeastern Indiana area her entire life. She and her family reside just outside Harrison, Ohio. She brings not just professional expertise, but genuine personal knowledge of the communities she serves.
The Skyline Properties Group team brings over 75 years of combined real estate experience. Joan and Ashley have worked together since 2012, and each member of the team adds deep local knowledge and specialized skills. That accumulated experience means fewer surprises for you — and better outcomes at every stage of the process.
It's both a philosophy and a promise. Skylines are like fingerprints — no two are exactly alike. Your ideal home might be urban or rural, a downtown condo with a city view or a farmhouse surrounded by trees. It might depend on where you are in life right now.
Skyline Properties Group isn't in the business of putting you in a house that checks the most boxes. The goal is to find the one that fits your skyline — your specific version of home. That starts with listening, and it ends when you're where you're supposed to be.
Yes. Skyline Properties Group operates under Coldwell Banker Realty, one of the most recognized names in residential real estate nationwide. That connection gives our clients access to national-level marketing reach, cutting-edge technology tools, relocation services, and a referral network that extends well beyond Greater Cincinnati.
In practice: you get the attentiveness and local expertise of a boutique team, backed by the resources of a national organization.
Areas Served
▼Skyline Properties Group specializes in Greater Cincinnati and the communities stretching northwest of the city into Southeastern Indiana. Focus areas include:
Not sure if your area is covered? Reach out — we're happy to talk through it.
Yes. The team's primary focus is the west side of Cincinnati and Southeastern Indiana — communities like Harrison, Ross, Cleves, Green Township, Colerain, Bridgetown, and the surrounding townships. Both Joan and Ashley grew up in this corridor and have spent their entire careers here. That depth of local knowledge — knowing which streets flood, which schools are drawing families, which subdivisions are moving fast — is genuinely hard to replicate.
If you're buying or selling on the west side, you're working with agents who know it the way most people only know their own neighborhood.
Harrison and its surrounding communities — Ross, Cleves, Okeana, Bright, and Hidden Valley — offer a combination that's increasingly hard to find close to Cincinnati: more square footage for the price, larger lots, a small-town feel, and relatively easy access to I-74 for anyone commuting into the city.
For families, the area also has strong school options and a tight-knit community character that's different from the denser inner suburbs. The team has deep roots in this part of the market and can give you a ground-level read on neighborhoods, pricing trends, and what to expect from the buying process in this area specifically.
Yes — and this is a market the team knows from the inside. Joan resides in Dearborn County, Indiana, and both Joan and Ashley hold active Indiana real estate licenses. Communities like Lawrenceburg, Aurora, Greendale, St. Leon, Sunman, New Alsace, and Cedar Grove are areas they work in regularly, not occasionally.
Dearborn County tends to attract buyers who want more land, newer construction at accessible price points, or a quieter setting while staying within reasonable distance of Cincinnati. The team can walk you through how that market behaves differently from Ohio-side communities — including what to expect from the Indiana purchase process.
Yes. Both Joan Lane and Ashley Enneking hold active Ohio and Indiana real estate licenses. Southeastern Indiana — including Lawrenceburg, Dearborn County, Aurora, Greendale, and surrounding communities — is an area the team knows deeply and serves regularly.
Joan and Ashley both live in the Indiana/Ohio border region themselves, so this isn't just a market they cover — it's home.
Reach out and let's talk. The communities listed represent our core focus areas, but the Greater Cincinnati metro covers a lot of ground and our work takes us across it regularly. If we can help, we'll tell you. And if we can connect you with someone better positioned for your specific needs, we'll do that too.
Buying a Home
▼It starts with understanding what you're actually looking for — your must-haves, your priorities, your timeline. From there, you'll get immediate notifications when homes matching your criteria hit the market, so you're never starting from a cold search on your own.
When you find a home you want, the team applies negotiating skills developed over decades to secure the best possible price and terms on your behalf. And from contract to close, dedicated transaction and closing coordinators keep the process moving and keep you informed — no disappearing acts, no scrambling at the last minute.
Yes, and it's a fit the team takes seriously. Joan's background as a social worker and advocate means she's wired to make sure clients understand every step of the process — not just what's happening, but why it matters. Ashley's clients frequently highlight her patience and ability to keep first-timers informed and confident throughout.
Buying your first home is one of the biggest financial decisions you'll make. You deserve an agent who treats it that way.
That's a fine place to start a conversation. There's no pressure here. Skyline Properties Group offers consulting services — meaning you can talk through your situation, ask questions, and get honest guidance on timing and readiness without any obligation to move forward. Better to go in informed than to rush into something that isn't the right fit.
Browsing is always fine, and we're happy to show you what's out there. That said, getting pre-approved before you start seriously searching puts you in a much stronger position — especially in a competitive market. We can talk through what that process looks like and point you toward lenders who can help. Through Coldwell Banker, you also have access to home financing resources to get you started.
Yes. Relocation is a listed specialty for the team, and Coldwell Banker Realty's national relocation division provides additional infrastructure to support it. If you're moving to Greater Cincinnati or Southeastern Indiana from out of state, the team can help you navigate the market remotely and make the transition as smooth as possible.
Selling Your Home
▼The primary goal is clear: get you the highest price with the best possible terms. Joan leads on that front, and her strengths in market preparedness and negotiation are central to how the team approaches every listing.
On the marketing side, Ashley's dual background in marketing and real estate means your listing gets treated with the same discipline as a real campaign — not just a few photos and a prayer. The team uses current marketing tools and strategies alongside Coldwell Banker's national marketing reach to give your home maximum exposure.
You'll also receive detailed, personalized preparation guidance before the home goes to market — because how a home is presented on day one matters more than most sellers realize.
Skyline Properties Group uses a combination of personalized, property-specific preparation and Coldwell Banker Realty's national marketing infrastructure. That includes:
- Professional-quality listing presentation and preparation guidance
- Broad online exposure across major real estate platforms
- Coldwell Banker's national brand reach and digital marketing tools
- Consistent communication throughout — you'll know what's happening and why
Every listing is different. The marketing approach is tailored to the home and its most likely buyer, not templated and forgotten.
Pricing is one of the most consequential decisions in the selling process, and the team takes it seriously. Joan's expertise in market preparedness means you'll receive a well-researched, data-backed pricing recommendation — one that reflects current market conditions in your specific area, not just what the neighbor down the street got six months ago.
The goal is a price that attracts the right buyers quickly while protecting your financial outcome. Overpricing a home costs sellers more than they realize. This team's job is to make sure you don't leave money on the table — in either direction.
That depends on the property, the price, the condition, and the current market — and any agent who gives you a confident answer without knowing those details isn't being straight with you. What the team can tell you is that market preparedness dramatically affects time on market. Homes that are priced correctly, presented well, and marketed effectively sell faster and at better terms.
At your initial consultation, the team will give you a realistic picture based on current activity in your area.
Yes — and this is an area where the team's background in construction, building, and design gives them a real advantage. Joan's husband is a custom home builder and master remodeler in Greater Cincinnati. Ashley grew up around home building and property management. They understand what buyers are looking at and what will move the needle on your sale.
You'll receive detailed, personalized preparation guidance before going to market. Whether it's minor improvements or more significant updates, the team can advise on where your preparation dollars will have the highest return.
Working Together
▼Yes. Joan and Ashley are the principals of Skyline Properties Group and are personally involved in their clients' transactions. The team structure exists to enhance the experience — not to hand you off down a chain. When you work with Skyline Properties Group, you have consistent access to experienced agents who know your situation and stay engaged throughout.
Consistently and proactively. Both Joan and Ashley are known across their reviews for responsiveness — not making clients chase them down for updates. Whether it's phone, email, or text, the team adapts to how you prefer to communicate. You'll receive regular updates throughout the process, and you'll always know where things stand.
The team handles this regularly, and it's genuinely one of the stronger arguments for working with a team rather than a solo agent. Joan and Ashley have navigated simultaneous buy-sell transactions for clients across Greater Cincinnati and Southeastern Indiana, and the team structure means nothing falls through the cracks when you're managing two active transactions at once.
The key is coordination and timing. Start the conversation early so the strategy can be built around your specific circumstances.
Yes — dedicated closing and transaction coordinators are part of the Skyline Properties Group process. Their job is to keep the closing on track, manage the logistics, and make sure you're not left piecing things together on your own in the final stretch. Clients on both the buyer and seller side have access to this support.
Yes. Landlord services are a listed specialty for the team. Joan and Ashley both own rental properties personally, so this isn't a category they're unfamiliar with — they've navigated it as investors themselves. If you're looking to purchase investment property, sell a rental, or explore the landlord side of residential real estate, that's a conversation worth having.
New Construction & Investment
▼Yes — and this is genuinely a strength of the team. Joan's husband is a custom home builder and master remodeler in Greater Cincinnati. Ashley's father is also a custom home builder. Together, the team brings firsthand knowledge of the construction process that most real estate agents simply don't have.
They understand how to evaluate a builder's work, what to look for in a new construction contract, and how to represent your interests in a transaction that has its own set of nuances compared to a standard resale purchase. If you're exploring building a home or purchasing a newly constructed one, this team knows the landscape.
Yes. Consulting and landlord services are part of what the team offers, and Joan and Ashley have personal experience as investment property owners themselves. Whether you're acquiring your first rental property, expanding a portfolio, or looking to sell an investment property, the team can speak to the practical realities — not just the transactional mechanics.
The team has a real appreciation for this side of real estate. Joan grew up in a family of builders and developers, has built multiple homes personally with her husband, and has experience improving rental properties in the Harrison area. Ashley shares that background. If you're looking for properties with renovation potential or need guidance on what a flip project might realistically require, they can offer a grounded perspective — including what the market will and won't reward in specific neighborhoods.
