"This was the first time we sold a house (where we had lived for 24 years). We cleaned and staged our house to sell. John walked us through all the steps. He did what he said he would do and was easy to contact by phone or email. He helped us price our house appropriately. Our house went on the market and closed within 90 days, without reducing the price."

"John is the best real estate agent. He is very knowledgeable and the most important, he is always listening to our concerns and needs. He helped us analyze the pros and cons of each home, tried to find the best fit for our needs. He helped us negotiate with the seller and in the end, we got a very good deal. We have lived in our new home for about a year. Till now, he still calls us sometimes to make sure everything goes well. If you need a trustworthy agent, I would recommend John without reservation. "

"John was our buyers agent when we were shopping for our first home. He was excellent, 5 out of 5 stars (I'd give him ten if they would let me!). Throughout the whole process John with instrumental, professional, available, accommodating, knowledgeable and enjoyable to be around. His construction background was extremely helpful in evaluating the condition of the homes we saw and in understanding what the time and cost of fixing or upgrading things might be. Not only was John extremely professional (we always felt he had our best interests at heart), but he always went the extra mile. He made himself available at all times and answered all my numerous emails and calls quickly and thoroughly. He set-up appointments for us to meet the neighbors, ask questions to the title officer, all inspections, etc, etc and came along to all these meetings to help out in any way. This was extremely helpful for us as this was our first time through this whole process. He was also extremely patient. We were very picky shoppers that definitely weren't willing to pay "sticker price" for our home; we wanted to get a great deal, especially given the economic climate. In addition to regular bids, we also bid on short sale homes, foreclosures and bank owned properties and he was instrumental in helping guide us through this difficult and time consuming process. His extensive knowledge in real estate contracts and negotiation strategy allowed us to make competitive and attractive offers even if our bid price was much lower than asking. In the end, we got our dream home and we couldn't be happier. We couldn't have done it without John! "

"John recently helped my wife and me with the purchase of our first home. John was very helpful in educating us on all the particulars of the contracts and agreements of which neither my wife nor I had any experience. John went well out of his way to achieve an extremely tight closing date, working in the evenings and weekends to get our house closed on time. We both can’t say enough about how helpful it was to have John as our agent."
