John was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions. He always explained everything and took the time to make sure we understood and no matter how many questions we had he always answered them. We were looking for a lake home and we appreciated his expertise and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor.

John was so patient and understand during the whole house hunting process! Always had what was best for us in mind! We didn't know much about the house market and what to expect when we first started but John made sure to make us feel comfortable and filled us with so much knowledge and answered so many questions we had through out the whole experience!

I would 100% recommend John to anyone whether its their first home or not

As we were from out of State, John made sure to be available in a timely matter to zoom the homes to us. He delayed his trip to ensure all went well on closing and followed up afterwards. He was great to work with!

John's attention to detail was much appreciated. He took great notes at each showing. He quickly zeroed in on what type of property we were looking for.

John is very personable and good at reading people. He quickly understood the relationship dynamics going on and buffered our house hunt impeccably.

John Colvin was very helpful, understanding, and patient during our house-buying experience. He answered all questions thoroughly, never pushed or persuaded us to purchase, and is very easy to talk to! I would highly recommend John and his team and hope to use Century 21 in the future when/if the time comes.

We lived on the west coast at the time while looking for a home in ND. John Colvin went above and beyond his responsibility as our agent to find us our forever home. We not only found the best agent but also a friend. We highly recommend John and Centry 21 for your home search!!

It was stress-free and the buying process
was quick.

He was easy going and a joy to work with!

If you are looking for an agent who cares about finding you the home you want, listens to you concerns and appreciates you as a client and treats you like a friend, John is who I would recommend for you!

We have now purchased three homes and sold the two previous homes with John Colvin. We originally reached out to John after getting to know him through the racing community. He has grown into a friend and when it comes to purchasing our homes we can rest easy knowing his experience has tremendous value and that we can trust him. We choose to have John help us in our buying and selling of our homes as we know he is not looking for just the sale but he truly cares about our needs! Thank you John.

Ashley Novacek
West Fargo, ND - Feb 3, 2020

John did such a great job helping me find a house in my price range. He was very timely in answering any questions I had. Viewings were set up in a timely manner and within my available time frames. There were a couple times he even moved around other appointments, or squeezed me in between appointments to make sure I was able to view the places I was interested in. It was great having John help me with this move. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a house.
Thank you so much for everything you did!

John made the complicated home buying process easy and enjoyable. He also treated more like a friend then a client and helped us find the perfect home. He also answered all our questions in a very timely manner. I very highly recommend working with John Colvin if you get the chance.

John's willingness to help and get answers for our questions really made John stand apart from others. John took the stress out of the buying process by getting answers for us quickly and thoroughly explaining the items and process to us.

I would highly recommend John Colvin. He's a great guy.

All the words above describe John Colvin to a tee.

John Colvin is very professional and yet he also makes you feel like family. He's a very easy man to talk to about anything; again I would highly recommend him. In my opinion. John did his job very well. He's so friendly and he had to put up with me calling him ALL the time. He's a very patient man!
