My fiancé and I bought our 1st home with John Menke in December 2015. During the entire process he was so very helpful and eager to answer the many many questions we had. He was always kind and a pleasure to work with! Thanks John :)

Do yourself a favor and have John Menke as your agent. We were shopping from Virginia for a house in Orange County. John suggested lenders and vendors to help with the process. He went to every house we asked about and took video since the pictures of the houses for sale used angles selected by sellers and their agents to show the best of the houses and not the worst. For example, we loved a 1920’s bungalow in Fullerton, but didn’t notice that there were no photos of closets. That was because there were almost no closets! We would have put money on that house if John hadn’t gone and made a video and sent it in an email the same day. (We were leaving a home with 3 walk-in closets.) John answers his phone always. We were calling at times convenient to us from the east coast and he answered even if it was inconvenient on the west coast. Our closing was complicated, so John was constantly checking in with the lender and the bank to be sure everything was on the right track. We felt like we were his only clients although he closed several houses and had properties for sale during our buying time. Also, he was tireless in his work even before we were viable buyers because it took longer than we expected to sell our house in Virginia. He went out looking at properties for us anyway so he would have a sense of what we liked once our house sold and we had only 2 weeks to decide on what to buy. He was able to negotiate terms with our seller that are unusual in this day and age. He is a diplomat, a gentleman and a great bargainer!

John helped us find our new house in under a month. He knows the Moreno Valley area very well and always quickly answered any questions we had about the home buying process. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor.

I never dreamed of being a homeowner! After trying two different realtors who didn't seem too interested in helping me I came across John. Wow! As a first time home buyer with no knowledge whatsoever I am forever thankful I came across John Menke. He understood my needs. With his knowledge of residential areas and his given word to help me find a safe home for me and my family. Always available whenever I needed him whether to view a home or via email just to rant and stress about the process. He always went one step above and beyond for me. I believe it it his integrity that makes him an exceptional person and realtor. And know he will do the same for you! You will not be disappointed!

John was really patient with my brother and I as we are first time home buyers. He showed us a ton of different options and gave really helpful advice on each one. I would highly recommend using John for any home buying needs!
