Bob & Karla Raymond

We interviewed several agents to assist us in selling our home, the first thing John did was listened to us, he got a complete understanding of what we were seeking and the timeline that would work for us. All phases of the experience we 100% professional, accurate and informative. Our home sold in the timeline that we were planning and most importantly the selling price hit the target! John was very educational in all of the areas that if one is not a realtor one would have no idea the requirements to meet all the needed items to close successfully. We would very highly recommend John as he exceeded our expectations!

John assisted me with the purchase of my home. Over the course of the home buying process, I found John to be extremely knowledgeable and very patient during the decision making process. He always responded to me in a timely fashion and was on top of things from start to finish. I know he is a busy agent; however, I always felt I had his undivided attention. He always personally appeared for each showing, took as much time as needed to answer questions, and I never felt rushed. I recommend John enthusiastically and without the slightest hesitation.

Thank you so much John for your patience, persistence and guidance during the sale of our house. You've made what can be a very challenging and stressful process manageable, and always made Lisa and me feel like we were your top priority. You are a true professional and we have very much enjoyed working with you and getting to know you.

John did a great job. We were relocating with our family from Seattle to Florida and he provided great local expertise. In one weekend we saw many houses in many neighborhoods. In that first weekend we found the house we wanted. From there John navigated us through the real estate process with ease. We closed on time with the house we wanted at the right price.

I strongly recommend John.

John is one of the best realtors I have worked with. He was honest, knowledgeable, and unfailingly responsive. We had to leave town before our sale was final and John took over and handled everything!
