"As first-time homebuyers, we were nervous about the process, but John made everything easy and stress-free. He was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and patient, always taking the time to answer our questions and guide us through every step (and there are so many steps and forms!). Beyond the purchase, John has continued to help with outstanding issues related to the house. His kindness and A+ follow-through truly went above and beyond. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated realtor in the Monterey area!"

"Working with John was an absolute pleasure from start to finish! From the very first meeting, it was clear that he genuinely cared about my needs and was fully committed to finding the perfect home for me. His friendly demeanor made the entire process enjoyable, and his extensive connections all over town ensured that I had access to the best properties and services available. What truly set John apart was his ability to solve problems quickly and efficiently. Whether it was navigating tricky negotiations or handling unexpected challenges, he always had a solution at the ready. I never once felt overwhelmed or lost, because he was there every step of the way, guiding me through each decision with care and expertise. If you’re looking for a realtor who will go above and beyond to ensure your experience is smooth and successful, I highly recommend John. He’s not just a realtor—he’s a true advocate for his clients. Thank you, John, for making this such a positive experience!"

"John was the best choice we could have made when we decided to purchase a home in Pacific Grove. The process took about 8 months as the inventory was low and often the available homes were not meeting our criteria. John always took as much time as needed to review neighborhoods, properties or any other questions we had. He was also able to steer us away from properties that we should avoid. I think that the best part of Johns service was after we zeroed in on a home. He was an expert at helping us review the property and come up with a fair offer and then expertly negotiated the terms to close the purchase. After we were in escrow and after closing he was at the house making sure everything was proper for us. This was big step for us and we are so happy we found John to make sure it all went smoothly."

"My wife and I were lucky enough recently to have John help us purchase a new home in Monterey. He came highly recommended from a friend who worked with him previously. From the beginning, he was easy to work with and took inventory of the priorities we had for our new house. He constantly kept these in mind and updated them as they evolved throughout the process. Our search together consisted of several viewings together and frequent texts as we refined what we were looking for. Throughout the process, we felt John was an excellent communicator and was completely in tune with what we were looking for. His advice along the way was invaluable and he offered great insight into everything ranging from the temperature of the housing market, to details about a particular house or neighborhood, to strategy when it came time to make an offer. When we did so, I truly think that his interactions with and respect from the seller’s realtor was what set us apart from several other buyers also pursuing the property, allowing us to get the home. We have nothing but good things to say about John. He is extremely personable and easy to work with, and is a fantastic choice for a realtor on the Monterey Peninsula."

"John was flawless from beginning to end. He offered thoughts on how to find value in a home. When we were anxious about inventory, he shared insights that gave us patience. If we saw something we liked, he was unapologetic if he found something he was hesitant about. When we did put in an offer he provided solid council on what proved to be the best approach. John was able to leverage his contacts to complete the maintenance needed within two weeks and under budget. He and his team were also able to provide rental income ranges for our investment property prior to purchase. When we closed on the home, John’s property management team had it rented, within their estimated range, all within a month of closing. You’ll tire of reading if I listed every step that John took to ensure that from the moment we stated looking to the day tenants moved in how thoughtful he was. We have had a few real estate purchase experiences. John is a good person. He gives thoughtful guidance and is ahead of any detail that arose for us. I’m thrilled we were able buy this home and I am happy that we were able to do it with John."
