"Working with Johnny was a real pleasure."
We highly recommend their services to sellers. Working with Johnny was a real pleasure. He was knowledgeable, respectful, proactive when things began to happen quickly and thorough when we worked towards and ultimately through closing. My sisters and I appreciated his gentle heart towards us in light of the circumstances of our sale. He kept in close contact with us from the onset right through to the day we closed. He has even checked in a few times since then to see how we are doing. We highly recommend his services to a potential seller (or buyer for that matter!)
