"Helping people grow and be prosperous makes me happy.  I truly enjoy assisting people with their real estate needs.  Housing is a basic human need - everyone needs a roof over their head.  Beyond that, you can tailor your home to suit your preferences.  It is the passion within me to help others that drives me each day to help people with their real estate needs." John Rice, Realtor

Selected Client Testimonial - more can be found on our testimonial page:

"Dear John: I wanted to take a moment and thank you for the professional way that you handled our listing.  As you know our house had been on the market for a considerable length of time with a different realtor.  Once we made the decision to switch realtors, Jason and I had told ourselves that we were going to interview many different realtors so we got the one that would be right for us.  You were our first and only interview that we did.  Your professionalism and amazing presentation blew us away and as you know we signed with you on the spot.  At the time of the listing it was early December and we all fully agreed that we needed to hang with this listing through the tough winter months and would really look forward to something positive happening in March.  Within 5 days of signing with you, we had an offer and 3 weeks later, we were sitting at a closing table.  Jason and I would pray nightly to not have to continue to make double house payments and thanks to all of your hard work we started this year  with only 1 house payment.  Thank you again for helping us.  Please know we will be referring you both to anyone that is looking for a Realtor.  We wish you nothing but luck in the future." Jason & Christine

“John and I have been involved in some of the same networking groups for a few years, and I have always been impressed with his character and integrity. I asked John for help with the purchase of my home in 2006, after having met countless Realtors in my own search. John is by far the best-prepared, most dedicated, and highest rated Realtor I have met. In addition, John dedicates much of his time to community-oriented groups and associations. I would highly recommend working with John in any capacity.” D Estrada
