Knowledgeable, attentive, and more than willing to go above and beyond! He was a true asset from the beginning through closing! John helped us navigate the process with ease, as we purchased sight unseen from Ohio.
This latest sale of one of my homes is not the first time I've used John Maisel's expertise in this Citrus County area, and that fact, coupled with the fact that I will use his knowledge in the future, says all I need say. Well done, John.
What a pleasure it was to have John as our agent. Not only did he actually listen, not our experience with realtors in the past. But he had the best negotiating skills, got us the house and many many extras!
Can't say enough how professional and helpful John was - this was a sale of my mothers home to settle an estate and I always felt John had our best interest in mind. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone who needed a realtor they could trust.
I recently worked with John Maisel on a house I had in Crystal River. When I placed it on the market with John, I thought it would take up to a year to sell. To my surprise and delight, John created a lot of interest locally and on the internet and he was able to sell my house in 2 weeks. The entire process was done professionally and without issues. John always kept me in the loop and helped me with any question I had. I have already recommended John and Active Agent Realty and will continue to. My neigh or across the street said "Man you have had a lot of activity on your house, I will use them when I am ready to sell. Thanks again John. Kirk Matthews
My wife and I were blessed to have worked with John Maisel. John was always thoughtful of our schedules and was never late for an apt. Myself also in the business of selling was impressed with his natural ability of making a purchase decision fun and enjoyable. He took his time to answer the "dumb" questions that we had, never being in the market before. We toast to you good sir... Thanks you for your time. It was a great buying experience. T and V
I have known John Maisel for a few years, and he has always been available for consultation and advice as I planned my transition from North Carolina back to Citrus County, FL. John's knowledge and expertise of the MLS listings suitable for my desired future home were outstanding. Additionally, John and his associates were extremely helpful in also providing me with in-depth information on FSBO properties that I was also interested in. I would highly recommend John Maisel and Active Agent Realty for all your real estate needs.
John Maisel in his work to sell and help us find another home exhibited all the skills and knowledge a real estate professional should have and at a high level. He did an excellent job of analyzing the market for our home to assist us with the proper pricing to get it sold in a reasonable period of time at a fair price. He was extremely skilled in presenting offers and counter offers leading to the successful sale of our home. He listened intently in our meetings to gain an understanding of what we were looking for in a new home which saved us time in visiting homes. He was available to show us homes on short notice despite a busy market. His skills are at a very high level and led to the successful purchase of a home that is just what we were looking for. John maintains a positive and respectful attitude throughout the process. He does not pressure people to buy because he wants his customers to make the best decision for themselves and their families. I would not enter the real estate market again without his services. I would not hesitate to recommend John and his firm to those sellers and buyers who are interested in a positive experience and a successful conclusion.
John has a good grasp of his chosen livelihood - very efficient. I am sorry we never met person to person but everything was handled well by phone a e-mail.
We purchased a condo in Crystal River this past July from John and he was extremely helpful in finding exactly what we were looking for. He has a ton of knowledge of the area and was always very accommodating to our schedule. The most impressive part of this experience is the patience that John had during a difficult situation with the Mortgage and Title company. He managed to keep me calm and continue to move the closing along with a smile always on his face. I would highly recommend John for any future purchases.
John was a terrific aid in finding our new home. He took us out on several home visits, as many as 50 total homes or more. Not only did he have terrific knowledge of the Citrus/Marion County areas, he gave us insight into the relocation process (like us, he moved down to Florida from a northern state). He was patient during our buying process and thorough in answering our many questions. John also brings a builder's eye to homes that can help point you in a confident direction. At the end of the process we felt like we not only found a wonderful home but made a nice new friend along the way.<br/><br/>It's worth noting that while we contacted several agents through Zillow, only John and another Active Agent realtor, David Bramblett, bothered to respond to us. Undoubtedly you would be smart to begin your search with a call to John or David, because you're unlikely to need to make another call after that.
out of the box thinking ... sells the house not the Market.. one word - AWESOME!!!<br/><br/>John takes pride in what he does it is not a job it is what he loves to do. he does not simply just post a picture of the house or property that was taken on his phone. He takes Pictures so it gives the customer looking to buy and idea of the benefits of the house before they make a drive out.<br/><br/>I recommend John to everyone I know.
