As a first-time homebuyer, I was overwhelmed at all the details and requirements of buying a home. It was a large learning curve but John and Brittany took their time and explained each step of the buying process. I truly could not have found better realtors if I tried. They made it enjoyable and fun while searching for property and continued to explain each step of the process, from going under contract, inspections, appraisal, and closing requirements. Thank you so much for all you did to help me become a homeowner.

I highly recommend John Permaul as a realtor. His knowledge and expertise shined through and made the selling of my home a seamless experience. It was a pleasure to work with him.

John Permaul is very professional, responsive, and friendly. It literally took us only 15 days from the time we met John to the day we went under contract as first-time homebuyers. A month later, we became happy homeowners! When we met John, we knew almost nothing about house hunting, and we were pretty nervous. John made it fun and made sure to teach us what we needed to know and give us valuable advice for this intense process. Whenever we had a question, he was one text away/phone call away. Whenever we wanted to visit a house, John almost immediately scheduled it around our availabilities. He was truly there for us from the very beginning till closing. We are grateful for all he did and we highly recommend him to everyone looking to buy or sell!

John was very professional and pleasant to deal with. As an agent as well I felt like he was very efficient and did everything he said he would do. Hopefully will get to work another deal with him being he made the process simple and enjoyable!

John is a great realtor! Being a real estate photographer, I work with many agents so having someone flexible and easy going like John is a major plus for me! If you need an agent who is easy to work with and provides great service, he’s your guy!

John has done an outstanding job for us on multiple transactions. He did his homework and was always a few steps ahead of everyone else involved. And despite being incredibly busy, he always showed up calm and prepared to handle the matters of the day. He knows his craft and can be trusted to represent both buyers and sellers with class and professionalism. Highly recommend!

John helped move my husband and me across 2 states over the course of a couple months as our buyer's agent. It was our first move in over 25 years. We contacted him with only a few day's notice and he went above and beyond to ensure we could find a house. John surprised us with how quickly he responded, the amount of time he spent, and the many miles he drove to show multiple houses within just one week. After many house showings across a good portion of East Tennessee, we found the one. Beyond the initial house search, John continued to be exceptional even while on vacation out of country. He helped us present a very competitive bid in a hot seller's market. His help ended up being the difference between winning and losing the house. Through out a less-than-ideal closing process of shifting date changes and even an instance of COVID, John remained on top of everything, handled numerous hurdles, and guided us through to a successful closing and move-in. Overall, John is likely one of the best in the business in the Knoxville area and I cannot recommend him enough. Without his professional, personable approach, our move would have been more difficult than it already was. Excellent communication, and understanding, and flexibility. Thanks for everything John!

John is one of a kind! We were lucky enough to come across his profile online and took a chance on him based on his profile and recommendations. We are so glad we did. John is an extraordinary realtor who is extremely professional, trustworthy and kind. We felt like we were working with an old friend. John goes above and beyond to help you find your perfect home. From the initial search, the research into the home, writing a contract, to all the details needed for closing; John is by your side with expert advice and guidance. There is never a phone call, email or text that goes unanswered and he always has time to talk through questions and concerns. Coming from out of town, we were not always able to see a home in person but John made us feel completely comfortable buying a home hundreds of miles away. We relied on John to be our eyes and ears in our search. He was tireless in touring homes for us on FaceTime and contacting seller's agents until we found the perfect match. Then, with the intense competition in the market, John's knowledge and advice were instrumental in the acceptance of our offer for our new home. John is a great person who cares about his clients. This is not just a job for him, he wants to be part of a family's happiness in a new town and new home. I can not imagine having a better partner in the real estate world.

John was fantastic helping my fiancé and I find our new home in Knoxville. We were moving from out of town, so weren't able to be in town until the day of closing. John did a great job doing video walkthroughs for us of homes for sale and getting us the information we needed in order to make the transition to homeownership in a new geographic location very easy.

We knew it would be a challenge to purchase a home in Tennessee while living in Florida. From the very first day, however, John assured us that he would take care of us, and that gave me peace of mind. John was timely in answering messages, even while he was on vacation. He was willing to ago above and beyond his job scope to meet customer needs. He was not only knowledgeable about the area, but also the purchasing process. John was a good listener, and made his first priority our satisfaction. He always kept in mind our budget and criteria for the house we would be happy in. We are glad that we chose John to be our real estate agent.

We lucked up and got John as our realtor by chance. It was the best "by chance" I think I have ever encountered. He is kind, considerate and easy to like as a person and professional and diligent as a realtor. Our property was difficult to market because of where it was, how we were wanting to sell it and the different types of interest that it created. But he got it worked out and sold in a much shorter time that we expected. Would highly recommend John and Coldwell Banker.

It has been a great experience working with John Permaul at Coldwell Banker. John was a tremendous help in our home purchase from countless phone calls endless text messages, John was there to help. With my pickiness and Jake a little on the inpatient side, John was persistent in helping us find the house that we would not only love, but would fit our budget as well! Through a couple offers and a few counters we are living in a house we call Home! We are very thankful for John’s hard work and dedication throughout this process. *Put your heart and soul into every activity you do, as though you are doing it for the Lord himself and not merely for others. - Colossians‬ ‭3:23‬ ‭TPT‬‬
