Very Responsive Realtor with Excellent Knowledge of the Area

We were match up with Jon as part of a relocation package through my husband's new job. We felt like we hit the jackpot! Jon was very quick to respond to text messages and calls. He gave excellent and honest advice on individual houses, the market and the buying process. He had great suggestions and recommendations every step of the way as well as made himself available even at the last minute as houses, we were interested in became available. Jon proved very knowledgeable about various aspects of housing issues and conditions (foundation, water damage, siding, etc.) as well as costs to repair or replace that allowed us to make informed decisions. He was also extremely knowledgeable about the Grand Rapids areas with information that helped us become acclimated with our new hometown! Jon walked us through the process of purchasing our new home and kept us well informed throughout each step. We would highly recommend!

Outstanding Agent!

We thoroughly enjoyed and greatly appreciated our experience working with Jon. He was very generous with his time as we explored different communities and homes in the Grand Rapids area. We found his knowledge of the market to be extremely helpful from the beginning of our search to the point where we successfully negotiated the purchase of our new home. We are also grateful for Jon’s responsiveness. He was quick to text or call us with updates or when we had questions. He even assisted us at multiple points when he was away on vacation. Jon set us with a great lender and kindly helped us when we needed to let service providers into our new home before we moved to the area. Overall, Jon is an excellent agent and a nice person. We would recommend him highly to anyone buying a home in the Greater Grand Rapids area.

Good communicator with a wealth of experience

Jon was on top of our search from day 1, providing a saved search that alerted us to new listings. Despite a slow market at times, Jon was always willing to provide updates and chat about opportunities. Once the right house came along, Jon worked through his vacation to get a tour scheduled and compile all of the necessary paperwork to get a deal done. A pleasure through and through!
