He is an outstanding Realtor® and represented us with total professionalism. His evaluation of the home-selling market was spot on and his recommendations on pricing strategy were insightful, and ultimately, proved to be the best direction we could have taken. We would definitely choose him to represent us in any future property sales. (Gary & Nancy I.)" "I cannot say enough about John. He worked tirelessly day and night to not only sell my home but to make my life easier in any way he could. He went above and beyond to make what is usually a stressful time as easy as possible. His knowledge of the real estate business was impressive but I would expect nothing else from DOBI! They are the best in their field by far. Thank you, John, for not only selling my home in a timely fashion but for always going the extra mile. And as a bonus, I made a friend in the process. (Debbie T.)" "Incredible attention to detail. Hard working, upbeat. The perfect person to take you from home to home to find the right one. Honest, caring and all around wonderful! Goes above and beyond for you! Highly recommend using this agent for ALL of your real estate needs and wants!!!!!!!! (Christine L.)" "This was my first time listing and selling a home, and John made it a painless experience. He was very upfront and honest about what would need to be done to the house to get it sold, and he was extremely responsive to questions. I can't recommend him more highly. (Rob R.)" "John Lionas was our Realtor® and we could not have been more pleased with our experience in working with him (and DOBI). We’ve sold and purchased a lot of real estate, so as cliche as it may sound, in this case, he made our entire process seamless! John is highly professional and extremely attentive to ALL details. Whenever anything came up, he was quick to reply and to react to all matters that needed to be addressed, including going to city hall to ask questions on our behalf because we are moving to the area from out of state. He has a personality that takes the stress out of an often stressful situation, whether buying or selling. We hope to not move again anytime soon, but should it come up, without hesitation we will call John! (Evanna P.)" "With John's knowledge of the area and a few of his characteristics, such as diligence, quick responsiveness, understanding, professionalism and honesty, it made working with him as our personal real estate agent a wonderful experience. We look forward to working with our new friend in the future and highly recommend him to anyone searching for a real estate agent. (Kyle V.)" "John was an incredible realtor! He helped us find our dream home, and get our own home listed and sold. He easily negotiated two deals for us at the same time, and even though there were so many moving parts, he was able to keep everything straight and was unfazed during the whole process. He was spot on with the listing price on our home, and even got us 3 offers and started a bidding war! We ultimately accepted an offer above our asking price. He also ensured that we did not overpay on the house we bought. We were very pleased with his service, and would recommend him to anyone who is looking to have the home-buying/selling process go smoothly...and he has a great sense of humor which always helps!
