CRISTINA was always very upbeat, honest, positive, and knowledgeable throughout our home buying process! . . .countless property viewings, escrow at two potential houses, and all the way through signing! She didn't let me spend a single extra dollar, she found the fastest and most cost affective avenue at every junction, and made sure to have a professional inspection to protect our investment, and to give us power in negotiating final pricing. She even found me the best local lender that beat my own banks offers. This is why I can say that we have built a lasting bond and relationship with Cristina! My wife and I were so fortunate to have her through our buying process and now as a life friend. I am confident that I would recommend Cristina John to my best friends and family. Cristina John will be 100% my only realtor in every real estate transaction I make in the future! Hands down outstanding performance! Coffee with Cristina John anytime! =]

Cristina is a master of her craft. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her! From start to finish, she was professional, attentive, honest, forthright, communicative, and negotiated one heck of a deal for us! The sellers did not abide by the agreed move out date/time and to our surprise were still moving out when we arrived to move in. Cristina could not have handled the situation any better. She sprung into action and devised a solution where we could move in while they moved out. Even when the sellers exhibited atrocious behavior, hostility and verbal insults, Cristina kept her cool and did acted above board. She is unbelievably good at her job and we would recommend her to everyone looking to buy or sell. She's a gem, an angel, and I am incredibly grateful for her and admire her strength of character!

I've seen hundreds of properties, and worked with dozens of agents. I've never seen such concerning behavior from a realtor, as with Cristina. At a bare minimum, she was not able to fulfill the obligations that a Realtor A(R) is supposed to. In the open house she was very friendly. So much so that I opted to let her represent me. Big mistake. Cristina was clearly NOT ABLE to handle duel representation. She was not only rude to me personally, but her actions show that she had seller's interest at heart over mine. I wouldn't recommend Cristina as a realtor. She is can't compartmentalize, and is too emotional.

Cristina was willing to take on a tricky sale when other agents wouldn't take it on. I was very appreciative of her willingness to work with us. It was a short sale as the home needed some serious updating such as HVAC and plumbing. It had been my parent's home and was full to the brim with 60 years of household items. Cristina let us know just what we needed to do to get the house ready for sale and kept us from spending too much on clean up and cosmetic work (such as giving us good advice about how much landscaping we should do). She was patient with a lot of "cash" buyers who came through during the estate sale and vetted all interested parties so that it was easy to decide which offers were the most probable to result in a sale.

Cristina is an expert in her craft of knowledge in real estate and an expert in applying her knowledge in a personal way to the people she serves. My Fiance and I were looking for our first home ever, and Cristina was with us through the let downs of being over bid, and the elation of having our offer accepted, on what was the perfect home for our new family. When it came to negating for the seller to cover costs of major repairs in this competitive seller's market, Cristina had our best interest all the way, and we came away having more than we could have hoped for, covered in full. All in all we recommend Cristina with the highest recommendation, and if we choose to sell our home years down the road we will be giving her Cristina a call. Sincerely, David and Wendy; truly grateful clients.

Professional, knowledgeable, helpful. Cristina went above and beyond in helping us get the best price by providing outstanding service in all capacities, from staging, photos and online presence. If you want an advocate that will work with you and for you in a real estate transaction partnership and have timely communication, she is the best agent for you.

Thanks to Cristina John who diligently sent us a listing of new homes periodically, my husband and I finally found a great new custom single home property in a great location in Beaverton area last year. We actually just closed on that property in April 2011 with Cristinas help as a buyers agent. From the beginning, Cristina was always very professional, punctual, friendly and accommodating to our needs. Every questions we asked Cristina no matter how ridiculous it may sound, she always kindly gave us prompt answers and she made sure that we understand completely. Cristina is honest, hardworking realtor, ethical and what we especially appreciate about Cristina is that we can trust her that she is always looking out for our best interest, especially in dealing with the builder and the seller. We are grateful to have Cristina as our realtor, and without any hesitation we will recommend Cristina to our colleagues, friends and family.

I had a job transfer to Southern California and had to leave before selling my home in North Portland. Cristina was AMAZING to work with and handled everything smoothly and remotely as most of my business had to be conducted by phone, fax, email and through trusted friends. She has extraordinary integrity. She was the third and by far the best agent. She actually listened to her client and got the job done, and the deal closed.Her recommendations on staging and negotiation skills got me top dollar in a tough tough market in 2008. I would recommend her highly. I look forward to working with her when I return to purchase a home.

Cristina is a consummate professional. She understood our needs, work around our guidelines and schedules, and allowed us to go through our,at times, ambivalent consideration process. We postponed buying, visited about 30 properties and Cristina; even while 8 months pregnant; continued being extremely attentive and supportive.She was recommended to me by a friend and I now recommend her to all of my friends.

Review

Cristina was my agent for well over two years. In this time, she PATIENTLY showed me several homes that were in my very minimal price range. Never once did she make me feel like I was wasting her time, (especially since she would not be making much money off of me). At one point, my search took me in a different direction, and Cristina wished me well, and said she would still be there if my search took me back to the area. About a year later it did, and like she said, she was right there, ready to show me more homes. When I finally found the house I REALLY wanted, I was a bit hesitant to even start the offer process because it was over my budget. Cristina urged (she was professional about it, she did not push me, nor did she pressure me) me to go forward to "just see" if we could get them to come down. I'm happy to say, that with her fabulous negotiating skills (we must have gone back and forth four or five times), she got them down a few thousand below my budget AND got them to pay for more in closing costs. After I moved in, the other realtor came by to pick up his signs and he said to me "you had one heck of a realtor, she clobbered me in the negotiations". Cristina was there for me throughout the closing process and helped me with the appraisal and ANYTHING else that comes with closing on a home. To this day, a year and a half later, she periodically checks in with me to make sure things are going well, and continues to offer her services with recommendations of handymen, plumbers, property managers, etc. I know that I can call her with ANY question regarding my house (and probably anything else as well), and she will help me. Throughout my home buying experience, Cristina never failed to respond to any of my inquiries. Most of the time, she would respond within the hour. Anytime I saw a house I wanted to see, she was readily available. At times, I would feel bad for dragging her out to show me a house and then me, once again, not be interested in it at all. But again, she NEVER made me feel like I was wasting her time. It was important to her that I found the perfect home for myself and my daughter.I would, and do, without hesitation, recommend Cristina John to anyone who is searching for a realtor in the Portland area. She won't let you down. Because of her patience, her persistance, and her tough negotiating skills, I have a house that I love.
