The team of John Daylor and John Daylor, Jr. at Joyner Fine Properties in Henrico VA is incredible. They went above and beyond what I could have expected to help me sell my parents' home. They stuck with me over the course of several years and multiple challenges to bring the home to market and get it sold. They provided expert advice and walked me through options at every step of the process. I am very grateful for them and cannot recommend them enough to prospective clients.
John has been our family and friends' trusted real estate agent for years, helping us buy and sell several homes over the past decade. When it came time to sell my father's house, we knew we were in the best hands. John handled the process with incredible sensitivity, patience, and professional care. He coordinated every detail seamlessly, kept our family informed at every stage, and secured a fantastic result for us. Whether you are buying your first home or navigating an emotional family sale, John is simply the best in the business!
I recently sold my primary home with John Daylor. Throughout the entire process John was personally engaged in every aspect of the sale. Given hes supported by a strong team behind him I would have expected him to pass on more than he did to his team. That wasnt the case I always felt well supported and well communicated with John. Ive bought and sold a lot of homes through the years and have never seen a realtor as engaged and proactive as John. His experience and expertise are what I hired him for and I got every bit of what I would have wanted. He also brought in specialists hes worked with for random, septic, and misc house punch out stuff. If I had another property to sell I wouldnt hesitate a second in choosing John again.
Working with John Daylor Jr. and the Joyner Fine Properties: Daylor Stiles Team to find and purchase our new home was an incredibly positive experience. Johns ability to truly listen, understand our needs, and thoughtfully guide us toward homes that matched our criteria was exceptional. Throughout the process, he and his team kept us well-informed and offered valuable insights as we considered our options. Most of all, John Jr.s steady presence and genuine support made this deeply personal milestone feel less daunting and more meaningful. Were grateful for the care and dedication he brought to every step of our journey.
As a first-time home buyer, John Jr and his team made what I anticipated to be a confusing, stressful experience feel surprisingly seamless! John Jr was incredibly knowledgeable, hardworking, supportive, and kind throughout the process, often working what felt like 24/7 to help me purchase the perfect home! I can't recommend John Jr more!!!
Selling a home can be overwhelming, but working with John Daylor and his team made the entire process smooth, strategic, and ultimately rewarding. From the very beginning, he took the sale seriouslyaEUR"especially when it came to preparing our home for the market. He guided us through every step of the prep process, connecting us with reliable professionals for repairs and upgrades at reasonable costs. At times, it felt like he was encouraging us to invest more than we expected, but in hindsight, every recommendation was spot-on. Thanks to his expertise, we received top dollar for our home. His team is another standoutaEUR"they were consistently available, responsive, and ready to help with any questions or needs that came up. We had already moved out before listing the property, and he went above and beyond to care for our home until the sale was finalized. If you're looking for a realtor whos committed, knowledgeable, and backed by a strong support team, we highly recommend John Daylor and his team.
John, Katie & team worked with me to sell my existing home and downsize to a condo. I can't say enough good things about how they were to work with. They provided guidance on how to get top dollar for my existing home. They have a wide network of related service providers that were able to help prepare my home and downsize for a smaller place. They also provided great support in working through all of the steps related to new construction of my condo. I highly recommend this team.
The Daylor Stiles Team did a great job with the sale of my moms house. This makes seven real estate transactions John Daylor's office has handled for me and my family over the past 30+ years (five for me, one for my daughter, and now one for my mother). John made suggestions on how to get the house ready to sell, and it went from MLS entry to close in 21 days. That has to be close to a record.
My experience working with John Daylor Jr was incredibly positive and the entire experience was very smooth. He provided reliable service with a proactive approach and strong market knowledge. He took the time to understand what I was looking for and remained available from start to closing (and after!). His team was consistently responsive and very supportive during the process. Highly recommend!
I highly recommend working with John Daylor Jr. As a first-time home buyer, he was extremely thorough in educating my wife and me on the home-buying process and all the aspects to consider. The team was very responsive and able to adjust to our needs and pace during the home-searching and buying process. They took the time to learn what was important to us and ensured our needs were met.
John was very professional and he has great knowledge to the area. I would use John again if I had another property to sell, my mother passed and I needed all the help I could get under the circumstances. His team was very helpful also guiding us all the way through to the end of the process. Please consider using John as your realtor.
I can't recommend John Daylor Jr. enough! He was a priceless resource for us going through the process of buying a home for the first time. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the Richmond market, but he also does an excellent job getting to know his us and helping us find the perfect fit! He and the whole Daylor team were incredible for the entire process from beginning to end!
When it came time to sell my sister's house (and even before) we were thankful to work with John Daylor and his great team at Joyner Fine Properties. It was a very bittersweet time for us as we had a lot of my sister's 'collections' to go through. John and his team were so helpful and understanding and helped us throughout the process. Once the house was on the market it only took several days to get a contract meeting the goals we were hoping for. Please look John Daylor at Joyner Fine Properties up to answer your questions before, during and after if you are planning to put your home on the market. They are the best!
I cannot recommend John Daylor highly enough! From start to finish, He made the entire process of buying my home and selling my home seamless and stress-free. John was incredibly knowledgeable about the local market, always available to answer my questions, and truly had my best interests at heart. His negotiation skills helped me secure my dream home at a great price, and his attention to detail ensured that nothing was overlooked. When it was time to sell my existing home in Short Pump, his knowledge of market conditions and buyer expectations helped me get my home in a position to sell quickly at a great price. Beyond their professionalism, The Daylor Stiles Team was genuinely kind, patient, and supportive throughout the entire journey. If you're looking for a realtor who will go above and beyond, look no further. Thank you, John Daylor and the Daylor Stiles Team, for making my home-buying experience such a positive one!
John Daylor Jr. was so great during our home purchase process. We had some pretty specific aEURoemust havesaEUR? on our list and John was so patient with us until we found the perfect one. He was very informative and helpful with tips and strategies for navigating the tough Richmond market. I think ultimately his great communication with us AND sellers realtors are what helped us land our home in a very competitive market.
We were very fortunate to be able to work with John Daylor when we needed to sell our house. He gave us honest feedback on what needed to be done to get it market-ready and helped connect us with professionals who took care of the changes or repairs. John or his team were always available when we had questions and he made us feel like he had our back in every situation. Our house sold quickly and we were very pleased with the price. We would recommend John Daylor to anyone planning to sell their house in the Richmond area.
I could not speak more highly of John Daylor and his team. He was recommended by an estate attorney, we gave him a call to see if he could come out to our properties (he was able to meet us onsite the same day!) to help us get an idea of the value of some recently inherited homes and what our options were base off the condition. Right off the bat we could see how knowledgeable he was about the market and offered professional guidance and suggestions when most needed. From the moment we hired the John and his team until closing everything went flawless, their teamwork is incredible, from the office to their closing team. He was able to get us way more than we could have dreamed for the homes and we were able to sell the houses within a week. I would recommend anyone looking in the area to hire John and his team!
John and team are great! Have purchased 2 homes and sold 1 with John. He and team have over delivered everytime. They help throughout every step of the buy and sell process. If I had any questions they were a phone call away. They also proactively get in front of potential issues. They are the best!
I had an excellent experience with John Daylor, Jr. and the Daylor Stiles team as a first time home buyer. I was moving from outside the area and John was very helpful in helping me to explore different areas and options. When I ultimately decided to purchase a new construction townhome, John provided valuable insights throughout the process and took the lead on communicating with the sales agent which I greatly appreciated. He regularly visited the site during construction and provided me with progress updates. Sometimes people question whether they need to use an agent when purchasing new construction, but I would highly recommend it, and John in the Daylor Stiles team in particular.
John Daylor & John Daylor Jr. were both so unbelievably helpful & responsive! John Daylor Jr. took extra time to really inspect and walk around multiple homes with us & for us through facetime until we found the perfect one! John demonstrated a level of knowledge about the area that was truly impressive and extremely beneficial throughout the entire home-buying process. From the moment we began our search, it was evident that he had an in-depth understanding of the local real estate market. His expertise in the neighborhoods, schools, amenities, local vendors and market trends was crucial in guiding us towards the perfect home. Joyner Fine Properties shows that they have your best interests at heart and I would highly recommend them especially if you are relocating and unfamiliar with the area!

My wife and I were thoroughly impressed with John Jr. and the Daylor Stiles team. His attention to detail and real estate knowledge were extremely helpful as we viewed numerous homes and went through the homebuying process for the first time. He also kept our opinions and concerns at top of mind and ensured to give us 100% no matter the time of day. He was extremely honest with each home we saw and went the extra mile to make sure we were more than satisfied with his quality of service. As 2nd generation Daylor clients on both sides of the family, we can genuinely say there is no better team to work with in Richmond.
John Daylor Jr was an absolute pleasure to work with from the initial house hunting stages to close! I would highly recommend working the Joyner Fine Properties team to anyone. Extremely professional team. They make the home buying process as easy as it can be- which is saying a lot!
Fantastic selling experience! House sold in one week. John is easy to talk to, direct, and to the point. He has a plan and it works.
We recently worked with John Jr. on our first home purchase. He and his team helped us navigate this process start to finish making it feel 10x easier! John was responsive and knowledgable, and we thoroughly enjoyed working with him. We would absolutely recommend the Daylor team for your home purchase or sales needs!
John did an outstanding job of helping me find a home that met a specific family need. As a remote buyer who was in the market for a home in the Richmond Area, his assistance and counsel in helping me with virtual and on site showings, coupled with his focus and organization all the way through the buying process was exemplary. Post closing, he has continued to follow up with me as a resource for contractors and vendors who can help me with repairs or modifications. The client experience with this purchase transaction has been stellar. Thank you John!!
John Jr. is a great agent to work with! He is professional, follows up quickly, excels at communication, is sharp with financials and thorough with due diligence on listings and contracts, and he also makes the process fun while searching for just the right property. He knows the Richmond region and is an expert in the whole home buying experience from A to Z! We definitely recommend buying a home with John Daylor Jr. and Joyner Fine Properties.
Working with John Daylor Jr. was a great experience! This was my first time purchasing a home, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. He was always flexible and made every effort to accommodate our schedule when meeting and seeing homes, and if not then a member of their team was ready to step in and help. We found a house quickly and closed in no time! He was knowledgeable and honest whenever we had questions, and it was truly a wonderful experience. Would 100% recommend working with their team! Thanks so much for everything, we are so excited for our new home!
John did an amazing job as a buyers representative in this tough market. He went above and beyond to secure a good house for us. He advised nicely at each step and answered all questions with patience. He was detail oriented even during final walkthrough and made it sure that we did not end up in a mess. We recommend John to anyone looking for a house. He is prompt, trustworthy and dependable. We are glad that we found you him!
John is extremely easy to work with due to his personable nature and market knowledge. The other great advantage of working with John is the large support group he brings, which includes coordinating employees, outside agents, legal experts, tradesmen referrals to perform various work, etc. It itruly a complete package of services from beginning to closing. John's approach is complete, confident and stress-reducing.
This was a totally great experience. John's advice on timing my sale and staging my house was spot on. His pricing advice was also right on! My house sold the first weekend it was on the market for more than the asking price. The John Daylor support team was also great. As the photo preparation and closing processes came up, Evelyn and Colin handled those phases professionally, courteously, and were very responsive.
We chose Joyner and the John Daylor Team because Joyner was one of the top listers in our area and the Daylor Team had experience selling homes in our neighborhood. Also, John sold our previous home two decades ago. We were particularly impressed with reviews of team member Katie Stiles, primarily as a Buyer agent. We believed that if she could do such a great job for buyers, she would do the same for a seller. Katie did not disappoint us. The listing and selling process was seamless and we accepted a great offer within a few days of listing our home. Katie maintained close communications with us and monitored the closing process to ensure a smooth closing. Katie was a joy to work with. We would highly recommend Katie and the Daylor Team to others looking to sell their home. Great job Katie! Phil and Debbie Whitehouse
I had an excellent experience working with John. Finding and buying a home can be a large undertaking, and my situation was further complicated as I was purchasing a property while living out of state. I was extremely impressed with Johns attention to detail and knowledge of the process, and I had confidence that I was in good hands every step of the way. John provided honest feedback on the various properties that I considered and was a trusted advisor in my decision making process. If I ever buy another home in the Richmond area, John will be my first and only phone call for a realtor. John Daylor has my full support and I wholeheartedly recommend that he be considered for your next home purchase.
John Daylor Jr. is fantastic to work with and kept us at ease in the process. He took the initiative and kept in touch with the entire process and we couldn't be more thrilled to have been represented by John. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking to buy or sell their home who will keep your interest in mind and respect your wishes. A big thank you to the whole Daylor Team!
John Daylor and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them on both the buying and selling side. We worked with John on both and he was involved with every detail, getting us top dollar for our house, and putting us at ease every step of the way. John picks up the phone at all hours. The best agent we have ever worked with.
John and his team showed why they are experienced and knowledgeable in the listing, selling and final closing of a property. The entire process from listing to showing to the closing where handled with the upmost professionalism.
John did an excellent job with the sale of my home. He was thorough, communicative, knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend him to anyone who is in the market for a new home or selling their home.
What a great experience with an amazing team! John Daylor helped to sell our house of 25 years this past summer and the entire experience was flawless. Fun fact: John Daylor helped us to buy that same house 25 years ago! What I loved the most was how accessible the team was, the incredibly professional photos, the articulate and effective write-up about our house, and how every detail was taken care of. I truly didn't have to worry about anything and I wouldn't use any other realtor. I highly recommend the John Daylor Team!
First, I want to thank John Sr. and the entire team for helping us with the sale of our house. It had been 28 years since we had sold a house and things had surely changed since then. Johns expertise in this market helped us get through this entire process. His knowledge of the Short Pump/West End area is fantastic! In our search for the right realtor our friends and acquaintances highly recommended John Sr. In our first meeting in person with John, he asked us how many other agents we were going to interview. He wanted to know which number he was. We told him, with a smile, that he was the only one we were going to interview as we felt he was the best. And boy were we right! He explained things so we could understand what was happening and he kept us updated every step of the way. We were never wondering what was going on. My husband and I would highly recommend John and his entire team for your home selling/buying needs. Thanks again John and team. Steve and Carla Tabor
John did such a great job with the purchase of my townhome. He was hands on and always there to answer every question I had. He went above and beyond to make the experience as seamless as possible for me. He has been the best realtor I have ever worked with and I would recommend him to anyone.
John Daylor helped sell our house and we couldnt be happier. John was very patient and easy to work with. His advice during the process helped present our home in the best possible way. His team was very professional and they were always available to answer all questions. They handled everything well and it could not have been easier for us! John came highly recommended to us and I definitely recommend him after working with him and his team. We also worked with Katie Stiles to purchase our new home. It was a difficult time to be a buyer and took 8 months of multiple offers to find our home! Katie was always available to show yet another house that we were interested in. It was a discouraging market but she continued to work hard to find us the right home! She went way beyond and helped us through every step of the way. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a patient, no pressure buyers agent! She is also a wonderful person too! Cant go wrong with the John Daylor team!
We are convinced that John's expertise is what enabled us to sell our home so quickly! His experience and knowledge of the market were amazing. On our first visit he provided us with data points and a strategy that helped us determine an optimal selling price. We followed his proven approach for staging and that brought great success! John and his excellent team were proactive and responsive through every step of the process. We highly recommend John Daylor and his team without reservation!
John was an excellent source of knowledge and worked extensively, on our behalf, to quickly and painlessly sell our home. He was an asset to our listing process and and made sure our best interests were first and foremost. I would recommend him time and time again to anyone looking to sell their home.
We met Katie during an open house and requested her to be our buyers agent based upon her knowledge of the area and her professionalism.We greatly appreciate Katie Stiles guidance in the purchase of our townhome in Feb. 2019 and the selling of our townhome in July 2022. In both transactions, Katie always had our best interest at heart. She is honest, friendly, efficient and a great negotiator. Katie always responds promptly to our questions. We absolutely enjoyed working with Katie!! We strongly recommend Katie!!In addition, John Daylor and his team support made the buying and selling process smooth. Thank you!
John Jr. and his team made the homebuying process incredibly easy and enjoyable for me. It has obviously paid its dividends that John Jr. grew up in the Richmond market and followed in the footsteps of his father and teammate, John Sr. John was very thorough during each walkthrough and knowledgeable re. the specs, potential issues and hazards that came along with each home we viewed. In addition to his overall understanding and knowledge of the Richmond market as a whole, John's communication skills, availability and effort he put into the homebuying process is second to none. Their entire team assisted with the closing of my home too and were willing and able to drop what they were doing to make it happen for me. I'd highly recommend John Jr. and the rest of the Daylor team to anyone local or relocating to Richmond. You won't meet a more professional group, well rounded group of agents in the city!
Katie works very hard with her clients to discuss the process, and as a first time seller that was very helpful. She had wonderful ideas on how to stage the home for selling as well as high quality contractors, painter, cleaners to assist her. She works tirelessly in the best interest of her client to make sure everything goes smoothly. She came highly recommended and she did not disappoint.
Our family had an amazing experience with John Daylor Jr. and his whole team of experts. John is knowledgeable, professional, and personable. We were very happy with our experience and feel that Johns skills really got us the best price possible for our home! We recommend John (and have already), as the sale of our home was quick, organized, and made less stressful by him and his team.
John was amazing to work with! As first time home buyers in a turbulent market, he did an excellent job setting realistic expectations for us and helping us understand the home buying process. John had great knowledge of the area and market we were interested in and always responded same day. We would highly recommend John and the entire Joyner team.
John, Jen and Gwen are awesome. Their advice and recommendations to prepare my home for the market were exactly what I needed. They communicated with me often checking to see if there was anything I might need. They were always available to answer any of my questions. John knows the market and my home sold very quickly. I am extremely pleased. They are a great team and working with them was truly a pleasure.
