This was our 2nd time dealing with John, we're currently on the 3rd! Does that not say enough. For this review...I've have to bump up his negotiation skills greater than 5! He again gave good, sound advice and insight, as well as negotiated expertly. Thank you John.

John sold our house faster and for a higher price than we thought was possible. His knowledge of the sales process was invaluable. He responds to texts, emails, and phone calls like he's been waiting to hear from you. With John, the path from "we're going to sell our house" to "we sold our house" was fast, low stress, and profitable. We were fortunate to have worked with John.

I highly recommend John Raker! He is a true Real Estate Professional that goes above and beyond to ensure the very best outcome. Based on his feedback and recommendations we were able to sell our home at asking price. John is extremely knowledgably of the market and the entire buying/selling process and has a extensive list of professionals that can help with inspections, surveys and repairs.

John Raker is very knowledgeable and professional. He was very responsive and always available to answer questions. We have now used his services twice because he is simply the best! He is so well organized that he kept everything on track for us and made everything smooth for us. Having dealt with other realtors in the past, John is a gem. And you cant go wrong with him as your realtor.

Mr. John Raker is wonderful, profesional and very trust worthy. This is not the first home we have listed with him and every time he has gone above and beyond to make the buying and selling experience very easy and understandable. He is very knowledgeable and was able to guild us in the processes. I had many questions and he just made me comfortable with the information he provided. This agent is top notch
