John Sturdevant is the realtor you want to make your dreams come true. For over two years my…read morehusband and I were looking to get into a community we wanted to make our "forever home". He questioned me as to exactly what I was looking for and kept in constant contact whenever something became available. In a very competitive market we sadly got outbid a few times, but John never gave up. And then it happened, he found us the perfect place. We had used two previous realtors who just were not "quick on the draw" and so we are very appreciative of John. If you're looking for a realtor who will get the job done then you are needing John Sturdevant.

The process to sell our old house was much easier than a I thought with John by our side, he got the most highest bid and put a good amount of money in our pocket for the down payment on our new home. He worked hard and fought for us to get the best deal, he also made sure we got the lowest payments and interest rate. My family and I recommend John 100% and I will hire him again for my kids future home. Even now that all the deals are over he keeps checking if we liked our new house and helps me fix any concerns or issues. Like I said he is part of our family. Thank you so much John we appreciate you!!!!!!!

I consulted David Perez, a real estate agent of Bullock Russell Real Estate Services for a home I…read morewas interested in possibly purchasing in the mountains. I had originally met Mr. Perez when he was the buyers agent for someone who invited me to view the property they were purchasing with his help. Months later I was in discussions with a different agent and broker about selling property. I had asked that agent to go with me to a property in the mountains I wanted to view. That agent committed to following up at the beginning of the new week, and e-mailed their team members, promising one of them would contact me. Unfortunately, no one associated with that agent ever followed-up and the property I was interested in became contingent and no longer available. I continued to watch the property, and about five months later the property fell out of escrow and was relisted for sale. My experience with the agent I had been in discussions with lost my trust and confidence. I didn't feel they valued me as a potential customer for a sale, and they showed I couldn't trust them for showing me property or negotiating property. Perhaps if I had asked them to sell my car, or help me buy a car, that would of been different. But when you are dealing with hundreds of thousands of dollars into the millions, i'd have to be insane to work with anyone I can't trust. I contacted David Perez of Bullock Russell Real Estate Services since I already had his phone number, he had already helped someone I know purchase a property, and he seemed very knowledgeable when I had previously met him. To my surprise David offered to show me the property, despite knowing it would require several hours of his time, and a three hour round trip drive. He also knew, it was the only property I was looking at in California. David contacted the selling agent to request a time for us to view the property, met at the property on a Saturday, walked me through all the different areas within the property and pointed out issues that concerned him about it. He estimated it may need an addition $250,000 investment to bring it up to code and to correct several concerning issues, including a notice we found on the door from the county indicating it was in violation of several codes. David recommended not purchasing the property and explained why, and that is what a buyer or seller wants and needs from a real estate agent. Someone who is honest, trustworthy and genuinely helping you evaluate a property. I found David very friendly, eager to assist, professional, and knowledgeable. He was able to answer all of my questions about the property being looked at and saved me from making a bad purchase. I didn't buy that property and decided to hold off on property hunting while I determine what state or area I want to look at going forward. I interviewed 5 or 6 different agents and brokers so far, and I found it difficult to find one who I feel I can trust. When dealing with so much money, and something so important, I want someone I'd feel comfortable leaving my wallet on the table around if I had to leave the room. I can only speak to my experience, but I feel confident all my money would still be in my wallet if I left it in the room with Mr. Perez, or when making a decision for buying real estate.

I have bought three (3) homes from Mark Thoburn and have worked with him as my only realtor since…read more2003. If I was just reviewing Mark on my home purchases, I would give him a full five stars, but that isn't the only aspect of me and my wife's relationship with Mark. First of all Mark is a great human being who is more interested in making sure you are achieving your life goals than simply making a commission. He always answers his phone, and in the rare case it goes to voicemail, he returns the call same day. Mark is patient and not pushy; we lived in our second home for 14 years before we were ready to upgrade. Mark was always there for us, ready when we were. He is ever ready with helpful advice that doesn't always pertain to home selling or purchasing. His salesmanship skills are second to none; we sold our second home through Mark so that we could buy our third home, and we listened to his advice. The home sold in 48 hours, while our neighbors houses are STILL for sale. Each of our homes was a stretch for us because of many different factors. Mark got this, and also got the fact that not everyone has a perfect home buying financial profile. Last but not least is Mark's wife Theresa who does all of the purchase paperwork and helps Mark put the deals together. 100% correct documentation that is delivered fast. What more could you ask for. Mark Thoburn is not only an excellent realtor, he is now a lifelong friend and I would never, ever buy or sell anything without him. Would give him 10 stars if I could.

He handled both sides of the transaction exceptionally well. On the buying side, he guided us through pricing, market conditions, and negotiations, and we landed right within the range he had estimated. On the selling side, he advised us on pricing strategy, comps, and preparation, and we sold our home within the exact range he originally projected, which speaks to how accurate and data-driven his approach is. Ryan is extremely knowledgeable, meticulous, and detail-oriented. He understands both real estate and the psychology of buyers and sellers, and he remained calm and steady during what can be a stressful process. His communication skills truly stand out. He stayed consistently engaged through email, text, and regular phone calls, and I never felt under-communicated with. I am very analytical and like to debate and understand the reasoning behind decisions. Ryan always backed his recommendations with solid data and clear logic, never asking us to rely on opinion alone. We interviewed four local realtors before choosing Ryan, and that decision proved to be absolutely the right one over the five-month process. He also has a strong network of trusted contractors and service providers. Overall, Ryan is professional, analytical, and highly competent. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
