I first met John when he helped a neighbor with closing on her townhome. At that time, she had very high regard for John and the ease she had in the closing because of him. Since then, my husband sold his home through John and we purchased our current home with him. There was no question in our mind who we would work with in selling our townhome (most recent sale) in addition to other property transactions we are currently pursuing. John is great at communication, great at helping us to understand the pros and cons of each decision we make with the townhouse, and working to get the best net proceeds after sale. He is not only a trusted real...

John was great throughout the entire process. He kept us informed to relieve the stress of selling the home. I would recommend John to anyone wanting to sale or purchase a home. He is honest, professional and very thoughtful

John did EVERYTHING that was needed to both prepare our home to show and to sell. He gave good counsel after the first day or two of showing and regarding the various offers. His feedback and response to questions was helpful, understandable, and immediate. He was extremely attentive. We can't say enough positive about him. A real gentleman, a man of integrity, and good at what he does, in our instance, selling our house.

John came highly recommended by a coworker of mine while living in South Korea. Moving to the DC area for the first time was stressful, but John made finding a place to live easy. John was everything my friend described: detailed, punctual, thorough, and patient. John was all this and more. John provided a Great experience and I look forward to referring John to anyone I know coming to the area in the future.

I used John before and was so overly pleased that when it came time to sell another house there was never a consideration that I would use anybody else. I only made one phone call and that was to John Montemayor! I couldn't envision a better agent. Thorough, proactive, very communicative, and a true gentleman. I have bought and sold 5 houses in my life, and John is the best agent I have ever worked with.. by a mile!

He leaves no stone unturned and makes great recommendations. We will conduct all of our Virginia real estate purchases with John, period! ...

John helped us buy our first home, then, six years later he helped us sell that home and buy a larger home for our growing family. Thank you John for your patience in our long home search process, for educating us, for taking calls whenever we had a question, even when it wasn't directly related to your job description, and so much more.

John was thorough, very detail oriented, and quick to respond to our questions. He made selling our house very easy and stress free. The best decision we made was hiring John to be our agent.

This was our third transaction with John Montemayor and we couldn’t be happier with the level of service and professionalism John brings to every transaction and every Interaction. John always takes the time to fully explain the process and any expectations regarding the specific transaction at hand. One thing I really appreciate is John’s attention to detail and consistent follow ups (whether there are updates or not). This in particular is a quality I greatly value as I am an out of state client. Additionally, I find great value in the reports, comps, market stat evaluations and historical trends which John organizes at the beginning of each trans...

We originally wanted to put our house on the market in feb 2020, but thought there would be fewer people interested in buying during the pandemic. So we took a tenant instead up to January 2022 and hoped we would still be in a sellers market. John easily restarted our campaign and guided us through some physical improvements to the house and sales trends. After the improvements and our open house in Jan 2022, we had a satisfactory offer in one day. Thanks to John patiently standing by and continued communication for more than a year, we sold our home faster and with a better outcome than we would have had in 2020.

I believe John saved us a lot of money and worked very hard to ensure that we received "top dollar" for the home we sold.

Mr. Montemayor’s knowledge of the local/national market and his ability to convey that knowledge to myself far exceeded any expectations I had. Century 21 Redwood Realty did an excellent job with my home buying process. They were consistently available, friendly and proficient. Mr. Montemayor was extremely professional. He built an environment where my family and I felt taken care of while being able to ask any questions. He answered his phone and email all hours of the day and night. He didn’t hesitate on any occasion to view a house, contact a listing agent or generally do anything we asked. Century 21 Redwood and more specifically Mr. Montema...

If you want someone who pays attention to the details, then you need John Montemayor! Through his hard work, we were able to not only buy what we wanted at the price we wanted, but do it in a timely fashion!

John was fantastic through the whole process start top finish. He was completely knowledgable of pricing and homes in Montclair and was the ultimate professional. I would highly recommend him.

John was a true professional in every aspect of the sale and I would highly recommend him.

There are probably lots of solid brokers out there. John M is in a class by himself--peerless integrity, professionalism, knowledge, to name just a few important qualities. I'd have been nuts to select someone else. John nailed every aspect of the sale from start to finish. Clear communication at the beginning laid out clear expectations and helped us understand the process. Constant communication kept us informed at every stage--he sent so many updates it was hard to keep up with them all! Could not have asked for a more competent, caring, and knowledgeable professional! By any measure, John exceeds all expectations in all areas: Polite, Unders...

John simplified the process of home buying with his expertise every step of the way. His attention to detail is unmatched and he was extremely thorough and responsive! We are so thankful for John and already plan on using him for our next military move! He treats his clients like family and truly cares for your best interests!

I contacted Century 21 Redwood Realty and John Montemayor because I was very impressed with their web site, and I am very glad I did. I have sold several houses and John Montemayor was by far the best agent I have worked with. His professionalism, attention to detail, and communication skills are outstanding. John assisted us in getting our house ready for the photographer and for showings. He arranged and accompanied the photographer and produced an amazing online listing! Our listing went active at 10 AM and in less than 6 hours we had a solid offer for more than we had expected, what more could anyone want? The Century 21 Redwood Realty team supp...

John proved to be very hard working, knowledgable, and reliable. He frequently communicated with us and was extremely fast in returning communication.

From helping me understand all the details of the home buying process to showing me dozens of houses and helping me narrow down my choices. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking to buy a house, especially if you are new to the town and/or are a veteran. You will not regret it!

John made the home buying process very seamless and fun. He was a huge asset to us and was extremely knowledgeable about what we should be looking for in our first home. He also handled everything in a very timely manner. He communicated with our lender to make sure we closed by a strict closing timeline with no hitches. We will not hesitate to recommend him to anybody looking for a home in the area.

John made the sale seem perfect. Everything went along with no problems for us. He was very thorough. If we were to sell again we would certainly prefer to use Mr. Montemayor without even calling anyone else. We have already referred him to anyone we talk to and will continue top do so.

Not only did John enable me to receive a great price for my home, he always kept me informed about the housing market through emails and newsletters.

John was completely involved in the process from start to finish. Amazing knowledge base and very well prepared. John is the best real estate agent I have ever worked with! Wonderful service, maximized our profits, full asking price for our home. Highly recommend!

John pulled the sale of our home over the goal line in spite of a global pandemic. That level of commitment is truly rare!

John Montemayor was great to work with, from start to finish. He was patient with my wife and four-year-old son, flexible when we hit hiccups, and timely with the paperwork. No pressure and truly on our side, pointing out flaws and problems in some houses that we might have overlooked, keeping us from making mistakes. He got to know us and made sure we got into the right house for our needs and budget. John came highly recommended by several family friends who had worked with him previously and had nothing but high praise for him, all of which turned out to be completely well founded. Frankly, John is the ultimate professional, a master of his cra...

Professional, classy, extremely respectful and took extra time to explain all aspects of my purchase.
