John Schommer - Real Estate Consultant

After forming a inherent distrust of Realtors over the last 40 years, John proved that some good, or should I say great still exists in his profession. Being that we lived in Texas, and had absolutely no contacts for a local Lender, Bank, Mortgage Company or Title Company, he was "Johnny on the Spot" in giving us local references that hit a home run. John continued to stress the importance of local knowledge for all involved. He was right, dealing with the 'locals" gave all parties involved a comfort factor, all the way down to the property insurer. It was so much easier to deal long distance with all of the above, as they all knew, dealt with, or closed a condo on that property. Initially, we spent some face to face time with John looking at properties, as I am a firm believer that the internet is not a absolute substitute for face to face personal service. I just like to shake some hands and look people in the eye before finalizing a deal of this size. He was more than willing at a moments notice to accommodate our in person requests, and always came loaded and prepared. Not once did he say, "I don't know", if he did not know the answer, it was I will find out and get right back to you. He was truly "Johnny on the Spot". The entire process went smooth, right through the closing. One last very important item, John is not a transplant, he is a local, born and raised in Florida. This proved very valuable because of his years of "local knowledge". What a breath of fresh air. We would use him again and again, and highly suggest that others give him the opportunity, as they will not regret it, and like me, restore some faith back into a profession, that over the years has lost some of the public trust. GREAT JOB MR. SCHOMMER

When John contacted me and said he was going to be working with us, I first thought we were being handed off to someone to just contact us every now and then as we had been looking for 4 years. I could not have been more wrong. To say John is a full service agent is a disservice to John. Lets say he is a complete full service agent as he did everything and more. He kept in touch through emails and phone calls letting us know what was available and what had been sold. When we were able to fly down, he scheduled the condos for us to look at. Advised us on what he thought were the good and bad points and walked us through the purchase process with the one we selected. It didn't stop there, he lined us up with inspection, insurance and mortgage companies. Even made some repairs that came up during the inspection process. I highly recommend John. Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!
