Jeff Johnston

    • Jeff Johnston was the most professional realtor we have worked with. We had a frustrating time getting our offers accepted due to being outbid, but Jeff was very diligent about helping us find the home we really wanted and expertly negotiated until we finally got our house! If we were to ever move again, we would most definitely call Jeff. I would also highly recommend him to everyone I can. He knows what he's doing and is a very nice guy on top of that!

    • He was very patient and understanding in guiding us through the process of buying a short-sale home. He helped us present a very strong offer, and we beat 12 others and got the home of our dreams. Jeff also helped our son and daugher-in-law buy a short-sale home two years ago. When we saw the effort he put into finding them just the right home, we decided to use his services instead of an agent recommended by a friend, and were not disappointed. Thank you, Jeff, we love our house!

      - Frances Walker
    • If you want an agent with:- Extensive local expertise- A well-honed network of other agents- That is well known and respected within his community of agents- That takes you to a prospective home, and leaves you alone to get a sense of the house, without a background narrative- Someone that will negotiate with your interest in mind. Then look no further than Jeff. It was an absolute pleasure working with Jeff. His patience in working with a very demanding client was so appreciated. Jeff walked with us in our shoes looking for a home for six months, not missing a beat. In all this time, Jeff was always friendly and very personable. Just go with Jeff, you will not be disappointed.

    • Couldn't be more pleased on having Jeff be our listing agent. He was knowledgeable, knew the market well, and was a tremendous advocate for us. We certainly made the right decision. I have recommended him to others who have had the pleasure of working with him as well, and would most certainly have him represent me again. A man of integrity - exactly the person we wanted working for us.

    • Jeff was fantastic in helping us purchase our house. He was patient with us for the years that we waffled on whether to move, yet when we needed him to be on the ball, he was all in. I would highly recommend Jeff.

      - Steve Taylor
    • Working with Jeff made the task of buying our first house in California a breeze. At no stage did we feel that any question that we might have (and we had a few) was a problem. He found us a house that suits our family to a 't' and negotiated a price that met our budget. His warm and caring nature made the process, from the start until the final signing, relatively stress-free. We will be using him again!

      - Gretchen Schubeck
    • Jeff is fantastic. He's a straight shooter who is incredibly easy to work with. His knowledge of the market and pricing was spot-on. He was extremely proactive to find options that fit our list of desires. He was very accommodating of our work schedules and didn't show us properties that were off the mark. He has a fantastic network of professionals to help facilitate closing the deal. Plus, he's fun to work with!

      - Bob Ankrum
    • Jeff stuck with us while we tried to buy a home during a time when the housing market was tough for first-time home buyers. It took some time, but we found the perfect home. He's knowledgeable and has a lot of experience. We were told by the listing agent that working with Jeff was a lot of the reason we got the home. He is well known and trusted in the local real estate community.

      - Anissa Amadea
    • "Jeff Johnston is absolutely the BEST Agent you could ask for. Professional, attentive, knowledgeable, dedicated, detailed, and responds in a timely manner. He cares and wants you to be truly happy in the home you purchase. We are so grateful to have worked with him."

      - Deb and Chris Fogelman, Danville
    • "Jeff is a star. We are so glad that we went with him for our real estate needs. He is absolutely awesome, incredibly patient and resilient! We have 2 little kids and working around their schedules and moods is not easy, but Jeff made our house hunt a breeze. He knew exactly what we wanted, he took time to learn our habits and needs. 2 weeks later, we landed our dream home! We just moved in and are absolutely over the moon. Thank you Jeff!"

      - Sharadha Venkethasubramanian, Pleasanton
    • "My husband and I were looking for a house for about 9 months, and we were not finding what we envisioned as our first house. At the end of that time frame, we were lucky to find Jeff Johnston. He was very attentive to our needs, and he was able to find a great property for us. We thank you Jeff for your dedication, your honesty, and your expertise throughout the process. Jeff knew what we were looking for and helped us find the perfect house!"
