John Duerler's Reviews & Ratings

Tell us about your experience with
John Duerler

    • Excellent experience topped with a personal touch "Jill is John's secret weapon - She's a lawyer, so you get the added value of a legal perspective on all issues, and she's also a fantastic home designer, organization specialist, and stress-management therapist. I wanted a frank opinion from John as to what I could do to maximize the sale value of our home. John and Jill knew exactly what was selling and advised us accordingly. We took their advice - and it really paid off. For our $25,000 investment in renovations - paint colors, landscaping, windows - we raised the sale value more than $135,000. To top it off, HGTV wanted to feature the renovated home in a "curb appeal" special! Many of the things John and Jill recommended that we do were things we would never have thought of, or things that we thought we had already adequately addressed. They know what they are doing and are true professionals."

    • John even advised me on how to prepare my house "I interviewed many brokers before and during my remodel. There were some excellent realtors, but I found that you were both the benchmark to which I compared them all. Your first visit was inspiring! You gave me some wonderful information and ideas for both the interior and exterior. Your vision turned the weakness into strengths. You were realistic, yet always positive. When it came to pricing my home, I was surprised at the figures, I was thrilled that you were able to sell for much more than I would have ever expected. I'm glad I put everything in your capable hands. It's obvious you love your work and your positive energy brought about positive results. Your Hancock Homes Realty team is a perfect complement to you! Thank you again for your inspiration, market savvy, excellent salesmanship and true professionalism....and all of it with a winning smile."

    • Johns perseverance got me the house "I have conducted quite a few real estate transactions, and John is by far the most proactive, hardest working, and most dedicated realtor that I have encountered. He and his team at Hancock Homes were models of professionalism and strove to go well above and beyond the call of duty to ensure not only that my needs were met, but that the deal progressed smoothly and closed on time. From the most routine update to the inevitable time-sensitive document at 10:30pm, every aspect was taken care of with the utmost efficiency and without question. Additionally, Hancock Homes provided me with a top-notch marketing campaign; seamlessly combining traditional marketing strategies with digital marketing tactics and Johns own, truly innovative, think-outside-the box approach to expose my listing to the broadest and most appropriate audience. Perhaps most importantly, John is a stellar advisor and a master at negotiations. To add meat to the bones of this statement, I offer up the following facts: After only a few months of targeted marketing, we nailed down a deal and the sale closed without a hitch 1 week ahead of schedule! Now, I am told, my property holds title as the 5th highest SOLD price ever in Hancock Park. Deals of this size and nature dont typically proceed quite so smoothly and I attribute the lack of drama to Johns negotiating skills and his ability to read people. In short, the end result was so much more than a successful sale; it was actually an enjoyable experience! I can say without hesitation that it is my honor to pass along my highest recommendations of John and his team at Hancock Homes Realty."

    • John is always available, no matter how small the task"After the unsuccessful attempt at selling my home, I received a call from John. John's call was one of perhaps 100 cold calls that we received. I became intrigued by him, his approach and he had been working with people I knew. I felt like I could call someone I knew and ask them, what's John like?. Everyone I spoke to said great things and thats how it started. Then John came over and I was very impressed. You have a team of people to work with, but John is always availableWe were out of town for most of the time and the fact that the team would make sure the trash bins were taken out and communicated with the gardener. They really oversaw every detail of our home and took care of us."

    • Very attentive to concerns, details, and negotiations!"John and Jill Duerler and their entire team at Hancock Homes Realty really are Neighborhood Pros! I had decided to sell my home of 26-years in Hancock Park. I had lots of questions and from my first meeting with John, I knew I was talking to someone who would listen, provide me answers, and guide me to the finish line of selling my home in a timely and professional manner. John is incredibly knowledgeable about home values in the neighborhood and we were able to communicate clearly and honestly about the assets of my home, it's desirability and define specific areas that needed some sprucing. Once I was ready to pull the trigger and put my house on the market, John explained, in detail, the plan to promote and sell my house from the first open house to the first offers. I always felt like I knew what was going on and if I ever had a question or concern, John was a text or phone call away. His team is amazing. Always reachable and always happy to help with whatever I needed from getting the house ready to show or assisting with the various inspections. Jill Duerler was terrific keeping me informed of any legal language or process involved in escrow. Jill and John are an excellent negotiating team and I thoroughly trusted their expertise. I was also grateful that they always welcomed my "two cents" when it came to financial specifics. If you really want commitment, honesty, knowledgeability, accompanied with loads of kindness and sensitivity - John Duerler and his team are your realty company."

    • I am 100 percent satisfied!!"John Duerler is a top-notch agent. He helped us purchase a home and then sold it for us at almost $50K over our asking price. All I can say is WOW! If you want top dollar for your house don't look anywhere else!"

    • John kept us calm throughout the process! "John and his office were tremendous to work with, both in selling my old home and buying my new one. John is forthright, warm, quite knowledgeable about market trends, and very skilled in the art of negotiation. He and his staff were always there to respond to my questions, look at properties, make calls on my behalf, and generally field my anxiety that came with such life altering decisions. I wouldn't have wanted to go through the process with anyone else!"

      - Your Neighbor, Gita
    • John had a tough job, but he did it! " John and his entire team at Hancock Homes Realty, were a pleasure to work with! Originally, I had listed my multi-unit home with another brokerage and it never ended up selling. This was because it was never marketed properly. From the moment John called me, he was on top of it. He explained the plan to promote and sell my house, from start to finish. He has a very professional and personable team behind him there to answer any of my questions, no matter how small. John brought me 3 offers in the 48 days the property was on the market. He started the negotiating process on our behalf and before you knew it, we were in contract! John Duerler and his team made this entire process smooth and guided me through the whole transaction. If there is one thing I would say about John Duerler and his team is that they are trustworthy and experienced, they really know how to make you feel comfortable."
