Seller Testimonials

"Two thumbs up for John Tellesbo! John is unmistakably a cut above his peers when it comes to listing, marketing and selling real estate in the greater Seattle and East Side area. Working with John gave me the sense that he and his competitors might be in completely businesses! His enhanced, all-inclusive marketing plan was outstanding in comparison to other agents I have worked with in the past (which is about 30 or more). In addition, I have never seen an agent work harder or invest more time and money in his listings than John. He stays on top of his game each day, and notified me each time there was a change in market conditions. John was always honest and direct, yet remained highly professional and diplomatic at all times. I never once doubted that John had my best interests in mind. You will not find a more informed, energetic, professional or committed agent than John. I highly recommend John Tellesbo for all your real estate needs."

"Willa and I would like to express our sincere appreciation to you and your entire organization at Windermere for the efforts on the sale of our property in the Magnolia district. As you recall we attempted a sale for sale by owner for five weeks without success. During that time you approached us about doing a market survey on comparable property in the area. Shortly thereafter we received an impressive document detailing several homes, location, type, assessed value asking and closing prices. After receipt of this information and a couple of meetings with John we decided to list with him due to his professional approach and excellent communication skills. Upon listing we met to discuss marketing strategy and we asked for recommendations on making the house more presentable to prospective buyers. A lengthy discussion was held on pricing, a crucial element in any sale. Again, John’s assistance put us in a price range of maximum exposure. After only one week on the market we had an offer, we met with the buyer’s representative and John was there to represent our interests and assist us throughout the negotiations, another crucial element necessary to maximize selling price while preserving the prospective buyer. All the elements of the sale were very professionally planned, communicated and executed. We are completely satisfied with all aspects of the sale and would sincerely recommend John Tellesbo and Windermere to anyone who has a requirement for these services. Again, thanks for a job well done."

"I expected a lot of John. He not only met, but exceeded my high expectations. A true pro. John’s efforts alone created a competition among buyers. My home sold for $25,000 over asking price"

Brian

"John provided wonderful info as to how to price the home. Gave suggestions as to what to do to the home and what was not needed and how to make it presentable without a lot of extra work, time and money. He was right on the mark as it sold within a week. I was amazed!! We picked John because of his great presentation, his knowledge of the neighborhood and info he had available. I live out of town and he went above and beyond his duties several times to get the job done. It was very much appreciated!!"

Jan

"Our neighbors were amazed at how quickly and efficiently everything was done. We felt John Tellesbo became a friend and we hope to meet him again. Mr. Tellesbo is extremely businesslike, in a gentle manner, which helped selling the home we cherished for 48 years! Thank you for doing so much."

Leo and Adeline

"John was committed to providing us the best possible service from the beginning (assessing our home’s value) to closing the deal (even when we were out of town). He was always available and worked hard to make things happen for us. We were lucky to find him and will recommend him to others. A great agent!"

Tim and Cathy

"The service that I got with dealing with John Tellesbo was excellent! He has a very pleasant personality and superb marketing skills that sold my home in spite of it being on the market for years with other agents!"

Tom and Mary

"John Tellesbo did an excellent job for us and we would have no hesitation in referring him. He is an excellent communicator and a very thorough agent! When our first offer fell through, John had three more immediately. He was instrumental in getting us "SOLD" above the listed price only three weeks after the house was listed, despite it being tied up for ten days after the initial offer. Fabulous job!"

Roger
