Testimonials
As first time home buyers, John Handschuh was a blessing. Recommended to us by a co-worker, we could not have hoped for any better service. Or first meeting was scheduled very quickly. No need to wait. John worked around our schedule. We expected our initial meeting to be a quick get to know you session. I expected for John to ask what our interests were and want to get to work showing houses as soon as possible. Well, as first timers, there was a lot we did not know. He made us feel very comfortable while explaining everything from commonly used terms, to what his responsibilities were, to the intricacies of the agreement of sale. Now that we have purchased our home and these things seem so simple, I can only imagine how tedious this must have been to John. But the funny thing is, he actually seemed to enjoy educating us. Mr. Handschuh never made us feel rushed; just completely comfortable all the time.
When we went to look at houses (again on our schedule), we were so prepared for what to expect, that we only needed to go looking once. We bought the fourth house we walked into and could not be happier. Now, we have to credit John for that as well. This is why: Prior to going out, my wife and I decided that our first time looking was for information gathering purposes only. When we told that to John at the beginning of the trip, he took it in stride. Then came the fourth house. We loved it, but we felt, it is only our first day...no way are we buying it. It is hard to describe how we came to buy the house. John only made points...as if he was sitting on a fence with us (with absolutely no care what the decision was) pointing out both positives and negatives. He made the decision to bid on that house so clear! But the thing was we never felt pushed or forced into making the bid. We truly felt that it was our decision. Looking back, had we not made that bid, we would still be upset about it.
Then came the negotiation part... We made what we believe was (and still believe was) a very good offer. We went over all details before making the offer and it fit perfectly. What no one can predict is who you will be negotiating with. Sparing the details, negotiations took a while. At no point was John pushy. He gave opinions when asked and was awesome at keeping us on point. Buying a home is in part an emotional decision. John excels at understanding that, while still maintaining the ability to say what needs to be said. I know, if not for him on that day, we would never have been able get the deal done. And the funny thing is, we got the deal that we wanted in the end anyway.
Leading up to the settlement process we didn't really have to do a thing. He made sure things got done that we didn't even know needed to be done. He kept us in the loop at all times; we made all the decisions, but John did all the leg work. It almost felt like we were taking advantage of him. Settlement went as well as could be expected considering the person we were buying the home from. John made sure that things kept moving along professionally and the perception was clearly that he was the man holding the cards. The seller's realtor pretty much did whatever John asked/recommended. Had this been the end of our partnership with John Handschuh, we would have been 100% satisfied. No Questions Asked.
This was not the end of our dealings. After owning the home for 2 weeks, we discovered an issue that could not have been found during the inspection process. Again sparing details, it was well hidden by the seller and we were fortunate enough to find it when we did. Not knowing where to begin, we called John just to ask for a bit of advice. John jumped at the chance to help us again. Our dealings were done, he had been paid (and deservedly so I may add), and had nothing left to "gain" from us. But that is what makes John Handschuh so good at this. He is just a natural, genuine, "likes to help", person. Long story short, the problem is corrected. He knew exactly what to do. It took about 2 weeks to get the problem solved, but would have taken much longer without John. He checked up every single day to see where we stood, and even made a lot of calls on our behalf. Again...this was after we bought our home.
So is summary, here is the advice we have for anyone considering John Handschuh: Take everything he says at face value. There are no hidden meanings with this guy. When he says that he will do something, don't give it another thought. He will do it. When he says is cell phone is never off...it is never off. He never said how honest he was, how great his integrity was, or how good he was at this... He never had too. It was always apparent. If you are looking for someone to agree with everything you say and tell you how great you are all the time, John is not for you. That personality type was who represented the person we bought the house from. Trust me; you want John representing you in that situation, not the other way around. Simply put, we could not have asked for a better person to help us. I should say "better realtor", but John Handschuh is so much more then that.

John,
Nick and I can't thank you enough for everything you did to help us find our home. We have been very busy painting, installing new rugs, and moving in. It is really coming a long. We could not have done this without you ! We are so excited to finally start our lives together and you helped finding our perfect place.
Thanks for everything
Lauren and Nick

Dear John
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know what a pleasure it was doing business with you. You managed to streamline both the buying and selling process, from start to finish and your expertise in negotiating proved to be a vital asset in this transaction. We certainly wouldn't be where we are today without you, we love our new home it is exactly what we were looking for!!
As you know we have bought and sold several homes and never before have we felt like someone was actually watching out for our best interests. Your professional approach and attention to detail got the job done. We truly appreciate how accessible you made yourself, both during and after business hours. It was evident that money wasn't your motivating factor, instead your focus was always on what we needed. You have restored our faith in realtors!! I will be passing your name and number on to family and friends who will benefit from your years of experience. We wish you continued success and we know you'll go far in this business, you offer a rare service, personal attention.
Thank you for taking care of us!
Sincerely,
Maureen and Mark
John was amazing to work with! He truly made the entire process of buying our first home as stress-free and as easy as possible. John always either answered or quickly returned my many phone calls. He gave fabulous advice and went above and beyond by calming me down during the stressful process. We found a dream home with John and could not be happier. We would recommend John to anyone!!!
