Buyer Rating:
A friend of my parents recommended John Tierney. I consider the recommendation extended to me as a gift - a true "meant-to-be," transformative moment that led to a wonderful outcome. It was fate!
From the moment we started working together, John Tierney was extremely friendly and helpful during the house-hunting process. He quickly understood my needs and customized searches based on my requirements. When I passed on properties, even after taking me on 2-3 visits to the same property, he was very patient and resilient. He was a true professional in that way; I greatly appreciated his tolerance of my picky ways. After I'd decide against a property, he'd immediately send me new properties that were even more fine-tuned based on my expanding criteria.
As a single woman and first-time home buyer, I had no knowledge of the house-buying process. Given my lack of experience, I was a little nervous and wary about what I had to accomplish. John graciously handled it ALL for me. He used his extensive connections to get me in contact with a lender, a lawyer, the inspection company, etc. He guided me through every important step of home buying to make it a seamless, painless experience.
John Tierney was GREAT to collaborate with; my parents had joked he was like a second father to me. He is kind, compassionate, funny, and understanding. He made me laugh all the time and made light of the obstacles and challenges we faced together. What I liked most about John was his genuine, authentic personality. I trusted him; I instinctively felt he was not driven to make a sale, but instead, he was truly committed to finding the right home for me. When I officially closed on the house, John was really happy for me. That made him feel like a friend, so much more than a realtor.
I had said once to John that one of my fantasies in owning a home was sitting outside on my deck and drinking a cup of coffee, enjoying my outdoor surroundings. We visited many, many townhouses/homes in search of the ideal outside space. Now, as I write this review of John, I'm sitting on my beautiful, private deck drinking coffee. He did it. He made my dream come true. :O)
