My Reviews

We chose John Ferguson to be our real estate agent when we decided to sell our St. Petersburg home. We had a waterfront home in Broadwater which we had updated recently, but a few projects remained. We asked John’s advice regarding appropriate improvements to make before we put the home on the market. Many people resist putting resources into a house only to turn around and sell it, but John felt that we would make it up in price. As it turned out, he was correct. The house looked terrific when we put it up for sale, and we began receiving offers within the first week. John helped us through offers and negotiations, and in the end, we were very happy with the price we received. The closing went smoothly and was even finished early. We absolutely recommend John to assist you with your real estate needs.

“John helped me sell a house as part of settling a somewhat complicated estate. John was patient with me, the lawyers, and court system; getting contracts signed and returned from out of state; soothing nerves; and calming frustrations. I trust him implicitly. I have recommended him to others and will continue to do so.”

“John was very impressive. From finding the right price to offer the property at to figuring out the few little things that improved the showing to finding buyers. He comes off as very credible, earnest and knowledgeable person which is key in dealing with clients and trying to get top dollar for your property. He took care of many details which made this remote transaction run smoothly. But most of all he got results. He listed at a price we both agreed was aggressive and then brought in a buyer at full asking price. He worked with the appraiser to ensure awareness of appropriate comparable sales, was involved in accessing the buyers financials and took care of every interaction with the title company. Really what more could you ask?”

We bought a new home in California and wanted to move fast. We called John and he made a few recommendations to help with the sale. John had us a full price offer before the home ever went in the MLS. That one fell through, but he had us another offer within a week. John was responsive, professional and fully engaged to make sure the sale went smoothly. Thanks John!

I highly recommend John as he was exceptional in all phases of the sale; preparing the house for the market, pricing, listing, and selling.

“Our journey with John started when we were vacationing here from Virginia two years ago in St. Pete Beach. We drove through the Broadwater neighborhood and saw a listing that John had. We contacted the listing, listened to the details, and hang up the phone. The phone begins to ring and it is John Ferguson. That is how we discovered this magnificent real estate agent. John has been invaluable in guiding us through not one but three contracts and finally sealing the deal. He has an abundant of knowledge with the foreclosure process as well as a short sale. John was top notch with knowing the local market as well as comparable’s. Although the processes such as writing the contracts, inspections, and negotiations were all very stressful for us John was always there to reassure us that everything would work out. John reached out and introduced us to the community making our adjustment to this new area seamless. John also did not stop at being a real estate agent, but also provided numerou…

“John Ferguson did an outstanding job in helping us find the perfect home. He was not only extremely knowledgeable of the area, but in tune with our needs as first-time home buyers. He was always readily available; and was diligent, patient and informative throughout the process. He worked tirelessly to ensure we found a home that met our needs, within our budget. I highly recommend John, and will definitely use him in the future.”
David M. St. Petersburg FL
“John was so diligent in finding us our perfect home. Being new to the area, he continually searched for the criteria we were looking for and through showing us numerous homes in many different areas, narrowed it down to exactly what and where we wanted. Through his diligent searches, he found us the perfect home within hours of it being listed. His expertise in the negotiation process and his good relationship with the other realtors within the community, he saved is a considerable amount of money on the sales price. I couldn’t have asked for a better home buying experience and would highly recommend John to anyone looking to purchase a home. “
M.H. Saint Petersburg FL
“We considered it a pleasure to work with John Ferguson in the selling of our home. He was professional, always kept us informed and was very proactive in showing our home. We would highly recommend him to anyone selling or looking for a home.”
L. and J. C. Saint Petersburg FL
When we moved to town, two friends told us that we had to talk with John—they had both bought a house with him. Several months later, here we are—closed and moving in! We were tough customers, and always had a toddler in tow; John was never anything less than gracious, professional, patient, and  knowledgeable. He kept us organized and on track during the whole process—no small feat for our family. Above all, he got to know us and what we REALLY needed, and in a market with not a lot of options, we found our dream house at the right price. Through it all, John had a great sense of humor, something that made the search pleasant, and he has a solution for everything. I mean, everything. We can’t recommend him highly enough—we love John!!!!!!

Thank you for the fantastic job you did helping us find our home. As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions and concerns. We appreciate how available and patient you were throughout the entire process. Your experience was invaluable as you pointed out all the many things to consider when evaluating houses, negotiating with the seller, financing, and closing. You were there at every step, and we could not be happier with our purchase and the experience working with you. You will be the first person we call when we look to purchase another property or sell our home.
