Honest, hardworking and Personable

From the first contact with John and his team we have felt as though we were their top priority. His skills and knowledge were excellent, but it was his honest and genuine nature that sold it for us. John had really open and honest communication throughout the selling process and helped us to achieve an excellent sale price. John has Also gone out of his way on numerous occasions to help us find our New family home. We have been made to feel like friends and part of the team and I would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a agent to give John a call.

Tenacity and diplomacy by the bucket load

After some testing times with a buyer who was ....emmm, let's just say from my point of view.... very indecisive, and cost us valuable time and legal wrangling he battled on against a difficult timeline and got the sale / price I needed. Kept me informed throughout and was willing to try new ideas for viewings / times etc.

Honest, positive and highly communicative

I trusted John with the sale of our parents' home; having spoken to some other agents first, what I liked about John was that I found him honest and approachable, friendly and well-motivated. There was no 'spin' and I trusted him; he understood the emotional impact of selling the house after its being our home for such a long time. He was very communicative with regular updates from him via email, text and personal calls, as well as weekly detailed reports from his agency. Plus, he helped us sell our family home - not an easy task, given that the garden had become neglected. Having John in our corner was a good experience, and I am very grateful for his hard work.

Understanding & Diplomatic

John from Thornton Realty was easy to communicate with during our recent purchase of a small acreage property. As this was a deceased estate, John was able to speak on behalf of the vendors in a sensitive and tactful manner. John was able to be diplomatic in his approach, from a buyers perspective, as he worked both for his vendors dealing with a sensitive emotional sale of a deceased estate but also enabled us as buyers to reach our property goals. Thanks again John, you wear your heart on your sleeve. We recommend John for anyone looking to purchase property in the Hunter Valley area.

A pleasure to deal with

John at Thornton Realty has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. Right from our initial meeting through to the sold sign going up we knew we had made the right choice for the sale of our home. John's knowledge of the market is outstanding and his communication with us throughout the short time our home has been on the market has been faultless. He is a very professional and likeable agent and we would certainly recommend John to anyone wishing to sell or buy a property.

He made it easy!!

We chose John to sell our house because he was the only agent who made me feel he was a professional from the moment we met him. He arrived prepared with lots of information on the property market in the area for similar properties to ours, gave a realistic valuation of the house based on what had been happening with the market and not just some figure he pulled out of thin air like some other agents seemed to. The house sold very quickly and for more than we expected as John already had a client base that were serious about buying. 5 stars to John he made it easy, hassle free and always kept us informed as to what was happening you wont find a better agent!!
