Trusted Probate and Real Estate Guidance in Arizona
Probate, estate property, and major real estate decisions are rarely simple. These testimonials reflect the experience clients have had working with John Ferrence through difficult transitions, out-of-state responsibilities, inherited property sales, wholesale cash transactions, traditional listings, and home purchases throughout Arizona.
“John Ferrence was my selected Real Estate agent, and so much more. My friend passed away and I was named Trustee. Problem was I lived about 400 miles away and knew I would need someone to handle preparing his home for sale. After getting deluged with probate type letters soliciting real estate services, robo calls and screener calls, I received my one and only real person Realtor call from John Ferrence. Needless to say, I was highly skeptical. John was personable, related well to my unique circumstances and put up with my extensive probing for his experience and what specifically was unique he could offer someone in my situation. Bottom line, house is sold and he didn't disappoint. I can't even fathom your typical real estate agent being as dedicated and focused as he was, not to mention the years of experience and the arsenal he had at the ready in his tool bag. He really made all things go smoothly. I am convinced; I was fortunate to make his acquaintance. Thanks again John.”

“John Ferrence and his team of professionals made everything pertaining to the Real Estate component of my Probate run like clockwork from start to finish – and everything in between. John is a clear and thorough communicator, explaining processes and procedures as well as projecting the most realistic outcomes. Being out of state, he worked as my hands & feet in Arizona to coordinate everything necessary to sell the property ‘as-is’ wholesale quickly for cash. He worked with my attorney, necessary trades, and other services to get all the personal property liquidation done seamlessly and successfully. Throughout every process, John provided his advice as a seasoned probate Realtor and business professional to integrate Probate’s unique influence and effect on a Real Estate transaction to help me confidently and calmly succeed. I highly recommend utilizing John to guide you through your specific Real Estate scenario. You will be thankful you did.”

“We are SO happy we found John to help us buy our Arizona home. He did not try to find us a home we couldn't afford, like so many other real estate people have in the past. He is a total professional and always had this client's best interest in mind. We lived on the east coast, and he was nothing short of excellent. John helped us all along the way! He was always prompt, always by our side for inspections and advice, even when we couldn't be in town. John is very honest and a pleasure to work with. We HIGHLY recommend John for your next real estate experience!!”

“I highly recommend John Ferrence because of his knowledge, experience, professionalism, and dependability. John knows the Arizona Probate process as it applies to a local Real Estate transaction and was an immense help following my brother’s passing in Arizona. I was responsible for selling his home, not an easy task since I live on the east coast. John’s knowledge and experience provided a level of assurance and peace during that stressful time. John was always available and offered advice and guidance every step of the way. John quickly located a buyer for the property, and the sale occurred smoothly. His team of professionals also helped to maximize the sale of collectables from the property, resulting in more revenue generated for the Estate. He has earned my endorsement, hands down.”

“John was very knowledgeable about all the cities we were really interested in relocating to. He was quick to answer our questions, and those questions he didn't have an answer too (which was rare), he would go out of his way to get us an answer within a respectable time. If/when we decide to move again, we will be contacting John again. He made the process of buying a home a thousand times more enjoyable. I highly recommend John as your Realtor!”

“I am a builder here in Arizona. I work with a ton of realtors here in Arizona and just had the pleasure of working with John as he was a buyer’s agent. There are a handful of realtors that have been above and beyond in every aspect. He is one of those Realtors. He was amazing and on the ball in every way. He is kind, fun, extremely responsive and quick to get anything done. I would 100% recommend him to anyone and know they would be taken care of.”

“I first met John via his phone call to me about the Probate where I was appointed as the Personal Representative for the Estate. John uniquely understood the loss I was processing as well as the fallout dealing with all of the property issues within the probate. He and his team of partners made selling the home in its current condition extremely easy, seamless, and expedient. He kept me thoroughly informed from start to finish. That successful experience prompted me to have him help me again to sell my personal home while simultaneously acquiring our new property. Now as a Trustee to an Estate, I turned again to John to apply his skills and experience to successfully list and sell my dad’s home. As a local attorney, I recognize and appreciate attention to detail and follow-through accountability. I emphatically recommend contacting John Ferrence to help you through your unique situation. His skills, talents & abilities are clearly second to none.”

“John was exceptional throughout the home buying process. He made me feel completely comfortable and I trusted him fully to have my best interests during this exciting and stressful time. John was honest, informative, and very open to my thoughts. I do not think I would have been successful purchasing a home without him and he made me feel like family during the whole process. I recommend him to everyone looking to purchase a home!”

“John gave me useful tips on what small and inexpensive things I could update to get the most bang for my investment buck. He put together a fair market analysis and worked hard to turn what I had perceived as negative features about my home into positive benefits for a new buyer. He put together info for the MLS listing that made my property stand out among the vast number of similar listings. He knew what to highlight and was incredibly easy to work with and diligent with follow-ups. My home sold in about a month and for more than twice what I paid. Regardless of what side of the offer, John works hard on behalf of his client to get the best possible deal. He does not lose focus of his client’s interest. He is a true professional, yet at the same time keeps his fantastic sense of humor. Not only will I enlist John’s help in my future real estate needs, I also recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“When it came time to sell our Arizona property, there was no other choice but John Ferrence. His candid honesty and integrity that led us to engage in a purchase, sight unseen several years ago solidified the relationship with our “Personal Realtor for Life”. He helped us stage our home for us while in Canada and promoted it to sell for top market dollar. His experience and transaction skills were vital in securing the sale. Highly recommended Advocate and Advisor.”

“After talking to several realtors, my wife and I chose John to represent us for the selling of my brother’s house through the ancillary Probate. As it turned out, it was an excellent choice. John is very personable and is clearly a seasoned realtor that brings Probate experience & certification to the table. After carefully explaining all of our options to us, we made the decision to sell the property wholesale for cash, as opposed to repairing the house and listing it on the retail market. John worked quickly and efficiently, and we were able to close in a shorter time than we thought was possible. We’re very thankful for John and give him our highest recommendation.”
