When other realtors might have given up on us, John never wavered. I met John when he was hosting an open house early in 2010. At the time we were living in Chicago but looking to move back to the Walnut Creek area after an absence of several years. Over the ensuing 19 months John answered our every query, set up numerous itineraries for us to visit properties, and looked under every rock to find us just the right property from Walnut Creek all the way to Pleasanton. He helped us zero in on a neighborhood we adore, and write offers on 5 different properties, including a couple of tricky bank sale properties. When other realtors might have given up on us, John never wavered. Always helpful, patient, thoughtful, and responsive, John eventually found the right property for us. The proof is in the pudding. Recently our house appraised 50K higher than what we paid for it only 16 months before. It's hard for me to imagine that anyone could have given us better advice, better service, or a better outcome than John Bennison did. If you are looking for a great realtor in Walnut Creek, I recommend that you give John a call.
