    - Deborah Hanson | Realty ONE Group Fox | September 2022

    "John was great to work with. He walked me through every step of the way, always keeping me well informed about the market, and potential buyers. He did a great job making arrangements to prepare the house, including repairs, painting, and cleaning - and I was very happy with the results. I live in Nashville, and also have a home in Florida. I did NOT want to have to come to California to organize things - and because of his great help, I didn't need to."

    John was very responsive and thorough. He was professional, friendly, and offered support that exceeded our expectations. Well done!

    Napa Valley Is My Home

    Born and raised in Napa, I am a third generation resident. After graduating from Saint Mary's College, I returned to start a family and began a marketing career in the wine industry that lasted over 20 years. During that time, I held senior roles at some of the largest, most successful wineries in the country and was responsible for national brands as well as new product development and marketing operations.

    Dealing with the needs of sales people around the country, managing outside vendors and collaborating with internal company teams, my success was born from developing solid relationships, strong communication, and working towards a common goal. As a real estate agent, all of these skills are essential to ensuring that my clients have a pleasurable, stress-free experience when buying or selling a home.
