"John really went to work for me. He SOLD my old home in 2 weeks and was patient with me as we looked for a new home. He really seems to understand the market and how to execute the whole deal. I would list with John in a heartbeat. If your considering buying or selling, John will make you very happy."
John is a very professional and thoughtful realtor! He has quickly become our family realtor and we have done several transactions with him. As a industry professional he always brings his "A" game whether it's helping me with showings, consulting on potential projects, or the phenomenal value he brings as a listing agent. I strongly recommend John Rice and his team.
John Rice is the professional realtor you want in your corner when it comes to real estate investing. His experience, extensive contacts, and resources to get you into profitable deals makes him one of the best to work with in the real estate industry. We always use John Rice.
John is an excellent realtor! He was very kind, honest, professional and thorough throughout the entire process. My house sold within 24 hours. I highly recommend John Rice if you are considering selling your home!
We have worked with John multiple times now, both buying and selling homes. We 100% recommend him and he’ll always be our go-to realtor for any future real estate needs. John is experienced in the industry and well-known and respected. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable, on top of being an all-around nice guy. He is responsive and answered all of our questions along the way. We asked John for several referrals for other services (lender, cleaner, etc.) and we were very happy with all his suggestions. John is honest and will listen to your concerns/opinions. He is never pushy, but gives great advice based on his years of experience. We are so thankful for the guidance we received from John to make our recent home buying and selling experience successful and quick! If you need a realtor, call John.
We can’t say enough good things about John. He is an awesome realtor! We bought our home with his help and just recently sold it with his help. He is highly knowledgeable about the Grand Rapids area market and his expertise and professionalism has shown through both times we worked with him...John is a wonderful communicator and a genuine person. His sincerity has been evident in his commitment to making the purchase and sale experience as seamless and informed as possible. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have worked with John and strongly recommend him without reservation!
My family and I were referred to John by my sister. ... I am not sure what we would have done without his help and guidance through both the selling and buying process...John is extremely professional, and you can tell that he loves his job and takes it very seriously. I would recommend him in a heartbeat!
John was very professional and a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable about the real estate business. All of our questions were answered that arose during our buying experience and he kept us well informed of the next steps in the process. I would recommend him to all of my friends and family as the realtor to use for any real estate transaction whether it is buying, selling or even renting a home.
It was a wonderful experience working with John. His professionalism, honesty, experience, and knowledge of the Grand Rapids market, helped us in multiple ways. John sold our home in one day, was honest about what we could expect from offers, and was spot on. As we progressed toward finding our new home, again, he was extremely knowledgeable about the neighborhoods, home values, and history of the homes. We are more than happy to say, that he helped us find our dream home within our budget! Anything I needed, he was there through emails, texts, or phone calls. He definitely put in a lot of work for us. Without a doubt, I will ask for his assistance again when the time comes. Thank you John!
We moved to the Grand Rapids area 11 years ago and John was very patient as we found our first home and made the experience absolutely seamless! When we were ready to sell and buy again we knew to reach out to John. As we remembered and appreciated, John is an absolute professional and was and advocate for our best interests at all times during this wild market. We found great value in our new home and he helped us get top dollar for our sale. Grateful to have him on our side though the whole process. You won’t be disappointed!
We chose John as our realtor...(h)e came to the listing appointment incredibly well prepared, had some great suggestions on better staging the home and followed through on every commitment. Even more important, we had a full price offer the first day on the market and ended up selling the house for about $10k above list price. I know it's easy to be pleased with and recommend a realtor when you sell above list, but John was thorough, professional, accessible and generally pleasant to be around. I would highly recommend John and his team to anyone with real estate needs.
John Rice is hands down one of the best realtors in the Grand Rapids and surrounding areas. We have utilized him as our realtor on two separate occasions, once over 10 years ago, and again over the last several months to buy/sell. He is incredibly knowledgeable and uses his expertise to help guide you in your choices throughout the realty process. He is professional, kind, has impeccable attention to detail, responsive, and clearly loves what he does. Choose John for your realty needs…he is the best of the best!
John helped us sell our house when we moved out of Grand Rapids 3 years ago and recently helped us purchase a new house when we moved back. He is very professional and knowledgeable of the area and market. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.
We just want you to know how much we appreciated your competent service in listing and selling our home, much loved for the last 26 years.
Your quiet confidence and patience were most helpful in getting to "SOLD." Doing so during the pandemic panic, at a time when you were obeying the governor's "stay at home" orders, amazed us.
You may look like the mild mannered Clark Kent, but during the pandemic, you performed like Superman!
Thank you,
"When John Rice came to us our house had already been on the market for 2 years. We had almost given up hope of selling our house. Within 3 months John brought us two offers and our house was sold. He also helped us find our new house as well. We highly recommend John, whether your house is worth a little or a lot, John Rice will give you great personal and friendly service with the utmost professionalism."
Dear John,
I wanted to take a moment and thank you both for the professional way that you handled our listing. As you know our house had been on the market for a considerable length of time with a different realtor. Once we made the decision to switch realtors, Jason and I had told ourselves that we were going to interview many different realtors so we got the one that would be right for us. You were our first and only interview that we did. Your professionalism and amazing presentation blew us away and as you know we signed with you two on the spot. At the time of the listing it was early December and we all fully agreed that we needed to hang with this listing through the tough winter months and would really look forward to something positive happening in March. Within 5 days of signing with you, we had an offer and 3 weeks later, we were sitting at a closing table....Thank you again for helping us. Please know we will be referring you to anyone that is looking for a Realtor.
Sincerely,
Purchased and sold with John, he is: Professional, an extremely good communicator, precise, and acted on our behalf 24/7. He kept us up to date on listings for purchase and preparation advice for selling our home. He was knowledgeable about neighborhoods. Photography for sale of our house was impressive. We were appreciative of the guidance regarding making offers, inspections, when to list our home, writing contracts, detailed review and presentation of offers on our home and being realistic about our purchase of new home. Great experience, Great Realtor.
I honestly can't say enough good things about John. He has helped my family buy two homes and sell one home, and each time he has been knowledgeable, responsive, respectful, and has taken care of everything that we needed. I would recommend John - and only John - to anyone looking for a realtor and I know that he will give them the same service that he gave to me
We have worked with John to sell 1 home and buy 2 homes and he is an incredible realtor! He is professional, prompt with communication, honest and patient. We had quite the list for what we were looking for and John was always available to answer questions and get us in to look at a home.
His knowledge and connections in the industry made both the buying and selling process go smoothly. We simply cannot recommend John enough!
Having moved 600 miles away before listing my place meant I needed someone who I could trust to take care of getting my home sold. John and Ashley went above and beyond. They really surprised me. They took care of the details I would have never thought of and more. The research they did before the listing was excellent, without it I would have sold my house for a lot less than what it’s worth. This was my third home and I can say that I have never
had a better experience with a realtor. Thanks for everything!
The Rice team covered every angle to assure that the sale of our home took place in a timely and efficient manner, making this a pleasant experience.They were easily accessible and able to answer any questions that arose throughout the entire process. It was a great pleasure working with them and we will work with them again.
It has been a GREAT experience working with the “Rice Team” while my wife and I were both selling our home and purchasing a new one. Great, because when working with them, they made us feel as though we were their most important clients. They were readily available when we
had questions, which there were plenty, and they were very patient with us through the entire complex process of selling/purchasing our home, taking extra time to explain and making sure that we understood all of our options.
During the sale of our old farmhouse and purchase of a new property, John Rice was a skillful professional. His positive attitude was infectious and inspiring. He possesses a knowledge of the local market and industry trends that is encyclopedic.
As a young physician, my schedule is very hectic. I am amazed at how quickly John was able to respond to my phone calls and correspondences at all times. He consistently answered any questions we had within a few hours (most often within minutes). He always made my wife and I feel like we were his only clients as he focused his attention on our sale.
Of course, there are many Realtors who may share some of those aforementioned qualities. However, the thing that sets John Rice apart is his tangible desire to share in our vision and help us realize our family’s dream. My wife and I always had the sense that from the first day we met him, John understood us and really desired to help us achieve those life-long goals.
Needless to say, I now enthusiastically refer him to all of my friends and family.
To any physicians or health-care professionals who are interested in moving their practice to our blossoming medical community in West Michigan, I urge you to contact John Rice and make him your ally too!
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Vander Lugt, MD
