We were very happy and impressed with John Short. He was extremely professional, prompt, knowledgeable and we could reach him with questions or issues any time of day or night. He listened to what we wanted and offered assistance that really helped us. This is the first time we ever sold a home. John not only made it easy for us, he also made it fun. He's the best. We would highly recommend John to anyone wanting to sell their home.

If you had a column better than excellent, I would check that for all of the above adjectives. He not only fulfilled all of my expectations and addressed my insecurities, he actually mowed my lawn to keep the house presentable.

John Short.... what could one say about John, well, it was by far one of the best experiences when looking for homes, dealing with agents, communication at all times and during each and every step of the process. I would put John on the list as one of the " Good Guys" if there is still that belief in this business world we live in today. I know when it's time to look again, I'll only need to make one phone call.

John goes consistently above and beyond my expectations fro a realtor. When things were challenging , John fixed it. When things didn't feel right, John called and asked clarifying questions and made it right. Selling was effortless and at times even fun as John kept the pace moving. I recommend John to everyone I know for buying or selling a home. In Short...John is simply the best.

From the sale of our home to the purchase of a new one, it was a pleasure working with John. He's very personable and easy to get along with. Does everything he can to make an open house whenever you request one, which is critical in this market! I would definitely recommend John to friends and family.

John Short did a great job connecting with my wife and I and always gave us the straight and honest truth regarding the sales process. There was no sugar coating, which we appreciated. Further, John took care of ensuring that our belongings were shipped to our new residence as we had run into logistics issues with the moving company and could not be present. John took the time to ensure that the move was done professionally and right, thus allowing us to focus on our transition without having to fly back to address the issues.
Whenever John had any concerns, he would contact us immediately to share these with us and always gave us a frank assessment so that we could make an informed decision. As a result, the sales process was quick and painless on our end. I would highly recommend John Short to anyone in Snohomish County.

John Short was an absolute pleasure to work with. I work very long/random hours and John was very understanding to always find a way to meet my schedule. His communication was excellent which allowed me to relax during work, knowing my realtor was always keeping me one step ahead, giving me plenty of time to make decisions or submit needed documents. John has a great personality which helped keep me positive throughout the entire experience. He far exceeded all of my home buying expectations as a first time home buyer. Thanks John !

John is a great person and very knowledgeable, also makes me feel comfortable he is around. When there's a question, he finds and/or provides me the answers.

It took us 10 offers and viewing well over a hundred homes before finding , and getting , the one for us. Through the entire process in all of our attempts and finally succeeding John was the best person we could have hoped for to help us through it.
He worked tirelessly and would always go well above and beyond to help us in every aspect. From tracking down sellers and getting us in to see a property to making sure that our VA loan had a fair chance, he worked harder then we could have ever asked for. He was always accessible and constantly stayed in contact to keep us up to date at all times. His expertise and negotiating skills were central to us closing. After working with John for four months closing our house was bitter sweet, while we were getting the house we dreamed of we were losing someone who had become part of our life.

John was fantastic to work with. My wife and I were pummeling him with questions and communication through the listing, sale and closing process and he was responsive, knowledgeable, kind and patient with us. I highly recommend John to anyone buying or selling a home in Western Washington.
Every step of the way, John not only knew what to do, but walked us through it and explained everything and was always making sure that things went smoothly.

We had worked with John Short on buying our first home and have now sold and bought another house with him as well. John is an energetic, driven individual, and one of the most knowledgeable agents you will ever find for the Snohomish county area., especially Lake Stevens. We loved how on the ball John always is with every step of the process, always keeping us informed and on track. He listened to all of our concerns and addressed them, giving us that personal attention to detail that is hard to come by these days. If you want to ensure that you will FIND and SECURE the home of your dreams, John Short is the Realtor that can make it happen!

We bought this house with John 2 years ago and had no doubt we wanted to work with him again when we needed an agent. He is very knowledgeable about the local market and trends in real estate, trustworthy, timely and friendly.

He knew what he was doing and always came to my house to sign papers and always kept me informed as how the sale was going.

This was my second home I sold with John Short's help. I appreciate the fact that John puts so much energy and aggressiveness into every effort to get the property sold. From advice on staging, important potential customer retrospectives, nice but but not necessaries, to reminders of agreed TO DO's. I have already recommended John to friends and family, and will continue to do so. Absolutely the best.

John was fantastic to work with. He's energetic and enthusiastic about finding the right house for his clients. He got us in to see our house the same day it's price dropped into our range, which we made an offer on the next morning. He makes himself available for any and all questions. If we decide to buy again in the future, we'll be going back with John.

About John Short
To begin with, I love my career! There is never a day where I get out of bed and say, “I just don’t want to do this today.” I am fortunate enough to work in a profession where I get to be involved with people who are making the biggest investment of their lives. Whether I’m working with a first-time home buyer, someone relocating to the area for work or family reasons, or starting or adding to their investment portfolio, I love guiding my clients through this process. I take great pride in keeping my clients informed on how the process works and what to expect next. I find that by keeping everyone informed while we are going through the different stages of their home buying or selling experience, and keeping them informed of their options, my client’s stress is reduced, and they feel they have more control over this process. Nobody likes surprises and I try to avoid them at all costs.I surround myself with some of the best people in the Real Estate industry, from lending to inspections to escrow. It is important to me that my clients know they have a team that they can trust who is working in their best interest at all times. All in all, my main goal is to listen to my client’s needs, help them to maximize their goals in buying or selling a home and take them to the finish line in a smooth manner. There is nothing like giving keys to the new homeowner and experiencing the joy they have on closing day or completing the sale of a home for my sellers so that they can move on to the next chapter of their lives. I love when I get calls from new clients that say, I’m friends with a client of yours and they recommended that I call you to help me buy or sell a home. That’s what tells me I’ve done my job!
