Agent Testimonials
“John was awesome to work with. We faced a very challenging market, storm damage, and a government shut down during the time my home was on the market. I also no longer lived in the area. John always came through for me when I needed references for contractors or someone to check on the house. He and his partner Chad got me across the finish line at a good price. I am very grateful.”
“John and Chad were great to work with. They were very friendly,knowledgeable and kept the process moving forward. We would definitely use Chad and John again and recommend them to family and friends. The house sold quickly ! Thanks again.”
“Chad sold our house very quickly at full asking price! They helped us hire the right team of handyman, lawn care and landscaping professionals. They helped us navigate a new roof, inspections and even radon abatement as we live halfway across the country. Chad made this a great experience with open communication and fun positive attitude. Our situation had multiple moving parts and they made it seem easy! They did a fantastic job and I highly recommend!”
“John is a great guy. Helped me buy my first house and gave good advice along the way”
“Through thick and thin, John stuck with us and kept a positive attitude until we could close on the house. Thank you, John :)”
“John was great to work with both for the purchase of our home and the sale of it only 2 years later. He is practical, transparent and has the expertise and community connections you want for real estate needs in southern Illinois. Our experience with him was fantastic and he was patient with questions, with our unique timing needs for the process due to military orders and in helping us with resources for repairs after unexpected tornado/storm damage just before we put our home on the market. John is great!!”
“John is an outstanding realtor who was extremely helpful in providing an appropriate selling price, recommending improvements prior to showings and arranging for showing appointments appropriate to our schedules. We had to leave town before the final sale and he was instrumental in dealing with requests by the buyers concerning getting rid of appliances they didn’t want. He is friendly, straightforward and reassuring for the concerns we had during the negotiations over repairs prior to closing.”

He knows the real estate business very well, and it is evident that he is very respected and valued in his field. We were very, very happy with John and Berkshire Hathaway. We’d recommend him/them to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.”

“John was great to work with. Going into the sale, John was very upfront about the process and really put my mind as ease. While we lived out of state, he was able to accommodate to our needs from working with our former property manager all the way to the closing. He made for a quick and easy (for me and my family) experience, and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to sell their home. Thank you and I appreciate everything you did for us!”
“This is the second time we have worked with John. He is an excellent real estate professional that does all the work necessary to make the selling experience as easy and pleasant as it can be. Highly recommend him for any of your real estate needs.”
“John Grissom was exactly the type of agent we were looking for to sell our home. He presented a marketing strategy that reflected his expertise and understanding of the local real estate market, and generated multiple offers within the first ten days of listing our property. John and his team exhibited the highest levels of professionalism, integrity, attention to detail, and responsiveness throughout the home sale process, and the overall experience could not have been better. I would not hesitate to recommend John and his team to anyone that expects and appreciates the very best in real estate service excellence!”

“John was great to work with! Made the selling process easy and was very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!”
“John was friendly and helpful. I was just disappointed that he didn't come to the final walk through or the closing. I understand that 'life' happens but there was no mention of him not being there until the day of. He should have known ahead of time regarding his prior commitment and we could have rescheduled.”
“Professional with clear communication skills. Invaluable.”
“Mr. Grissom was outstanding throughout this process as he was when we bought the home in 2019. We wish that he could be our advocate everywhere the Air Force moves us, however, if we ever get placed back into the area, we will definitely reach out to him again. John's expertise and kindness made an overly stressful process easy and clear. He was always available and easy to contact for questions or concerns and was down to earth on every answer. Unlike our experience moving to our current location, John always was willing to answer questions, go the extra mile for us and he never treated our family like we were just a customer or a paycheck. I will highly recommend John to any of my associates moving to that area.”
“John is the absolute best in his field. Not only is he a great realtor but he is also a great person and that shows. His care for people is what really puts him over the top. We would have him sell our house in CA as well if he could! James & Cody Bouck”
