Paige Harvey

John went over and above for us.

Buying a house when you are a military member who's retiring is already a challenge but having to do it when you aren't in the state is something else. John did all the things and some. We would not have gotten this done without him. There is no other realtor or realtor company I would recommend other than John or Long Realty. Thank You!!

Phillip & Myranda Velez

Working with John and Sylvia was truly an honor, and we felt taken care of the whole time.

Going through the first-time home buyer experience with them both cleared any anxiety or fear we had, and they made all of the jargon and confusing paperwork so easy to understanding. We ended up going with a new build, and John and Sylvia went through every stage of the process with us like family. From walking through the new build on multiple occasions to inspect the structure when it was just bear bones, to going page by page with us on when it came to sign all the paperwork, they were there. They even helped us get moving boxes and recycle our boxes to another family after we moved in, and we get warm holiday greetings from them, several years later. There's no one quite like John and Sylvia, and we'd recommend them to anyone and everyone!

They made us feel welcomed as family even before we ever arrived into town. They gave us first class service, superior support, and their transparency and attention to detail was critical as we navigated the home buying process. Their professionalism set our minds at ease which allowed us to handle all other business to move into town because of the comfort we had that they would represent and take care of our best interests. We are forever in gratitude to Team Olberding for helping us find our beautiful home.

Fantastic team and very knowledgeable and helpful for a first time home buyer.

They went over everything in detail as much as I needed and I am very very impressed and thankful with their work.

David McGee

We bought our home last year while stationed in Germany.

Despite our time zone differences, John and Sylvia were able to communicate with us and help us be competitive during what seemed like an impossible time to find a home. I was able to move my family to an excellent school district and have peace of mind while I transitioned out of military service. I just received a Christmas card from them a year later, and they are still very responsive to any questions. They are the best, and that's why I refer everyone I know to them that is looking for a home.

John and Sylvia, were great and helped me immensely as I navigated a purchase from out of state before I moved to Tucson.

John made the process smooth and easy providing coordination for inspections and stepped in for me when I could not be there in person. I appreciate all of the above and beyond help I received from this team!

Kenneth Blakeney

The Olberding Team is hands down the standard for Real Estate in the Tucson Metro Area.

John & Sylvia have assisted us with four real estate transactions (two purchases and two sales) and we would not even consider another agent represeting us with our buyers. During a time where the real estate market can be considered volatile, John and Syvlia provided sound advice and every step was given careful consideration and due diligence. Their straight forward candor and vast knowledge of real estate transactions, preparation of the home for market, and overall commitment only strenghtened our confidence in their assistance. The Oberding Team deserves much credit and accolades for their efforts, which I believe stretches well beyond that of their peers in their profession.

George Poppe

This was the third house John and Sylvia have sold for us and we are very pleased with all three transaction, quick sales from listing to final closing.

They are always a phone call way ready to answer questions regarding the transaction, ready to assist. We would strongly recommend the team of John and Sylvia Olberding for all your real-estate transactions.

Ray & Arthur Bustamante

Outstanding!

John & Sylvia treated us like family and took care of us, from the initial inquiry through the closing and beyond. I couldn't recommend them stronger!

Brian & Sommer Noethlich

We had an excellent experience working with John and Sylvia throughout the sale of our home.

They were meticulous and thorough, paying close attention to every detail and making sure nothing was overlooked. Their marketing was outstanding, especially the professional photos, which showcased our home beautifully and helped create great advertising. They were also readily available by phone whenever we had questions or needed guidance, making the entire process smooth. Perhaps tempted, they never "dipped their toes in the pool" :) They were fully committed every step of the way. We highly recommend John and Sylvia to anyone looking for knowledgeable, responsive, and dedicated real estate professionals.

Anthony & Hilda Szwast

John and Sylvia went above and beyond to help us through the sale of our house.

"John was great! It was hard to fufill my wants with a big family, myself and 6 children, the area I wanted and the price, but John did it. Not only did he work hard to find something appropriate for us he was honest and thoughtful when it came to looking at every house. I came to rely on him in the end when I made the decision to buy. I was also a first time homebuyer and he helped point me in the right direction for everything I needed. He was able to negotiate wonderfully in the end and I could not be happier. If you want someone to for you, for your happiness it is John. I give him 10 stars he is the best you can get!"

"John is amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of buying & selling homes. When he did the initial walk thru of the house, he noticed numerous details that we would have otherwise ignored. He was outstanding in his communication about any & everything and in a timely manner. He kept us abreast of any & all issues. He is laid back and an all around nice guy. We highly recommend him to service your home buying/selling needs."

"We met John Olberding during an open house taking place in our neighborhood. John was very respectful of our interest in purchasing a new home, however, were just looking at the time we met with John. None the less, that did not change John's enthusiasm in helping us view the house he was showing. Forward one year and we are now serious about finding a new home which we did find a beautiful home in the perfect location for our needs. Art and I sat down to discuss how to go about selling our home. As it turned out, John continued to send us monthly emails regarding sales in our area. We looked at each other and immediately thought back to the pleasant visit we had with John the previous year. We called John, he came out to hour home, provided us with a professional presentation. He gave us great feedback on how to quickly sell our home. Great feedback on some minor upgrades, market pricing and do's and don't as a seller. Well it worked because in three days the home sold!!!!!!!!!!!!!! John thank you for your Military Service and thank your great personality, attention to detail but most of all for being such a nice person to work with. If you had 10 stars in the rating scale, we would definitely give you 10's!"

"I recommended John to a friend to sell their home. Often you put your reputation on the line when you recommend someone that you have had limited experience with in real estate transactions ( I had meet John when he was selling another house in my neighborhood and was impressed with his attention to details). My instincts serve me well as John executed the whole real estate process from start to finish with professionalism and ease. A true testament to his skills is when the house sold within two hours of being listed and the first buyers who saw the property purchased it at full asking price! I also appreciate that John is a retire U.S.A.F. veteran and dedicated not in only serving his country but those who are need of a proven professional. Many thanks John for proving me right and getting the job done with great success!"
