For Sellers

I have two huge passions in life- People and NASCAR Racing. I can best describe how I will get your property sold by explaining how my passions relate to the process.

People-I believe you treat people right and tell it to them how it really is no matter how uncomfortable it can be for either of us. In the end, when you know how it really is things have a way of working out for the best. I truly care about my clients.

NASCAR- in order to win you need the right team owner. (No one offers you more than Coldwell Banker,  ask me why I chose Coldwell banker or see the Marketing Comparison below.) Team Owner - Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage

The right crew chief. (I will be behind you supporting you and making sure you get the right marketing, negotiating and follow through to get the race won.) James L. Johnson

The right pit crew with the right tools. (You get an unbeatable teams of Coldwell Banker agents, nationally, regionally and locally working for you using the Internet, Print Advertising, Quality Brochures and Salesmanship.) Pit crew

A qualified driver. (You are the driver, I understand that the ultimate decisions are yours.)Driver - You my real estate customer

 Closing your real estate deal in Lake County, IL Together as a team we will work to get you the best possible price (or, in my way of thinking, to successfully cross the finish line).

Seller Tools- Tips and information foe real estate sellers

James Johnson was OUTSTANDING. I know how difficult I can be to work with, but he NEVER made me feel like I was bothering him. He went out of his way to solve problems even before I was aware there could be a problem. He listened to what was important to me, explained my choices and then followed through.

Everyone I knew said a home doesn't sell over the holiday period, well after I changed agents (12 months after my home was put on the market) James had offers right away. I honestly believe it was because of his hard work in marketing my home. Nancy Mierkiewicz
