"Working with Jon was an absolute pleasure! From the very start to the end, he was professional, knowledgeable, and always had our best interests in mind. His thorough understanding of the market, combined with his excellent communication skills, made the entire buying/selling process seamless and stress-free. Jon made himself available to answer questions and provided great advice that helped us make informed decisions. If you're looking for a real estate agent who is trustworthy, responsive, and genuinely cares about his clients, I highly recommend Jon. I couldn’t be happier with my experience!

"Jon is a lovely person. He is not high pressure and slick. He is honest and approachable. And, he is an excellent real estate broker. Jon listed our co-op apartment with a lot of integrity. He was honest about the price point and he was always available. We very much appreciated his direct yet kind approach to us and any potential buyer. Our apartment sold within a month and Jon handled everything from staging to photographing, and always respectful of showing times. He is a breath of fresh air to the profession. We highly recommend him."

"We used Jon for selling our place and then buying our next place. He was great on both sides of the transaction. For selling, he was able to list and sell quickly while also getting us over our list-price. For buying, he helped us navigate several offers, always working in our best interest and never forcing us to entertain areas or deals we didn't like. He encouraged us to expand our areas, and had great strategy to navigate a crazy market. In the end, we got a perfect place, for a great deal."

"My Wife and I both love working with Jon. He's very down to earth and helped us through a big life step in selling our apartment and the purchase of a new property in Brooklyn. He was by our side the whole way and always had our best interests in mind. He is very experienced and offers great advice and we would recommend him to anyone out there looking for a genuine professional and straightforward agent."

"My wife and I have bought and sold 5 luxury properties in Marin County, Calif, Woodstock, NY over the years and then turned to Jon to find a suitable 2 bd/ba in Manhattan. Jon patiently took us through dozens of apartments over almost a year, explaining the unique aspects, benefits and tradeoffs of the unique NY market and neighborhoods. We got the best value for money and are very happy with every aspect of the transaction. I highly recommend Jon Varnedoe for any real estate needs in NYC."

"I appreciated that - unlike a previous broker - his expectations for the sale were realistic and, sure enough, our accepted offer was spot-on in terms of what he estimated the unit would finally sell for.
I believe his knowledge of the East Village and expertise in the market make him one of the best brokers out there. And I adore Jon's mix of professionalism and friendly personality - he always keeps the process from being overwhelming with his organized and trustworthy nature.
To this day I continue to recommend Jon to friends who are either looking to buy or sell in NYC and though it's been almost three years since I sold my three-bedroom, 6th-floor walk-up, we still keep an active dialogue about one day selling my current apartment... when the time is right!

"I have worked with many real estate agents in the past and never have I worked with one more competent, knowledgable or professional than Jon Varnedoe. Jon sold our apartment in record time during a difficult market because he held numerous open houses and followed up with every potential buyer. Most importantly in a deal that turned out to be challenging to say the least, Jon kept on top of all of the details and never ever lost his sense of humor. He saw the deal through to the end and was always responsive to my numerous e-mails and calls even when he was officially off-duty. I give Jon Varnedoe my highest recommendation and would encourage any potential seller or buyer to engage him as your agent. "

"As a recent seller of my apartment, Jon provided excellent guidance and knowledge which enabled me to make intelligent decisions: What I listed my place at, how to negotiate offers and timing. I am tremendously impressed by his professionalism and good character. I recommend Jon highly and with no hesitation. "

"Jon sold our West Village apartment on Charles St. Jon was always warm and personable, and a consummate professional. I had owned the apartment for 20+ years, and it was a challenging transition emotionally. John could read the situation well, and always knew how to put us at ease as we prepared for showings. He put together a lovely portfolio for the apartment and was able to find us a wonderful buyer at a good price within a reasonable time. He kept us well informed throughout the process. I was really happy to have worked with him, and would certainly do so again, although we are now happily ensconced seaside in North Carolina."
