John sold our home within 3 months, after having it on the market for several years with another agent. He brought a level of enthusiasm and perseverance that went beyond our expectations. It felt as if we were his only clients, addressing our questions and concerns within minutes of our texting or calling. We were able to list and sell our home remotely, through John's guidance, as we were not in Maine at the time. It felt as if he was right next door, offering a personal touch to the often onerous business of selling a home. John worked with us in developing a plan to show our house in the best possible way: a spectacular virtual tour that potential buyers could view anywhere. He promoted our home on social media and in written literature (agency brochure, newspapers, etc.) Best of all, John was always very positive and communicative. He checked in with us frequently, asking how we were doing or letting us know about an upcoming viewing. We had more people look at our home in the 3 months we had listed with John than in the 4 years our home was on the market with the previous realtor. John Bettis is a talented agent who brings professionalism, skills, and a great personality to anyone listing or buying a home.

We have known John for several years, and felt comfortable giving him our business. As we expected, he was very diligent with all aspects of the property sale. He navigated through several deed issues, and selected professionals to do the pre-sale interior photos and exterior drone footage. Highly recommend him to future real estate clients.

John Bettis facilitated our purchase of a home in Milbridge. He was honest to a fault, straightforward, energetic, and responsive to the things that needed to be done. He was unfailingly available. He managed the relationship between us and the sellers with great sensitivity, protecting both our interests. He made knowledge of resources available, which was helpful to us in evaluating the house and the supports that were necessary in purchasing it.

John was our agent in the purchase of a small cottage and land in Harrington. John has extraordinary communication skills which, coupled with excellent follow up, makes for a professional not found often in the real estate world. We purchased the property for use by us and our family, but also to rent occasionally to cover costs. Having never used VRBO, John used his existing skills to completely set up our account and get us ready to go. If you want a real estate agent who has a great attitude, always has a smile, and is most willing to go the extra mile; John is your guy.

I recently purchased a new home and was represented by John Bettis. John is truly a professional realtor. His level of care for his clients is exemplary. He goes out of his way to address his clients' needs and personalizes his approach to everything he does. He is responsive and a great communicator. I highly recommend John Bettis as your real estate professional.

In twelve real estate purchases or sales over the years, with all the various real estate agents we've dealt with, John would be our first choice for any future transaction. He did what any solid agent would do: be available at any time, including weekends and evenings; competently handle all the paperwork; give advice when asked. But he sets himself apart when it comes to the details. He dug through old city records to find what was filed regarding something relatively minor we were concerned with, which we didn't ask him to do or even consider as an option. He was constantly anticipating potential problems so that we could resolve them early, whether it was zoning, flood insurance, or lending hurdles. When unavoidable issues did come up, he gave great solutions and was willing to work through novel ideas with the other parties. Overall, we were very impressed with his ability to strike the right balance between being involved and giving guidance but still always with the goal of making sure we ended up with the right property (and not just getting the purchase done and over).

We first met John online and later by phone from more than a thousand miles away when we were looking to buy a home in Maine. Being extremely knowledgeable about the state he guided us through the various locations and, at the same time, was keen to learn about us and identify our priorities in order to help guide our search and find the right house for our family. With his expert help we could compile a list of suitable properties to view. John went out of his way to set up showings when we finally visited the area. His input and local expertise was invaluable and he ultimately helped us negotiate a favorable transaction on our house. When we encountered any problems while out of state such as scheduling appraisals and coastal insurance John took everything in his stride, recommending people and alternatives, negotiating extensions and worked with our bank and insurance provider. He reassured us, calmly resolved every issue and kept us informed throughout the entire process. With John’s help we experienced one of our least stressful property transactions ever and were able to purchase a wonderful home. He is a consummate professional, kind, knowledgeable and always willing to go the extra mile. We wholeheartedly recommend using John as your agent!
