"Popcorn" ceilings

Do "popcorn" ceilings contain asbestos? I'm hearing conflicting opinions. There is a property one of my buyers is interested in. This Reno home was built in 1975. It has that "popcorn" ceiling…Continue

- Bio
- I bring to the table twenty-plus years of exceeding my clients’ expectations. Having owned and operated two successful service-oriented businesses I know first-hand the importance of listening to my clients and identifying their needs in order to deliver the extraordinary results to which my clients are accustomed.
My successes with my former businesses result from a combination of my commitment to client service, a dynamic personality, and my formal education. A former Chicagoan, I earned my MBA, as well as my B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Illinois. My subsequent years working in the Information Technology industry have provided me with me an important edge in today's technology driven real estate business.
Bringing with me a strong sense of Midwest values and a down-to-earth work ethic, I moved to Reno with my wife, a Nurse Practitioner at Renown, to raise our energetic preschool twins and have embraced the Reno-Tahoe lifestyle.

Guy,
We want to thank you [and Donna] for selling our home. As you know, we had tried other Realtors. Quite simply, they were not as Internet savvy, internationally recognized, or helpful as Chase. You two truly made the difference. In today's buyers market, we could not have sold our home without you. There has been a void in true professionalism within the Reno Realtor community. You two, with the strength of Chase, are filling that void.
Thank you.
Doug & Judy Brown

Rob and I are so pleased with Guy's diligence and hard work. Today we finally found our dream-home. We were expecting to pay [much] more for it, but Guy worked his magic and got it for us at $416K from the developer. He saved us a lot of money considering the same model was selling for $515K on the secondary market.
Guy was so helpful through the entire process and even offered to stay with us as we signed the contract. His humorous and positive attitude will bring Chase great profits.
P.S. We'll be having a house party once we get moved in and we'd love to have you come party with us. Thanks again for all your help!

Guy spent many hours helping us find a house that was "just right" for our family. We felt that he really took a personal interest in what we were looking for, and was equally excited when we found it. Guy was extremely flexible and easy to work with. He truly made this a wonderful experience.

We strongly feel that Guy Johnson is one of the best realtors in Nevada and know he did everything in his power to get our house sold in a down real estate market. There are multiple listings in our neighborhood that have been on the market for many months without selling yet Guy sold the first and only home in our neighborhood with his hard work----Our Home!!
Guy Johnson has been extremely professional to work with and he pays attention to all the details throughout the entire process. He is a great communicator and his follow up skills were appreciated as we never felt like he wasn't getting back to us as we were constantly getting emails or phone calls with updates on our listing or potential prospects. He was also always accessible and returned our emails or phone calls promptly.
Guy held many open houses on his own time and took suggestions from us as to when we thought he should have them. This is where most of our leads came from. We also felt the difference of him being on a professional real estate team of Chase International. Guy matches the high standards Chase has for professional marketing material and high quality service. Throughout the whole process we felt Guy was completely honest and upfront even when there wasn't good news. He always was thinking of new ideas and different ways to grab attention to our home or how to attract new prospects and this worked as he successfully brought us in an offer. The first time we met with Guy we were impressed with all the research he did on our home and the status of the market in our neighborhood and surrounding area. Before we even signed with Guy we felt he was already going to bat for us!
If anyone in Northern Nevada wants to dramatically increase their chances of selling their home then you need to hire Guy Johnson! He is the best realtor we have ever worked with and we promise you won't be disappointed with his service, professionalism, or when he calls you to say your house has SOLD!
Sincerely,
Brian and Heather Brown

I am writing this letter to attest to the friendly, helpful rapport Guy Johnson immediately established with us as we were locating our new home in Reno. We "met" on his blog and I was quickly able to ascertain his knowledge from his commentary about the Reno housing market. My husband and I were also favorably impressed

“Guy, if I buy this house, will my property taxes be calculated based off my purchase price?”
This is a question I get asked quite often. And is one for which most buyers are surprised to hear the answer. What they are really asking is will their new property tax bill be lower than the property’s current tax bill. Unfortunately the answers to both questions are “No”.
Property taxes are calculated from a property’s assessed value. And while the assessed values of many…
Has the Bottom Been Reached?

Note: the following post is re-published from my other blog, the RenoRealtyBlog.
Well, at least regarding the number of Active licensed real estate agents, the bottom may have been reached. For the first time since August of 2007 the number of active licensees in Washoe County has actually risen -- with 97 additional agents joining the ranks (see tables below).
Does this mean agents feel the time is right to get back into the real…

November’s median sold price dipped slightly (less than 1%) compared to October’s median sold price. At least we didn’t witness another 7% one-month drop (as was the scenario last month).
At $218,350, Reno-Spark’s median sold price has now…
