Buyer Rating:
John is the best in Chico. He cares about his clients needs and goes above and beyond.
Seller Rating:
John is a great person. My house sold without a open house
John is wonderful and very knowledgeable.
Seller Rating:
John Wallace of Century 21 was referred to me through a commercial RE person because I was not familiar with anyone in Chico. We had a very messy deal due to my mother-in-law's situation on the property but it did happen and he was patient and responsive during this process. I would not have chosen anybody else and I'm so glad John Wallace was recommended.
Buyer Rating:
This was the second home that John Wallace helped us with within a year. Last year after we were relocated as a result of the Camp Fire, John helped us find our new home. This year we were in the market for an investment property and did not think twice about asking John to help as. As before, he was prompt and professional in our search, negotiations and closing.
Seller Rating:
John did a great job for us. He listened to what we wanted and we always felt he was working to do the very best he could for us. He is very knowledgeable. He's been doing this a long time and understands the stress buyers and sellers are under in the process. He will do a great job for you!
Buyer Rating:
Selling a home, after over twenty five years, is one of the most stressful things I have ever done. In all honesty, I was terrified! John was so knowledgeable, and extremely patient, explaining everything in terms that we could understand. He made suggestions, but never pushed us into anything. I soon learned that his advice was always spot on.
We started looking for a larger home just before the horrible fire in Paradise. Within no time at all, there was a shortage of homes. We needed to find a home with enough space for my elderly father, who was going to live with us, and each day our chances of finding a place grew slimmer. There were times that we felt so discouraged, but John never lost hope, and even though he was extremely busy, he made us feel like we were his only clients. He was kind and soft spoken, yet tough as nails on our behalf. We owe so much to him...
We have been in our home for six months now. My father has joined us and we are getting settled in. I am so thankful to John for working so hard to help us find a home.
Seller Rating:
John Wallace is the example that all real estate agents/brokers should follow. He is very professional, knowledgeable and has excellent communication with his clients every step of the way. He provides appropriate feedback and is respectful of his clients wishes. I first met John Wallace as a first time homebuyer and had such a great experience working with him that when I went to sell that same home I bought, I asked him to help me sell it and he did! I will recommend John Wallace to any family member or friend as a potential buyer or seller.
Seller Rating:
When we decided to sell, I knew exactly who to call. I had spoken to John on several occasions, through our business, and knew that he would be the perfect fit. That was a decision that proved to be spot on. After being in our home for 25 years, we had no idea where to start with the selling process, but John did. He guided us through the listing process, spent hours making sure our contract was exactly the way we wanted it, and never once pushed us to proceed until we were ready. John made suggestions and explained why that suggestion might work for us. We were not just another client. With John Wallace, you are treated as though you are his only client.
We knew that finding the right property would be difficult. We run a business out of our home and need to have space for that, and, we had just sold my dad's home in order to bring him closer to us, so that we could care for him. Unfortunately, we had no sooner started looking at replacement homes when the devastating fires in Paradise took place. John was encouraging, yet realistic, about us finding a home in the now slim market. As we put offers in on one house after another, and got outbid, time after time, John wouldn't let us lose hope.
About the time that we felt like we would never find another home, John called and told me about a new listing. It was only online for a few minutes, showing just the outside of the home, then it was taken down. It was the most beautiful house I'd ever seen, and perfect for us, but it was on hold. The house was in probate and no one knew how long the legal process could take. For three months John contacted the seller's agent, on almost a daily basis, reminding them that we were still interested. Each time he got a response, he shared it with us, good or bad, and kept us apprised of the progress, or the lack there of. He never let us give up hope. Persistence, and an awesome agent, payed off. After several months of staring at the exterior pictures of a house that already felt like ours, we were finally able to go inside. We put an offer in immediately, then waited as the lawyers and courts went through the process. It felt as though it would never end... But, with John's guidance, we ended up signing the papers on that home about two weeks ago. Every time I walk in the door, I have to smile, because we waited so long to make that house ours.
John was so much more than a real estate agent. He offered hope and encouragement, friendship, patience and never ending professionalism. For us, it was so much more than just deciding we wanted to move. I had my aging father to worry about, and a business to take into consideration; John understood that and went above and beyond what we asked of him. He was with us from the very start, through all of the difficulties and disappointments, and there to share the happiness the day we could call the house ours. I firmly believe that if we hadn't had John in our corner, we would still be looking for a home.
Seller Rating:
I learned from John Wallace what a difference sales experience and teamwork with local businesses can make. He was recommended by a trusted friend of a trusted friend and I am so glad! He has sold two properties for us now and also set up a few home tours for us. He is a good man!
Buyer Rating:
I have worked with John Wallace many times. When you work with him he makes you his top priority. He is truly an outstanding agent.
Seller Rating:
I feel that John really went above and beyond in many aspects. We don't live in Chico, and when a neighbor of the property for sale saw that someone had broken into the house, she called me and I called John and John was at the property five minutes later, went through the house, called the police, and handled the situation for us. I never would have expected that. John made sure that nothing was forgotten.
While selling a house on behalf of a 91 year old mother, shortly after the death of my 91 year old father, can not realistically be described as "easy", John certainly did everything possible to make it as easy on me and as easy on my mother as I could possibly imagine. When I got frustrated, he calmed me down with horror stories of other sales. When the Camp Fire was dominating the national news, he called to tell me the house was okay. He made helpful suggestions to our contractor regarding minor repairs and fixes that prevented possible delays later. I cannot imagine how to improve on John's performance except if he had acted as the agent for both us and the buyer.
I really appreciated John throughout the entire process. We are in Reno NV and thought that selling the house in Chico would be very time-consuming due to the distance. John made it really easy. He was very understanding dealing with our personal situation.

Buyer Rating:
He went above and beyond dealing with a very difficult seller. Im in another city, so John set up all the different inspections, repairs etc. I couldn't have done it without him! He's the best!
Buyer Rating:
John was great! He knew what we were looking for and didn't rest until all our needs were met. Very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. We will definitely use John again if we every buy and sell again. Thanks
Seller Rating:
Very professional. John took a tough house to sell and did wonders!
Seller Rating:
John sold us the house ten years ago. Over the years we had questions for John regarding possible sale of the property, repairs, and property value. He always answered our questions and never pressured us to make a decision. His patience paid off because when we were ready, he got the sale.
John is efficient and organized. He had a total plan ready but the house sold so quickly we never had to have an Open House or complete his plan. We feel the advice he gave us to prepare the property ( termite and septic inspections) for sale was valuable in making it attractive for potential buyers.
Buyer Rating:
he is honest, good, friendly, and patient.
Seller Rating:
John was again a pleasure to work with, he has sold and purchased homes for myself and my family at least 3 or 4 times as well as some close friends. As always he was himself, realistic, straight shooter direct, all things we have in common.
I enjoy being able to ask questions and getting real answers when it comes to everything, he was great in selling my home as well as purchasing my new home, I would never use anyone else!!!!
Buyer Rating:
It was great working with John
Seller Rating:
John Wallace was awesome! Everything he told us was exactly right. House sold in 4 days. Couldn't be happier. I'll recommend John to everyone.
Buyer Rating:
My home buying situation was different than most because I did not live in Chico, but wanted to buy a home and move to Chico.
John worked around my trips to Chico to show me homes as well as working with my family members in my absence.
John and I had spend more time on the phone and e-m ails as necessary, so communication was excellent between us.
John found the right house for me and assisted with inspections as needed.
John was very professional in the entire transaction.
I would recommend him to anyone.
