Testimonials


John Shikany was referred to us by my new boss. We were looking for someone who could help us find a home in a growing area with good schools that wasn't out of our price range. John did an excellent job finding us what we were looking for in a very timely manner. He was accessable when we had questions and the closing went off without a hitch. We've been very satisfied with our home. It has appreciated in value every year since we've been here which will be wonderful when it comes time to re-sell. I would highly recommend John to anyone who is buying or selling a home.
You won't be disappointed.

I am really happy that I used you to find my home. You looked for what I wanted and looked for things I might not have necessarily thought about when purchasing a home. You took very good care of me and I just want to let you know I appreciate all you did for me. It was amazing that I talked to you then within a day we were looking for homes! You do everything you can for your clients and you certainly made me feel that finding the perfect home for me was the most important thing. I just want to say "thank you" for being so kind and caring.

I will definitely recommend you to anyone that may be looking for a real estate agent because you are just unlike anyone else out there. You have the experience, knowledge, and personal touch. Buying this house, for me, was a big thing in my life. Having you there made it so relaxing and so special - it was more than I could have asked for. You weren't just trying to find me a home, you were completing my dream.
So thank you for making it come true!

John Shikany is a great real estate agent. He sold two commercial properties for us and handled both transactions in a most professional manner. We would highly recommend John as your REALTOR®.

Dewey & Peggy Agee, Springfield



We couldn't have been more pleased with John when we bought our home. He listened to us and found us the home we wanted in the right price range. From the time we met until closing, John was there to guide us through the entire process. We would recommend John to anybody interested in buying or selling real estate.

John Shikany was a big help during our home-buying process. It was our first home, and he took us through the process step-by-step. From building to signing on the dotted line, John was by our side. Even after we moved in, John remained as our liaison to the builder. He followed through on all the little things that needed to be fixed or touched up and made sure the builder did what was promised. John continues to be a trusted resource that we turn to with real estate questions.

My father recently passed away, and as the Executor of his estate, I was responsible for settling his affairs and distributing the assets among his survivors. One of the major items was to auction his house. My task was complicated by the fact that my father lived in Joplin, Missouri and I lived in Birmingham, Alabama. John Shikany was invaluable! He was able to swiftly assess the market value of the house, contacted a reputable auction company, helped with the auction announcements, and helped me conduct all of the necessary documentation to complete the sell. John provided guidance and counseling and made a difficult process very easy and uncomplicated. His service and customer-oriented focus is top notch. When things are tough John can always be counted on!

I am 22 years old. I have two children, Bryce who is 3, and Cameron who is 19 months. When I turned 18 like many teens, I messed up my credit pretty badly with over-extended credit card debt. John’s daughter Michelle and I were best friends in school and I knew that John was a real estate agent. I needed a house with a large back yard for my two boys. I called John, told him about my credit and what I was looking for, & he referred me to Mike Dempsey at Brown & Wagner Mortgage. Both of these guys have very big hearts and did everything in their power to help me find a nice home. John previewed homes for me then he and I went house shopping on a Thursday. I made an offer on the 2nd house I saw and by 5:00pm that same day, my offer was accepted! Buying a house, especially for the first time, is such a huge step and John really knew how much it meant to me. When I didn’t understand something, even if he had to explain it 5 times, he did so without making me feel like I was dumb for not understanding it the first time. I would highly recommend John to anyone who is buying or selling a house.

My family has known John for over 25 years and during that time we have not only recommended him to others for their real estate needs, we have used him ourselves on a number of occasions. On each occasion John has proven himself to be honest, capable and reliable. My parents both thought highly of John and when health issues forced them to sell their larger home and down- size, John was there for them. Not only did he find them the ideal house to retire to, he was able to sell their larger home in less than 30 days. Dad often commented on how well John had represented him, and he always carried John’s business cards. Whenever someone wanted to buy or sell a house, Dad was quick to recommend John Shikany.

Five years later when dad passed away it was only natural that my sisters and I called John to list his house. John was gracious and understanding through the whole process and took care of all of the necessary details making our time of sorrow much easier to bear. He not only sold the house in less than 30 days, he sold it for more than the asking price. What a guy! If you want an honest appraisal and if you want an agent that does more than just list your property then I highly recommend John Shikany as your man.


Vince & Brenda Gingery, Rogersville



With great patience and persistence, John found the impossible for me - a house in my price range that met ALL my requirements! When he listed my old house, it sold in three days.

Thanks, John - you're the best!

John was my mom and dad's agent so when we called them to ask about checking out some rentals, they suggested we call John about the possibility of buying our own home. From the first time we talked with him, John was very helpful & personable. John took us around to look at properties and we ended up buying a house in the same neighborhood as his daughter in Ozark, MO. It was the best thing we did for ourselves. We were first time home buyers and we were a little nervous but John definitely put us at ease. He has stayed in contact with us and it has almost been a full year. We are very happy with our house. We love it! We appreciate everything he did for us and the time he spent with us. He is definitely our REALTOR® from now on.
Thanks for everything John!
