John Cella did an excellent job helping my wife and I navigate our first home purchase. John was knowledgeable, proactive, thoughtful, and responsive throughout our search.
We spent about 15 weekends viewing homes all over Brooklyn with John, and he remained patient and friendly with us throughout our long process. From sending us options for viewings calibrated to our needs, to strategizing with us on offer pricing, to bringing us coffees at early morning viewings, John was a joy to work with.
He is very responsible and has a great handle on the New York real estate market - including not only local pricing and comps, but also recommendations for the vendors for us to work with. John was great! Highly recommend him!

John Cella is a wonderful agent. He is patient and goes with the flow.
We have been looking off and on for a year and a half and we have never felt pressured to buy or move forward. John gives his time and devotion to helping you find what you are looking for. He is also a great listener.

My husband and I were first-time homebuyers looking to purchase a townhome in Brooklyn with my in-laws. While we knew we needed to work with a buyer's agent, we were very wary at first - in our many years of renting in the city, we hadn't come across one agent or broker that we had actually enjoyed working with.
When we started working with John, we were instantly relieved. John is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to the Brooklyn market.
He had a good sense of what places may go for/how the price may change, and even had been to many of the places we saw previously. He also was just such a pleasure to work with - he was so patient in answering all of our (many, many) questions, working with our specific preferences, and in never pressuring us to take the next step if we weren't ready. We moved into our new home right before Thanksgiving and couldn't be happier!

Very professional. When selecting a place, John put together and continually updated a spreadsheet with the history of the offers, prices per square foot, amenities in building/unit, etc.
It made it much easier to truly compare places from a quantitative perspective.
He also helped out immensely with the financing, board package, and closing. Overall, it was a top-notch experience.
