Lindsay Sutcliffe
We are extremely happy with our decision to work with John Dunlap. John was a tremendous asset to our family as we purchased a farm and, sold our previous place as well. John is extremely knowledgeable about the areas in which he works and the people and players involved; he was excellent on strategy and navigating unique situations and properties; and above all else, John struck a great balance of being very patient with us, and yet being quick to move when we needed to. We would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a property in the country.
