calling back or emailing within minutes most times. He also has a vast knowledge of contractors to recommend for work on the house.

I've been meaning to write you to tell you how much we appreciated all of your help in finding and buying our little piece of paradise here in Williamsburg. We appreciated your thorough knowledge of the market; your quick response to any inquiry, no matter how small; your expertise (and honesty) in spotting things that needed attention in various houses; your low-pressure attitude; and the immense patience you displayed during our long house hunt. I always had the feeling that you truly wanted us to find the best place for us, not just a place that would provide a quick sale. Our buying experience was immeasurably enhanced by all that your amazing assistant, Amy, did for us. She went above and beyond to make our purchase as stress-free as possible. She really is a credit to your team.

Other reviewers on multiple sites testify John Womeldorf is a superb real estate agent for both buyers and sellers. For my part I am here to stress if you are a buyer presently based outside Williamsburg area looking to relocate you absolutely should hire John Womeldorf aka Mr. Williamsburg. Don’t waste your time considering anyone else. Different situations mandate different skill sets. Most otherwise good enough agents lack. His communication skills on the phone are unparalleled. By investing just a few minutes on the phone with him he will be able to rapidly guide you to ideal properties. Don’t shortchange yourself by dismissing the label Mr. Williamsburg as a marketing ploy. He deserves the honor of being called Mr. Williamsburg in every dimension of the term. Most relevant here, he couples his comprehensive knowledge of this community with a rare ability. He educates you on what you need to know about this community only when you need to know it. He never drowns you in extraneous information just to show off his expertise. Our interactions with him were always delightfully efficient, because he took the trouble to listen to us carefully beforehand. Moreover in our particular situation he had an extra advantage over other agents, that may mirror the needs of other out of town buyers. We sold our existing home , some 600 Miles away from Williamsburg, prior to buying here. We wanted to be cash buyers. Although thanks to Mr. Williamsburg’s efforts we quickly submitted the winning bid on our ideal home here, we still were in need of a short term furnished rental prior to the formal closing of our purchase transaction. In a tourist area like Williamsburg a short term rental could have been obnoxiously expensive. Fortunately John has a couple of nearby rental properties that he usually uses as Airbnbs. He offered a solution to us that we found attractive. Our short term rental from him came fully furnished in an delightful area. Indeed whenever you encounter an obstacle please share it with John. He is a creative problem solver. Hire him.

John and his team helped us find our new home in Williamsburg. Living about six hours away during a red hot real estate market, John was extremely helpful with guiding us to neighborhoods that matched our wants and needs. He worked well with us to see homes quickly. We also appreciated his honest and frank evaluations of homes we were considering. His contractor knowledge from flipping homes was invaluable in evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of homes we were considering. He knows the housing, the area, the neighborhoods, schools, shopping, etc. so well. He truly is Mr. Williamsburg! We highly recommend him as your real estate agent whether buying or selling. On top of his professional attributes, John's just a nice guy! Very easy to work with and discuss anything.

...and he was great about pricing. I would absolutely refer him..and he was great about pricing.

John was exceptionally knowledgeable about all the different neighborhoods within Williamsburg. As first time buyers, John explained the entire process and helped us understand our best options. He was very accessible and referred us to great contractors. We are very happy with our new home!

and helping us maneuver the house buying process from a distance and during a very strange time in the real estate market. He kept a wonderful attitude even when we were a bit vague about our desires and helped us narrow down our search and find a house we are really enjoying. His article about the local golf courses was very helpful for my husband in his search for the proper fit. John had an amazing depth of knowledge about the area, services and useful contacts. We always felt comfortable with having him represent us and recommend him highly.

His local knowledge and speed in learning of upcoming listings made all the difference. John got us in the house first, helped us write a strong offer, and pulled out all the stops before, during, and after closing. I loved that John called in specialty inspectors to address my larger concerns and pulled quotes to help me understand the true impact of upcoming R&M. His recommended lender was equally helpful and responsive, even during Memorial Day weekend! If you want a Realtor who knows exactly what is going on in the local Williamsburg, VA market and will put you first in line, call John Womeldorf."

He was great to work with from the very beginning of this process and never let up. I am happy to provide a glowing – and accurate – testimonial or reference for John,

Hate high-pressure salespeople? Want to avoid surprises just before closing, delaying, or even jeopardizing your purchase? If you only want to work with a true professional, surrounded by a team that provides courteous, consistent support, then John Womeldorf (Mr. Williamsburg) is your only choice. John has stuck with us through my many questions and concerns; in the end, we found and purchased the perfect piece of land. Our property was a significant purchase for us, and leaving the details to chance was not an option.
