I worked with John Vinson & he was amazing. John listened to my needs & my wants and he sent me a good list of quality apartments that fit my preference. He set up the tours for me and followed up every step of the way. Once I found a property that I liked, he called the property to get the ball rolling for me with the application & approval process.
