John W. King

Selling homes isn’t just my passion, it’s in my blood. My mom was a broker for 35 extraordinary years. The unbridled happiness she got from helping families make their dreams come true inspired me to follow in her footsteps. After I finished up my degree in economics at Stanford, I picked up that mantle by first becoming an agent, then a broker shortly after that. In my almost four decades of residing and raising five children in Palo Alto, I’ve become not just familiar, but enamored with the area. The school district is phenomenal, the weather is perfect. I have intimate knowledge of all the best spots in town, from culture and entertainment, to dining and recreation, even education!

I am very happy to say that, as of today, I have helped more than 1,300 families make their dreams come true. In this time I’ve developed a strong personal philosophy; buying a home is the biggest decision you will make in your life. I want to be there for you every step of the way bringing integrity, attentiveness, and efficiency so you feel confident and prepared to face each and every unique challenge that comes with buying and selling your home. The best part of my career is handing my clients the keys to their forever homes for the first time, and watching the elation light up their faces. I’d love for the next ecstatic face to be yours!
