"John Tinsley is by far the best realtor I've ever dealt with. He went above and beyond in helping us find the right property, giving expert advice throughout the transaction, guiding us through the inspections, and generally providing a bunch of other incredibly helpful support including referrals. John was truly our advocate throughout this buying process and I felt confident that he was looking out for our best interests. I erred in not heeding his advice to choose a local mortgage lender and am still suffering the consequences of my mistake, so I strongly recommend that you listen to his recommendations. You won't regret it."

"Call on John Tinsley at Looking Glass Realty. He's the BEST there is in Western North Carolina and knows the area so well. We had the distinct pleasure of working with John Tinsley for the recent purchase of our home in Penrose. John is one in a million. He is so good at what he does, ALWAYS goes above and beyond his call of duty for his customers and clients, and by the time we closed, we felt like we were working with a family member rather than a Realtor. John Tinsley at Looking Glass Realty should be your choice if you're looking to by a home in Western NC."

"I'm so glad we found John Tinsley with Looking Glass Realty. John from the start was someone we knew would be a great fit, he's professional, honest, kind, and extremely knowledgeable. He did video walk-throughs for us as we were buying from out of state. When we were in town he put aside a lot of time to show us houses. John was in constant contact with our lenders who were not always on track, but he kept the process going. He really fought for us and our best interest and we highly recommend his service!! His kids are really cute too. We ended up finding a great house thanks to him!"

"John Tinsley was who we used. We were not only able to sell a home but also bought one with him and on each side he did great. I would recommend him for many reasons but mostly because he is not a "salesman" he gives you real advice and says it how it is."
