John Arena

"John has represented me on the purchase and sale of a couple of properties on Nantucket and I am very satisfied with his representation. He is very knowledgeable of the Nantucket market and is excellent at analyzing and reviewing the business aspects of the deal; especially, if you are buying a property for the potential rental income. He is very responsive and good at keeping the deal moving along."

"John Arena has lived and worked as a real estate agent on Nantucket for 15+ years and knows the Nantucket real estate market better than anyone. He understood my criteria for buying a house and found me a wonderful place at a great price."

"John has a great understanding of local real estate trends and what buyers and renters are interested in. He was very helpful in transforming the vision for our property into reality and was able to offer valuable advice in terms of maximizing an income stream from seasonal rentals, while creating a home that we can enjoy as our own when we so choose.

He has an excellent sense of design that was rooted in the reality of cost control, a strong understanding of the rental market, and provided very good advice in terms of local vendors and contractors.

John provided me with an important appreciation for the purchase process, rental market, and ultimately, exit strategy for our home. The Nantucket real estate market is a bit different than most areas of the country. It is important to have someone who has deep roots and commitment to the community. I strongly recommend John Arena for any real estate transactions on Nantucket."

"John Arena worked hard to learn what was important to me in a home, found me the perfect place, and guided me seamlessly through the buying process.

"I decided to look for property on Nantucket this Summer. I was concerned about the experience even though I have some experience in real estate, as Nantucket is a very unique market. I wanted to find a realtor who was not just familiar with the market but who also was savvy and had a good perspective on investing. I decided to work with John Arena after meeting several realtors. For me it was an easy decision as John is serious, experienced and prepared. He is also a hard worker who makes no bones about representing his clients. John showed my several properties per day as I requested. When set out he handed me material on all properties we were to see as well as a detailed agenda. He was timely and we accomplished quite a lot per day. At the end of the day I wanted a realtor who knew the geography, trends and comparisons and John met all of my expectations. It was a good experience and I am pleased I made the right decision. Highly recommended."
