Raised in western New York near Niagara Falls. Went to college and received a criminal justice - police option degree. Life took a turn and my wife Patti and I opened a restaurant until 1986. We then moved to The Tampa Bay area of Florida in 1987. I became a Florida Realtor in 1989 and a state certified Real Estate Appraiser in 1994.. After spending over 30 years in the Florida sun, we decided, in 2020, to move to the coolness of the mountains of North Carolina with our rough coated jack russell terrier, Mini Pearl. I then got my Real Estate license in North Carolina and Georgia. We are loving our view overlooking Waynesville from 4,700 feet up on Eagles Nest Mountain. We spend some time traveling in our 40' Redwood 5th wheel RV. and keep it in an resident owned RV park in Stecoah, NC.

I would give him ten stars if I could! John's experience and tact saved the day when my husband and I were trying to purchase our home. The sellers'

confusion along with their realtor's inexperience nearly nixed the deal, but John proposed a unique compromise that made all parties happy. Experience

counts!

Thanks to John Lasky for making an unusual and difficult VA purchase go through pretty smoothly. He was professional and seemed glad to make all

necessary calls for us. We would use him again and liked his outgoing friendly demeanor.

John spent a lot of time with us. First sending us the listings that included the items on our wish list, then taking the time to show us any number of

listings that we asked. He helped us find the property that we ended up purchasing. He made the experience enjoyable! I would not hesitate to refer him to

anyone interested looking to invest in real estate.
