About John J Howard & Associates Real Estate
John Howard, Principle Broker/Owner
Thank you for taking the time to check out our office blog site. We take great pride in providing high quality service to our clients. We continue to seek educational opportunities to become more effective professionals for our clients. We serve our community in many different ways. We serve in the local Soroptomist Club, the Lions Club, and the United Way; we are leaders in local economic development organizations, La Grande Main Street, Eastern Oregon University Booster Club and we are involved with the Union County Fair. Our Brokers have trained with the Graduate Realtor Institute, Certified Residential Specialist, Senior Certified Residential Specialist and e-PRO. Created on October 23rd 2007, John J Howard & Associates Real Estate is located in the heart of downtown La Grande, Oregon. Our office has 10 Brokers, who are some of the most experienced, and professional Realtors in Eastern Oregon. We follow market conditions through networking, participating in weekly Multiple Listing Meetings and tours of home. One of our major goals for the company is to strive to be a leader in the use and development of technology. It is no secret that technology is changing the future of Real Estate Marketing. Our office has set a goal to be on the cutting edge in the utilization of this powerful medium. We strive to maintain a user friendly company web site that ranks high in Search Engines. Our realtors maintain blog sites to enhance our marketing plan, and our office window features a flat screen HDTV to display our property listings. We send out just listed cards to the neighborhood and we utilize brochure boxes. Finally, transaction management is an integral part of our job as Realtors. Follow through and coordination of transactions does not stop with the opening of escrow. There are many steps that must be addressed during the home buying process in order to close the sale. At John J Howard & Associates we pledge our commitment from the writing of the offer to handing you the keys to your new home.
