Brad Mitchell, Osceola Indiana, a buyer from South Bend, IN
This was our first time buying a home. My wife and I could not be more happier with Lori, she listened to every one of our needs and actually listened when we spoke. She was everything we wanted in an agent and more. There was no part of the process that didn't explain to us so that we would understand. We can't speak highly enough about Lori, I will refer everyone I know that is buying or selling a home to her.

Agent/Lori was professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy, friendly, and quick follow up. She was detailed and we enjoyed the relationship. Great personality and confidentiality throughout the process.

Most of all she was humble, kind and not arrogant. Refreshing experience.
Henry Kim, Granger, Indiana, a seller from South Bend, IN
I previously chose Lori Johnston to be my realtor when searching for a house a few years ago in the Granger, IN area. She made the entire process as easy as possible for me, and I have been happy with the house that she found for me. When it came time to choose a realtor to help my mother sell her house in Niles, MI, I was thrilled to learn that Lori Johnston also has a Michigan real estate license. She helped our family prepare the house to be sold in a short period of time and was able to list and to sell the house in less than 2 weeks. Lori Johnston is an outstanding realtor. She is kind, honest, personable, knowledgeable, professional, dependable, and a pleasure with whom to work. I recommend Lori Johnston without hesitation and would recommend her to any potential home buyer or seller in Indiana or Michigan.

Kelli Kilpatrick, Texas, a seller from South Bend, IN
When we first reached out to Lori about the prospect of selling our house, she quickly pulled together market comps so that we could determine if it was a good time to sell or not. She worked quickly and communicated well. She then visited with us in person and gave us some pointers on what to do to make the home even more attractive to prospective buyers. We took all of her suggestions and found them to be of tremendous value in the presentation of our home. She truly knows what it takes to get a home on the market so that it shows well to prospective buyers.
Lori is a true professional that is also highly relational. She really wants what is best for her client and it shows in the way that she worked with us. I found her to work with a tremendous amount of integrity. In this particular transaction she was both the sellers agent and the buyers agent. It's the first time I've worked with a realtor who represented both. I found her to be fair and equitable to both and to really go above and beyond with aspects of the sale that would make things easier for each party -- sometimes at her own expense.
If you are selling or buying a home in South Bend, Lori is the one you want as your partner in that process. She knows the area well and has tremendous resources at her fingertips to tap into along the way. She really is one of the best in the area, if not THE best.
Lori was professional and easy to work with. She was knowledgeable and quick to respond to my texts. She got us above our asking price! Needless to say, I would recommend her to anyone looking for an agent who's both professional and a pleasure to work with.
I didn't know Lori personally, but once we met she made me feel instantly comfortable with her professional knowledge of home sales. She did an exceptional job in keeping me informed with every step of the process. She was willing go above and beyond in helping me find people who could help with a few things that needed attention. She's a class act!
This is the second time I have used Lori, and she always goes above and beyond to help her clients. Lori's knowledge and reputation makes you feel comfortable and confident that you are in great hands, from pricing to marketing she has you covered.
Lori was great to work with. She is friendly, outgoing, detail oriented agent. From listing contract to close, she is always available.

Lori was amazing, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell a home. She is highly knowledgeable and personable, and went out of her way to help in all aspects of the sale. She was quick to answer any questions we had, and we knew we could trust her advice. This was especially helpful when we were getting multiple offers, and we got a great result from our sale.
Everything with our sale went smoothly and easily, and communication was excellent due to Lori's efforts. Plus, she was a pleasure to work with, so it made dealing with the sale fun instead of a "chore".
Lori Johnston was amazing! In just the first month of having the property listed, we had the most activity - views, likes, tours - than we did in all the 6 months with our previous agent. She truly worked for us in getting the property properly marketed and seen; leading to the eventual sale. She truly works for YOU and what's best in helping you get the property sold. We appreciate her efforts and definitely recommend her!!
We recently relocated to South Bend, and were recommended by colleagues to contact Lori Johnston for our house hunting in the Granger area.
We were so lucky to have found Lori helping us buying the new home. Lori worked hard to help find the right house, given the cold housing market in the past winter/spring. She has always answered every call/text or email no matter what time of day it was.
After helping us locating the right house, Lori made everything easy for us from beginning to the closing in the end. Her professionalism, knowledge, honesty, and kindness are much respected and appreciated. Definitely will highly recommend her to anyone buying house in the area.
I recommend Lori Johnson fully and without reservation. She is an outstanding broker and a credit to her profession. She is friendly and honest and a wonderful person with the utmost integrity and professionalism.

"Lori is simply wonderful at what she does, polite and knowledgeable, she makes buying or selling a house a pleasant experience"
Dave & Diana Murray, Mishawaka, a seller from Mishawaka, IN
When I was initially recruited to the market, my wife and I were referred to Lori Johnston by my employer. We were extremely impressed with her knowledge, integrity and ability to assist on short notice. When it came time to sell, we didn't think about anyone else, and the selling experience was just as great as the buying experience.
In the industry that Lori Johnston is in, critical skills definitely include a professional, well developed interpersonal skill set adjunctive to knowledge and development of trust, and from the first time my wife and I conducted business with her, those attributes were readily recognized - and appreciated. Contracting with her as both a Buyer's Agent and subsequently a Seller's Agent proved highly effective in the outcomes we achieved. At the end of the day, we needed the best deal we could get in the market on purchase - and we achieved that. We subsequently wanted the best deal we could get on sale, and achieved that as well. The outcomes speak for themselves.
Lori Johnston is the best of any realtor we could have asked for. She is professional and knowledgeable. She understands her clients needs and goes above and beyond for her clients. She is trustworthy and has been through a long process with us as clients. She has not only been a great realtor but has become a great friend. I would recommend lori to everyone!
Lori provided excellent service. She explained every process and was a true representative of our interests. She was always willing to see another house and wanted to ensure we found the right home for us. Lori was in constant communication with us. We would highly recommend Lori as a realtor.
Teri Madden Granger, IN, a seller from South Bend, IN
I highly recommend Lori Johnston. Based on our experience, she must be the best realtor in the area. She helped us buy our dream home and sell our original house in only 2 days. Lori understands the local Real Estate market well and was proactive in suggesting properties to look at. We spoke with several who offered no help at all. It took us a while to find our home but she never was inpatient or frustrated with us. She was always friendly, helpful, honest and knowledgeable. She helped us through a difficult buying transaction that took several weeks and always kept on top of all issues to make sure they were solved. She seemed to know someone to help us with any need that we had for both homes. Lori really went above and beyond in all that she did. I can't imagine why anyone would use any other realtor but LORI JOHNSTON!
Teri Madden, Granger, IN, a buyer from Granger, IN
We spoke with several other brokers in South Bend and none seemed interested in really helping us with our unique need. ( a second home that we were in no hurry to get.) No one would call us back or if they responded they said "let me know when you find something and I'll take you to see it." Not helpful.
Then we met Lori. I can't find enough fabulous adjectives to describe her. She actually cared about us and helping us find what we wanted. She never got discouraged or let us feel she was tired of working with us but was always personable and upbeat. She is knowledgeable on the South Bend real estate market as well as real estate in general. We are so glad we met her and thankful she was our agent. I will recommend her to all of our friends.
Lori did everything I had hoped for. She was responsive and kept in contact at all times during the process.
Lori answered messages at all times of the day and night. She was patient with us throughout the process as we looked at several homes. I have already recommended Lori to a co worker and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home.
Lori was great, couldn't have asked for a better agent! 2018

Dave Murray, Mishawaka, a buyer from Mishawaka, IN
I was recruited here from Colorado by the company I now work for through their professional recruiter, who hooked us up with Lori. We traveled here for an initial tour of the area during the interview process. While here, Lori spent a half day taking us to different areas around greater South Bend after eliciting our interests in the types of homes we were interested in, types of neighborhoods, and price range.
After the offer was made and accepted, and we were definitely going to relocate here, we came back and Lori took us to several homes we were interested in - and we covered quite a few. We only had a few days to find a home, extend an offer, get a home inspection, negotiate a final price, and get a mortgage before we had to head back to prepare for the move.
Lori was absolutely outstanding. Extremely knowledgeable and well organized. She coordinated communication with the seller/sellers' broker quickly, as well as with a home inspection, banker, et al. Could not have done it without her expertise.
One of the most professional, ethical individuals I've ever met.
This was by far the most efficient and timely real estate transaction I've ever had, directly attributable to her work. We are now getting settled, and I was able to start my new position here on time. We will definitely use her again. 2017
Lori Johnston did a great job finding us a home and was able to schedule everything around our busy schedule. I also appreciated Lori's help showing us around the South Bend area and finding local services. She made the process of buying a first home from out of town as easy as possible. 2017
