★★★★★
"We were so fortunate to have found Johnny Ronca 7 years ago when we bought our first home in Austin. As our Realtor, he helped us find the right house in the right neighborhood for the right price. He was so great we came back for his expertise when it was time to sell that first home he helped us purchase and to help us with the purchase of our next home. In short, he was always on our side, working to make the buying and selling of our homes as simple and successful as possible. The best part about working with Johnny is that he is always there to answer your questions, gives great advice, and makes sure your needs are met as his client. Our family has definitely found our lifetime realtor and would highly recommend Johnny Ronca to anyone interested in buying or selling property in Austin."
- India G.

- Monte C.
★★★★★
"We were living in Washington State and planning a big move down to Texas. We spoke with Johnny Ronca about our future plans, and he was the perfect agent to help us through the transition. He was patient, never pushy, always answered any questions or concerns promptly, and now we have our dream house! We cannot recommend Johnny highly enough. In fact, we have recommended him to several of our family members. He is a great ally to have at your side as you navigate through this complex process."
- Robert D.
★★★★★
"Johnny guided us to our dream home. He understood exactly what we were looking for, and he made the process flow smoothly and gracefully. I never imagined buying a house could feel so easeful! We are so grateful we had Johnny to show us just how smooth the process can be!"
- Brandilyn B.
★★★★★
"We were so lucky to have been matched with Johnny! He sent us tailored options that considered all of our must-haves and was patient with us (me) being very picky. Once we found The One, he went above and beyond to get our offer accepted within our budget (on a Saturday afternoon too)! Johnny didn’t stop there, and he held our hand through the mortgage process to match sure we closed on time. It was a really tight timeline before the holidays and before the baby was born, and there’s no way we could have done it without Johnny! And the cherry on top was how much fun we had with him along the way! Thank you, Johnny!"
- Margeaux O.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca was great to work with. Listened to what we wanted, made suggestions, and offered any connections he had so that we would make a new home ours. We ended up purchasing land, and he again offered his help during the build."
- Paul H.
★★★★★
"Johnny was wonderful to work with and still is proactively helping us settle the last few lingering details. We couldn’t have asked for more from a realtor, and the experience he gave us was exceptional, helping us get into our dream home faster than we imagined and on budget! We will definitely be referring Johnny to our friends/family when they need a good Realtor in Austin!"
- Margeaux + Jon O.
★★★★★
"Our agent, Johnny Ronca, was outstanding from day one. He assisted us in selecting the property that fit our needs. He was never pushy in any manner. Once we found the property, he stayed with us throughout the buying process until the closing and provided us with valuable guidance. We could not have been as successful in our move as we did, but for the assistance of Johnny. We wish him continued success in his career."
- Ram K.
★★★★★
"Johnny was introduced to me at Church (Gateway) and was a true friend/advisor. Mr. Ronca was always available on his direct cell phone, even on nights/weekends. Without his sage counsel, I would have been lost in how to begin the steps towards home ownership. I trust him 100% explicitly."
- James B.
★★★★★
"I cannot say enough how helpful and encouraging Johnny was throughout this rather complicated process. I uttered the statement, "I'm so glad I've got you in my corner," many times throughout the process. Johnny helped me determine what renovations I should do. He referred me to a best-in-class contractor that did all the work and found an awesome new home for me. I didn't have to do any work on this, and he answered all my questions immediately. Johnny held open houses for me, handled all negotiations for me, and got a price significantly higher than I expected. He was a therapist for me when I got stressed out Johnny has impeccable communication skills and such a powerfully positive attitude. Selling a house is an emotional process, and it's imperative to have someone like Johnny in your corner when doing so. I couldn't be more grateful and satisfied with my experience. Thank you, Johnny!"
- David S.
★★★★★
"I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone work so hard as Johnny Ronca did for us and with such patience and kindness throughout! His positive, grounding attitude helped guide us back to a hopeful state after any inevitable 'hiccup' we’d face as a client in the Austin housing market. Actually, he ended up turning every hiccup and disappointment into a blessing that worked in our favor. That is the kind of man you will be working with if you choose Johnny! An alchemist real estate broker! He has also surrounded himself with similarly amazing and knowledgable people that helped in the process. After inspection, he quickly took care of scheduling the various contractors to come review and estimate how much it would be to address the issues found. We were able to understand better what to expect for our budget and how we could work with the Seller so that everyone walked away happy. And yes, everyone did. He's fast, organized, talented, and worked at any time of day/night to get it done. He negotiated a truly miraculous deal on our dream house. We are so glad we chose to work with him and would do it again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Johnny!"
- Cora-Ann M.
★★★★★
"In the hottest real estate market in America, with some homes in Austin getting as many as 18 bids and going for 100K (cash) over the listing price, Johnny not only got us our first home (dream home) for 35k under the listing, he walked us through every step. He was an emotional rock throughout the process. He negotiates with researched market comps/facts in a lovingly respectful manner. Once we put in the offer, we quickly realized that he has also surrounded himself with really great 5 star reliable and friendly local professionals, so there was never a time we didn’t feel taken care of or trusting in his process. With Johnny, there is definitely a ripple effect of positive outcomes and good fortunes, synchronicity, and flow of abundance. That being said, he’s typically selling houses in the 1-2 million dollar range, so if you can get him for a 350-500k home, jump on it!"
- J. Holden
★★★★★
"We really enjoyed working with Johnny. He was extremely responsive and helpful with everything. From showing us homes, we found online, to responding quickly to texts and calls late at night, to assuaging our frequent worries and stress during the home selection process. Once we found a house, he was aggressive with putting through the offer and making sure it was accepted. And once the house was ours, he didn't disappear. We got great referrals from him for contractors, and he continued to check in on us. We would really recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."
- Sarah M.
★★★★★
"Johnny definitely exceeded any expectations! He is a dedicated, patient, creative, resourceful agent that is not afraid of any challenge. His hard work and dedication are to be admired. There were many challenges that arose in the proses, yet he was on top of any issue. Constantly coming up with suitable solutions that fit our limited budget. Johnny is a very positive person, and even a piece of bad news can sound good when delivered by him. I would recommend him to anyone who is selling or buying a home. We had the pleasure to experience both, the purchase of our new home and a challenging sale of our old home. Thanks to Johnny, his strong work ethic and love for his job, kindness, and dedication to the right thing we successfully closed earlier."
- Richard + Dita F.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca really helped me find my dream home and I am so grateful for his help and knowledge behind what he stands for. I began my home search last year but I was not serious about it until Late April this year. Johnny was able to swiftly find me something within a month's time span and I could not be happier living in my new space. Johnny's professionalism, patience, amazing attitude, grace, and negotiating skills made me feel at ease and safe. He was always in constant communication and bargaining the best deal he could! Johnny is trustworthy and works really hard to find the right fit with confidence and patience! Highly recommended!"
- Hiral P.
★★★★★
"My Realtor Johnny Ronca immediately helped my husband and I find exactly the perfect home we wanted! It is our dream home and to make matters better we got to build it the way we wanted it etc. He made our dreams come true and I can not thank him enough for helping us through the process and being patient with me and my husband as well. If we had any questions or concerns Johnny would get back to us right away! Even if it was the weekend and he would solve any confusions or things that needed to be corrected. I can say we went through several companies and real estate agents and the confidence Johnny also gave us made it 1,000 times easier going through the process! Thank you for being amazing and as he would say Love on!"
- Chelsea L.
★★★★★
"ExcellentRealtor! My wife is very picky and knows exactly what she wants. Mr. Ronca did a great job of finding houses she liked, visiting them with her, and helping her through the process. (I was also involved, somehow.) All in all, it was a fantastic experience, and we have worked with other Realtors before. Mr. Ronca was undoubtedly the best. I would highly recommend Johnny!"
- Adrian S.
★★★★★
"I originally decided to start working with Johnny after only speaking with him on the telephone for about thirty minutes and explaining to him what type of home I was looking for. I was working with a modest budget but had a list of must haves for my dream home. Throughout the past three years, Johnny has been there every step of the way. He has always answer every call, email, or text no matter what time of day or night it was. His professionalism, mentorship, knowledge, honesty, and hard work ethic are much respected and appreciated. I feel fortunate that Johnny helped me find the right house in the right neighborhood for the right price. I consider Johnny a dear friend now! He is also my son's and I Super Man for making it possible to be enjoying our home today!!"
- Esmeralda P.
★★★★★
"Johnny was extremely professional and always on top of things with a super-fast response time. He would work nights, weekends, and even while on vacation. Johnny had all documents ready in a timely manner and talked me through everything when I was clueless about what was going on."
- Laura K.
★★★★★
"Johnny is a wonderful Realtor. He is knowledgeable, patient, responsive, and friendly. We looked at numerous homes (50+) and some multiple times. We have a crazy and demanding work schedule, and Johnny was always flexible to assist us even when it was a last-minute request from us. With the Austin market being as crazy as it is, this is highly important. Johnny was also great at representing us when it came to purchasing our dream home and helped us win the bid over multiple offers. We also listed our home through Johnny, and he also exceeded all expectations when it came to the sale of our home. He made great and honest recommendations to help us sell quickly and at the best price. Johnny went above and beyond for us, and we personally recommend him."

★★★★★
"Johnny was an absolute joy to work with! We never felt rushed, and Johnny was very attentive and in tune with our needs. I felt very comfortable having him as our EXPERT on all things home related. He was willing to work with my husband, and I's busy schedule and craziness. He was amazing to work with during the house hunt and the selling of our home. He stuck with us even when we were being picky and wanted perfection. He knows his area and other realtors and was well connected. Johnny is a sweet, kind-hearted go-getter who will pull out his no-nonsense, get it done when it needs to get done-doer, which is awesome! He always had a smile on his face and made us feel comfortable throughout the process. If you need someone, go with JOHNNY!"
- S. Lee
★★★★★
"Johnny's local knowledge was superior to any other realtor we've dealt with. He found us the perfect house in Round Rock, even with our long checklists being met (way under our budget)! The closing process was also handled as smoothly as it could have been done. We closed in less than three weeks, even with all the new TRID rules back in Nov-Dec. I highly recommend Johnny!"
- Anonymous
★★★★★
"Johnny was fantastic throughout our entire home buying process. He answered all of our questions. We relocated from out of state so we had MANY. Johnny was very thorough and followed up frequently with us to ensure that we were fully aware of all of the steps being taken. I would recommend Johnny to anyone and we will if we chose to move again. Good Luck! They are a great team!"
- Roxanne H.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca was a dream to partner with in selling my Austin home. I was under pressure to sell my home quickly, and man did he deliver! Four days after I listed my home, I had four offers in hand ~ all full price or above! He worked hard, answered all my questions, and was fun to work with too! I'd recommend Johnny to anyone!"
- Michael W.
★★★★★
"We were so lucky to work with Johnny Ronca. I would highly recommend him to everyone. He is always available, prompt to respond and get you any information or documentation needed. He's very detailed, efficient and down to earth. We are first time buyers to a resale home and were guided the whole way through this crazy process with such care and professionalism. We are so new to all this but he never made us feel this way. Johnny understood the importance of getting us our first house and followed up on ALL angles possible to ensure that we would be able to attain our new home. He not only got us our dream home and was always honest about the overall condition of the houses we looked at. He kept us informed, educated us on the process, and continues to follow up with us. I can't thank him enough."
- Manuel C. + Giovanna N.

"My husband and I really enjoyed working with Johnny Ronca during the purchase of our new house. We had been through several real estate agents in the Austin area by the time we met Johnny, and his professionalism is what won us over. He was knowledgeable, personable, very responsive, and easy to work with. He was a Godsend when we needed him!"
- A. Vrentas
★★★★★
"I met Johnny in March. He showed a home we walked through, and he immediately took notice of my likes and dislikes he took the time to assess what my needs were and focused on them for our entire experience. He called and updated me on possible interests and accommodated my time quickly and efficiently. He was always respectful to my schedule and arranged every showing as quickly as possible. He always made me feel important, and that finding my home was his priority. It is truly a blessing that I met him. He found the perfect home and guided me through every step with encouragement, which is reassuring through the unknown events that may arise. His manner is calm and positive, and he has a support group he has gathered from Lenders to inspectors to closing. I Highly recommend this Realtor, who served with Integrity and Honest concern. He made my dream come true. It is a pleasure to write this by the way we closed May 1 st. I am living my dream!"
- Gail P.
★★★★★
"Johnny was so pleasant to work with! He paid attention to our requests and was accomodating to our schedule. The best part is we felt like he was working to help us and did not try to push a sale. We would highly recommend Johnny!"
- Julia M.
★★★★★
"We were looking for a home for over two years and thought that it was pretty much impossible. It turns out it is not impossible, and you just need to have the right people in your corner. Finding Johnny Ronca was nothing short of a miracle for us. I have never worked with somebody so driven and positive. He's an enthusiastic, energetic, resourceful young professional who takes pride in what he does and genuinely wants to help. It is a huge difference when you get what you can, and when you get what you want, Johnny helped us to get exactly what we wanted in the situation when hope was pretty much all we had. Love, love, love our new home! Thank you so very much!"

★★★★★
"We recently bought our first house with Johnny Ronca representing us. Johnny is a cool, laid-back kind of guy, but still professional and on point with his work. He was responsive when we needed him and he lowered the stress a good bit when juggling paperwork, out-of-state sellers, tenants, and everyone else in the craziness of buying a house."
- Brandon M.
★★★★★
"There is not enough that I could say about Johnny Ronca! As a first time buyer, especially in this market and in this area, to say the least it was not easy, but Johnny helped ease the pain. He was patient enough to explain everything that was happening as the process went along, returned our calls and made us feel that he had our best interest during the purchasing process. We love our house, and couldn't be happier! I highly recommend Johnny to any home buyer, or seller!"
- India S.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca was very easy to work with and has a great personality! We had initially tried to buy a home, but due to a short sale we have to wait another year. That didn't stop him. He found us a great place to rent for the year, and helped us make sure things were repaired to our liking. He even let us borrow an industrial ionizer when it was clear the horrible smoke in our home wasn't going away on its own. He was reasonably available when we needed him, and he was always on time! We are going to be keeping him when our year is up so he can help us find a new house to buy again. "
- Britton V.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca is the best real estate agent I've ever dealt with and that's an understatement. He helped us to purchase two real estate investments and continues to handle our rentals. He's always been very professional with a wealth of knowledge and honesty. He works with your budget and knows the Austin market inside out! Plus he's just a great guy and impossible not to like. Do not hesitate to call him to buy or rent a home in Austin."
- Carla C.
★★★★★
"I give Johnny Ronca five stars. Johnny is very knowledgeable about the real estate market in the Austin area. I liked that he listened to me and showed me exactly what suited my needs. He did not waste my time by showing me properties that I would not consider based on the criteria I gave him. He was always available when I called or returned my called right away. I would use him again and would certainly feel comfortable recommending him to my friends."
- Rita J.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca listened to what we wanted and didn't want in a house in the hot Austin housing market. This was especially important since we were living in another state. He quickly set up search criteria for homes that fit our needs. After only few days one came on the market and true to his promise, he jumped in his car, inspected the property, and narrated a walk through video for us which he posted on YouTube which was very helpful. He set up the inspection, met repairmen, did the final inspection and made the whole process quick with no surprises--we closed in less than 30 days after the house came on the market. Johnny is one of the most responsive real estate agents we have ever dealt with. He exceeded our expectations in every way."
- Greg M.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca was great! We moved from Nashville, and we had a basic idea of where we wanted to be. He cleared his schedule for us when we came to look for houses, and when we found the one, he did a great job closing the deal. We would use Johnny again in a heartbeat, and we highly recommend him for his professionalism and knowledge of the Austin real estate market."
- Murray M.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca is an incredible agent and I've already referred him to two close friends. He was extremely professional and proactive in helping us find our new home. We couldn't be any happier with his services. He really is the best we've ever worked with. If you want a home-buying experience that you'll actually enjoy, I highly recommend using Johnny Ronca."
- Christion R.
★★★★★
"My wife had been looking online for quite some time at homes in the Austin area as we were looking to relocate. Johnny Ronca emailed her when she inquired about some properties and stayed in touch for months until we were able to make the move into the area. When I found employment south of Austin, Johnny went out of his way to schedule a full day of house looking as we only had one day to come into the area. He did an excellent job helping us - even after we moved into the home. I highly recommend him"
- Daniel B.
★★★★★
"Being a first time home buyer and living in Chicago with my wife while looking for a place in Austin was quite an experience. With Johnny Ronca by our side everything got done. He was very accommodating when we flew in for a one day visit to Austin to find a home. He was insightful and made things much more clear for us. Even when things went a little crazy he always had some ideas to resolve the issue. We have been in our home for a few months now and enjoy it very much. We know we wouldn't be here today with out Johnny. He is very good and professional and I would reccomend him for new home buyers in the Austin area."
- Tony + Michelle K.
★★★★★
"Johnny is the perfect balance of professionalism and personable nature. We really enjoyed working with him, and he was proactive in finding us options that were the perfect fit for us. We found his guidance extremely helpful, and he really cared about getting the best outcome for us. He's already helped other friends find their homes, and I wouldn't recommend anyone else."
- Courtney R.
★★★★★
"Johnny was patient with us as we initially started our hunt for a home and then opted to suspend our search for four months. We didn't feel pressured as we looked at various houses and are very happy with the home we found. Also, Johnny was great with our three kids who were often in tow as we looked at homes. We appreciated that immensely. Thanks!"
- Jacob C.
★★★★★
"We really put our realtor, Johnny Ronca, through the ringer. And he was a trooper. It took me a year to buy something in Austin and when I finally decided to do it, it happened so fast it would make your head swim. Johnny would appear on 15 minutes notice to show me a house. Not only that, I believe he showed my daughter every rental in Austin before she found one she liked. We will surely keep him in our book of great people to do business with."
- Anniiei F.
★★★★★
"My husband and I worked with Johnny Ronca and had a great experience. We're both first time home buyers and Johnny made the experience palatable. My husband and I are tough critics, particularly when shopping around for homes. We told Johnny what we were looking for and he continuously provided home options within those specifications. He was patient with us when touring the homes and in the decision making process. Most of the time we said \no\" to the home. But Johnny never felt defeated and in fact, helped us not feel defeated either. Instead he'd go back to the drawing board and send us more house options to look at. In the end we found our perfect home. Johnny was a great resource along the way. Highly recommend him"
- Patricia N.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca helped me find a great place in Austin that I could not be happier with! He was friendly, professional, and is very familiar with the Austin area. With his services and knowledge, I felt like the whole process was virtually seamless. I could not be more grateful and appreciative of his efforts. I will definitely be recommending him. This is a great company to work with! Highly recommended."
- Brittany V.
★★★★★
"Johnny Ronca is the man. He made my wife and I's house searching process a breeze. We told him what we were looking for and that is what he delivered and then some. He constantly gave us great insight into the market and guided us through the entire process. As first time home buyers, this was much appreciated. We are now living in our recently purchased home and very happy. Cheers to Johnny for making the process enjoyable. Highly recommend!"
