The best measure of any real estate team isn't what they say about themselves — it's what their clients say after the transaction is closed. The reviews below come from buyers and sellers across metro Denver who trusted The North Star Team with one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives.
Every review featured below is from a verified transaction. What you see here is what our clients experienced — in their own words, posted publicly on Google, Zillow, and Realtor.com.
We couldn't be happier with our experience working with John Grandt and the North Star Team. His market knowledge of Arvada and the greater Denver Metro area was incredible; he knew the neighborhoods inside and out and helped us feel confident about every decision we made. His communication was excellent, and he negotiated on our behalf with skill, always looking out for our best interests, and made the entire buying process smooth and stress-free.

"I cannot say enough great things about working with John Grandt. He is hands down the best real estate agent in Denver. His knowledge of the Denver market is unmatched, and he took the time to really understand what we wanted while guiding us with expert advice every step of the way. His communication was outstanding — he was always available to answer questions and keep us fully informed throughout the entire process."
"John was our listing agent when we sold our house in Anthem Highlands. He did a terrific job for us. He had the best listing presentation of the three realtors we interviewed, and he's a true professional. He artfully helped us navigate some rocky waters during the close of escrow, and we highly recommend you hire him!"
"John is the man. Professional and easy to work with. Did his homework and sold our house fast, over asking price. Best realtor in Denver. Thanks John."
"John Grandt was amazing with our home buying experience! He had extensive knowledge of the Westminster, Northglenn, and Thornton areas. His communication was excellent, this made the whole process go smoothly. He was not only able to meet all our needs — a walk out ranch with an open floor plan, in the area we needed, in the budget we had to hit — and all within the shortest amount of time I've ever seen a house closed."
"We worked with John for 9 months while seeking our new home in Colorado. John was proactive in identifying homes we should see, weighing the pros and cons and really took time to understand our wants and needs. He was instrumental in giving expert advice during the offer and negotiation process. John worked tirelessly for us, 7 days a week."
"We had the best experience with John as our agent on both the buying and selling side. He was clearly knowledgeable, kept us in the loop on things, found us exactly what we were looking for in a new house — and sold our house in 5 days when neighbors had been sitting for 2+ months. If you are needing to sell or buy — use John!"
"John was the most amazing real estate agent when we recently sold our house in Brighton. The professionalism, from the staging consult to the high quality pictures (including sunset drones!) and gorgeous brochure helped to sell our house for over asking in less than a weekend. John was a dependable consultant through the entire process."
"John separates himself from other Realtors in 3 ways: he takes the time to understand what his buyers really want; his buyers' priorities are his priorities — he won't show you properties over your budget to increase his commission; and he's willing to put in the work. He showed us over 60 houses in a competitive market, and researched every one of them beforehand."
"John crushed it again. When we went to buy our first house, he made the process super easy. This time in selling our house he went above and beyond to make the experience as painless as possible. He even went above and beyond by changing out light sensors on the garage lights because we had already moved out of state. There is no one I would trust more when it comes to buying OR selling a home."
"John is an outstanding realtor. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the market, and was invaluable in the process of selling our home and purchasing a new one. He is intentional, detailed, attentive and strategic. If you are looking for a realtor who will ensure you find your dream home or get top dollar from your current home, John is your guy!"
"John went above and beyond with us on our new build. After a party was had in our home prior to closing, he made sure that the builder made everything new for us and made sure our entire carpet was replaced even after they originally said they would not. He treated us like we were his number 1 priority during the entire process."
"John was great to work with. He created an amazing marketing portfolio. The pictures and video he used helped get us multiple offers. In the end, he helped get us well over our asking price. We will be using him again."
"John was excellent to work with through my home buying process. He was able to help navigate during a pandemic to keep the search and eventual closing on track with my timeframe. I would recommend John to anyone in the metro area looking to buy/sell!"
"We would have given ten stars if possible. John is awesome!! This is the third house we've sold and John is the best of the best. His marketing plan was extensive, rapidly set in motion and effective. I especially appreciate the way John talked and listened to us. He showed us how to set the house for pictures and the results were astonishing — the photos and 3D walk through really captured the value of the house. In the end we had an offer in 48hrs that was much higher than our asking price. You will not regret having John as your realtor!"
"A different agent referred us to John because of his familiarity with the area we were looking at. We found our home quickly and easily, working well with our needs and wants. Exceptionally organized, professional, personable, and well dressed."
"John is always willing and eager to go the extra mile to take care of his customers! Was excellent at negotiating the right price for our new home. We were out of state buyers and John took care of everything."
"John is a great realtor — the first house he showed us we bought! Very professional, attentive to detail and very easy to work with. He stayed the course through a very trying and frustrating buying/closing process. John is a straight shooter and extremely honest. I can highly recommend him to anyone seeking a truly professional Realtor."
"John did a great job on our Denver home search. With the hyper-competitive market and low inventory, we needed someone responsive and knowledgeable — and John delivered. With over a hundred couples touring the property in one day, we were out of our element, but John walked us through the whole process and had us under contract two days later. We have now been in our home for about a month and could not be happier. Thank you, John!"

Reviews on those platforms are independently verified by each platform and cannot be edited or removed by us. We encourage anyone evaluating our team to read reviews across multiple sources.
A few themes come up repeatedly in our reviews. Clients consistently mention the thoroughness of our marketing, particularly the professional photography, video, and pricing strategy that often leads to sales over asking. Communication is another recurring theme — clients note that they felt informed and supported throughout the transaction rather than abandoned after signing. And many clients comment on the dedicated-agent experience: working with one REALTOR® from start to finish rather than being handed off. These themes reflect how the team was intentionally built — every agent is trained to be a complete, full-service REALTOR® rather than a showing agent or junior teammate.
Yes. The North Star Team regularly works with first-time buyers, and several reviews on this page reflect those experiences. We spend the time needed to walk first-time buyers through every step of the process — from pre-approval and property search to offer strategy, inspection, appraisal, and closing day — so that buyers always know what's coming next. No question is too basic, and no buyer is too small a transaction to get the full team experience.
