His grandfather, Temple, started Coley Real Estate in 1953, and it is the oldest continuing real estate company in the Lake Martin Area.

John has served as Controller at Jerry Kyser Builder, Inc., a commercial contractor and real estate developer in Montgomery , Alabama.

John combines his financial experience, real estate knowledge, and love for the lake as a full time Realtor in the Lake Martin area. He enjoys spending time with his wife and their two sons.

John also enjoys fly fishing, hunting, and playing tennis.

Areas of Expertise

I specialize in helping people with real estate in and around the Lake Martin, Alabama area. Having grown up on the lake and in the real estate biz, I aggressively work my contacts and market sellers' property to the best of my ability. I also love to work with buyers, especially those new to the area, who need someone "on the ground" to help them find their own place on Lake Martin.

Testimonials

"I sold a lake home while deployed in Turkey because John cares. He was patient and always listened to my wishes. Bottom line, we sold our cabin with the lake down 9-feet because he is personable, smart, markets like no one I've ever seen, and most importantly...knows Lake Martin like he flooded the valley himself."

Lt. Col. Joe L.

"We live in Florida and had very little time to research the Lake for the property that would fit our family. John did just that for us... We are so excited about our cabin and looking forward to our first summer on the Lake, all because of John!"

"I owned some lake property, and someone called me up out of nowhere and made me an offer. I had no idea if it was a fair offer or not, so I called John. I knew he grew up on the Lake, and his family has been in the business since the fifties. He gave me a free consultation on the lake market, and I listed my property with him. I ended up selling for more than 60% over the original offer, without the hassle of selling it myself. "
