John Karrigan is very pleasant and personable, a good communicator, and was attentive to our wishes. He gave us good advice. We feel he did all he could in a somewhat soft market. We would certainly recommend him to others.

Working with John Karrigan is a most pleasurable experience. Selling and buying a new home is time-consuming and can be stressful. Not with John Karrigan. He knows his profession on all angles and he listens to your needs and then goes out of his way to find home choices that best suit your needs. He is professional, friendly, efficient and timely. John is superb at market analysis, communicating, and in your corner when questions or major concerns arise. Our family has used John Karrigan and Century 21 multiple times. He is a five-star realtor!June 2019
The characteristics that we personally admired the most were: trustworthy, clear communications, accessible and knowledgeable.
Topping Road, was our family home for 57 years. That made the selling of our home more personal than the previous homes we sold. John Karrigan was most respectful of the emotional attachment to the selling of that home.

I am not local, not even US citizen , I am a single mother from Taiwan working in Shanghai China . I was looking to buy a condo close to UW campus for my daughter , Sharon who is going to be a freshman in UW in September. My friend Dr. Samuel Kupper in Philadelphia did research on internet and made phone calls to several brokers in Madison , he was impressed by John's fast reply and knowledge, and especially the understanding of our needs on the location ,our budget range and concerns on the safty to a young lady that will leave home the first time going to live alone in a foreign contry 7000 miles away. John helped me booked the hotel and pick me up when I visiting Madison to look at the houses he searched for me . He frankly told how he thinks on each house , showed me around the city , took me to look at furnitures and the school and gave me advise on the offer to seller. All went very smooth during the transaction , I am very pleased with his service and appreciate on his help when I was there last month, and his help in receiving Sharon's arrival yesterday , pick her up , took her to stores, bank , apply for the utilities befor she arrived , and the offer to tsk her to apply the cable and cell phone . If I know anyone will invest in real estate in US, I will strongly recommend John Kerrigan and Century 21 . Dr. Samual Kupper and I both agree John is a special and super nice man. Thank you so much for your excellent service and all the efforts helping us . August 2018
John pays close attention to every process and communicate with me in time .
He reminded me several times to be careful and confirm with title company about the receiving bank account to be safe .
He applied utilities before Sharon arrived there . He is very nice and professional .
We had a pleasant experience with him .
John did an Excellent Job . What he has done is much more than only a realtor , it is like an old friend helping us to accomodate to a new place .
Excellent !

John Karrigan was able to make his schedule work with mine when we had to meet in person as well looking at houses. John would go out of his way to meet with me if he needed a paper signed by me that could not be done online. Sometimes he would come to me instead of always having to drive to his office in Madison. John was available through call, text, or email which was awesome for when I had just a simple question that he could answer when he had time.December 2017
John Karrigan is very easy to talk to and is willing to answer any questions you have no matter the question. He cares about you as a person and makes sure that you find a house you will enjoy for a long time. He tells you exactly what you need to do next in the process and makes sure that you know what is going on through the whole process.
While going through walkthroughs John knew just what to look for and would explain to me why something was a good or bad deal.
John Karrigan helped me find the perfect house for me at a good price. He knew about the house I found before others did and he did all that he could to make sure that I got it over anyone else. John is very friendly and a guy I wouldn't mind meeting up with outside of business hours, he is friendly and cares about his clients.

I have nothing but good things to say about John. My daughter who lives in Los Angeles worked very closely with me to sell the house. She was also in touch with John through e-mail. She told me that when she contacted him about an issue he was right back in touch with her. She is tougher than I am in judging the performance, and when she says he was excellent, he was excellent;November 2017
My initial contact with John was very important. My first impression was that he knew his business and that he cared about me. I did not sense that he did not care about my needs. He was friendly and I really liked that he came prepared with information. I interviewed another company and their representative could not compare to John. Thoughout our dealings he kept in touch with me and my daughter answering questions every step of the way.

John was a fantastic partner to us in searching for this condo. Without his deep expertise of the local dynamics and his infinite patience in this tough market, we would not have achieved the great outcome that we did.

John Karrigan was awesome. Everything went very smoothly. He clearly knew the area and once he met with us and our daughter, he knew what we wanted and chose places accordingly. He stayed in contact with us. He went above and beyond in helping us not only find a place, but once our offer was accepted he helped us find a painter, carpet place, and furniture places as we live 2 hours away and are not familiar with anything in the area.July 2017
We were so happy that our daughter chose John as her realtor. She researched realtors and chose John based on his reviews. We couldn't have picked anyone better. We live 2 hours away and he worked with us and our schedule. Once he met with our daughter and he knew what she was looking for he kept her best interest in mind during the search.
We couldn't have been happier with our choice of realtors. We felt John Karrigan treated us like family. We felt very comfortable from the first time we met with him! He is top notch and if we ever need another realtor in the Madison area, he will be our guy!

John was the listing agent on a previous home I looked at and I just loved his style so had to take him with me on my home adventure! We had my house on the market in no time and multiple offers within days! Loved the entire process, made it seamless and I didn't have to worry about a thing.

John Karrigan is a five star realtor! He exhibited great communication skills and he was highly knowledgeable of the real estate market. John accurately generated an asking price for the house through comparatives and knowing the neighborhood well. We were able to get full asking price and more! June 2017
In order to get a full asking price my husband and I decided after the inspection to make some renovations. With John's help, we were given the names of all certified contractors and a roofer who did quality work and cleaned up the day they were finished.
John was always going the extra mile by helping with tasks while we were on vacation. Mostly, his organization skills kept us in order and always with in a timeline. We really appreciated his timely manner of responding to all of our calls and emails.
In the end, it was a most pleasurable experience working with John Karrigan and we would definitely recommend John's expertise and good humor to all looking for a five star realtor. Peggy Glynn

My husband and I were first time homebuyers so everything was very new and confusing for us. We originally had chosen a different realtor but I felt like she wasn't looking out for our best interest. Once we switched to John, everything went smoothly and he always recommended properties that were within our budget and the layout that I wanted. He didn't push us to something we didn't want or couldn't afford. He felt honest and he was very knowledgeable. I have two toddlers who are always very active and the kids were always very pleased to see John! They loved going to his office. He wasn't bothered that the kids were always with us during meetings and showings which is something I really appreciated. John truly went above and beyond. Overall, this has been a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend him. My husband and I are very happy with our purchase and it is thanks to John!

Every detail that John Karrigan said would happen . . . happened throughout the process of selling my property. John identified a qualified buyer within 24 hours of the property going on the market. I met my goal of selling the property before the end of 2016. The property got listed in late October; I had a check from the buyers in my hand by the end of November. December 2016
John knew the Madison market. He priced the property effectively. His experience, knowledge, personable communication, and performance were impressive.
I'm so glad that I chose John Karrigan to handle my sale. He exceeded my expectations. I have the utmost respect for and confidence in him.
I proudly recommend him: trustworthy, friendly and kind, sense of humor, attentive to details and customer needs, and effective. Bravo, John!

John Karrigan was honest, genuine, and always kept our best interests at the forefront. As first time home buyers, he truly supported us throughout the entire process, and was clear and concise with every step of the way. He went above and beyond to make us feel at home with our purchase, and he communicated amicably between the seller and us. We are confident that our transition into our new home would not be as pleasant without John's support during the process.

This was our first time buying a home. John Karrigan was amazing at educating us about the entire homebuying process. He is extremely knowledgeable about all areas of real estate, especially in the Madison area. Multiple times he would go out of his way to meet with us after a work day or on a weekend. He made us feel like we were his priority. I never had any anxiety about the process because I knew John had it all under control. His cribbage game is not too shabby either.

John made himself available even with our out of the ordinary work schedules which meant a lot to us.
If we were to purchase another property in Wisconsin, we will call John.
He made the purchase of our new property go very smoothly. He consistently kept us in the loop and helped us through the many details of the purchasing process.
