About John Fortes

Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest calls you’ll ever make. You deserve someone in your corner who tells you the truth and fights for your best result.

I’m John Fortes, and I help buyers and sellers across the South Shore of Massachusetts through J. Fortes Real Estate, Inc. at RE/MAX Synergy. I’ll be honest with you about price, condition, and timing, even when it’s not what you hoped to hear. That honesty is what keeps you from overpaying or leaving money on the table.

If you’re buying, I want you to walk into every showing knowing more than the house is telling you. We’ll dig into recent sales, so you know what a home is really worth before you fall for it. When it’s time to make an offer, we’ll build a plan that’s strong enough to win and smart enough to protect you. As a licensed general contractor, I’ll also point out what’s a quick fix and what’s a real concern.

If you’re selling, I want buyers lining up for your home. You get professional photos, pricing built around how buyers actually search online, a full MLS listing you approve before it goes live, and direct outreach to local agents with the right buyers. It works. From 2024 to 2026, my sellers have averaged 102% of their final asking price (MLS PIN).

Either way, you’ll never wonder what’s going on. You’ll get weekly updates, real feedback, and quick replies to your calls, emails, and texts.

My goal is simple. I want you to feel so good about the way your move went that you’d send your own family and friends to me.

So what’s your next move? Call or text me at (774) 619-7846, or send John a message. We can talk through your goals over coffee or a meal, with no pressure at all. Worst case, you leave with a full stomach and a smarter plan.
