Meet John

For John Fondnazio, real estate is about more than buying and selling homes—it's about helping people navigate some of life's most important decisions with confidence.

A lifelong Contra Costa County resident, John has spent years building a reputation as a trusted advisor, skilled negotiator, and dedicated advocate for his clients throughout the East Bay and Lake Tahoe markets. Whether helping first-time buyers, move-up families, luxury home sellers, or second-home owners, he combines local expertise, strategic marketing, and a hands-on approach to deliver exceptional results.

As the founder of Team Fondnazio at eXp Realty, John leverages innovative technology, data-driven marketing, and a powerful network of industry professionals to help clients achieve their goals while making the process as seamless as possible. His commitment to service, communication, and attention to detail has earned him the trust of clients who return to him time and again and confidently refer their family and friends.

In addition to serving clients, John is an active leader within the real estate industry. He currently serves as President of the Contra Costa Association of REALTORS® and as a Director for the California Association of REALTORS®, helping shape the future of real estate while advocating for homeowners and property rights throughout California.

When he's not working with clients, John enjoys spending time with family, golfing, traveling, and taking advantage of everything Northern California and Lake Tahoe have to offer.

  • John listened to what we were looking for in a home purchase and then gave us excellent suggestions. We were never pressured or discouraged from pursuing our criteria and received excellent, realistic assessments on each property we were shown. The eventual purchase of our new home was exactly what we had sought, and John's professionalism and help were greatly appreciated.
    — Buyer
  • He is eager to help and enthusiastic. He also seems very knowledgeable about renovation because he was a contractor. He would be a very helpful agent. I recommend him for the area.
    — Buyer | Seller
  • It was a pleasure working with John! He was incredibly communicative throughout the entire transaction and made the process smooth and stress-free. His professionalism and positive attitude made him great to work with—I’d happily collaborate again!

  • During my life, I've bought/sold a dozen or so homes. I've never worked with a real estate pro like John before. He spent time understanding our wants and needs, taking a "default to action" approach, operating with a sense of urgency, while making sure all of the details were covered. John has a tremendous rolodex of professionals that we used for preparing our home for sale and absolutely has his thumb on the pulse of the market. In addition, he's a great guy with an engaging personality. I strongly recommend John for your real estate needs!
    — Josh G.
  • John Fondnazio is an exceptional realtor. From the initial stages of analyzing the market potential for selling our house to executing the sale process, John provided an extreme level of professionalism, local knowledge, and business acumen, guiding us throughout the process. He helps us maximize our sales price and closes quickly without any issues. John was the most professional realtor we have worked with, and we highly recommend his services.
    — Kent K.
  • John is an outstanding, kind, and very helpful individual, without whose help I would not have been able to complete the sale of my wife's condo.
    — John M.
  • John's deep history at Tonopalo, combined with his extensive understanding of the Tahoe real estate market, offers a tremendous benefit to those interested in buying or selling at Tahoe. John is thoughtful, honest, and detail-oriented. Our transaction was as smooth as possible thanks to his extra efforts. Highly recommend!
    — Steve B.
  • I have now done 2 real estate transactions with John. Both have been very smooth. The nice thing about working with John is that he knows the market really well, and he has all the data necessary to make it successful. He will always work in your best interest, and he communicates really well and is always accessible. I highly recommend working with John for your next transaction.
    — Christian K.
  • John helped me sell my rental home in Livermore. The home was in need of updating the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, and painting inside and out. John excelled in working with the contractor. He did everything from picking out the colors to selecting all materials. We had to leave out of town, and John took care of everything. The house sold in less than two (2) weeks, and we had an offer higher than the listing price. What else can you ask for? We look forward to working with John again on the next property we are now currently looking for.
    — R Mason
  • Working with John was a complete slam dunk. His knowledge of our demographic and his ability to properly market our property led to total success. If you are looking for a qualified professional to serve all your real estate needs, then look no further.
    — J Maida
  • John helped me buy a home in Pleasant Hill. Working with him was a completely positive experience. He listened to what my needs and wants were and was very proactive in finding exactly the property I desired. John was available to talk in the morning, evening, and on the weekends, constantly staying in touch. His communication skills are excellent, and his thought process is clear and reasonable. Throughout the closing process, he was solution-driven, and through his efforts, he closed an otherwise difficult transaction. I respect his work ethic and professionalism and would not hesitate to hire John for my next real estate transaction.
    — P Miller
  • John was the first real estate agent I felt comfortable with. He never pushed us to make a certain decision and did not use fear, uncertainty, or doubt to influence us. It felt like we had a friend who actually really likes visiting houses with us.
    — Lukas S.
  • John has, for several years, spearheaded efforts to locate and secure renovation properties in the Bay Region for our enterprise. He is considered a part of our company team.
    — Coyote Adventures, LLC
  • John did an excellent job helping us sell our home. We were able to quickly get our home on the market, and it sold for over the asking price. John was in communication with us every step of the way. The transaction went very smoothly. I recommend John to help you with your real estate needs!
