John Douville

As a Tacoma native, REALTOR® John Douville absolutely loves his hometown, and wants to help you join his family of neighbors in North Tacoma! He believes that it is the best place to live in Washington, and he is ready to show you exactly why!

Before delving into the world of real estate, John worked many fields and owned a couple of businesses: “I have owned a small nursery out towards Puyallup, called Jade Mountain Nursery, as well as a small landscape company. I worked for a contractor in Bonney Lake as a framer, as an independent handyman, and I interned at Boeing for engineering out of high school. Throughout it all though I have worked in the restaurant industry for fifteen years and held every position from dishwasher to bar manager. The underlying years of customer service, a background in construction, and running successful businesses has led me to this fitting combination.” He believes it is the agent’s duty to not only have extensive knowledge of the mechanics of a transaction, but that of the home as well. "Quality of service is paramount in this business. I believe in complete dedication to the interests of my clients."

John’s many years of experience have taught him how to work and serve his clients: “I listen well and take nothing a client may say for granted. Details are important and creativity is a must.” John lives just North of UPS in Tacoma, and he knows the neighborhood well. Each year, he grows a beautiful vegetable garden: “I take a lot of pride in producing enough tomatoes for not only myself, but all my neighbors.” He also stays busy with running in the Tacoma Runners Club, golfing, and working on several projects in his large metal/wood shop. John is also a huge Seahawks fan! “I might be one of the loudest Seahawks fans ever... of course, all us Twelves think that I suppose.”
