View John's Listings

John represents the third generation of residential brokers in the Turpin family. Proud of his family heritage, his understanding of real estate began as a child when he listened to business conversations between his father and grandmother. John is the son of Jack Turpin, the company's president, and grandson of Virginia Turpin, the company's founder. Both Jack and Virginia supplied John with inestimable advice about real estate and life in general. As a lifelong resident of the Somerset Hills who attended high school at Morristown-Beard School, John is uniquely qualified to assist natives and newcomers alike.

After graduating from The University of Colorado with a Bachelor of Arts degree, John managed a small clothing manufacturer in Boulder. In that position he learned a great deal about effective communication, how to actively negotiate and the importance of customer satisfaction. This experience proved to be an outstanding foundation for a career in home sales. Shortly after coming back East, John joined the Mendham office, where he quickly demonstrated a flair for marketing homes in all price ranges.

Since 2005, John has been managing the Oldwick office of Turpin Real Estate, as well as the marketing department and several of the day-to-day operations that come with being a part of the family business. His characteristic good judgment, expertise and insight are key assets to the company as it continues to be an influential presence in the area.

Not surprisingly, family is very important to John, and when he’s not working he enjoys spending time with his wife and two young daughters. After college John made his living playing music and enjoyed some success in that industry, including appearances at the prestigious Telluride Bluegrass Festival. Today music is an important outlet for him, and he enjoys playing guitar and mandolin with friends and family whenever possible. John also serves as the vice president of the board at the Somerset Lake and Game Club.

John's commitment to the overall success of Turpin Real Estate is genuine; he supports fellow sales associates with their individual goals, and takes the time to recognize the importance of each individual achievement. Clients and co-workers appreciate the hands-on professional style John employs, knowing they can rely on him for straightforward advice about the market.
