Meet John R.
With over 20 years of experience in real estate, finance, and economic development, John Jesso delivers exceptional results for buyers, sellers, and investors across Eastern North Carolina.
John began his career in Charlotte, honing his financial and business acumen with First Union, Wachovia, and Wells Fargo before transitioning into real estate. Today, as a proud member of SumnerBaird Real Estate, he combines deep market insight with a hands-on approach to guide clients through every step of the process — from property search and valuation to negotiation and closing.
Known for his problem-solving skills and attention to detail, John has earned a reputation for providing clear, actionable advice that helps clients make confident, informed decisions. His background in economic development — including leading over $80 million in downtown investment as Rocky Mount’s Downtown Development Director — adds a unique perspective that benefits both residential and commercial clients.
Passionate about the region’s scenic beauty and architectural charm, John is dedicated to helping clients achieve their real estate goals while minimizing stress and maximizing value.
When he’s not helping clients, John and his wife Stacy enjoy art, travel, great food, and wine — along with their loyal dog, Zeb — from their home on the water in historic Washington, NC.
Looking to buy or sell in the greater Washington region? Contact John today for expert guidance and proven results.
