"My wife and I are looking to move down to Charlotte in the near future and had the fortunate pleasure of being introduced to John Shaw with Pridemore Properties. We are first time homebuyers and did not know what to expect, let alone anything really about Charlotte. John spent hours with us on a Saturday afternoon driving around North Charlotte, particularly Huntersville, Davidson, Cornelius, and the greater Lake Norman area. John is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and has great energy. He knew exactly what to look for in a home, everything down to the smallest level of detail. He is also very cognizant of the benefits each area offers, particularly regarding education and commerce. I highly recommend anyone considering moving to Charlotte, particularly in the northern suburbs, to hit up John. You will NOT be disappointed!"

The process of buying and selling a home can be challenging and there is no one better to have on your side!"

"Officially a home owner thanks to John Shaw from Pridemore Properties! My Fiance and I were completely new to the homebuying process, but thanks to John taking the time to explain and educate us on what to look for when shopping for a home we were able to confidently purchase our new house. John made sure we were able to view the homes we were interested in regardless of how busy our schedules may be or where in Charlotte the homes were located. Whether it was toward Huntersville, North Charlotte, East Charlotte toward the University Area, or even Mount Holly he was there on time and ready to go. He is very friendly and knows a ton about the whole Greater Charlotte Area. I even called him up for some recommendations to bring some out of town, but soon to be family members out for some fun. We were referred to John Shaw by a friend and I'll be sure to continue that by recommending John Shaw to anyone looking for a Real Estate Agent in the Charlotte, NC area."

His communication was excellent, and they truly cared about making our transition smooth and successful. If you're looking for a reliable and attentive real estate agent for all of your real estate needs, look no further than John T Shaw!"

"The Charlotte / Huntersville market is hot, but it still takes a great agent like John Shaw to get a home like ours sold 10% over listing in 1 day!!! His knowledge of the Centennial neighborhood and Huntersville & Charlotte area in general as well as his relationships & professionalism our top notch. We also had a few unique sales challenges for any agent - short timeline, my wife is disabled and we needed a rent-back clause to extend our stay after the sale - and he negotiated everything we needed. He took a personal interest in our property to help us get top dollar, and we are thankful to John for helping us sell. I highly recommend John and his entire team to all looking to sell their home."
