Get to Know Me

My wife, Andrea, and I have been buying and selling properties for 35 years. Real Estate ownership is one important component of a successful personal financial strategy. I enjoy helping people to achieve a comfortable lifestyle and to build wealth through Real Estate. I work in a Client-Centered relationship model. To be effective, I need to know you and understand your objectives. Are you looking for assistance on a single transaction or are you hoping to find a resource for ongoing projects? Are you a "first-time" property owner, an experienced Real Estate Investor, or somewhere in between? Are you comfortable with legal documentation? What about negotiation? Are you able to forecast a return on investment? I'm proficient in listening and networking with other professionals that can add value to your transactions.

I have a specific skill set that enables me to provide the resources necessary to meet the needs of my clients. I come from a software background and realize the benefits, and drawbacks of technology and utilize it accordingly. Finally, I believe we are all designed to serve. Using our talents and experience to provide service to others enables us to experience happiness and fulfillment.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

John went above and beyond to make buying a new house as stress-free as possible. We found the perfect house for my family and closed quickly. He took care of all the details. I couldn't have asked for a more professional and thorough person for the job.

— Kate C.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

John did an excellent job of selling our Lake Travis (lakefront) lot. He brought multiple offers to us within days of the listing and went through the pros & cons of the terms and amounts. We have bought and sold many properties over the years. We highly recommend John if you are buying or selling Real Estate in the Austin, TX area.

— Jim & Jane N.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

My wife and I are first-time home buyers. Being absolutely inexperienced, it was a pleasure working with John to purchase our first home. He is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and kind. He made what could've been a very challenging experience into a painless, and quick process. We are more than pleased with our new home and are grateful to have worked with him.

— Bryant O.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

John is the BEST. We recently purchased a home and John was a huge help and a calming influence. The closing happened very quickly and smoothly. We were actually out of town, and John was able to direct us in the process, and reassurance that it could easily be done. And it was, couldn’t have gone any better. I would highly recommend and would gladly work with him again.

— Cindy & Patrick S.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

We are very happy with the work John did to sell our Apache Shores lot. The entire process took less than 30 days! John knew of a Buyer interested in the area and approached him before listing the property in MLS. The Buyer made us an excellent cash offer and we accepted. We used a local Title Company and the transaction was very quick and easy. We will definitely continue to work with John on future Rea...

— Angel B. & Austin E.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

John’s style was the perfect match for buying our Galveston, TX investment property / second home. He was very attentive and accessible throughout the process. If he didn’t know the answer to a question, he made sure to track down the detail to satisfy my ask. I would use John again in the future – John knows the Lake Travis lakefront area of Austin and the Houston markets very well. Thank you, John, for...

— Javier E.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

I just want to say how much I really appreciated working with John in the selling of my dad's home. During a very difficult time in my life with the sudden passing of my dad, John was able to step in and guide me through the selling of my dad's house and filtering through the offers so that we (the family) weren't taken advantage of. He was very helpful throughout the process, even when I was feeling ove...

— Barbie E.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

My wife and I had been looking for a house for months and not getting a lot of help. A friend connected us to John McCarthy and immediately he went to work. After a week we found a house that we liked. John gave up his Sunday afternoon to show us the house and we put an offer on it that night. Two days later we were soon-to-be homeowners. Having never bought a house before my wife and I was not sure what...

— John H.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

I work a job that requires a lot of travel, but I always knew I wanted Austin to be my “home base”. The Austin housing market moves so quickly, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to find a place while balancing my professional and personal calendars. John worked with my schedule and helped me immensely along the way. I was able to see all of the homes I had picked as well as many others that fit my criteri...

— Ellen M.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

Hi John! I hadn't forgotten. Sorry it took me so long! Thank you for being such a great partner in our search! Hope you are well! A wise man once said "If it doesn't feel right, then we wait. We'll find the perfect one for you." We talked to countless realtor® over a number of years and none of them ever was the right one. Until we met John McCarthy. When I told him that I was hesitant to work with a rea...

— Robbynn P.

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

"John was a pleasure to work with. He made selling our home during a trying time easy and stress free. We appreciated his consistent communication and expertise regarding the market conditions and how they affected our home value. He worked hard to get our house amazing exposure and was able to sell it quickly at the best price possible. We would 100% use John again if the needs arise and would recomm...

— Chrissie & Jon B | Sellers - January, 2023

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

We met John via referral from a Realtor in Nashville, where we were moving to. John was very upfront with us the whole way. On the rare occasion of attempting to call him that we got his voicemail, we did not have to wait long for a response. We had many questions and John was patient and calmly answered each till we were satisfied. John is definitely a “Real Estate Professional.” He provided the ri...

Here’s What Some of My Clients Have Said:

We bought a house!!! Our buying process was a rollercoaster… from looking for months, to deciding to build and watching our home go up for months, to finding a different home and falling in love with it, to letting go of the house we were building and finally to purchasing a house we love, what a ride! I have to give a shout-out to our awesome realtor, John McCarthy !! He stuck with us for almost a whole...
