Hi! It’s great to meet you. Growing up I used to LOVE going to open houses with my Mom, but it wasn’t until I went through the home buying process myself that I realized how overwhelming it could be and how important it was to have a knowledgeable guide. I never anticipated how proud I would be of myself, and how powerful I would feel purchasing my own home. I want to help other people do that. I love Philadelphia. I’ve watched her grow over the years into a world-class city with a huge personality, uniquely her own. How lucky are we to live in a city with such a variety of distinctly different neighborhoods to explore? I want to share it all!
She was communicative, the consummate professional, and a fantastic advocate for us throughout the process of building and buying this amazing home.
With Rachel’s help, we found a great house, in a neighborhood we like that fit our needs and our moving schedule.
When we faced (multiple) unexpected challenges in the process, Rachel was there to explain what to do next, what options we had, and to keep us focused on the end goal.
My partner and I are detail-oriented people. We did our own independent research, ran thorough comparisons, and came in with very specific goals and a clear strategy. Rachel didn’t just accommodate that, she embraced it. She took the time to fully understand what we were trying to accomplish, and everything she did was in service of that.
Our initial interview left us with no doubt that she was the one to guide us; she took the time to listen to our story, helped us formulate a reasonable timeline, and was incredibly sensitive to the emotional undertones of selling our home of 40 years.
What could have been an overwhelming process ended up being incredibly smooth. I felt very supported throughout, and am grateful for Rachel's attention to detail and responsiveness throughout the journey.
Rachel was so helpful in the home buying process and made everything easy to understand for first time home buyers. She always had our best interest in mind and gave thorough answers to all our questions.
My partner and I worked with Rachel Shaw to buy our first home, and she made the entire process feel approachable, unintimidating, and even exciting (when we expected it to be stressful)!
What I appreciated most was the complete lack of pressure. Rachel truly felt like a partner. When we were excited, she was excited with us. At the same time, she was a grounded and honest guide who brought thoughtful real talk to every conversation.
She was responsive, knowledgeable, and informative for my first time home buying process
