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!
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
She is truly dedicated to making her client's lives easier, and it made the whole homebuying process 10x less stressful. She also has a wealth of reliable connections (lenders, inspectors, different types of contractors, etc), so it wasn't just her side of the equation that went smoothly.
She also has knowledge of home construction and was able to point out details that I couldn't see in the various houses I looked at. She answered all my questions in a timely manner-- even the silly ones.
Everyone at Philly Home Girls, but especially Rachel, were so incredibly helpful and professional during the process of buying our first home.
Rachel worked tirelessly on a Sunday evening to get my offer in so that I was under contract before the sellers could even schedule an open house! She also negotiated the max amount of seller’s assist I could receive under my loan terms, and was with me every step of the way through closing.
Rachel was understanding, communicative, and knowledgeable when it came to touring houses.
My partner and I were relatively new to Philly but Rachel was able to guide us and make recommendations that made it easy to understand the neighborhoods we were looking in. She was also very flexible with scheduling and overall made the home buying process very approachable.
Just closed on our second property with Philly Home Girls and can’t say enough good things about Rachel and the rest of the team! Rachel made the whole process easy, breezy— from the beginning of our search right up till closing.
