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!
Rachel Shaw was absolutely amazing to work with for the sale of my home in Philly, while I now live out of state.
We are so lucky to have Rachel Shaw of Philly Home Girls as our realtor, especially since we are out-of-town buyers. She guided us skillfully and patiently for a rare gem in the city.
She was always available and gave me honest, detailed responses and suggestions. And when 2 weeks before closing I was told (while abroad) that I needed concrete work done before the town would allow the sale- Rachel got me quotes and scheduled the work for me so I didn’t even miss a step on my vacation.
There were so many moving parts with both home and Rachel was on top of everything, helping explain things to us, and guide us every step of the way. She was always easy to talk to, gave it to us straight, and helped us weigh big decisions with confidence.
She really made the process manageable and understandable and our house sale closed 2 months after we initially went on market.
She was referred by a friend, and from our first meeting, she took the time to understand our interests and made us feel comfortable and confident every step of the way.
Her negotiation skills and market knowledge made all the difference, ensuring the client got the home he wanted at a great price. If you're looking for a realtor who is not only skilled but also genuinely cares about their clients, I highly recommend Rachel Shaw.
Rachel has been doing this a long time, and has incredible insight on what types of updates to consider/prioritize that will increase the value and interest in the house (which was very helpful for me because my house needed some major refreshing, but with a very tight budget)
She never pressured me to make any rushed decisions and always had my best interests in mind. Lastly, Rachel is very supportive. Sometimes the home search process can be overwhelming, nerve-wracking, and even discouraging. But Rachel always maintained an optimistic attitude that helped encourage me to keep on the journey.
When the inspections revealed some issues we weren't anticipating, she negotiated a great deal to get the sellers to resolve the issues at their expense and still get us the house we wanted without even having to move the closing date.
