Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2024 in Wood streets, Riverside, CA.
I recently lost my husband and needed to sell my home and buy a new one. It was a really difficult time for me. John and Rhonda went above and beyond to help me find a home so I felt safe. They helped me get my home of 18 years ready to sell and when I say they did more than most would do I mean it. They did all this while being completely sensitive to me and my situation. I feel so lucky to have worked with both them. I got a great deal on the home I bought and took home more money than I expected with the sell of my house. I 1000% recommend them to help you with your home buying or selling.

The whole process of selling our home was amazing and went so smoothly. John and Rhonda took the utmost care from beginning to end and were in touch with us every step of the way. This was truly a premiere experience and we would reach out to John for any future needs buying or selling.

John and Rhonda were phenomenal throughout the entire process of helping my partner and I in purchasing our first home. Due to us being first time buyers, we felt extremely lost at first and had no idea where to begin. John and Rhonda made us feel confident throughout the process by guiding us, constantly checking in on us, and by getting to know us and really understanding what we were looking for in a home. We wouldn’t have found our dream home without their help and we really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much for everything, John and Rhonda!

We contacted John and Rhonda in February of this year to prepare to sell our house. We selected them because they had sold more houses in our area than any other agent. They provided excellent service from the very beginning! They helped us with the entire process, from identifying and prioritizing the work we would do to prepare our house, to helping us find contractors to do the work, to the finalization of the work, listing, and sale. John has an amazing amount of energy and enthusiasm! He was very diligent and in every detail of this process. We couldn't be more pleased and grateful for his excellent, professional help! When we found our new home in June, everything switched into high gear. We went from planning to execution. John met the challenge, and exceeded our expectations. He was consistently responsive and helpful, especially when we hit the inevitable snags and problems. Escrow closed on our new home in July before we were ready to list our house. So, we moved to our new home in a different area and had to rely on John to handle everything. Again, he did an outstanding job! Our photos and listing turned out amazing. He conducted multiple open houses. His well-planned efforts generated immediate interest, and we accepted an offer above our listing price within days - despite a market that was slowing due to interest rate hikes, and despite multiple other listings in our immediate area that hadn't generated any offers. He guided us through the contract and the escrow process, and we closed escrow early! I've had experience with multiple other agents in the past. My experience with John exceeds all the others. His expertise, wholehearted and consistent effort, and kind thoughtfulness took so much stress out of the process, and led to a result that exceeded our expectations. Thank you, John, for a job well done!

John and Rhonda were amazing to work with. Their attention to detail in getting our house listed was incredible. Great, honest people that want the best for you and your family! Thanks for two smooth transactions!

Thanks, John & Rhonda, for making the sale of our home an enjoyable and profitable experience!

We sold our home in the summer of 2021 and we had a great experience with John and Rhonda Shakelford. They communicated with us every step of the way and were very knowledgeable about the market, our neighborhood, and what it would take to get top dollar for our home. They are tech savvy and always responded to texts or calls promptly. They advertised out home via the internet, on television and with printed materials, and our home sold very quickly. We couldn't have had a smoother home-selling experience and we highly recommend them to either a buyer or seller. They are excellent realtors and I would work with them again in a heartbeat.

He listened to my requests and offered excellent advice. He worked hard to get the best selling price on my home with sensible improvements . Very professional and easy to talk to. I would recommend him to any of my friends and family to help them with their home buying or selling needs.

John and Rhonda were absolutely amazing during the whole process. We started looking when the market was at its peak. We placed so many offers before we finally bought our home. I had given up, but John kept us going. He had patience with us, and was always on top of it with communication. He always answered all of our questions and was realistic with todays market. I could keep going on how great they were. I would highly recommend them to anyone that’s in the market. You won’t regret it! Terrific realtor!

I would definitely recommend John Shackelford if you are looking for an experienced realtor to sell or purchase a home. John and his wife Rhonda met with me and walked my property and helped give me welcomed suggestions to update some outdated décor before listing. I was so impressed by their professional marketing, photography, brochures and personal showings even in the midst of COVID-19. John was always available to answer any questions and give helpful information. And John sold my home in 2 weeks!

Had a really great experience using John and Rhonda to sell a property in Riverside. They provided great advice on getting the property into a presentable state, and provided cost-effective options to help. The marketing material was first class and once on the market, the property sold the first weekend with multiple offers over the asking price. They were very supportive in completing the subsequent paperwork and the deal closed on time. A first class experience. Would thoroughly recommend them.

John did an absolutely amazing job for us. He sold our home quickly and for much more than we had anticipated. He is honest, upfront and knowledgeable about every aspect of real estate. I would highly recommend him!

John was amazing. Guided us completely in both selling and buying another home. He is very professional and thinks of everything. He answered any questions that we had. He helped us in the staging of our home for sale. The marketing was incredible. He is the best!

John and his wife Rhonda helped us sell our home of 30 years in just a matter of days. The sale was posted on a Friday afternoon and by Monday we had multiple offers and most over the asking price. Their direction staging the house and small fix ups before going on the market really helped move the property along quickly.

They were very patient with us and answered our questions honestly and without any undue pressure. They helped us closely going through escrow process never did they leave hanging and made themselves available at any given time.
