Mark & Connie MaytumBuyer·October 2026★★★★★John leaves no stone unturned. He not only helped us ding our new home but walked us through the process and explained each and every step. And when listing our current home, did everything you would expect from your listing agent. John is the man in Lake Norman!
John Antolini★★★★★September 2026John was very responsive, worked with all parties to get multiple deals done. He has been great to work with on the buy and sell side. I highly recommend working with John and his team.
Bill Woelpper★★★★★August 2026John is always very professional in his approach to selling/buying homes. He knows the market and listens to what you're looking for in a home purchase. We spent over a year looking for the perfect property (I was very particular in what I wanted) and John never wavered trying to find the setup I wanted. After the purchase, he followed up to ensure everything all was right.
Roosevelt & Crystal Barrett Jr★★★★★July 2026John was great to work with. From the first day when we met until our home was sold, he was very communicative and kept us up to speed on the process. His marketing is incredible and our house was under contract a few days after the open house. We were very pleased with the hold process.
Crystal Barrett★★★★★July 2026From start to finish, working with John was an absolute pleasure! He stayed completely on top of every detail and made the whole experience seamless. Anyone looking for a new home would be lucky to have him.
Walter Osteen★★★★★July 2026John was fantastic for my wife and I! We originally met him at a showing 6 months prior and even then told him when we came to a decision it would be a quick acquisition! He is a great communicator and even randomly checks in 3 months after the deal has closed! He always worked for US and made it happen. He partners with amazing closing attorneys that even changed the deal to cash literally last minute! Thank you John you will always have my recommendation!
★★★★July 2026John’s work continued after he closed the sale. Checked in with us regularly and referred us to many tradesmen and services as we requested.
★★★★★July 2026John communicated efficiently and handled all of our many questions with respect. He was honest and forthcoming throughout the entire process.
Kristin Doherty★★★★★July 2026We are so grateful to have had John Somers by our side throughout our journey from New York to North Carolina. What started as a home search turned into a multi-year process as our family’s needs and plans evolved, and John was there every step of the way with endless patience, understanding, and encouragement. He never rushed us or made us feel pressured to make a decision. Instead, he took the time to truly listen to what was important to our family and remained committed to helping us find the right home! His knowledge, honesty, attention to detail, and genuine care gave us confidence through every stage of the process. Relocating to another state can be overwhelming, but John made it so much easier. Thanks to his dedication and perseverance, we found the perfect place to start this exciting new chapter in North Carolina. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor or advocate. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond, we wholeheartedly recommend John Somers. He is simply the best! -Kristin and Sean Doherty
Judy Nahay★★★★★May 2026My husband and I recently put our lake lot on the market. We worked with John Somers and I could not have been more pleased. From the moment I saw the video that John made featuring our lot, I was positive that we had the right person as our realtor. There was an issue that needed addressing and John worked diligently to help resolve the issue. John helped to make every step of the sale easier and I would definitely recommend him. If you’re in need of a realtor… give John Somers at Lake Norman Realty a call.

Cheryl Bustle★★★★★January 2026John is the best. He helped this little family that had recently lost husband/father/grandfather and had no experience in real estate. We trusted him and he guided us with the utmost integrity, expertise and patience. We now have a home we love and we are very grateful to John.
Gary and Ashley Kehoe★★★★★November 2025John Somers started out as a real estate agent we called to help us find a home, and we now consider him a trusted neighbor of ours who we would go out our way to help if he ever needed something. Exceptional customer service, respectful and personable, with a strong knowledge of the area and a diligent approach to the real estate process.... we really enjoyed working with John. Thanks!
Fares Jones★★★★★May 2025Agent John Somers, is very good at what he does! He helps me in every way possible he can with patience and knowledge. Even offered to help me to get all the utility information from the seller for me. So I don’t have to make multiple phone calls which utilities company my property under. And even we already closed the deal for the property. John constantly will still remind me that I can still ask him about anything if I have any concerns or issues with the property that I just bought. John Somers and the company is very efficient and knowledgeable with their business and company! Definitely a huge thumbs up 👍🏻 and most definitely recommendable. Thank you so much and God Bless!!💚🙏

Melissa Booe★★★★★January 2025John Somers was my realtor, he was so awesome to work with! From day 1 he let me know he was going to find me the perfect house and get the best price for my current house. John did not disappoint, he communicated so well about the process and made sure that I presented all the necessary paperwork that was needed. Offered several times to help me with packing, moving, etc. When my closing was delayed(no fault of his)he helped me reschedule movers, utilities. He is so kind and caring. Lake Norman Realty is lucky to have him! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to buy and sell with him!

The qualities that are always most important to success remain the same: honesty, integrity, knowledge, experience, fairness, and attention to detail. Master those, and you are sure to stand out in any market! I have to say....I cherry picked John from his experience! He is truly the 'Best' agent I have ever had the opportunity to experience. His expertise in the real estate market are 💯! Sold my house in 1 day. John completely went out of his way to help me better understand the market.

I will refer him to anyone in the market to sale their home! I truly can't say enough about him! Angela Kennington
