John Padgett was the best realtor I have ever had the experience of working with. Some realtors don’t truly care about their clients, however with John he truly does. He was always very respectful of what my goals were with selling my condo. He didn’t push for a sale just because there was an offer. John gave great advice and feedback. He was very knowledgeable, which helped tremendously being a first time seller. Even when I faced some hard times after an accident and had to pull the listing for a while. He checked in on my family and I, and not for the purpose of relisting my property, it was truly because he cared. When I was ready to relist he was my first phone call. If you want to be cared for, understood for what your goals are, and respected John Padgett is the only realtor I’d recommend.

John Padgett has been our agent since around 2018. He has always been there for us. From the purchase of our first home in 2019 to the sale of that home and purchase of our new home in 2024. The purchase of our recent investment property last month. We cannot say enough about John and his hard work he has done for us. As we continue on our rental investment road, he will always be the one we call upon. Thank you, John, The Booth

I found John by chance and I’m so glad I did! He was punctual, professional, knowledgeable and always attentive to my questions and concerns. As a single woman going through the home buying process, I found it difficult to find people I truly trusted. Some real estate agents, in my experience, are just out to sell any house as fast as possible and move on to the next client. John was the exception! I felt he had my best interest in mind even if it didn’t benefit him at all. He went above and beyond for me and my family. When I wasn’t able to attend a showing as I lived out of state, he would show my brother and parents properties and offered to check places out for me himself if they weren’t available. Don’t miss out on this diamond in a rough of an agent!

We had an excellent experience with John Padgett as our realtor! From day one, John matched us with a few properties that matched our needs and scheduled showings for us right away. He was excellent about communication and keeping us up to date with what was going on in the process. He met up with us for every tour and walkthrough of our new home and made sure to answer every question we had. He handled things behind the scenes on our behalf in a timely manner. We highly recommend using John as your realtor whether you are buying or selling, I know we will be reaching out to him again in the future!!

His deep knowledge of the local market in Myrtle Beach was invaluable, and I always felt that he had my best interests in mind. If you’re looking for a realtor who’s dedicated, knowledgeable, and truly committed to helping you find the perfect home, I highly recommend John Padgett. You won’t be disappointed!

John, had worked hard a few years ago showing us many properties and although it wound up not being the right time for us to buy. When it came time to sell our primary residence and move out of state I couldn’t think of anyone better suited for the job then John Padgett. John had the house sold in one week and there were a lot of issues that had to be worked out with the buyers. John kept his patience throughout the whole process and basically salvaged the deal when we thought it was dead. House closed, everyone happy! Thanks John!

John did a fantastic job working with us. John showed us quite a few homes about a year ago, spending many hours with us on our search for a home. Unfortunately our home did not sell until recently. We came back down to Conway, SC and he worked with us again until we found a home. Great realtor and very professional. Would highly recommend him.

John is Amazing. He helped us purchase our first place in Surfside around 5 years ago. He went above a and beyond for us on that purchase. Fast forward 5 years later he helped us with the sale of that place and the purchase of our new home. Once again he did more for us than we could every ask for. We think of John as a true friend now and he will be our Realtor for any other purchases and I recommend him to everyone that ask for a Realtor in that area. Thank you John Darrel & Kathryn

John contacted me after so many other realtors had tried. He was not pushy, didn’t promise me he would get whatever I wanted...practical, realistic and frankly was very honest with me. He was very responsive and got back to me quickly. I have dealt with a lot of realtors in my time and I would easily put him in the top two...and that is probably out of about 20.
