I'm a full-time REALTOR with Samson Properties serving Southern Maryland with more than 30 years of experience. I was born and raised in Prince George's County and now call Lusby home, which means I've watched this region grow and evolve for decades. That long-term local knowledge gives my clients a real advantage whether they're buying, selling, or investing.
I serve buyers, sellers, and investors throughout Calvert, Charles, and St. Mary's Counties, with particular expertise in waterfront properties, investment opportunities, homes with ADUs, and new construction. Whether your client is a first-time buyer, a move-up buyer, or an investor looking to build long-term wealth through real estate, I provide straightforward guidance and reliable results backed by decades of experience.
As a Certified Residential Appraiser, I offer a level of valuation and pricing insight that most agents simply can't match. My appraisal background helps sellers price strategically from day one and helps buyers understand true market value before they make an offer. In a market where pricing can make or break a deal, that expertise is a real differentiator.
I'm also a retired police officer, and that background in public service shaped my commitment to honesty, integrity, and protecting my clients' best interests. I created the HeroSave10 program to give back to the people who serve our communities. When military members, law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMS professionals, or first responders buy or sell a home with me, they receive 10% of my earned commission as a credit at closing.
My approach is rooted in clear communication, transparency, and doing what's right, even when it's not the easiest path. I'm looking for clients who value trust, respect, and making decisions based on facts. The best results happen when we work as a team.
If you have a client headed to Southern Maryland, I'd be honored to take great care of them. They'll get a 30-year veteran with appraiser-level pricing expertise, a first-responder's integrity, and a commitment to straightforward, honest service from first conversation to closing.
"We had an amazing experience working with John when purchasing our new Lennar home. He walked us through every step, answered all of our questions quickly, and made sure we understood everything before making decisions. He truly cared about helping us find the right home, not just making a sale."
"John was a fantastic buyer's agent who went above and beyond. His deep understanding of the market and his honest, no-pressure approach made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. He was always available to answer questions and advocate for my best interests."
"John's expertise and work ethic made my last home purchase a breeze. I'd highly recommend him for both purchasing and selling your home."
When you refer a client to me, they're getting a 30-year veteran with appraiser-level pricing expertise and a retired law enforcement officer's commitment to integrity. If your client is military, first responder, or law enforcement, they'll benefit from my HeroSave10 program, receiving 10% of my commission as a credit at closing. Your client will be well taken care of, and you'll have a referral partner who does what's right every time.
I'm known for clear communication, attention to detail, and being readily available to answer questions and provide guidance. Clients say I walk them through every step and make sure they understand everything before making decisions. I keep both clients and referring agents fully informed so the process feels smooth and transparent from start to finish.
