About John May

John May has called Austin home since 1996, but his story starts on the Gulf Coast, growing up in Houston and spending his formative years in Galveston chasing waves and weather. When he landed in Austin, he did what entrepreneurs do: built something from nothing, launching a staffing franchise that taught him the principle he still lives by today, take care of people the right way, and everything else works itself out.

On July 31, 2002, John got his real estate license and it changed the direction of his life. It wasn't about chasing a paycheck. It was about finding work that fit the way his mind operates, solving problems, understanding people, and being the calm voice in a high-stakes situation.

John watched Austin transform from a mid-size college town into one of the most competitive real estate markets in the country, and he stayed through every cycle. During that tenure he has built relationships over decades. John knows this city not just as a professional, but as someone who helped shape it and was shaped by it in return.

If you're looking for an agent who leads with experience, operates with integrity, and keeps his head when things get complicated, John May is your guy.
