About John

With professionalism, integrity, and personal attention, John Merriman helps clients feel confident in every decision.
John Merriman Raleigh, NC Real Estate Agent Headshot

John Merriman

I was born and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina, and earned my Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington in 1990. Shortly after, I began my career with DVL Financial, a New York Stock Exchange company, working in their real estate division. Four years later, I returned home to Raleigh and joined York Properties’ residential division in 1994. Over the years, York Properties evolved through mergers—first with Simpson and Underwood, REALTORS® in 2001 to become York Simpson Underwood, and later with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Carolinas Realty in 2008, forming Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices York Simpson Underwood Realty.

Since 1990, I have proudly dedicated my entire career to helping buyers and sellers achieve their real estate goals—all with the same trusted company. For more than two decades, I have consistently ranked among the Triangle’s leading real estate professionals and have been recognized by the Triangle Business Journal as one of the “Top 25 Residential Agents in the Triangle.” With deep market knowledge, proven expertise, and an unwavering commitment to client service, I strive to make every real estate experience successful and rewarding.

"John is helping me make an unknown journey to a better way of life. I was so sad and broken by the passing of my sweetheart, I could not take good care of myself. Now, I'm beginning to recover and John has kept me moving in that direction. His understanding of the documents needed to make my possession of Sheila's house, car, all accounts at her bank, and the stocks complete and legal. I could have never done that alone. But he did it for me. And he never violated the reverence of her gifts. Thank you, John Merriman."
