About Avery

Hi, I'm Avery —
Your Upside-Down Realtor

I got into real estate because I believe finding the right home should feel exciting, not overwhelming. Whether you're buying your first place, trading up for mountain views, or selling to start the next chapter — I'm here to make it smooth, honest, and maybe even a little fun.

They call me the Handstanding Realtor for good reason: I approach every deal from every angle. I flip perspectives, spot opportunities others miss, and never stop working until you're standing — right-side up — in the home of your dreams.

Rooted in New Mexico, I specialize in the unique beauty of Southwest living: from sun-drenched adobes with vigas and terracotta tile to foothills retreats with Sandia Mountain views. I'm proud to hang my license with The Shaffer Realty Group, a team built on trust, expertise, and going above and beyond.

What Clients Are Saying

"

5 stars plus! What a superb experience we had with our realtor, Avery Johnson, who now we consider a great friend! He is professional, knowledgeable, dedicated, friendly and determined to get you the house you want. We can not say enough good things about Avery — hire him as your realtor!!

"

We had a wonderful experience working with Avery Johnson at the Shaffer Group! As first time home buyers, we went into the process unsure of what to expect, but Avery was knowledgeable, patient, and supportive throughout. Thanks to Avery's guidance, we found and closed on our amazing first home, and we couldn't be happier. We would absolutely recommend Avery to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive realtor.

"

Avery did an outstanding job representing us with the sale of our prior home & the purchase of our new home. He is knowledgeable, personable & ready to help with whatever is necessary to proceed as smoothly as possible. We would not hesitate in recommending Avery to anyone we know who could benefit from his talents!

"

Without any doubt Avery Johnson and his team are beyond the call of duty. I have bought and sold 14 homes nationwide — I have seen the good, bad, and ugly — however I have never worked with a young man with his dedication, hustle, and never-surrender attitude. Really an unbelievable human being that I will forever cherish. Think about this: he sold the home twice — to the first people who previewed the property — after the first family could not close. Truly just an incredible experience I will take to my grave.

"

Five stars — the knowledge, patience, understanding and just general niceness of this group is unmatched. We worked with this group twice in the last 4 years and have had lovely experiences with both of the agents we worked with: Ashley and Avery.
