Laconia, NH According to Roche Realty Group, Inc., Kevin Shaw produced more than $13.5 million in sales volume for 2015, a 73% increase over his $7.8 million volume for 2014. Shaw was the top producer in sales and rental income for 2015 and 2014.When asked about his plan for 2015 and how he achieved this Shaw explained that the key to his success is teamwork and having a good base of people around him, including other Realtors, staff, finance people, and closing companies.

Shaw said, “We don’t necessarily sell homes; homes sell themselves. A good agent will listen to their clients and find out what their wants and needs are. The reward of being a Realtor is seeing their client happy in a home that fits their family and lifestyle perfectly.”

Shaw commented on what an amazing experience it was, “The film crew came to the Lakes Region for a week in July to shoot on three different lakes, and at many well-known Lakes Region attractions. They did a great job showcasing what an amazing area we live in. The show will be out sometime in spring.”

Frank Roche, president of Roche Realty Group, said, “Kevin’s been in the business since 2000 and has been one of the top 5 agents at Roche Realty the past 6 years. His hard work has paid off where he’s now one of the top producers in the Lakes Region.”

Shaw was born and raised in the Lakes Region with a comprehensive knowledge of the topography of the region and Lake Winnipesaukee. Shaw has coached soccer and baseball in Gilford across the middle school and high school levels. He is an avid skier, swimmer and loves sports and boating.
