Your Central NC Real Estate Expert

Meet Johnny Petrozelle

Johnny Petrozelle is a licensed REALTOR and Broker with Oak Leaf Properties of NC — and he brings a background you won't find in most agents. Born into a family with deep roots in both real estate and professional motorsports, Johnny grew up learning the business from the inside out, working in the office as a kid before stepping into the field himself. He earned his broker license in 2009 at just 19 years old and has been committed to real estate full-time ever since.

When it comes to selling your home, Johnny outworks the competition on every front. He combines professional-grade media with aggressive digital marketing to put your property in front of more buyers than anyone else in the market — more views, more showings, more offers. From high-quality listing photos and targeted online campaigns to open house events and offline outreach, every home Johnny lists gets a full-court press. His deep background in REO properties, investment deals, rentals, and flips — hundreds of transactions across Davidson, Randolph, and Stanly County — means he also understands value, pricing, and what it takes to close.

What truly sets Johnny apart is the mindset he brings from the racetrack. The same competitive spirit, precision, and relentless drive that fueled his motorsports career now power every transaction he takes on. Real estate, like racing, rewards preparation, strategy, and the will to win — and Johnny applies all three on behalf of every client. His ultimate goal is simple: leave every buyer and seller feeling like they received a 5-star experience.
