Find An Agent Who Knows Your Neighborhood Best
Denise Lewis
Denise Lewis, born and raised in Philadelphia, is no stranger to community. She has been investing in properties since the 90’s, which aids her in working with investors and renters alike. She’s also an avid community volunteer; every Thanksgiving she helps feed the community, she educates seniors on housing programs and assist them on attaining home repair, and she lends her expertise to those looking to purchase through credit repair programs, saving, and credit building. Denise took all of these passions and joined Common Ground after getting her real estate license in 2021.
Marshall Johnston
Like almost every other agent, Marshall was born and raised in West Philadelphia. Marshall is an lgbtq+ friendly realtor who has a passion for making housing more equitable and affordable in Philadelphia. Marshall sees home ownership as the key to establishing generational wealth and believes everyone should have an opportunity to become a homeowner. Whether you have issues with credit or down payments, or even if you’re just testing the waters to see what’s out there, he’ll be happy to help you in your journey to becoming a homeowner.

Karmen Fails
Unlike most of the agents at Common Ground, Karmen was NOT born in Philadelphia. A Columbus, OH native, she found her way to Philadelphia by attending University of the Arts as a dance major. Through life’s shifts and circumstance, she found herself in the sales field which led her to real estate through rental leasing. Now 20 years in the field, Karmen has worked as a Property Manager – from luxury high rises to sprawled out rental communities – and as a Trainer and Operations Manager. In 2015 she left the corporate world behind and became a real estate agent, where she then joined Common Ground. A wearer of many hats, Karmen serves Common Ground as its Property Manager, as a Realtor, and as an Office Manager.
John Bradham
Charleston born and Philadelphia raised, John Bradham has been with Common Ground Realtors since 2006. A veteran of the Army branch, John provides a no-nonsense, numbers-based approach to deals that makes him a highly sought-after agent, especially with investor clients.
