I cannot recommend Shaun enough as a realtor. He recently helped us to sell our townhome and…read morepurchase a larger house in preparation of welcoming our third child. From Day 1, he was incredibly responsive, detail oriented and truly cared about what was best for our family, not the quickest deal. He led us step by step through the listing and staging process, handled an open house and eliminated so much stress that can otherwise come from moving. For our home search, he suggested listings, showed up to properties with us and recommended an excellent inspector, electrician, and we closed quickly. It's easy to offer Shaun to anyone in the area looking to buy or sell. We were truly blessed to work with him and should we ever need to move again, he'll be my first call.

I'm a happy home owner because of Shaun…read more I lived in DC for 20 years before deciding that I wanted to buy a place. And since I use Yelp for everything else, I decided to see what the People said about realtors in the area. As you can see, Shaun has a lot of fans. I loved what people had to say about him but it was really the video on his website that convinced me to set up a call with him. Hearing Shaun talk about where he grew up, how he ended up in DC and how he runs his business seemed almost too good to be true. But he's the real deal. Shaun wants to help you find your perfect place more than he wants to just sell you a house. Since I was doing this completely on my own it was important to me that I felt comfortable with my realtor. And while I took friends on a couple showings, in the end it was Shaun that helped me figure out which place was right for me. He would gently point out things that maybe I didn't notice or tell me when something wasn't as big of a deal as I thought. When I tried to talk myself into something he would remind me of the reoccurring dream I had about more space and how maybe XX wasn't a good fit if that was still important to me. I was on the fence about whether I wanted to leave the District. I ended up buying in DC but Shaun did a good job showing me all around Old Town. He'd listen to what I liked and didn't like and then adjust what we would look at the next time And while I'm going to be a city mouse a while longer, I made him promise that when the time comes he will help me sell my current place and buy the next one -- I'm eyeing the Parker-Gray area. Lastly Shaun has a guy for everything. Need a lender, Shaun's gotta guy. Need an electrician, gotta guy. Inspector, check. And this network is just as solid as Shaun. His network walked me through everything as a first time home buyer. I hear people talk about how hard it is to buy a place and honestly that wasn't my experience, at all. Clearly buying a place isn't like picking a happy hour spot but once again Yelp pointed me in the right direction. I love my place and finding and buying it was a really great experience because of Shaun. If I could give him 10 stars and 2 energy drinks, I would.

Jin helped my family sell their single family home in Chantilly, and they were super happy to have…read moremet and worked with her after receiving a recommendation of her services. She was helpful and on top of everything. It was great to have open communication and lots of access for their questions and concerns. Every time they had questions, she was responsive and available. Her knowledge about the market and the selling process was valuable and informative. Given all of the steps of selling, Jin stayed so involved and had good relationships with other service providers as well, like cleaners and movers. She was present for the walk-through and settlement with my family, and she attended every meeting with the new home builders. That kind of presence and hands-on involvement was so important and something that can't be taken for granted, because other agents do not have that level of care. For any future inquiries, my family is happy to recommend her services.

We don't usually leave negative reviews, but our experience with our former landlord and real…read moreestate agent, Jin Wickwire, unfortunately ended on a very disappointing note. While the home-buying process itself was smooth, our move-out experience was the complete opposite. As a family with young children, we were repeatedly questioned and made to feel uncomfortable over normal wear and tear......things like minor drywall nicks that are expected in any home with kids. These were already being addressed on our end with a contractor, as we had communicated. Despite agreeing to cover repairs and forfeit a $3,000 deposit, we were met with unnecessary comments and a level of aggression that felt unprofessional and unwarranted. It was especially disappointing given that we chose to work with her over many other options, expecting a level of trust and respect in return. We believe in accountability and were fully willing to take care of any legitimate damages....but respect and professionalism should go both ways. Based on this experience, we would not recommend doing business with Jin.

Philippa is wonderful and the best realtor I have ever dealt with. I needed someone familiar with…read moretrusts and successor trustees and she met all the criteria. She had a superb "selling your home guide" that had her personal experience as well as how the home would be marketed and including tips on moving. She started with numerous open houses and provided feedback on those as well as on individual appointments. The real good news on all that was the feedback she provided from buyer's realtors which enabled real time adjustments as needed. Her communication throughout the entire process was flawless and timely. And her responsiveness to my numerous inquiries was almost immediate. Would highly recommend her to everyone selling a house in Falls Church or Northern Virginia. You will not be disappointed and you will be thankful you hired her!

She assisted my brother and me with the sale of our parents' home in April 2022. I have worked with many real estate professionals on several transactions over the years and can say with confidence that Philippa is one of the best I have ever used. Philippa has the qualities that make her an extremely successful and effective agent. We found her extremely knowledgeable and well-attuned to the super fast-changing market of early 2022. She was always attentive to our concerns and very responsive to questions, often responding immediately no matter the time. She showed great attention to detail enabling the sale to be made in less than a week. Our mother had recently passed away and we were raw with grief. Furthermore, we live in California, so it was even more important that we could rely on someone like Philippa to take the reins from beginning to end and that is exactly what she did. She was able to interpret and solve all the questions pertaining to our mother's Trust without the need for outside lawyers, and this was a great convenience to us. We also feel that we got the highest price possible for the house based on her pricing strategy and advice. Philippa exceeded our expectations in every way. The sale went very smoothly and we closed on time. I would not hesitate to recommend Philippa to anyone in need of a listing agent or for the purchase of a home. We interviewed three other agents before deciding on Philippa and she did not disappoint. Every detail was perfect, from the fantastic professional photos, the listing description, to the impeccable transactional aspects leading to the close of escrow. In a nutshell, she is a top tier professional, intelligent, tenacious, fun and talkative, bright and conscientious. If you need an agent/broker then hire Philippa Main. You won't be disappointed.

We were happy with her attention to detail, so when we were ready to move again, we didn't hesitate to go with her again. This time she helped us find our new home, and sell our old one.

She helped us with a smooth transition with the sale of our old home, as well as, the closing on the new one. We highly recommend Claudia for your home buying or selling needs!

Having an agent respond at a timely manner is what keeps this industry moving. Kenneth has been great in both transactions. We received the ratified contracts and got the job done! I have no complaints about his quality of work and would instead praise his attention to detail. Kenneth also does not focus on the commission and leave/disappear after the closing. We had a post-closing issue on whether the sellers had taken bricks from the property. Kenneth took it upon himself (after the seller's agent and seller would not replace the bricks or pay for them) to go to home depot and replace the bricks himself. Furthermore, he has been very accommodating on meeting times and location. He makes it so working with him is easy and flexible. I HIGHLY recommend Kenneth Wang as a realtor in all of DMV area!

She gave us recommendations to maximize curb appeal with her stylish eye, stepped in to refer general contractors and project managed the entire process. The house looked amazing when it listed!

We strongly recommend Dawn and her services. She's definitely a gem of a realtor!

I've had the pleasure of using Dawn for both buying and selling a home and I could not recommend…read moreher more. We first used Dawn 15 years ago when we were first time home buyers. Dawn was recommended because my wife and I were a little indecisive and could not decide between Virginia and Maryland. Since she's licensed in both Virginia and Maryland, she was able to show us houses in both states; she must have shown us 50 houses. Once we found our home, Dawn guided us through the entire process from bidding through closing. Dawn patiently explained every form we signed and every step and every option we had until we closed on the house. We could not have asked for a better teacher than Dawn for our first home buying experience. Later, we finally were ready to move up to a bigger home and Dawn again came through for us. We found a house we liked and asked Dawn to help us buy it. Offers were required quickly and Dawn immediately found us a mortgage specialist who could get us a pre-approval letter for the offer. We had a weekend and Dawn was able to put together the winning offer on the house that weekend. After we moved, it was time to sell our old townhouse and we were blown away with Dawn's expertise in selling. We hadn't updated the house at all and we were behind on maintenance, but Dawn helped us put together a plan to get the best price for our house. She created a list of improvements we could do that were cost effective; picking out all the furnishing and fixtures to maximize our selling price. She found a general contractor to do all the updates and kept us abreast of their progress. She also guided us through Compass Concierge so we didn't have to pay immediately for any of the improvements. After construction was done, she helped us find cleaners to clean the house and a staging company to stage the house. The house was completely unrecognizable; it looked like something out of HGTV. We sold within a weekend, 25K over our asking price. We were so pleased that we also recommended her to my parents to sell my grandfather's house. She worked her magic and transformed the stale 1980's interior into a modern interior. There was a bidding war and my grandfather's house sold for 90K over asking. My aunts and mom cannot stop raving about her. Whether buying or selling a house, I cannot recommend Dawn more.
