He promptly thinks of and attends to every detail making working with him a pure delight. Brian has a great depth of experience. We have benefited immensely from his wise counsel about how to approach a bidding situation and what to look out for when you are considering a new house. He is equally excellent at guiding you to the best outcome when he is helping you sell a house. We would never think of going to anyone else for real estate support in the DC area. In addition, he is a delightful person who is a joy to be with.

What can I say about working with Brian? If you wished you had a realtor that makes you feel like…read moreyour their only client, that's Brian. I started out selling a property with Brian and before I closed on that sale, he helped me and my wife buy our new house. Every time we reached out to talk or to ask questions, he was readily available. We also appreciated his thoughtfulness about our concerns and his ability to explain his approach and strategy. I bought my first property with Brian 8 years ago and was so satisfied with working with him that I made sure to sell that same property with him when the time came. Between that long gap of time, Brian made himself available to me to help me consider making decisions about selling over the years. But I never felt pushed to sell, which is important because many realtors may see the potential payday and persuade you that way. I am so glad I stayed in contact him and took his advice on things to consider. If I had sold when I first thought to I would have left almost $100k on the table. Thanks to Brian I was able to think through why it made sense in my particular situation to wait a bit. Thinking about our experience buying our house in DC and selling our condo with Brian, I can't imagine that many realtors could handle a simultaneous sale and purchase with clients overseas and do it so competently as Brian did. #realtorforlife

Working with Barak Sky and the SkyGroup was an absolutely incredible experience from start to…read morefinish. I cannot recommend Barak or his team highly enough. As an active-duty military member relocating from Omaha, Nebraska to Washington, D.C., I needed a real estate team that understood both the complexities of VA benefits and the tight timelines of a cross-country move. Barak and his team exceeded every expectation with professionalism, empathy, and precision. From our very first interaction, Barak made us feel like family--it was as if a big brother and his close friends were personally invested in helping us find our home. He personally attended about 75-80% of all activities, picked us up from the airport twice, and spent four full days walking us through 35 homes across two visits. When our first two offers fell through, he went above and beyond, touring seven additional properties for us on his own. The SkyGroup, proudly affiliated with Serhant--the renowned brokerage featured on Netflix and Bravo--truly delivers a concierge-level experience. They connected us with trusted lenders, inspectors, designers, and contractors, ensuring every detail was covered. Responsive, knowledgeable, and never pushy, Barak and his team always put our best interests first. They are simply exceptional and set the standard for real estate service in the DMV.

When you read this review you're probably going to think that my realtor Leslie Friedson paid me to…read morewrite it. She did not! But here's what the Friedson Group did for me: Leslie is a consummate professional. She's a closer. She knows the real estate business inside-out and manages to read buyers and sellers like a great marriage counselor; except everybody wins. She sold me my first house 18 years ago in an incredibly tough market were there were 12 other bids, all way above asking price. She got me that house for $20,000 LESS than asking price. Yes, less. Leslie's team and fabulous sidekick Tyler helped my son buy a very cool house in Silver Spring. The inspector she works with helped my son avoid a house with serious flooding issues that would have cost $60,000 to mitigate before even moving in. Her mortgage broker got him a great rate. After my daughter had spent months looking for a house with other real estate agencies who gave her shady advice on prices and contracts, I strongly recommended Leslie. She found my daughter the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood and worked tirelessly to help her put in a bid that worked! My daughter especially liked how Leslie listened to her and didn't let her compromise on her must-haves. Last but not least, after 19 years I told Leslie about my idea to move out of our house in Bethesda, rent it out, and buy a house in Silver Spring to be closer to family. She didn't skip a beat. She helped us think through the pros and cons of this risky endeavor. She knows the market and helped us see the moneymaking potential of the house. When we decided to go for it she told me exactly what I needed to do to prepare our house for rent. She tells it like it; specific important things like "get a new fridge, those lights have to go, use this paint color." She even helped us with the ad to rent the house. We had to move out quickly, so Leslie got right on it and found us a wonderful house within minutes of our daughter, our son, my sister, and it's closer to my husbands work. It had everything we needed including a park around the corner to let our dog run. And of course we got an amazing mortgage rate. Now our other house is rented and we're getting enough rent money to not only pay that mortgage but help pay the new one, too! Remember what I said in the beginning. You would think she paid me to say all this. You would have a hard time believing a real estate agent could be this good. But Leslie Friedson is this good. Don't waste your time going anywhere else.

We have been thrilled with the exceptional professionalism, responsiveness, and pleasant service we…read morehave received from Chris, Bryce, Danielle, and the rest of the team from start to finish. They have always been patient in educating us as first-time home buyers, and we never questioned that they were working in our best interest. They quickly ran many different scenarios and provided pre-approval letters for us on multiple properties that didn't come through, and finally for the house where our offer was accepted. One of the reasons we went with Chris and his team was their extensive experience and deep knowledge related to renovation loans (203k and HomeStyle) and conventional non-renovation loans, which gave us flexibility to switch to a different type of loan if the home we are purchasing did not end up qualifying for a non-renovation loan. We appreciated them expediting the appraisal, which was critical for this determination and luckily resulted in what we were hoping for. We always received quick, helpful, and easy to understand responses from Chris and Bryce, even on evenings, weekends, and Father's Day. Our loan was fully approved in about 2.5 weeks, even with a 5 week closing timeline. The rate we received was highly competitive. We have had absolutely zero complaints or hiccups throughout many, many months of working with Chris and the team, and we would unquestionably recommend Chris to friends and use him again.

I was very happy with my first condo purchase! Even after the condo was closed the First Home Mortgage team was open to answering my questions about all the new home owner mail I received. I would recommend this mortgage company to any new buyer!
