Professional. It was a pleasure working with them. I was in NY and closed on a house in MD. Process was simple and streamlined.

Our closing agent, Matt, was very informative in explaining the documents that we were signing on closing day.

I had the displeasure of conducting my sale with this company and I do not recommend them…read more Scott was so condescending when going over my ALTA and explaining what debit was left off by their Senior Processor, Zoe, who had sent it to me two weeks before my closing date. My realtor had to reach out for two days to receive the final ALTA and when she did it was wrong. The night before my closing I finally got the correct final ALTA and it was way off from the one sent weeks back so I asked the other processor if she could go through it with me and she connected me with Scott. He sounded as if I were inconveniencing him by asking about the impactful difference, still no accountability taken for failure of including this debit and no apologies offered. Also, when I signed my closing documents I had to ask if they'd be needing the condo, mailbox, and storage keys. No one even asked! When I emailed about how disappointing this was there was no reply, so now everyone can know how disappointing their lack of communication was and know there are other Title and Escrow companies to use in the Fairfax area for your closing and settlement.

Above and beyond as far as service! I've worked with a lot of title companies over the years and I…read morehave never worked with a company to ready to help you get the product you need.

This letter will serve as my very high letter of recommendation for real estate agent and broker…read morePhilippa Main. 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.

My Brookfield home is in the Heritage Shores Community in Delaware. I am posting a picture of what…read moremy driveway looks like after less than a year in a Brookfield house. No driveway should look this bad in that short of a time. This driveway's concrete was either improperly mixed, sealed, or dried. I never put salt on the driveway. The corrosion must have come off the street on my tires. The damage should not be this bad in less than a year. The "Customer Service" department never called me; we only exchanged emails. Their view is that the bad winter and indirectly applied de-icing agents caused the problem. I don't believe that it would look this bad after the first winter if the concrete was correctly mixed, poured and dried.

We've been in our new Brookfield home for over a year now and my advice to anyone reading reviews…read moreabout Brookfield is to BELIEVE THEM and find another builder. There's a reason Brookfield homes all over the country have terrible ratings and reviews. They don't stand by the quality of work for what they're charging and will absolutely gaslight you and tell you nothing is wrong with your house even though, like us, you have actual engineers saying otherwise as things in the house break. Even when DOZENS of code violations are discovered in just the basement they'll tell you nothing is wrong with the house and will refuse to check for similar problems anywhere else. Even when all of the countertops and cabinets in the house fall away from the walls, they'll say it's not a problem and it will take them 8 months to fix. Even when your floors sag all over the house and it's because of their shoddy framing job, they'll tell you there's nothing wrong with your house and take a year to fix it. Even when the cheap windows they installed in every room of the house crack and pop whenever there is a slight wind, scaring your family and animals, waking you up in the middle of the night, and you have sent them DOZENS of videos throughout the year proving the issue is loud and severe... they'll just send a guy over with little foam pads and Pledge to spray in the windows and say it's fixed (it's not). If you don't mind shortcuts, excuses, the blame game, and a total lack of care in the quality of these fairly expensive homes... Brookfield is the builder for you! God speed.

We initially contacted Dan after seeing "COMING SOON ORANGE LINE LIVING" signs outside some of the…read morehomes we lusted after during our house hunt. Upon meeting Dan, his knowledge of the orange-line housing market was very impressive. This guy lives in the neighborhood and certainly knows the comps. In an era of multiple bids, Dan helped us realize that beyond just throwing money at a new home, there are others ways to write a very competitive offer. Additionally, Dan was also able to get us several viewings of townhomes before they came on the market - something I think gave him a huge edge over other realtors in the area. Because of the shortage of inventory (especially townhomes) in Arlington County, this makes all the difference in the world. Dan also offers a "one-percent off" for buyers guarantee (check out his website) which we thought was a great touch. Throughout the whole process, Dan was extremely responsive (which is very important to a first-time home buyer) - even helping us through a mortgage crisis while he was on his honeymoon. In the end, we couldn't be happier with our new home. And we'll certainly be contacting Dan and his team down the road when we start thinking about selling :) BONUS: "Orange-line living open house" sign twirlers by the Clarendon metro. How can you not love that!!??

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.
