He put us at ease every step of the way by detailing the process and answering our questions with just the right amount of information. Not to mention he was highly responsive. It was clearly informed decision-making getting us multiple offers that was beyond what we expected to receive. He went above and beyond, making the prep, staging, open house, and then advice on the offers was invaluable. Shaun is the consummate professional and is the top choice when selling a house in Alexandria. You can't ask for better!

My search for a home in DC was a long and complicated one. I was a first time home buyer with very…read morespecific needs, a family who was very involved in the process, a unique financial situation, a definitive time-frame where purchase would need to be completed by, and a very tough schedule to visit properties. I was referred to Maria Fernandez, interestingly enough, through my first real estate agent (who was making career changes). At this point, I had all but given up on finding a property for purchase in DC and was going to settle on renting for the remainder of the time that I was going to live here. However, I found Maria to be extremely knowledge (both of the city and of the market), friendly, patient, and above all honest. She was able to unravel the extremely complex and convoluted path to purchasing a home in DC while working with a myself, with a very difficult work schedule, and my family who are located a few hours away. With every property we visited, she was able to give a thorough summary of the highlights and possible shortcomings of the property. She was honest when she did not have the information I asked for and was timely in response when she found my answer. When working with Maria, it does not feel like she is trying to sell you a property, it feels like she is trying to help you find your future home. Whether it was last minute calls to see a property, or when I was late to a showing due to work constraints, she always met me with a friendly demeanor and understanding. As a first time home buyer and a transplant to DC, I cannot imagine a better first agent with whom to make a purchase of a home.

I called Justin to vet our mortgage (ARM or a traditional 30-year), to make sure our bank documents were right, and to figure out whether we needed additional title insurance coverage. I called Justin about just about everything, and to his credit, he always answered. He was extremely responsive, and he didn't just say yes or tell us what we wanted to hear. He gave us real advice that got us a better offer, a better deal, and the right home. On the first house we bid on, he encouraged us not to go higher. We did anyway. It was the wrong home for us, and thank goodness we didn't get it. It taught us a valuable lesson: Justin is a seasoned, smart, savvy realtor who knows what's best for his clients once they lay out their vision and what they want. He knew the neighborhood, the restaurants, and exactly what to look out for. Compared to the horror stories we'd heard from friends, he made the process easy and seamless. He went above and beyond, and I'll always remember that he put my wife and me in our first home. Best realtor I've ever worked with. I couldn't be more grateful.

As soon as we started working together, Justin tapped into his deep knowledge of the area to help us understand what neighborhoods and homes would best fit our preferences and needs. As a first-time home buyer, he also explained the process clearly and made me feel confident at every step. When we found the right house, Justin helped ensure we negotiated effectively so that we could make it a reality. He and his team kept everything on track and the whole process felt far less stressful because we knew Justin and his team were organized, knowledgeable, and dependable in our corner. Highly recommend working with Justin!

I'm a homeowner, thanks to Shanika Hopson and the incredible Coalition Properties Team!…read more Shanika is an phenomenal realtor. I became connected to Shanika through a recommendation to use Harrison and Coalition Properties from a friend. Shanika is knowledgeable about neighborhoods, real estate trends, and very well connected. Not to mention, has a confident ease and very personable. You can see that Shanika wants you to find your home, more than just make a sale. Early on, I said I was willing to look and live all over DC, but really wanted to stay in NW, love natural light, wanted a 2bd condo and near "things". (I don't have a car). Shanika listened to me, watched carefully when we went to see condos, started to underhand my likes and dislikes, and never made me feel silly with all my questions and lack of knowledge. We communicated regularly via text/phone and using a particular app, she was able to see they types of places I was interested in. I saw a condo that was going on the market in a few days, we saw it before it went live... and the rest is history. The Coalition Properties Team hand held me( literally) through the entire process. I was also getting EHAP/HPAP monies making it a bit more difficult. They were on it. I was so impressed and thankful. I also love that they work with and support many black owned businesses and contacts. (Shoutout to Tracey on the closing team at coalition, Kendall my lender, and Sheldon the inspector!) So, to say it long. I had a wonderful experience working with Shanika. I put an offer on and purchased my first condo. A 2bd/1ba in Columbia Heights. I'm a homeowner y'all.

Thank you, Franky and Team!…read more If you are looking for a house in the DMV area, Franky is the perfect agent! HE IS THE PERSON WHO HELP US TO FIND THE HOUSE JUST WITHIN THE 2nd OFFER in NICE AREA! My husband and I met Franky at one of the open houses in Washington DC. At that time, we didn't have any idea about the home-purchasing process. Even Though we searched online, we still got lost since we didn't know what the first step was and what our priority was. Franky helped us to understand the overall process, and encouraged us to think about our future life to set the goal of home-purchasing. Even Though we were not his clients at the moment, he gave us a 1-hour presentation of the whole process with the pamphlet. When we decided to go with Franky, he tried his best for us to find our FIRST HOME with some of our considerations. Since both of us work full-time, he made house-tour appointments or meetings (regarding making offers) after work hours. After our offer was accepted, Franky and his team gave sufficient advice regarding everything, such as locking the mortgage, depositing, final walk through, and the settlement! It took only 6 weeks to move into the new home since we started to look at the house to buy. As you can see my name, I am a foreigner and the whole process seemed overwhelming for me. However, Franky helped my husband and I to relieve the stress by communicating with the selling agent and title company. (Oh, I heard that he speaks English as well as Spanish). If my friend who came from foreign country asks me to recommend any agent, I will recommend FRANKY and his team! I am writing this review in my new, cozy room, where I dreamed about since I immigrated here. I can convince that if you work with Franky, you will never regret.

It would be impossible to describe how POSITIVE of an experience it was to work with Laura!…read moreEverything went soooooo smoothly from start to finish and Laura was that driver for us! She always made us feel like her #1 priority even though we knew she was busy with other clients: she made time for us on-a-dime, was always present, on-time or early, and was incredible good at scheduling around all of our busy schedules. Laura is an AMAZING communicator: was quick and responsive and always provided us with thorough details and explanations. Laura provided us (first-time home buyers) with an incredible wealth of knowledge and advice when we requested and had great insights. She also has an extensive personal network that helped us start our lender search, find a day-of home inspector, and contractors to help us get started on our new-home projects. She understood our home buying strategy, and helped us get our dream house on our FIRST offer! Her advice and guidance was instrumental in us landing the house we had our hearts set on! We will work with Laura again for any future home purchase. I would recommend Laura to any and EVERYONE!

If you are looking for a realtor, look no further. Laura is the ONE! My husband and I were…read morefirst-time home buyers buying a condo in Arlington. Laura was recommended to us as a top agent in the DMV area with impressive transaction volume each year. Although we identified multiple agents through our search, we immediately decided to work with Laura after our initial video call because we were impressed by her knowledge of the local housing market and all aspects of real estate transaction. We are so grateful that we did! We were buying a condo in a very competitive area. Every time when we made an offer, we had a competing offer and had to act very quickly to make our offer more competitive. Laura worked around the clock to prepare the comparative market analysis, tour the units with us, crafted and advised us on compelling offer terms and negotiated with the seller agents. Our closing had some extra complexities due to the condo building's financing approval being expired. Laura skillfully helped us navigate this issue. She proactively included relevant language in our offer to protect us from such financing issue before we even knew there was an issue with the condo building. After we discovered the issue, Laura was in constant communication with the seller's agent, condo building and mortgage broker to speedily resolve the issue and ensure we could close on time within 3 weeks. Laura's price prediction and recommendations were spot on when we submitted our offer. She recommended us to adjust our offer to a certain price to increase our chance of sealing the deal at our offer price (instead of activating the price escalation clause and resulting in us paying a higher price). We were able to be the winning offer because of Laura's excellent communication skills and expert advice. We followed Laura's recommendation and did not have to pay more than our offer price for the condo. The appraisal ended up being higher than our purchase price. We are grateful that Laura helped us secure our dream home at a great price. Laura was extremely responsive and patient. We had a lot of questions as first-time home buyers. Laura patiently answered all of our questions at any time of the day. Despite her busy schedule, she accommodated our challenging schedules and requests under short notice every single time, which enabled us to close our home with great success. We could not have asked for a better realtor to share this home purchase journey with. Thank you Laura for being an outstanding, caring and dedicated realtor!

From the moment we met, her kind demeanor and clear expertise in the Washington, DC housing market shined through. I knew immediately she was the right person to help guide me through the process. And the team she's got working for her are also completely wonderful, too! I never went more than a couple hours waiting for an answer from them when I emailed - and it was usually way quicker. I was incredibly impressed by Jessica's detailed, thoughtful approach to how to think about marketing my home, how to prep it for the sale, and what to price it at. To be honest, I wasn't completely sure we'd be able to get the asking price she wanted to start at - it was high! But I trusted her because she was right about everything else up to that point. And holy cow we got the full asking price within 8 days of going on the market - on the first offer! I recommend Jessica 100% to anyone looking for a kind, incredibly smart, and savvy real estate agent in DC. She's truly one of a kind.
