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.

He shepherded four 22-year-old recent college graduate boys through the process of getting their first lease on their first post grad adult townhouse, sight unseen.. That is not an easy process, and we parents were trying not to micromanage, so unfortunately the bulk of the work fell on poor Lance. My son and I actually referred to him as "poor Lance" because of all the questions that he answered.. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, professional, kind and empathetic realtor, he is your guy!! And he is our guy for as long as my son is in the Washington DC area. Massive thanks and huge. Kudos to Poor Lance.!!

He was so helpful through every step of the process, willing to answer any question we had, and help us work through the headache that is DC bureaucracy. As first time home buyers, and now first time landlords, Lance made sure we understood and felt comfortable with all the ins and outs of each process. He is thorough, knowledgeable, responsive, kind, and just an all around pleasure to work with. We will have no hesitation to work with him again in the future, and would recommend him to any friend or family member looking for help in navigating DC real estate.

Cornelia Gibson has established a new standard as a realtor. I met her during a church meeting, she…read morewas highly recommended by a congregant whose home she previously sold. The church needed Cornelia's help to rent one property and sell another. In both instances, the transactions had special circumstances and we needed special treatment and marketing. The leadership group had several questions and concerns about the process. Cornelia answered all of our questions professionally and honestly (even when it was an answer we would not like). She expertly eased our tensions about the process. She informed us on market trends and assisted us with transaction timing. She was the consummate professional. The church leadership team was extremely satisfied with her work. A few years later, I considered selling a home that I lived in for nearly 2 decades. Although I was a homeowner, I was clueless about the process of buying a new home while selling my current home. I would randomly call her with questions that she answered without pressure. Eventually, I was ready to sell and buy a new home. Of course, I wanted Cornelia for my realtor. Cornelia expertly marketed my property, using a professional photographer, she showed my home in its best light. Cornelia provided me with useful feedback following each viewing. She found my buyer in a few short weeks and from then on, she managed my sale and purchase. Her communication was excellent and I was able to text or phone outside of normal working hours. Although this was a very stressful process for me, Cornelia was there to guide and support me each step of the way. I recommend her wholeheartedly.

Our experience with Ms. Gibson was nothing short of amazing!! This is our second time using her…read moreservices. She is very knowledgeable of her craft and her honesty is impeccable! Ms. Gibson paid attention to our requests/needs and provided honest feedback from pricing to what needed to be done to prepare both places for sale. She worked hard, not just 9-5, to ensure that my mother's and our homes got a lot of visibility and high foot traffic when placed on the market. Due to Ms. Gibson's diligence in ensuring proper advertising and staging, my mother's condo sold in less than two months and our house had serious offers within one week of being on the market and sold within a month! Our anxiety level was high, but Ms. Gibson calmed our nerves and made the process less stressful. Again, she is not a 9-5 realtor, she goes above and beyond to be there and address any questions or concerns we had. We highly recommend her services! Thank you Ms. Gibson!!

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.

Since I didn't know any agents in town, I thought I should meet with him. I wasn't disappointed . I contracted him. He showed me about 9 properties before I found the ONE.

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.

Katri, Ryan, and team were extremely thorough in all aspects of the transaction.

We felt updated and in the know at every step of each transaction. We felt empowered to make decisions, but could also rely on the team to assist in guiding us where we needed guidance. I would highly recommend Katri, Ryan, and their team to buy or sell your home. We could not be happier with how the entirety of the process played out! Easy 5 stars!
