KUDOS to MOLLY CARTER, Real Estate Agent, Long and Foster…read more Molly Carter provided exceptional and insightful assistance in helping me sell my home in Montgomery County and purchase another home in Howard County over a year later.  Molly's knowledge of the Maryland, Virginia, and Capital District real estate; her connections with both an excellent real estate mortgage loan service and a real estate title service; and  her cooperative relationships with colleagues in the area enabled the best results in both situations. Her expertise ensured that the first home was in optimal condition for a quick sale.  Within a few weeks, it sold a little over the asking price.   The second home was hard to find.  Willing to drive to Howard County in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings, and during the weekdays or weekends, Molly helped me checkout many homes.  After a year of looking, we found a home in an excellent location, but the second home needed a few changes.  Molly helped me connect with her contractors to create a perfect home for me. I unequivocally recommend Molly Carter at Long and Foster to those considering residential real estate actions in this area.

When it came time to sell my beloved condo in Cleveland Park we chose Joe Himali to not only…read morerepresent us, but to also help guide us through the process, which included some construction as well as staging. We interviewed several realtors but Joe stuck out and felt like the right fit. Ultimately we couldn't have been happier with Joe and Rosemary. They're the best! What really set Joe apart was how he coordinated everything, which I learned by way of interviewing other realtors, isn't a given. His crew handled literally everything - from contractors to stagers and even a moving company that flawlessly moved everything (including my larger than life LoveSac/beanbag) between two locations. Back to Joe! As a first time seller the process was daunting. My condo was a uniquely shaped studio with decent square footage. The question was do we build a wall? Do we not build a wall? This is where Joe's knowledge of the local market really shined. We talked about the various options and I honestly I was into way too many ideas. Joe convinced me that French doors were the way to go and by golly (I never use that term) he was right! I trusted him and the result was awesome. So awesome I wish I consulted him years prior. All of that being said, Joe goes above and beyond with lists of contractors, movers, stagers, etc. at the ready. You have options so it's not like you're forced into using person XYZ. His team handles the estimates and the technical details. We really appreciated everything he did. He was on point with open houses and we had several offers within six weeks. Looking back I can honestly say I don't think that result would have happened had we gone with someone else. So thanks again to Joe and Rosemary! I'd use them again in a heartbeat.

I have known Cindy for about 10 years. She helped me purchase my first home in 2009. When it came…read moretime for me to purchase my second home, she was the only person I considered. There are many reasons Cindy is my first choice but I have listed a few below: Responsiveness: When you are trying to find a home in a hot market, it is important to have a realtor who is responsive. When I made the offer on my current home in November 2018, someone else had already submitted an offer to the buyer. Because Cindy was knowledgeable about contracts and quick to respond to emails and phone calls, my offer was accepted only minutes before the other homebuyer. There is a lot more to this story but I will tell you that Cindy worked her butt off to get me this home. In addition, when I was viewing multiple homes, Cindy took my request to view a home seriously and would try to schedule the home visit the next day when possible. If you are serious about buying a home. You will want to have Cindy as your realtor.  Realtor Expert: Cindy is an expert when it comes to real estate contracts and because of her many years of experience in real estate, she has also become somewhat of an expert when it comes to the condition of a home. During home tours, Cindy is under the cabinets looking at pipes, she is in the basement inspecting the water heater and furnaces, she is checking all the nooks and crannies you probably forgot about because you are more focused on the initial appearance of the home. Many of the items that were pointed out by my inspector during my home inspection, where things I anticipated because Cindy pointed them out during the initial tour of the home. I was grateful to have someone with her experience, working on my side. Overall personality: Cindy is a gem. She has spunk, she is always smiling, full of energy, and a pleasant person to work with. She is serious about her work and she cares for her clients. She will work hard to get you the home that you want. Oh and before I forget, this is another reason I love Cindy so much. After my home inspection, we tried to negotiate a seller assistance for some of the repairs that had to be made on the home. The seller didn't want to budge and I gave in, I told Cindy I'll just take what the buyer was offering. Cindy didn't like this. I don't know what conversation she had with the buyers realtor, but at the end of the day, I received the seller subsidy I wanted and not what the buyer was trying to give me. Cindy went above and beyond for me. She didn't have to but she did because she wanted what was best for me.  So, if you are looking for a realtor, you should choose Cindy. The first home she helped me purchase is in Maryland and the second home is in Alexandria, VA.

We have sold a condo and a house, and we have bought a house with Cindy as our real estate agent…read more She is an absolutely amazing realtor. She was involved in every step of the buying and selling process and worked very hard for us. When buying and selling she will fight and negotiate hard, understanding what you want and bargain appropriately. She loves to negotiate, and will work hard to make sure you qet what you want and manage your risk levels (and expectations). What I loved the most about Cindy is she stayed involved and stayed on top of all the moving parts of the house buying and selling process. Between the buyer, the seller, the buying agent, the selling agent, mortgage broker, and title company it's a lot to take care off and keep track of. Cindy stayed on top of all these different pieces to make sure that everyone is doing their job. She was also incredibly sensitive to our timelines on each buying and selling process and kept us informed every step of the way. She was always accessible over the phone and in person when needed - at times acting as half agent and half therapist. She gave us a lot of guidance on coordinating the actual move (we moved with young children), gave solid and reasonable advice on how to get our properties ready for selling and viewing, and went above and beyond for us on several occasions to make sure we were taken care of at every step of the way. If you're looking for an experienced, aggressive, transparent, helpful and informative agent - do not hesitate to work with Cindy - you couldn't be in better hands.
