Patti OConnor

REALTOR®

(8 reviews)

About Patti

Patti O'Connor brings 27 years of inside knowledge to every real estate transaction — but she earned 25 of those years on the other side of the table. For a quarter century, Patti was a top-performing mortgage professional, specializing in high-net-worth clients with complicated tax returns, self-employed borrowers, and the kind of complex financial profiles that send most lenders running for cover. With an average loan amount of $1 million, she became the person CPAs, wealth advisors, and other lenders called when a deal was hanging in the balance. In 2024, she did what felt like a natural pivot, not a leap: she became a Realtor with Engel & Völkers in Annapolis. The transition made sense because real estate is the same business she's always been in — she just gets to walk clients through the full arc of a transaction now, not only the financing piece. That mortgage background is Patti's quiet superpower. Self-employed buyers don't have to explain their K-1s twice. Jumbo financing isn't a mystery. When a deal hits a financing snag (and they do), she's already five steps ahead of it. For sellers, it means knowing exactly what kind of buyer can actually close — and which offers will fall apart at the underwriting stage. Patti serves buyers and sellers across Annapolis, Washington, D.C., Montgomery County, Frederick County, and Anne Arundel County, with a particular focus on high-net-worth clients and self-employed borrowers navigating complex transactions. Her style is warm, direct, and relentlessly prepared. Her closings end with a signature red bow on the front door — because every "keys-day" should feel as good as it is. When she's not at a closing or a showing, she's home with her husband Stephen of 24 years (also her favorite lender), her 5 children, and 8 grandchildren — or up at 5 AM doing the workout-and-reading routine that keeps the rest of the day pointed in the right direction. If you're thinking about your next move — buying, selling, or quietly weighing options for the year ahead — Patti would love to be the person you call.

Best in the business

Steve has made this the easiest and most efficient home sale in my lifetime. Under contract within 4 days of going live, a stuffed open house, and excellent communication through and through. My wife and I can't thank you enough!

Katie Moore got me the right house in a multiple offer situation

I am new to Annapolis, and from the moment I met Katie Moore, I knew I was in good hands. When my offer ended up competing against another buyer, Katie helped me structure the right strategy to win it, not just bid higher, but bid smarter. She consistently thought ahead and anticipated issues before they became problems, which kept everything smooth even with the pressure of a competitive market. Every resource she connected me with was just as sharp and reliable as she is. She was also quick to respond and never missed a beat, which matters so much when good homes don't stay available for long. If you're buying in Annapolis, especially as a newcomer, I highly recommend Katie Moore.

Amazing service and excellent communication

We had an outstanding experience working with Steven Knopf on the sale of our home at 31 College Avenue in Annapolis. From start to finish, Steven was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Selling a home can be stressful, but Steven guided us through every step of the process with confidence and expertise. His knowledge of the Annapolis market, attention to detail, and strategic approach to pricing and marketing helped us achieve a successful sale. He was always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer valuable advice when decisions needed to be made. What impressed us most was Steven’s dedication and commitment to our best interests. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure the transaction moved smoothly and efficiently. His communication was excellent, and we always felt informed and supported throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for a realtor who is honest, hardworking, and truly cares about his clients, we highly recommend Steven Knopf. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and are grateful for everything he did to help us successfully sell our home. Thank you, Steven, for a job exceptionally well done!
