As first-time home buyers, we couldn't have asked for a better real estate agent. She was incredibly communicative, always available when we had questions, and took the time to walk us through every step of the process. Her patience, knowledge, and guidance made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel manageable and exciting. We always felt supported and informed, and we're so grateful for her help in finding our home.

Nicholas was an excellent communicator and was available through text, call, and email. He was always quick to respond. He was able to help us navigate a market that was unfamiliar to us and answer the many questions we had. He was very professional and we appreciate everything he did to help us buy our first home!

Buying our first house, we had a lot of unknown unknowns, and Nicholas helped walk us through the whole process. Very responsive, he had the knowledge, tips and tricks to allow us to beat out 5 other offers on our dream home.

Henry told us early on that he might not be able to find exact right house for us, but if we found it ourselves, he would set us up as best as possible to win it. That's exactly what happened. We met Henry a little over a year before we ended up buying a house through him, and much of that first year was just us being unprepared and asking a lot of questions. Henry took the time to learn what we were looking for, explain anything we didn't know yet, and most importantly, understood the market shifts at the time we considered putting in offers. By the time we put in our first and only offer, we all knew that certain high quality houses were going considerably over listing. We did what we could on the bid, but Henry's last second chats with the listing agent and negotiation skills clutched the win for us.

Sebastien is one of the hardest-working agents I’ve ever worked with. He handled the sale of my rental property with exceptional professionalism, sound judgment, and an impeccable eye for detail. As a knowledgeable investor, I came into the process with a strong understanding of the market and realistic expectations. Even so, Sebastien delivered a higher price and better terms than I would have expected. His pricing strategy, negotiation skills, and overall execution were excellent. What stood out most was how thoroughly he vetted the buyers. It was more rigorous and thoughtful than anything I’ve seen before, and it gave me tremendous confidence throughout the process. He represented my interests exceptionally well from start to finish. I would highly recommend Sebastien to anyone looking for a strategic, diligent, and highly capable agent.

I reached out to Shane for assistance in finding my first property because he always had a great attitude and drive from our time as teammates and friends. He worked very hard and not only got me through the processes but he had a great way of teaching me about all the details and important items every future owner should know. I cannot recommend Shane more. Great Agent!

Shane Butler did an amazing job helping me purchase my first condo. He was extremely responsive and has an excellent understanding of the local market. Since I was buying from out of state, Shane made the entire process seamless. We coordinated throughout the week, and he always had multiple showings thoughtfully lined up for the weekends based on the parameters we discussed.He’s very personable and easy to work with—friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in his clients’ success. He even took the time to show me around the Engel & Völkers Washington DC office and recommended a great spot for lunch between viewings.Shane also offered valuable advice and acted as an unwavering advocate from start to closing. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the DC area.

When was the last time you bought a house totally online from 7,000 miles away, from Beijing, China, where I was posted and needed to come back to the Washington DC area in a short window of time? This summer 2022 we did just that with the amazing work from Sebastien and Jocelyn at the Alliance at Compass. This team was incredibly responsive, detailed, transparent, thorough, and overall, trustworthy in handling and managing our concerns, questions, inquiries, and ultimately, the purchase of our home. I felt in good hands with them and learned quickly to trust their professional advice and guidance. And all of this happened online! They were our five senses in the ground. Amazing people to work with. If you are an international diplomat, this is your real estate team!
