I didn’t know who to call for a real estate agent in Ocean City, Maryland. The first realtor I tried, Vinny Steo, his secretary answered the phone, and she just couldn’t be bothered. In contrast, Dave Whittington, answered his phone, and made me feel my condo would get the proper attention for a sale. It took us 1.5 years to sell because the siding and roofing were more than 40 years and was just starting to show their age. The roof began leaking during down pours. Dave who lives locally in Ocean City, has the ability to check on the property as needed. Through the first year, Dave stopped by every time it rained or the temperature dropped very low. And thank God he did. He went in my home and placed towels on the hardwood, sun-room, floor to sop up water which had leaked from the roof. Another time he stopped by after a snow storm and discovered that my HVAC system wasn't working at all and a leak was coming from under the sink! He told me the indoor temperature had dropped to 40 degrees. He instinctively turned off the water to prevent further water damage, and called me right away. I was able to get the HVAC company in real time and they had me purchase a brand-new $1000 HVAC motor (it had just passed the 10-year coverage!) After 1 year, I decided to replace the roofing and siding and the home sold within 2 days after the first showing. I’m very pleased with Dave’s service. He advised me about the market and pricing and looked out for me during the closing. He has even told me to call him if I receive any bills and he would take care of it. Thank you Dave for your sincere and dedicated efforts to sell my home at a good price.

Working with Dave was a great experience. Even though our transaction was relatively straightforward and didn’t require a lot of heavy lifting, he was professional, responsive, and kept everything moving smoothly from start to finish. His communication was excellent, and he made sure the process stayed on track and closed quickly. It was reassuring to have someone knowledgeable overseeing the details and making everything feel effortless. I will definitely be using Dave again in the future as I continue my search for another investment property, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient real estate agent.

We had a great experience working with Dave. His experience and insight were essential to making our purchase go smoothly. Communication was helpful and not overwhelming.

I was going through one of the most stressful and uncertain periods of my life. Financial pressure was building, I was falling behind, and there was a real possibility I could lose my home before I had a chance to recover. This wasn’t a normal sale—this was a race against time. Dave stepped in and immediately brought clarity and control to the situation. He didn’t sugarcoat anything. He gave me real, strategic advice on what needed to change—pricing, positioning, and expectations—and made sure I understood exactly what it would take to get the deal done before it was too late. Looking back, I can honestly say I wish I had listened to him sooner. What separates Dave from everyone else is what he did beyond the contract. When things got tight at closing and I was dealing with logistics, timing, and access to funds, he didn’t disappear like most would—he stepped up. He made sure I had a solution. He even allowed me to temporarily store my belongings so I could transition without everything falling apart while waiting for funds to clear. That level of support is rare, especially in real estate. He treated my situation like it mattered—because it did. This wasn’t just business for him. He understood the stakes and showed up when it counted the most. If you want someone who will: • Tell you the truth, not what you want to hear • Strategize under pressure • Actually fight to get your deal closed • Stand by you when things get difficult Dave is that person. He didn’t just gain a client—he gained a lifelong customer and friend. I would recommend him 100 times over, without hesitation

I am a salesman and I rate others. Dave was a true professional by answering all my questions and never acted bothered. Would HIGHLY recommend him for his knowledge and sincerity.

Dave was great! From day one he was attentive, asked us all the right questions and really listened to the answers, and was able to help us focus in on what we wanted. This saved us a lot of time, because we only had to look at a couple of his suggested properties before we found the right one for us. In six weeks, we went from looking at every possible property on the market to settling on the property of our dreams. Dave offered a wealth of knowledge in a professional manner and helped us to achieve our goal. Thanks Dave!

Dave Whittington listed an apartment for us in North Ocean City in February 2026, and he was responsive, transparent, and professional throughout the entire process. From the beginning, he helped us understand common pitfalls and red flags, and he consistently presented clear options as we moved forward. Before we knew it, the property had multiple offers, and Dave took the time to walk us through them so we understood which ones were truly the best fit for us. At no point did we feel rushed or pressured to make a decision—he made sure we felt comfortable and informed every step of the way. Dave is an excellent communicator and a strong negotiator, and we were extremely happy with how everything turned out. In fact, we were so satisfied with his work that after the sale we used him again to purchase another property in Ocean City. We would absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great real estate agent.

We just purchased a condo in Ocean City, Maryland on 11/17/25. Dave provided us with excellence service. He is very knowledgeable and professional. I contacted him in September about real estate in Ocean City and gave him the property criteria that we wanted and the location. He set up a profile on the Real Estate MLS for us and we received notifications on all listed and upcoming properties that met our criteria. His communication was excellent and he was always very informative and always answered any questions that I had very promptly. Dave is very knowledgeable and has many years of experience in his business which makes him one of the best realtors out there. He is very professional, but also friendly. He made our buying a condo experience so enjoyable. We never felt pressured or rushed to have to make a decision on a property. He always emphasized that we had plenty of time and new property listings will be posted all of the time. Working with Dave was a very enjoyable and exciting experience. Dave answered all of our questions promptly, scheduled appointments to look at properties, gave us updates from the Seller when we wrote a contract, communicated and helped us with the ratified contract, communicated and provided information from the Seller's agent on the condo's HOA, prepared us for settlement, sent us emails with check lists of what we had to do prior to settlement, scheduled our walk through on the day of settlement and lastly settlement at the title company was fast and went smoothly. Dave Whittington is definitely the best realtor out there and we would rate him 100 Stars!!! We highly recommend him to everyone looking to purchase real estate in or around Ocean City, Maryland.

Dave and his vast expertise about the Delmarva real estate market was exactly what we needed, serving both as our seller and buyer agent. He represented us in the purchase of our first property in OCMD and stepped up for us again when we decided to reenter the market. His patience, attention to detail and feel for the ebbs and flow of the market served us well and consistently got us to the finish line. Dave was always looking out for our best interest and frequently shared insights that we wouldn't have considered as buyer and sellers. All of his hardwork led to the sale of our property in an unpredictable market and the purchase of our new property a few months later. We wouldn't have accomplished any of this without him. We highly recommend Dave to anyone looking to sell or buy property in and around OCMD.
