This real estate company continues to call me every month or so wanting to know if I want to sell my house in DC even though I've asked them to stop. When I start to tell them this, they hang up on me. They are obviously fishing for real estate listings but I have nothing to say other than their employees are rude and disrespectful. I would never work with them if this is how they conduct business.
We're so thankful that we chose to work with Andrew and the entire Mac Donald /Becker team! After looking ourselves for over a year and without any luck, within a few weeks Andrew helped us land our dream condo in our dream building for over less than 15K asking price! We are so happy that we are telling all our friends.
We highly recommend their real estate services for anyone who is looking to buy or sell on DC metro area.
Do yourself a favor, work with this team and take the stress out of your real estate transaction.
Dan and Andrew are terrific! They helped us sell our old house, and find the new house we were looking for, in the neighborhood where we most wanted to live. When we put our old house on the market, we got a couple of low offers. My husband and I talked with Dan about lowering the price. He convinced us to fix a couple of things instead. We ended up with two more offers, both above our asking price! We would use their services again any time. They were extremely professional and responsive to our needs. We give them two thumbs up!
Keith did an awesome job helping buy my home. As a fellow military veteran, he caught a loan issue that saved me tens of thousands of dollars in closing costs. He was also a hard negotiator and got the home well under the appraised value. Keith was always available for a phone call and made the entire process smooth and easy. I would highly recommend him and the MacDonald/Becker team.
I am so happy that I worked with Keith and the MacDonald/Becker team to help me with the sale of our home in DC and the purchase of our new home in MD. They sold our home in DC "as-is", which was really helpful for us, and with the proceeds from the sale we were able to buy a brand new construction home in the suburbs. Not only was Keith knowledgeable about the market but he was also very present during all of the negotiations. He didn't just call or email, he came by our house in person to sit down and go over all of the numbers to make sure we understood every detail. He also sat with us when we were getting our new home and helped get discounts with various parties in the transaction like the lender, title company, etc. I now have a stack of his business cards and hand them out to my friends and family. I strongly recommend Keith and the MacDonald/Becker team!
I can't say enough positive things about Keith and how he handled the sale of my property. I was moving out of the area and had already purchased a new home so I needed to sell my DC house quickly. The home was in need of a total renovation but I didn't want to sell it at a deep discount to some telemarketer. I told Keith my bottom line number and he guaranteed that I would get the price but he exceeded my expectations and got me even more money! Not only did Keith get me more money, he did it super fast and with no hassle. He held two showings, got two offers and it was under contract. Furthermore, I didn't have to clean a single thing or do any work. I just took my belongings and handed him the keys. Everything was on my timeline and schedule and Keith was always available to answer any questions. I strongly recommend him and the MacDonald/Becker team and have already told my neighbors to give them a call!
When I began looking for a home I didn't have an agent. Then after working alone for a long time, I met Keith at an open house and could tell right away that he was really knowledgeable about DC real estate. Unlike other agents, he was patient and didn't try to push me to buy the first home we saw. We submitted offers on multiple homes before we found the right one. The home I purchased had a competing offer but Keith knew what to do to get the home but also keep me protected. I wanted a home with an English basement that I could rent and Keith got me the necessary documentation to have a legal rental unit that will end up paying a significant portion of my mortgage. Keith is super friendly, easy to work with, and always available for a call. I would highly recommend him and the MacDonald/Becker team.
Dan was the man from start to finish! He handled the sale of my home expertly and in the end it worked out better than I could've expected. He first advised me on home improvements and staging before listing, which helped us get multiple offers pushing the price $50k above our asking price. Upon accepting a offer Dan informed me he felt uncomfortable with a number of requests the buyer had made in the paperwork. Dan advised me that additional provisions should be added to the contract to guarantee my protection. The buyers informed us the day before closing that they were pulling out with no explanation, but fortunately due to the terms of the contract, the earnest money deposit was issued to me by the closing attorney without arbitration. Dan immediately put the property back on the market and again got multiple offers, and again sold the property within days. We were able to get through closing quickly and the house sold above asking price. Dan had my back the entire time and I'm grateful I had him in my corner during the transaction. If you are considering buying or selling a home in the DC area you definitely want Dan and his team on your side!
Dan did an outstanding job helping me buy my home in Washington DC and I would recommend his services without reservation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Washington. I was looking for a property that met a very specific set of criteria, and when it was located he moved swiftly and skillfully to help me beat out the other buyers and land the property. He also helped me to line up a lender who successfully closed without a hitch, when there were other lenders who previously expressed heartburn over the fact that it needed work. Dan was an expert from start to finish and made sure we got the deal done without wasting time. He is definitely a guy you want on your side in a real estate transaction.
As first time home buyers my wife and I didn t know what to expect other than anticipating loads of stress about purchasing our first home. Those feelings were quickly diminished after our first meeting with Dan and Andrew. From the initial meeting we immediately knew that we were in good hands, Dan and Andrew were extraordinarily attentive to detail, they took the time and care to truly understand what my wife and I were looking for in our first home. Within just two weeks of our initial meeting we had placed a winning offer on our new home.
We knew we were competing against multiple other offers on the house but never had any doubt in their skill, savvy and technical ability in order to secure the deal. This was reaffirmed when we received notice that the seller had accepted our offer but then again even more so at closing when the listing agent reinforced how integral Dan s ability to compose a clean, clear, concise and strong offer played a major part in my wife and I winning out on our dream home.
