Testimonials

Shaye was wonderful to work with in finding my home in DC from start to finish in all aspects. She showed me several places based on my list of wants and must-haves and really helped me narrow down exactly what I wanted. I am now living in a place that I'm quite happy with, thanks to Shaye. When I first met her I told her that I wasn't looking for anything immediately, but had a few months to find what I was looking for. She respected that, didn't push at all, but would send me places that matched my interest and check in occasionally. It was the perfect amount of involvement. As I came closer to buying, she spent more time with me looking at places. She was professional, patient, and has an upbeat energy that I really appreciate, which helped make looking for a new home fun. Her communication was prompt and clear, quite responsive. She understands the business. I think she said that her…

Shaye was wonderful to work with in finding my home in DC from start to finish in all aspects. She showed me several places based on my list of wants and must-haves and really helped me narrow down exactly what I wanted. I am now living in a place that I'm quite happy with, thanks to Shaye. When I first met her I told her that I wasn't looking for anything immediately, but had a few months to find what I was looking for. She respected that, didn't push at all, but would send me places that matched my interest and check in occasionally. It was the perfect amount of involvement. As I came closer to buying, she spent more time with me looking at places. She was professional, patient, and has an upbeat energy that I really appreciate, which helped make looking for a new home fun. Her communication was prompt and clear, quite responsive. She understands the business. I think she said that her father's work was related to real estate, and she learned a lot about the various aspects. It showed. She pointed out potential concerns and advantages with the various properties, many of which I wouldn't have noticed. Two examples immediately come to mind: one was the special assessment on one property that she pointed out showed a concern with the finances of the condo association, and the other was that there was little evidence for how another condo used the relatively high condo fee. Both things to stay away from. When I decided to put in an offer on my new home, we went over some numbers, and she was key with the negotiations. I am quite pleased with what I paid. After signing a contract, Shaye sent me a list with a step-by-step guide to what I needed to do next and when I needed to do it. She suggested I get a couple of other offers from other lenders, and one she suggested provided a better rate and terms than what I found. So glad I listened to that suggestion. The settlement company she suggested made the closing go smoothly. The inspector she knew likewise was professional and thorough. I would highly recommend Shaye! Thanks again, Shaye!

I had the opportunity to work with Shaye during the winter and into spring in Key West looking for my first home ‘in paradise’. Shaye was wonderful to work with and really worked to understand my home preferences and research houses based on these parameters. Because this was my first home, and because obviously buying anything in Key West is not an easy undertaking, the one thing I didn’t want to do was rush into the entire house-buying process. Shaye in no way rushed me through anything or pressured me to make any sort of decisions up front, and I appreciated that we took our time researching houses, viewing houses, and discussing various aspects of different homes. The house that I eventually bought was not one that I myself had ‘considered’ in my own research. it was a house that had been on the market for quite a while and had few pictures, and I don’t think I ever would have given …

I had the opportunity to work with Shaye during the winter and into spring in Key West looking for my first home ‘in paradise’.

Shaye in no way rushed me through anything or pressured me to make any sort of decisions up front, and I appreciated that we took our time researching houses, viewing houses, and discussing various aspects of different homes. The house that I eventually bought was not one that I myself had ‘considered’ in my own research. it was a house that had been on the market for quite a while and had few pictures, and I don’t think I ever would have given it a second chance had Shaye not put the house into my MLS listings one Saturday to go view. Once we decided to make an offer on the home, the rest of the process was surprisingly less complicated than I feared it would be. Shaye made sure to contact me regularly with dates and things to remember, and she paired me up with a banker who was great to work with. There were only a few little hiccups along the way overall but compared to what I’ve heard others go through this was a breeze! Delighted to be in my own home and wouldn’t have gotten there without Shaye!
