Jesse Grimste

For more than a decade, Jesse Grimste has represented buyers and sellers across Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. He knows a great real estate decision rarely comes down to the listing alone. It takes an understanding of the property, the people involved, and the choices that can change the outcome of a deal.

As co-founder of The Phoebe and Jesse Team at Compass, Jesse works across a wide range of properties and price points: luxury homes, new construction, development projects, investment properties, and homes whose potential is easier to see than to sell. His clients include first-time buyers, developers, seasoned investors, and high-profile clients alike.

Jesse's perspective was shaped by years in D.C.'s luxury market and by his work with a team specializing in modern and contemporary homes, from the Eastern Shore to Virginia's hunt country. Those experiences gave him an eye for what makes a home exceptional, and for the practical details that determine how a transaction unfolds.

He especially enjoys the work between finding the right property and getting to closing: the positioning, the timing, the negotiation, the moments that call for a steady hand. Clients rely on him for candid advice and close attention throughout. Agents referring clients to the D.C. area can expect the same care, along with a partner who understands the trust behind an introduction.

Jesse holds a B.S. in International Business and Real Estate from the University of South Carolina. He is licensed in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia.
