"What a great experience working with Jonathan. We had been eyeing a particular neighborhood for a while. We knew that the home would go quickly.

Jonathan was able to counsel us on a competitive offer and use his relationship with the other agent to communicate the needs of the seller.

When we finally put an offer in there were 7 other offers. We thought for sure we wouldn’t get the home.

Initially our offer wasn’t accepted, but we were able to tweak some of the terms that appealed to the seller and got the house!

We wouldn’t have been able to be in this home without Jonathan’s guidance and expertise.

★★★★★
"We bought a previous home using an agent that was referred to us by a colleague. Our experience then was fine and we never heard from him again.

When we first interviewed Jonathan we could tell right off the bat how genuine he was. He was able to list our home and have over 20 families in for the open house where we received multiple offers.

While we have relocated out of state due to a job change we look forward to moving back in a few years and working with Jonathan again.

"Jonny is everything that you want in a real estate agent - knowledgeable, trustworthy, helpful, smart, driven, experienced, well-connected, and personable. We've known him for years and he has been so incredible to work with. If you're looking for a realtor - whether you're buying or selling - you need to contact Jonny." - Jonathan

★★★★★
"I cannot underscore enough how much I recommend and how highly I regard Jonathan. He has truly been a pleasure to work with. Jonathan responded quickly to all of my questions and was always helpful and thoughtful when it came to responding any question/issue that I had. With Jonathan, I felt as though he was a knowledgeable friend rather than an employee of some company just doing his job. If you are considering Jonathan as your broker, you won't be disappointed." - James

★★★★★
"Jonathan helped us both buy and sell our home. He was thoughtful, professional, and made sure the process was smooth and easy for us. What we loved the most was the fact that he took the stress out of the process. From beginning to end, he was absolutely amazing. I am so happy we worked with him." - Joshua

About Jonathan

My story.

I grew up locally here in Montgomery County. As a kid, life wasn't always easy. There was a time in my life where I didn't have a home to call my own. I knew I'd rather not be a victim of my hard times and circumstances and I would make it a point to give back. I enlisted in the Army Reserve at the end of high school to help pay for my education at the University of Maryland Baltimore County. I worked in finance and helped run a nonprofit that helped Veterans obtain VA benefits.

Wanting to get "out of the conference room" I decided to move into real estate. I began helping financial planning clients and friends with their real estate needs and it turned out that I really loved it! I enjoyed how relationship centric real estate is. It's allowed me to bond with people in a way financial planning didn't.

I became addicted to the impact I could have on a person's life by telling them "you got the house!" or "we are under contract!". Everyone is so grateful that it never feels like work.

Real estate allows me to be with my family more than ever. Chances are you are going to see Kinley when I drop off a sign or hear my son in the background while on a call. I hope they see my desire to help others and impacts them to want to do the same.

  • I have been attacked by a shark (and won't go in the ocean anymore).

  • I love coffee.
  • I’m super competitive in everything, especially board games.
