★★★★★
"Laura was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and excellent at explaining my options at every stage of the process. I could not be more satisfied with the experience and would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home in the greater DC area." - Will

★★★★★
"Laura was great! As a first time home buyer I had questions about a lot of parts of the process, and she was great about helping me out and answering all of my questions, plus helped me get excited about my new home! Really enjoyed getting to know her and will definitely recommend her to anyone I know looking to buy a home." - Catherine

★★★★★
"I cannot emphasize enough how highly I recommend Laura! As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous about making such a huge investment with very little knowledge of the process. Not only did Laura use her excellent knowledge to work with my wish list and help me find a place that met my needs, but she also fought to make sure I was treated fairly during the negotiation process. I also appreciate that Laura was not afraid to be honest, even when it did not confirm what I wanted to hear. This saved me from situations that would likely not have been the best for me, and when I did find “the one,” I was confident in knowing I had made a good decision because Laura would have advised me otherwise had it not been. Throughout the process, Laura went above and beyond – from liaising with other colleagues in the process to following up on tiny details that were probably not technically her responsibility. And despite my extremely meticulous attention to detail, Laura never shrugged me off or treated me like I was asking for too much. In fact, she picked up on what was important to me, and used that to help get me to a place where I was able to make an offer and be comfortable with the space. Laura became an instant friend, and was incredibly easy to work. I would certainly choose Laura again for my future home buying needs!" - J

★★★★★
"Laura is my absolute favorite. I truly could not be happier with the amount of care she put into my search for my first home. Laura walked me through all of the considerations of the home buying process, from understanding resale value to maintenance/upkeep and condo management styles. She was beyond patient, empathetic, and above all, she listened to everything I expressed in terms of needs vs. wants in a home. It's so important to feel like your agent is representing your best interests, especially as you've communicated them, and Laura went above and beyond. She also balanced out my wish list by showing me how and when to compromise, (i.e. if you want more space, be open to looking outside of the city, depending on what's important). Further, Laura works with a wonderful team at Compass that helped me find a local lender, an insurance bundle, and guided me through the inspection/appraisal with minimal effort on my end. I am so in love with my new home and I would absolutely recommend Laura to anyone in need of an agent." - Bahrami

★★★★★
"Laura was an amazing realtor to work with! My wife and I were considering becoming first time home buyers and Laura walked us through the entire process, and answered all of our questions about how to enter the market, what to look for in a property, etc. She was very honest about her opinion on if it was the right time to enter the DC condo market, and we could tell she had our own interests in mind. Laura helped us negotiate our bid and we're extremely happy with the references she gave us on lenders, title companies, etc. We are definitely recommending her to our friends who are interested in buying here in the DC area. Thanks Laura!" - Joshua
★★★★★
"Laura is so kind and responsive. We feel very confident that we got the best deal possible on our new home and are looking forward to working with her to sell our condo." - Anjali

★★★★★
"Laura helped my purchase my first home. As a first time homebuyer eager to live in Georgetown, Laura was amazing at walking me through the process and the area. As a Georgetown resident herself, Laura is truly a resident expert. She was always incredibly responsive and more than happy to virtually tour a house for me. When I did find a place I wanted to put an offer on, she helped me write a competitive offer to beat out two others. Thank you Laura!" - Ryan

★★★★★
"Laura helped us find renters for a condo we own in Washington DC back in 2018. She did such a great job that we used her as our listing agent when we were ready to sell the condo in 2020. We could not recommend Laura more. She was honest and thorough in her initial assessment of the market and recommended some important upgrades to help the sale. As we were out-of-state sellers, she managed the renovations, the contractors, the showings, and the marketing with such grace that it felt as though we were her only clients. In fact, the opposite was true! Laura was extremely responsive - always available by phone, text, or email. I only wish she were licensed where we live now so we could use her to purchase a home." - Jessica

★★★★★
"As a first time homebuyer, my wife and I are quite green with the whole process. We've talked to a few people who are deciding/undergoing the same process, and all of them referred different people whom they've worked with. Among the list of referred agents, we looked at Laura's profile, and our initial thought was that she's going to be a great agent for us! So we talked to her initially for a few mins, and we decided to partner with her on our journey to find our new home. And our decision was on point! Laura has a great work ethic, always punctual and keeps us up-to-date with what's happening as frequently as she can. Her experience and instinct in the world of realty honed by living and working in the DMV area gave us insights we would've never known if we didn't partner with her, which were critical to the success of our home-hunting process. And her ability to sense what we are looking for, and our strategy of viewing one house after another gave us an even better approach in getting the right property that meets our needs. And once we started the closing process, she never left our side, ensuring that everything that needs to be handled and accounted for are dealt with swiftly and smoothly! We definitely recommend her for similar first-time home buyers like ourselves! Her warm and friendly aura will definitely keep you at ease, giving you the assurance that she got your back!" - Carlos

★★★★★
"I had an incredible experience working with Laura. As a first time homebuyer, I was very overwhelmed by the process of purchasing a condo, especially in such a competitive market and while weathering a global pandemic. But, Laura was patient and extremely knowledgeable and saw me through every step of the way. She knew the ins and outs of all of the various neighborhoods I was looking into, she noticed things about each unit that I never would have, and she gave great advice on how to make my offer as competitive as possible; I managed to get such a great price that my lender forwent appraisal. I love my new home and would recommend Laura to anyone." - Sophie

★★★★★
"Laura was absolutely amazing to work with and we would recommend her in a heartbeat! We were first time homebuyers and she helped us navigate the process with ease. She was incredibly knowledgable, from what to look for in a home, to navigating a competitive negotiation process, to closing the home in record speed. We felt comforted throughout knowing that she clearly had our interest at heart - she never hesitated to give her honest assessment of the homes we visited, whether good or bad, and often pointed out things we never would have noticed ourselves. She also knew the area very well - we started our home buying process thinking we wanted to buy in one area, but ultimately bought in a neighborhood we hadn't been familiar with but which she had recommended based upon our needs and interests. We couldn't be happier that she pointed us in that direction! When it came time to put in an offer, she was very communicative (texting with us at all hours!) and helped coach us successfully to make a reasonable but competitive offer in a multi-bid (6!) situation. Also, just to note that she is incredibly friendly and personable and a joy to see homes with! We are hopeful this is our forever home, but would definitely pick her again if we were to buy again!" - Anna

★★★★★
"With Laura, buying in the ultra-competitive DMV region wasn’t an ordeal at all—it was downright pleasant. She was friendly, communicative, listened to our questions and worked with our schedule. She is an inventory master and constantly showed us places we hadn’t been able to find on our own. Laura has an easy positivity that calmed our nerves during the offer process and a competitive edge that helped us get our better offer in—faster than anyone else. We would definitely work with her again and offer our strongest recommendation that you do too!" - Mark

★★★★★
"Laura was terrific. Her professionalism toward first-time home buyers like my wife and I was of tremendous value. We appreciated her attention to detail, her willingness to be patient with our questions, and her ability to help us navigate the purchasing process. Laura was impressive, her expertise is strong, she was responsive even during off-hours, and was excellent in negotiating for us. We would certainly recommend Laura." - Mansoor

★★★★★
"Laura is a high-energy real estate agent with deep connections across the DC real estate marketplace. She is one of the most kind, courteous and effective professionals I know. She sold our home and found us a new one in a way that responded to all of our family's goals." - Uwe

★★★★★
"Laura made buying AND selling AND buying a new house a pleasure. She and her team are so knowledgeable, professional, and organized I would not even consider using any other realtor in the future. Laura is detail oriented, informed, on top of all deadlines, an excellent negotiator, and a really great person. She went above and beyond in every aspect of the process, turning what can be a very stressful experience and time into a breeze. I've recommended Laura to friends and family and would not hesitate to do so again." - Sam

★★★★★
"Laura is amazing! We had a really complicated close with property line dispute/unmarketable title and she was literally working hours and hours for over a week to try to solve it. Ultimately we were able to close and get an offer that made sense for the complications we’d be taking on. She went way above and beyond anything another realtor would do. I would never recommend anyone else - Laura is by far the best realtor I have ever met or worked with." - Jaclyn

★★★★★
"Laura was a fantastic agent and from the start, knowledgeable, responsive, and communicated the process and approach she and her partner would take to sell our condo. She knew how to navigate a sale during COVID and the best way to promote our property online during the stay at home order and unrest in the area. Laura had a great eye for how to best stage the condo and ensure it looked great when she did the showings. She also did a great job negotiating and presenting buyer offers to us." - Kenny

"Laura is incredible!!! She's super responsive and knows the process inside and out. And when it's time to make and offer and write a contract, she moves at cheetah-speed to make it happen. She is THE BEST!" - Alex
