Jonathan Bartlett gave me a whole new understanding of what it means to be a real estate agent. He is a teacher, a cheerleader, a walking encyclopedia of housing knowledge, and the most wonderfully, kind and patient person. I worked with him in purchasing my first home. From the very beginning he spent all the time we needed to walk us through the processes and paperwork, answering any and all of our questions. He always made us feel comfortable and fully prepared for whatever came our way in this crazy market. During our home tours, he would point out both the good and bad and was up front when a house might need more work than we were comfortable with. We never felt pressured to put an offer in on a house when we weren’t ready and he always followed our lead. He also has a massive network of DC contractors and experts in their field who he could ask a question if we needed a bit more information about what we were getting into. Beyond just his real estate knowledge, what make Jonathan the best person to work with, is that he knows exactly when to give you the confidence prep talk to go for something and how to encourage you and build you back up when something doesn’t go your way. We started our housing journey right as the DC market went crazy during COVID and definitely had ups and downs as we competed for houses. But Jonathan always helped us put our best foot forward for each offer and put the time in to understand the little things the seller might want that could put our offer over the edge. We felt supported at every step of the way and consider Jonathan not just our agent but he’s now become a trusted friend through this process. From always being willing to see a house no matter how last minute to making you laugh and enjoy what can be a scary process, Jonathan has the local expertise, the personality, and the network to help you succeed. We couldn’t be happier!

Phil Di Ruggiero of GreenLine Real Estate has been an incredible partner throughout the sale of my condo in Petworth. He was able to quickly sell my place within a week.
He assessed my property on his first visit to see what improvements were needed, advised on priority touchups, and even provided a list of contractors to facilitate the work. Phil also utilized his sharp marketing and design skills to photograph each room with high definition, provide a blueprint, and a virtual home tour for prospects to view digitally. Fortunately for in my case, he said that my furniture was actually aesthetically pleasing enough to use for staging, so we didn't have to rent furniture or put anything in storage.
Phil set up several open houses once all the maintenance work was done and did a great job leveraging his contacts across his network, advertising on numerous channels, etc. There was significant traffic and more importantly, the prospectives he brought in were generally informed and interested based on the marketing collateral that Phil produced.
After a couple of showings, the offers started rolling in and Phil was very helpful in providing guidance on how much we could negotiate with the potential buyers. We countered once and it was accepted very quickly, and were able to close by the month end.
All in all, Phil stayed calm and positive throughout the hectic process and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a home in the DC area.

Tom Spier at Greenline was fantastic! His expert advice was the only reason we are now in our dream house. He helped put together a winning offer, even though it wasn't the highest bid! Then he helped sell our existing property in a very challenging market. He kept us posted about all developments and answered our questions immediately. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tom and the Greenline team to anyone!

Tom is a fantastic real estate agent. I have used him twice and was very pleased both times. I have sent many friends and clients his way over the years to their delight and success time and time again. I highly recommend using Tom and his team.

Phil Di Ruggiero of GreenLine Real Estate is an exceptional real estate professional. He very quickly sold my Park View DC rowhome in August of 2020 for $100,000 over list price. Before sale, he advised on repairs to make (and, helpfully, those not necessary to make) to best position our home for sale and even tradesmen to do the work. He helped us prepare our house for marketing photos and the open house by recommending different furniture configuration and layout approaches. He is a whiz with marketing, both formally and informally through his strong network in the DC real estate community. My husband and I knew we wanted to find our new house before we listed our old one. Through a slow search and a pandemic, Phil remained patient and upbeat. When we were ready to jump, he provided strategic direction on how to successfully buy in a (very) competitive market. And then he quickly sold our house for $100,000 over list price with 9 offers in just one weekend once we had lined up our new home. A win/win all around.
Phil said at the beginning he hoped we would be clients and friends and by the end of the process, our mutual respect and collegiality grew to meet that. While we had a specific situation with specific needs, I have no doubt that Phil and his colleagues at GreenLine Real Estate could handle any situation. I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in the DC area.

Tom Spier is an exceptional realtor. He got my wife and I top $$ for our Columbia Height condo in a low traffic, soft market. He is extremely intelligent, knowledgeable and great at providing objective guidance, not just what you want to hear. We moved from DC to NOVA and he knows the entire area. Whereas a lot of agents are licensed in both but don't really know NOVA that well. Tom goes the extra mile to offer his own very specific local analysis vs just on line tools. We will use him again and have already recommended him.
David Ramsey
I used Tom Spier to both buy, and then 9 years later, sell my condo in DC and I cannot recommend an agent with more enthusiasm. During the buying process, Tom probably took me to see more than 100 properties and never once did I get a sense that he was fed up with me nor did he pressure me to settle for a place that wasn't what I wanted. He is very knowledgeable on all things DC. He provided valuable insight into concerns with structural/mechanical considerations when looking at properties and always had a contractor to call to ask questions if he didn't know the answer.
Tom and his resources were also invaluable as I needed to prepare my condo as an out of state seller. He was able to locate, schedule, and manage all the prep work required to get the condo into shape. His services saved me SO much time and money and made the selling process super easy and convenient. I cannot say enough about how helpful Tom was in the process and what a good guy he is to work with from start to finish. Look no further for your next agent!
James A-G
We often say that we would trust our lives with Tom, and that's 100% true. He knows the DC-MD-VA area front to back and always puts his clients' interests first; he is extremely dedicated, hard-working, and responsive.
His years of experience and deep knowledge of the area were shown off so many times during our real estate search, when he steered us away from trouble or towards good options; he also patiently explained nuances of the process which we didn't know before and turned out to be life-savers.
This is the 3rd consecutive real estate transaction that we have done with Tom - we have complete confidence in everything he does and wouldn't have looked anywhere else. Seriously, just get Tom, you will not regret it. He's the best!

Jonathan Bartlett is an extraordinary agent. Jonathan was kind, generous, and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to get me the best house and negotiated a financial deal that got me a bit of money back at closing. Incredible. Most importantly, inventory was low but Jonathan didn’t let me give up on my dream house specs and in the end, I got what I wanted. In fact, I wasn’t even going to look at this home until Jonathan headed to it on my behalf. He listened to me and found my dream home. He went the extra mile in every way and I could not be happier with my home or with the experience.
Amy Walker
As a first time homebuyer, Jonathan Bartlett was great to work with. Jonathan's knowledge of the Washington, DC area and DC real estate market is deep, which made him an extremely helpful guide throughout the process. Jonathan was always quick to respond to my many questions about various properties and the buying process, and was able to set up viewings quickly. Jonathan also used viewings to convey helpful information about what sorts of maintenance best practices to look for while viewing a property. Once I landed on a property, the transaction was seamless due to Jonathan's fast work in pulling together an offer that beat out a number of other offers and his guidance in negotiating price and repairs by the seller. Jonathan made the stressful process of buying a home fun and informative!

Phil Di Ruggiero and GreenLine Real Estate were terrific. My partner and I met Phil at an open house when we we were still in the browsing stage and were impressed with his knowledge and with GreenLine’s commitment to diversity and the local community. We ended up taking the first time home buyers class, which was a great crash course on all the essentials of home buying. Phil walked us through every step of the process and had great insight on neighborhoods and value and helpful ideas about each home’s potential, from interior design to future renovations. When it was time to put in offers, he was thoughtful, strategic and incredibly quick to put together the documentation. To top it off, he’s a nice, genuine guy who is fun to spend time with (and also has excellent taste in classic sports cars!). We couldn’t be happier with our new home and look forward to using GreenLine again for our next move!
Jared Lipman
Jonathan Bartlett was extremely great at his job, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone (and already have recommended him to others). I originally was referred to Jonathan by a friend who had worked with him in his search process, and Jonathan did an outstanding job of making sure all issues were solidified ahead of closing.
As a first time home buyer, he helped me feel extremely comfortable throughout the entire process from start to finish. Jonathan was very communicative and responsive in a very timely manner any time I had a question for him. Any time I needed a referral or recommendation he would provide me with multiple options and helpful hints to look out for on anything relating to the home. From a negotiation and buying strategy standpoint, Jonathan has great knowledge of the market, trends, and neighborhoods. Because of his recommendations I was able to tailor my offer to out compete others for the home I loved the most throughout my search process. Overall I found Jonathan to be extremely professional, hard working, and someone who is genuinely easy to get along and communicate with.
Phil Martin
All the stars. I worked with Phil Di Ruggiero at GreenLine Real Estate to sell my Petworth row house in summer 2020. I was a first-time seller and Phil was incredibly helpful from beginning to end. At every step he presented options and tradeoffs and offered a recommendation when I asked for one. He took time to explain things I didn't understand. I never felt like he was too busy for me. Before we listed the house, Phil connected me with a contractor who did an awesome job getting it photo-ready at a reasonable price. Phil was on site managing things and went WAY above and beyond, from trimming an overgrown tree, to picking out new house numbers, to pulling things out of the house that I'd missed the day before listing. After we reviewed multiple offers and accepted the one that seemed best, the buyer ran into a hiccup with their lender, but Phil worked expertly and transparently with the other agent to keep things moving and ensure the buyer got the house and I didn't have to cover the cost of the delay. Win-win. Strongly recommend GreenLine Real Estate.

After having an amazing experience working with Phil Di Ruggiero at GreenLine Real Estate to sell our Petworth row house last summer, we decided to work with him again to buy a new home in the District. So glad we did! Phil set up custom lists for us so we saw everything coming on the market. We went to LOTS of places together. He never tried to push a particular house or neighborhood on us. He just asked good questions to help us get clearer on what we wanted. Phil was totally supportive when we decided to not to outbid another buyer for a house that was already at the top of our price range, even though that meant going back to the drawing board in a super tight market. The experience meant we were ready to go the next time around. After helping us arrange a pre-offer inspection and talking through strategy, Phil helped us write an offer that met the seller's needs and that we thought was fair. We can't wait to move into our new home and are so grateful we worked with Phil @ GreenLine to find it! #Brightwood #RockCreekPark #DCStatehood

I can't recommend Phil DiRuggiero and the team at Greenline Real Estate highly enough. My wife and I were first-time home buyers, and really didn't know what to expect when we first started our home search. We also weren't entirely sure what we were even looking for or what was possible within our budget, given how competitive the market has been.
Phil was incredible. From the very beginning, he walked us through what to expect from the entire process, helped make sense of what we wanted and what we could afford and gave us great advice all along the way.
He was patient, responsive, knowledgeable and the best advocate we could have asked for when it came down to offers and negotiations. He's also just a great person to be around, which is honestly so important given how much time you end up spending and relying on your realtor.
We've been in our new home for close to a month now and could not be happier. We couldn't have done it without Phil.

We met Phil Di Ruggiero at an open house when we were first looking to sell our one-bedroom coop unit and move into a larger space – despite being months away from being ready to list our home and make the new purchase, Phil was proactive about engaging with us and after a couple meetings with him we decided to trust our positive gut feeling and enlist his help and the GreenLine Real Estate team on both the sell and buy sides of our move. From the beginning to the end of the process Phil gave great advice on how to navigate what was promising to be a difficult transaction – we were hoping to sell our coop unit and complete the purchase of our new home essentially simultaneously. Despite coop units having a higher average time on market than condos, Phil marketed the property perfectly and was able to secure an offer at listing price within two weeks of listing – much faster than other comparable coops in the area. On the buy side, when we were in the beginning stages of getting a feel for what we wanted, Phil was patient with us and would typically make himself available the same day for showings. When we were ready to make an offer, he leveraged existing relationships to persuade the sellers to accept a long shot offer that included a home sale contingency and other requests that would have almost certainly been turned down if we didn't have a smooth operator like Phil on our side. In the end, we achieved our goal of both selling our unit and purchasing our dream home on the same day, and Phil handled everything seamlessly until the very end.
We were mostly interested in buying in the Petworth/Park View area, where Phil is definitely an expert, but he also showed us options around other neighborhoods and offered helpful insights, so he surely knows all of DC well. We’re hoping to stay in our new home for many years, but when the time comes we will certainly be working with Phil again, and we’ve already recommended him and the GreenLine Real Estate team to friends looking to purchase their dream home!

I worked with Jonathan Bartlett in buying my first home this fall. He encouraged me to look passively for a while to get a sense of what I liked/didn't like, so we ended up working together for over 6 months. I had several very specific requirements for what I wanted in a home, and Jonathan never showed any impatience at my nitpicking - he understood that this was the biggest purchase of my life and I wanted to feel like I'd gotten it right. As a first-time home buyer, I had many questions about the process, as well as about owning a home in general - he had many answers and lots of advice, and helped me feel more at ease with taking on this huge responsibility. He also encouraged me to look outside DC and consider VA given what I was looking for and my price range, and he was right, as I ended up buying in VA. I appreciated Jonathan's availability while I was looking - I looked at upwards of 20 homes, and he was generally available for a showing within a day (sometimes within hours) of my request. He responded promptly to text messages and phone calls, and was always pleasant and friendly. I also appreciated the small ways he went above and beyond in contacting realtors of homes I was interested in to find out additional details that could help improve an offer. Most of all, I appreciated that at no time did he pressure me to make an offer, even though it took over 6 months for me to find a home. Jonathan also continued to be a resource through the closing process for my questions. I enjoyed working with him, and would recommend him to first-time home buyers looking to feel comfortable in the process.

Working with Dee Getachew of GreenLine Real Estate was an absolute pleasure! When I began my house hunt in the spring of this year, I was completely naive about the logistics of the home buying process, especially how stressful it would be in this current housing market. Thank God I found Dee to help me through this process! From the very beginning she was extremely patient, making sure I had a thorough understanding of what the journey ahead would entail. Throughout my search, my list of needs and wants changed. Dee was patient and helped me prioritize what mattered most to me in my future home. After some disappointments early on in a competitive market, I was honestly ready to give up. Dee reassured me that the right house was out there for me. She was so right. And when I did find the house for me, Dee crafted a competitive offer and negotiated concessions when I didn't think it was even a possibility. I would (and have) recommend her to any and everyone. Thank you, Dee!

Jeremiah at GreenLine provided the best real estate transaction my partner and I have ever experienced. He is personable, honest, patient and incredibly knowledgeable about real estate in the DC region. He is very responsive to calls, questions etc and is an absolute pleasure to work with. The seamless process made finding our new home a breeze and an easy transition into a new city. I highly recommend Jeremiah and GreenLine Real estate to anyone looking to move.

We worked with Tom Spier to purchase a house in DC in August 2020. Tom was instrumental in helping us by our house (in a pandemic no less). He understood exactly what we were looking for and guided us through everything from setting up search parameters to what happens at settlement. He explained what he was doing and why throughout the negotiation to make sure we felt included in the process. What's more - he is incredibly knowledgeable about construction so was able to help us envision and budget for different changes we might want to make. We feel like more educated buyers and now homeowners because of Tom's partnership.
Dan Fichtler
Tom Spier: We had a tremendous experience working with Tom to both buy and sell in the District of Columbia. As we began our search for a new home, Tom was able to help us narrow our criteria and determine which neighborhoods and types of properties would best meet our needs and keep us within our budget. He had great insights into what to look for when viewing a property or an open house, in many cases pointing out potential issues or problems that we never would have considered or realized on our own.
When it came time to put in an offer on a property, Tom walked us through each step of the process, carefully reviewing the pros and cons of different factors. He was invaluable as a negotiator, as well, and we were able to come away with an agreement that was fair and captured everything we were looking for.
As our agent in selling our prior home, Tom was very thorough in helping us manage the process of preparing the property for listing. He assisted us in determining which repairs or improvements would be most worthwhile in terms of increasing our value, referred us to trustworthy contractors, and also stayed on top of the various projects to ensure that we were on schedule for our listing. He also provided great guidance in terms of the staging process, helping us sort through various options.
Following our open house, we received multiple offers very quickly. Again, Tom's negotiation skills were a huge benefit, as we were able to successfully finalize a favorable agreement within just a few days.
Tom was always willing to go the extra mile, whether it was taking our calls late at night, swinging by to check on a contractor while we were at work, or simply reassuring us when potential problems arose. His demeanor is fantastic - he's very down-to-earth and pleasant all the time. We truly enjoyed working with him, not just because of the positive results, but also because of his great personality and obvious enthusiasm.
We would highly recommend Tom to any potential buyers or sellers.

My wife and I met Jonathan Bartlett at an open house in August 2020. We had an agent at the time but were more comfortable going to open houses on our own because we felt the agent pressured use to buy or wasn't in tune with our needs within a home. When we met Jonathan we had an honest connection about the condition of the property (gut renovation) and he was genuinely easy to talk to. He had great attention to detail and pointed out custom areas in the home. We shared our needs and he pointed out easy fixes to the home for added privacy and rental potential.
We called Jonathan the very next morning after the open house and informed him that we had never made an offer and wanted to place a low offer just for experience. He let us know that "the right home would find us" and we didn't have great expectations for landing the property but were willing to go through the whole process. In making our first offer, Jonathan recommended we complete a pre-inspection to strengthen the offer...
We made the first offer on the property, but the home received a higher second offer! However, the inspection provided certainty in closing the deal and our offer was accepted!! We closed in less than 30 days and would never have thought we could get such an amazing home at less than asking price and on our first offer ever!!! We couldn't have done it without Jonathan and are grateful for trusting our gut and Jonathan to help us make the best decision and help throughout the whole ordeal to follow through. Many thanks Jonathan!!!

We had the privilege of being represented by Tom Spier and GreenLine Real Estate during our recent condo sale in Columbia Heights. Tom’s unparalleled expertise, deep market knowledge, and client-centric approach enabled us to secure an offer in record time, at the highest price a one bedroom has sold for in the building’s 110+ year history. My wife and I live in California, and we were concerned about selling the unit remotely during the pandemic, but Tom and his exceptional team prepared and staged it to maximize buyer appeal. We can’t recommend GreenLine Real Estate highly enough, and look forward to referring others to Tom and his agency in the future.
William Tucker
I attended GreenLine's virtual First Time Home Buyer seminar, and got lots of valuable information from the event. They had great recommendations about programs available to help with down payments, information about local market conditions, tips on making a winning offer, etc. After the seminar I feel more confident about moving forward in purchasing my first home.
Cristina Marín
I highly recommend Jonathan Bartlett.
Our experience as new home buyers was amazing and the process went smoothly counting on how stressful this process normally is.
Jonathan made it so easy, always very responsive, kind, and willing to explain to us everything we didn’t understand. We were looking for homes for about a year until we met Jonathan, and 1 month later, we were new homeowners.
We didn’t like the approach of other agents, pushy and aggressive and that didn’t get us a good feeling. With Jonathan that was different, he wanted to understand our needs, and what we liked the most, was that we felt like he didn’t want to sell to us, he wanted to help us.
Even tho, we weren’t looking for an agent, when we walked into the open house, he happened to be there and we knew he was the one we wanted to work with. We beat the competition, winning the house that we now call home!!!

Phil Di Ruggiero of GreenLine Real Estate is the third agent that I have worked with, and he is without question the best! Before working with Phil, I considered my prior experiences with other agents to be positive. My friends had similar experiences with their agents. But after working with Phil, I realized that many agents are paper pushers–they simply make appointments, fill out form contracts, and explain the process. With Phil, you’re getting an experienced advisor and counselor; someone who represents your best interests. If he thinks a house is overpriced, he will tell you. He will point out issues that you are overlooking, even if it means you will not put in an offer. Of course you don’t have to follow his advice, but you’ll be making a much more informed decision because of it. Simply put, Phil isn’t just trying to collect his commission–he wants you to make the best and most informed decision so that you are comfortable with the big commitment you're about to enter.
Phil is able to provide this top-notch service because he doesn’t just know DC real estate–he knows houses. Like most agents, Phil can talk to you about location, schools, crime rates, etc. But he’s also going to educate you about the house itself. During one open house, he knew that termites were common in the area, and he pointed out hidden termite damage that I would have never noticed. Another time, Phil noticed the yard was sloped, looked at the gutters, and walked down the slope to the detached garage and found water damage to the siding, which meant not only fixing the damage but needing to install adequate drainage. He always examines the quality of the windows, the landscaping, the age of the HVAC and water heaters, and the roof condition. And when he doesn’t have the answers, he’ll raise the issue during the pre-inspection if you’re able to schedule one—and you might not in this market, which is why Phil’s insights helped us so much in assessing the value of the homes we were looking at.
Phil is also different because he not only tries to understand your criteria for a home, but he tries to understand your vision. With other agents, you tell them the type of property you’re looking for, the neighborhoods you’re interested in, and your budget. Then, they create a search for you, and from that list you tell them what properties you want to see. With Phil, that’s only the beginning. After each showing, he took the time to learn what we liked, what we didn’t like, and whether the house made us think differently about our search. He then used that knowledge to proactively find opportunities. Phil would go look at a property that hit the market just hours earlier, without us asking or even knowing, to see if the house might be of interest to us. Phil drove around neighborhoods and leveraged his relationships with other agents to find the right off-market opportunities. Because Phil actually understood our thinking, and not just number of bedrooms, sq ft, etc., he was able to hustle and find the right home for us.
Finally, Phil knows how to close the deal. Sure, the main factor for sellers will be price. But in a competitive market, Phil knows how to elevate your offer. He’ll have the lender contact the seller to vouch for your ability to secure financing. Phil will get a sense from the agents about what the sellers are looking for in a buyer, so that you can tailor your offer (and your letter to the seller) to hit those points. And, Phil will contact the seller’s agents to sell them on you. We actually met the seller of our house after closing, and she said she knew right away that she wanted to sell the house to us because of the package we put together, and in fact she chose our offer over an all-cash buyer at the same price point. Sure, other sellers might not have bypassed an all-cash buyer, but because of Phil, we put our best foot forward and ultimately landed our dream house.
I really can’t say enough good things about Phil. Buying a home is a big commitment, and you need someone like Phil who will have your back!
Gwen Stamper
Phil DiRuggiero helped me purchase my condo in 2014, and he helped me sell the condo in 2020. Phil is nothing short of exceptional. Through every step of the process, Phil exceeded my (very demanding) expectations. Because of Phil, within five days of putting my condo on the market, I received multiple offers above asking price during a pandemic and a heat wave.
Phil is a true professional who loves his craft and cares deeply about his clients. To know Phil is to know that he lives and breathes DC real estate, and that he will go to any length for his clients. At all times, Phil is available and responsive. He frequently responded to my 6 am text messages and late-night phone calls. Phil also made a point to be present at the condo far more often than I would have expected. He came out for an initial visit to discuss what repairs to make and the most cost-effective way to make them, he came out with the photographer to make sure she captured all the correct angles, he came out during the open house and showings, and he came out to tour the property with the appraiser. Phil even stopped by to drop off flowers before the open house when I couldn’t pick up the flowers.
Phil’s deep expertise in the DC real estate market includes decades of experience and strong relationships with other agents. He is outstanding with people and has valuable relationships all over town. For example, he helped me prepare for the sale by putting me in touch with an excellent contractor and cleaning service that gave me a fantastic rate because I was working with Phil. As a result, not only did Phil get us thousands of dollars over our asking price, he saved us thousands of dollars in preparing for the sale. Also in preparing for the sale, Phil’s on-line and printed marketing materials were outstanding, and he knew the exact photographer and photos to use to make the condo look its best.
In addition to being an outstanding agent, Phil is a genuinely good person. He was patient and kind in guiding me through the very stressful process. It isn’t common to find true professionals who are so devoted to their clients and their craft. The sale of my condo was the third real-estate transaction I’ve done with Phil, and I feel so lucky and so grateful for everything he’s done for me and my family.

Jonathan Barlett's experience, professionalism, and practical advice made buying our first home as stress free as possible. He is great to work with, and I with recommended to anyone looking for a home in the DC area.
Tremayne Youmans
Tom is awesome. He was patient and made me feel confident during the home buying process. He is knowledgeable and responsive which was huge for me in such a competitive market. In the end, I couldn’t be happier with the house I bought, the closing deal, and my experience with Tom. What makes me even happier is after buying my place, I can still call Tom for home improvement advice or lunch. He is just that kind of guy.
Mai El-Sadany
We were so lucky to work with Rabih Chamas to find our dream home in Washington, DC! Even amid such a competitive market, Rabih provided exactly what we needed and more. He was a remarkable listener, stayed on top of communication, sent us listings and set up home viewings in such a timely fashion, always prioritized his clients, remained extremely organized and solutions-oriented, and made every step of an otherwise complicated process proceed so smoothly. We can't recommend him enough!
Lindsay Lam
As first-time homebuyers, we were fortunate to have Adam Palmer from GreenLine as our realtor. He explained every detail to us in a language we could understand and was extremely proactive about communicating and preparing us for the next step in the process. He was great as presenting us multiple scenarios and options so we always felt confident in the decisions we were making. We highly recommend Adam and if you choose him as your real estate agent you can take comfort in knowing you have a real advocate!
Jennifer Moisi
Tom Spier from Green Line real estate listed and sold our Columbia Heights condo this year. Great advice on preparing for the sale (touch-ups, staging), pricing and negotiation with buyers as well as the settlement process itself. Tom really went above and beyond to provide the support we needed - there were many complexities as we live abroad and went on the market just before the COVID lockdown. We cannot thank him enough!
Bhavya Gowda
I couldn't recommend Tom Spier highly enough!! I worked with Phil Di Ruggiero and him for the purchase (2015) and sale (2020) of my DC condo. Tom was always quick to respond to my inquiries (or others involved in the sale process) and highly knowledgeable about the local market -- even when selling during a pandemic. His recommendations during negotiations were always productive and led to a successful outcome. When we are in the market to purchase our next home, Tom will be the first person we call!

My wife and I first heard of Green Line Real Estate in 2018 when we attended a free Homebuyer's Workshop and met Dee Getachew. Dee lived in our same neighborhood and we had a great conversation about what we liked about the neighborhood and where we were in the home buying process, which at the time was just getting an understanding of the complicated process. Two years later we were ready to buy and got back in contact with Dee. With it being the fall of the pandemic, we were unsure about what the housing market would be like and Dee was very informative and patient with us as we slowly looked around at neighborhoods and houses we might be interested in. We ended up putting two offers in on homes and got the second one. Through both those processes Dee was very attentive and helpful walking us through the steps and really putting in the hard work on quick deadlines. In our current house that we ended up buying she worked very diligently to negotiate the price with the selling agent and helped us to understand all the conditions of the deal. Throughout, we were very thankful for the work Dee put in not only to make the purchase happen but to also make us feel comfortable about what we were doing. We are extremely happy now in our new place thanks to her!

I enthusiastically recommend Tom Spier (Greenline) as a real estate agent. My wife and I were first-time buyers, and Tom was extremely helpful at every step along the way. Friendly and accommodating, Tom initially met with us for about an hour to explain the whole process of buying a home from start to finish, and gave us detailed examples of what kinds of questions we should consider from the outset. In addition he walked us through all of the paperwork that we could expect to encounter at various stages. With decades of experience in the DC area, Tom was a great source of knowledge about not only the process of buying a home, but about the latest trends in the highly competitive DC market. In addition, he is available basically 24/7, responding to all emails/calls/texts in very quick fashion (I honestly don’t know when he finds time to sleep).
We weren’t on a tight timeline to buy a home, and so we really appreciated that Tom was patient with us as we saw many houses over several months with him. He always worked around our schedule (we have a toddler) to make sure we could see the houses we were interested with him, which was a great relief. Tom is extremely thorough when visiting homes, and he has a deep knowledge of construction and codes. For example, while our eyes were being dazzled by a sparkly new kitchen, Tom was rooting around in the basement checking on the state of the electric panel, inspecting the age of the hot water tank, finding evidence of leaks and water damage in unexpected nooks and crannies, etc. He is very adept at assessing the state of the structure of houses, not just the glossy finishes.
When it came time to put an offer in, Tom was super on top of things. He immediately pulled the paperwork together (we did everything over e-sign, which is conveniently usable with mobile devices for signing documents), even speaking with our lender directly when we had a question that the lender couldn’t answer clearly. Tom’s depth of experience makes him a great strategist and negotiator, which really came in handy when putting together our competitive offer, and in negotiating other costs.
Once our offer was accepted, Tom quickly coordinated the inspection with a trusted colleague that he’s worked with for years, and he even brought in a plumber and an electrician to get more professional assessments of specific areas that needed to be fixed, along with estimates and invoices that we used to negotiate for repair costs at settlement. Because Tom was so thorough in making the case for repair credits, the sellers gave us every dollar we asked for and didn’t even try to negotiate us down!
In summary, Tom is an excellent real-estate agent. As first-time buyers, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. If you’re looking to take the stress out of buying a home, and you want to get a great deal on the house that’s right for you, Tom Spier is your guy!

I highly recommend GreenLine Real Estate. I attended a first-time homebuyer session . and was impressed from the moment I entered the office. They were very welcoming, knowledgeable, organized, and provided excellent speakers--both professionals and actual homebuyers--to educate us on the joys and pitfalls of homebuying. I consulted with the lender who presented and benefited greatly from the nuts-and-bolts talk about contracts. I selected Tom Spier as my realtor and it seemed there was no part of DC he didn't know. He was able to provide history on condo buildings I looked at, neighborhoods, amenities, and was very patient during my year-long search. I was very pleased with his negotiating skills and calm demeanor. I never felt lost or alone in the process. The stress of making such a big purchase was ameliorated by Tom's presence and advice. He never pressured me to buy. when I finally made an offer, I knew it was a good choice for me. And when I purchased my condo, there were 10 competing offers and the guidance Tom provided on how to improve my offer is what helped put me in my home today. Thank you to GreenLine Real Estate. High quality realtors, local knowledge, super accessible. A wonderful homebuying experience!

Thomas Spier (Tom) first help my wife and I buy a house 15 years ago after a long search. His unwavering patience as we looked at dozens of properties made a natural choice for us to choose him again to sell our home in 2019. Having our house as a rental for 8 years meant it required quite a few repairs to prepare it for the market; Tom has an extensive list of service providers that he has worked with over the years assist his clients in this area. Furthermore, Tom spearheaded the painters, carpet installers, cleaners, previous property manager, gardeners and furniture staging as we were living overseas at the time. On top of that, Tom himself went over to the house to pick up a few remnants of yard debris, switch out light bulbs and add a few extra touches prior to the open house.
Regarding the actually selling of our property, we were fortunate to sell it for $56,000 above asking with 7 offers off just one open house. Again, I was traveling and we had to negotiate this process through a three way phone tree between myself, my wife, and Tom while dealing with a 11.5 hour time difference.
What also sets Tom apart is his extensive relationships with other agents which makes a huge difference when considering offers. The quality of your agent ensures that your offer will be taken seriously by seller and Tom's reputation in the DC/MD/VA area will serve you well. Our only regret is that we moved back to the West Coast and will not be able to use Tom in the future

Kharye did a great job every step of the way. From sitting down with us to educate us on the home buying process to final negotiations and closing, he kept us informed and optimistic. He did a great job managing our expectations, and keeping an eye on the market with us in mind. He knew what we wanted and found us a perfect house before it made it onto the market. Because of that, we were able to make an offer and get under contract before it ever hit the open market. A+, would agent again.
Michelle Larson
Lorielle Akintunde at GreenLine Real Estate is an excellent realtor! As first time home buyers, the entire experience was overwhelming and so foreign to us at the beginning. However, Lorielle is very knowledgeable, and she explained the process so well that she immediately put us at ease. She took our wants and our budget and focused only on homes that met those criteria. She was very honest with us and didn't hide anything. When we did finally select a home, she was amazing at negotiating on our behalf and got us the best deal we could have hoped for. We are so grateful that our first home purchase was such a positive and smooth experience, thanks to Lorielle!

Hop on the Greenline!
We recommend Greenline Real Estate to anyone considering or committed to buying a home in DC. In fact, we have recommended them to our family and friends currently considering purchasing a home In DC. We started our home pursuit in February 2020 and we met and interviewed several agents. We lost three offers on homes because our representing agents did not really understand the state of the buying market and were not sufficiently engaged with us or the buying process. We were about eight months into our home search and then we met Phil. Phil took the time to understand our needs/wants, developed a plan, and explained how we would need to proceed to secure a home we could love. Within two months we were under contract on an off market home being renovated and now we are in our new home and love it! We wouldn’t be here without Phil, the Greenline team, and all the other amazing people Phil introduced us to throughout this process. Thanks Phil and Greenline.

Tom Spier is excellent and I would highly recommend Greenline Real Estate. I would have been completely lost as a first time homebuyer without Tom's expertise, professionalism and thoughtful guidance. I had countless questions and concerns and Tom answered/addressed all of them seamlessly. He was extremely responsive and detail oriented, two qualities that I appreciated throughout the entire experience of home buying! At closing, even the sellers commented on how impressed they were with the spectrum of Tom's professionalism, from submission of our offer to his daily correspondence with the seller's agent. I would highly recommend Tom and Greenline Real Estate - you will be happy with your choice!

I used Sebastian to buy my first home in Washington DC and he was outstanding. Sebastian is the best realtor I have ever had! They say the 3rd time’s the charm….and he was just that-the 3rd and the best. If you are particular (aka picky) like I am and require the assistance of someone who is nonjudgmental (at least not to your face lol), patient, understanding and open to your very specific needs and ideas, Sebastian is the one for you. He is the perfect realtor for first time home buyers. He is extremely knowledgeable about the home buying process, as well as various first time home buyers programs. He was recommended to me by a friend who had an equally professional/pleasant experience working with him.
Here’s the thing- you’ll never feel more lost than when you’re purchasing your first home- no matter how smart you are. Sebastian was able to recommend the right people (Title Company, mortgage folks, cleaners etc.) which helped me to build the right team. He was also able to help me to recognize mistakes and ask the right questions to make sure I was getting the best deal.
In short, Sebastian was always on my side, working to make my house purchase as simple and successful as possible. The best part about working with Sebastian was that he was always more focused on answering my questions, giving me good advice, and finding homes that met my needs, rather than on him closing a deal. I never felt like he cared more about making his commission than finding me the right home. In fact, on more than one occasion he stared me away from the wrong home. I now consider Sebastian a friend and would highly recommend him to anyone that is searching for a new home.
Monique Fortenberry
Tom Spier is an ethical, committed, and persistent agent, who knows the industry inside and out, is dedicated to meeting your home selling or buying needs, and will not quit until you are happily living in a home you love. Two years ago, Tom sold my house in a matter of days. He helped me navigate multiple offers, and created an entire selling process I felt good about. Earlier this year, he helped me find a condo, after we searched for just the right place for me for one and a half years. Yes, he is that patient, because his work is about more that completing transactions. He genuinely cares about people, and wants them to be happy in their homes. I give Tom my highest recommendation, and if I ever bought or sold a home again, there would be only one person for me to call -- Tom Spier.
Shawn Dunning
Tom Spier has become a trusted friend, advisor, and best possible agent in both buying and selling that anyone could hope for. No question was too small, and no problem was too big. Though Tom always made sure I was in charge, he was my skilled agent through several complex transactions for which I felt like I was trusting him with my life! At times, when I was several thousand miles out of town, I knew the process was both in good hands and eyes with Tom on my side. You can't go wrong with Tom Spier and Greenline!
May Fam
My family had the pleasure of working with Tammy Davis of GreenLine. Tammy's thoughtful and customer-oriented approach to helping us find our new home ensured that we got the best house for our needs. I never felt rushed, or that my opinion wasn't valued. I always felt supported and heard. I'd definitely recommend Tammy and the GreenLine Shaw team for anyone searching for a home.
Chrissy Fehskens
Just purchased my first home using GreenLine Real Estate and could not have had a better experience! I was impressed with the professionalism, knowledge and responsiveness of their team. My agent, Sebastian, really went above and beyond to ensure that I was comfortable and confident through the entire buying process. As a first time home buyer, it meant a lot to have everything handled so smoothly and with such personal attention – I highly recommend them!
Carrie Westbrook
Jeremiah offered lots of options in multiple price ranges and styles. He noticed similar likes and dislikes we had with the properties and was quick to mention other properties we may be interested in and also offer helpful bits of information about the neighborhoods, growing up in DC himself, he was able to offer multiple perspectives. Jeremiah was very responsive via phone and email, answering all questions, being first time homebuyers, we had a lot. He was also very accommodating to our hectic schedules.
John E. Ross
Tom Spier helped me with the purchase of a condo in Virginia and I can't say enough good things about the experience. The entire process was painless and Tom was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and trustworthy. If you need a realtor in the DMV area, you should definitely give him cla call!
The Careys
Hassan Symes is a great guy and was an outstanding realtor for us. He is easy to work with, smart, knowledgeable, thorough and very likeable. Hassan was able to sell our Silver Spring, Maryland townhouse for us in a very short period of time. He recommended upgrades/repairs, put us in touch with excellent professionals, made closing quite simple for us and was available to answer questions for us whenever we had any. He knows about how to price real estate appropriately, he spends lots of time with his clients and he genuinely cares about pleasing those he works with. I give Mr. Symes the highest recommendation and urge those looking for a realtor to meet with him. You will be on your way to a happy, successful real estate transaction.
Cara Dilts
Just sold my house with Tom, who also helped me buy the same house almost 10 years before. I moved overseas and knew when it came time to sell that I would definitely use Tom again, as I had had such a good experience with him when buying the house. A good decision! Selling a house is stressful in normal circumstances, but even more so when you live far away and can't take care of the details personally and the time difference makes things more difficult... Tom went above and beyond to help me out- fronting the expenses for painting, cleaning, hauling away trash, etc. He even personally mowed the lawn and did whatever it took to have the place looking it's best. He was always available - via phone or email - and basically I knew I could trust him and that he was looking out for my interests. Very very happy with Tom, and I would recommend him to anyone- either for selling or buying a home.
Reza Parvizi
I have had the pleasure of knowing Tom Spier of GreenLine Real Estate for six years. He is by far the best realtor I have worked with. He has been above and beyond an ideal realtor for all my purchases and sales. Tom has negotiated many transactions for me and my family and friends. Not one disappointing experience and he has spent relentless hours, day and night negotiating and working out details of some complicated transactions for me and my clients. Tom Spier is a true professional with many years of experience in DC metropolitan area. His flawless knowledge of real estate, building construction and attention to every small detail of the deal and focus on his clients needs along with a genuine caring attitude along with being truly dedicated to his profession makes him unique in his field.
I would highly recommend Tom Spier and will always be grateful for his unrivalled professionalism and commitment, help and advice throughout the years. He has always taken away the stress of buying and selling out of transactions by his dedication and attention to detail. Tom is simply one of a kind realtor.
Sarah Thornton
Bobby helped me navigate a competitive DC market including creative offer options that ultimately helped me purchase my first house. Bobby was very patient and response to my many questions. He helped me understand the banking process, was able to communicate to my loan officer on my behalf, and spent extra time ensuring I understood each step of the buying process. He continues to provide advice and guidance as I plan to rent my old condo. Bobby is personable and hard working and truly wanted to ensure that my purchase would be a perfect fit for my needs.
Eamon Nolan
I worked with Rabih Chamas. Process was very simple and easy. Rabih was excellent - willing to visit the property numerous times around my schedule and coordinated everything that happens in the background with my awareness. He knew the neighborhood well and provided insights into what it is like to live there. He also helped me after I moved manage final items that required coordination with the developer. Super straight forward and friendly home buying process.
Tatjana Sharif-Sanluis
GreenLine Real Estate was a great match for us in helping us sell our home. Our agent Rabih Chamas was outstanding in helping us through the process of selling and did a great job in representing us. He was always accessible and made us feel at ease with the whole process. His local market knowledge is spot on and with his help we got our home sold very fast and for a competitive price. I will go back to GreenLine and especially Rabih to buy/sell for sure!
Kai Nugen
Hassan Symes recently helped to sell my one bedroom condo in Petworth. As this was the first time I sold a home, I was unsure of the process but Hassan walked me every step of the way from getting it fixed up, staged, cleaned, etc. Also, for a busy professional, the majority of the paperwork was done electronically which great. Hassan was also very responsive to any questions I or the potential buyers had and kept me updated on the progress. I also appreciated his thorough analysis on the market and his conversations regarding setting realistic expectations. My unit sold in 6 days and I could not be more please with the outcome and the level of service.
Arjun Durr
Dee Getachew was wonderful to work with and helped us secure our first home! As first time home buyers the process can be extremely overwhelming, but Dee "coached" us every step of the way. She was readily available via email, text and call, and we always felt supported. It was an added bonus getting her and her Greenline team. She's very personable, relatable and will give you honest feedback!
Dan Butala
As a first time home buyer, Bobby Taylor was a tremendous help. Bobby took the time to listen to my needs, understand what was important to me, and worked diligently to find me the perfect home. Most importantly, Bobby took the time to educate me and answer all of my questions along the entire process. When I closed on my first home I felt confident I had made the right decision. I can't thank Bobby enough for all of the help, patience, and knowledge. I highly recommend Bobby and will be using him again in the near future.
Behdad Sanai
Hassan Symes was an amazing realtor. Me and my wife wanted to sell our house in Washington DC, but we had already moved to California and this was our first time selling a home. Hassan took charge and walked us through the whole process and helped out with all the details that needed to be done, while we were living in California. We were able to have a smooth experience, even though we had to deal with TOPA and not actually being in Washington DC for the selling process. I would recommend Hassan Symes to sell your home any day.
Mat Williams
Fruzsina helped us buy our first home and we have nothing but rave reviews for her. She is smart and knowledgeable about the DC market and what details to look for regarding the construction of a home. She also has vision of what “could be” given some cosmetic changes. She is incredibly thorough, thoughtful, patient and hard working. She also would make a fantastic therapist! We don’t miss the process but we miss working with Fruszina!
Alessandro Ramirez
Excellent service and professionalism by Hassan. We bought a new construction property. Hassan was very patient throughout the whole process and took the time to explain the buying procedure for new construction homes and also provided valuable suggestions while negotiating with the builder. Hassan is very honest and isn’t pushy. He gives his honest opinions and enables buyers to make their independent decisions. When buying a home, you want the realtor to be persistent and reachable. Hassan is a great communicator and would let me know if he was going to be unreachable for a couple of hours but he always found a way to communicate with me. Hassan is personable, competent and a confident guy that we felt comfortable with. Hassan was with us every step of the way. His expertise, timely communication, trustworthiness, and care is why I highly recommend Hassan as an agent. Hassan will continue to be my first choice when we are ready to purchase our second home!
Louis Glazer
I loved working with Fruzsina and Rabih!
Rabih had incredible knowledge of the neighborhoods, and he always found excellent properties to show me. I valued his honest and straightforward thoughts and advice on each property we toured.
Fruzsina is an amazing agent. She worked tirelessly for me at all hours, always remaining positive and excited about the work. She was extremely patient with me as I needed plenty of extra guidance as a first time homebuyer. Fruzsina went way above and beyond my expectations in order to provide me with the best experience and help me buy the best home!
I highly recommend GreenLine for anyone looking for motivated, flexible, honest, and friendly real estate professionals! Thanks, Fruzsina and Rabih!
Daniel Wertz
I could not recommend Tom highly enough. He is extremely knowledgeable about the DC metro area housing market; provided useful advice and insights while touring properties together; and was very helpful in walking us through each step of the home-buying process. Tom clearly puts his clients' interests first.
Janice Hampton
We had the pleasure of recently working with Lorielle Akintunde for the purchase of our forever home. Lorielle is extremely knowledgeable, prompt, and responsive. When it appeared we were not going to be able to settle on the expected day due to the seller, Lorielle went to bat for us and we were able to settle as expected. The home buying process can be stressful, but Lorielle kept us informed every step of the way and made our home buying experience one for the books! During the process we expressed our desire to purchase a piano. Shortly after settlement, Lorielle remembered that conversation and was instrumental in our acquisition of the piano - talk about going above and beyond the call of duty! Without her, we would not be in our forever home and for that we are forever grateful!
Ayan Sheikh
Lorielle Akintunde has made my experience as a first time homebuyer, during a pandemic no less, was so smooth and painless. She knows the D.C. market, neighborhoods, and school zones so well and offered crucial insight I needed as I navigated through the long process. I knew I was in capable hands by the way she looked out for me-- and it was as though she was buying a home for herself. I loved that. Lorielle made herself available to me around the clock--answered all my questions, checked in with me everyday, saved me so much money, and helped me get the best deal on my new home.
I appreciate you so much, Lorielle. It was a pleasure having you as my agent. Thank you for your help.
Naomi Gallagher
Liza was amazing and extremely helpful during the entire sale process of our house in DC. My husband got a job offer in another state and we decided to accept the job and move our family across the country. We gave ourselves about 6 weeks to pack up, get the house ready for the sale and move which was quite stressful but we knew we could rely on Liza for anything we needed help with during this time. We ended up moving the weekend before our house went on the market. Liza had an open house that first weekend and our house sold the following Monday for our full asking price. Since we were out of state Liza kept us up to date on the entire sale process from offer, to inspection, to walk through(s), the house appraisal, and handed over our keys for us during the closing for us. She also kindly kept the real estate agent of the new home we were purchasing up to date on the sale of our DC house since it was a contingency for us. Being out of state and selling your house was nerve racking but Liza kept us up to date throughout the entire process. You really don’t realize you have a great agent until you have a terrible one and Liza was fabulous, she even listened to me moan (numerous time) about how terrible our agents in Arizona were.
Elaine Vanpoole
No coincidence that I met Mr. Rabih Chamas through his supervisor while browsing the Petworth neighborhood for open houses. After being introduced to Mr. Chamas as a realtor with GreenLine Real Estate, the sale of my Mother's home was like it was already written in the realtors' history book.
The process was deliberate and the sale was short; Mr. Chamas handled everything needed to get Mom's home sold in just two weeks. We were pleased with his competency, knowledge, and skill as a realtor who did not just care about his commission, but demonstrated his patience and concern for us during the entire process. My Mom and I both believe
he was an answer to our prayers.
Camile Nassif
Mr. Chamas was a pleasure to work with and made the process very smooth from day one. As a busy professional, I did not have a lot of time to spend with Rabih but he was understanding and accommodating at every step. Our house sold after 3 days on the market, great job and thank you for all your efforts. If you are looking for a DC Real Estate Professional that is knowledgeable of the local market, Rabih is an excellent choice.
Arvin Ganesan
Tom Spier and the team at Greenline were -- by far - the best realtors I've ever used. Not only did Tom go the extra mile on every piece of paperwork, every detail on an inspection and every silly question we asked, but he also gave us frank advice that flew in the face of a quick sale and a quick buck. Tom is a stellar realtor, but more importantly a fantastic person. The latter is crucial for anyone who is committing to spend hours, weeks and months with someone in pursuit of a new home!
Christine Olson
Fruzsina helped me to buy my first home (which I love) and I can't recommend her highly enough. Fruzsina is extremely knowledgeable about the DC market and the purchase process. She is very hardworking. She was always immediately responsive and available, which is critically important in the fast-moving and competitive DC area. She would pick me up, drive me around, and show me places even when I asked her to do so at the last minute. She never tried to pressure me in any way. In addition to being highly competent, she is a kind and pleasant person to work with.
Sharon Hix
Kharye went out of his way to help us find a home...ultimately in Old Town Alexandria VA. He was very attentive and responsive to our needs anytime night or day! Because we were living out of the area, he willingly handled many things for us that the average relator would not normally do. He did extensive research on our behalf on topics such as zoning and parking; he even went on the roof with the inspector in the rain! Kharye worked well with the seller's agents and was able to negotiate everything we asked for!
Kharye Dunlap will go out of his way to ensure that you are satisfied.
Vincent James Jr
My wife and I had the pleasure of meeting Kharye Dunlap at an open house. We had thoughts of selling, but hadn’t come to a concrete decision, yet. In the meantime of our decision to sell, Kharye kept us abreast to what was happening in the market. When we decided to sell our home and work with Kharye, we were more than happy with our communication, his marketing skills, as well as his network. He never ceased to amaze us. He was able to sell our home within a month of listing. But, that’s not all. He even helped us purchase our next home within three months. Overall, I love the fact that he gets us. He’s now a dear friend to us.
Gwen Kirby
Dee Getachew really knows the neighborhoods in DC and knows a lot about the changes and trends that affect the properties in those neighborhoods. Because she lives in DC she knows her way around the city and able to get to District properties quickly, which is very important in this fast market. I was a nervous first-time buyer, but Dee clearly explained the process when we first met, and then walked me through the steps, all the way to the end!
Leah Belsky
Fruzsina is an amazing agent. We worked with Fruz when we first moved to DC, and I was pregnant with my first child. We were unsure whether we wanted to buy and needed to find someone who would help us quickly assess the best path forward. Fruzsina very rapidly understood what we thought we were looking for and then showed up 7 or 8 different properties in a weekend - all of which were slightly different and things I wouldn't have picked out online - in order to hone in on what we really wanted. The process was enormously helpful. She then masterfully led us through the entire bidding in and negotiation process in a multi-bid situation and has been a resource ever since when we have question about the property or DC real estate. She's also connected to a network of contractors if you want to make any modifications on what you buy. We absolutely love our home, and it's turned out to be a fantastic investment!!! Fruz is truly a client oriented, energetic, fun, and trustworthy agent and friend. She's also super smart and creative. I couldn't recommend anyone more.
Nicholas Fechter
A colleague recommended GreenLine when my wife and I were initially thinking of listing our first home. I reached out to GreenLine and was connected with Kharye based on where my wife and I were looking. After almost a year of looking--during which time Kharye never hesitated to make himself available--we finally found the home we now own. The path to our new home wasn't as linear as we were hoping, but through it all Kharye was able to find a way forward that worked for all involved thanks to his professionalism, diplomacy and dogged determination. My wife and I couldn't be happier with the way everything came together, and we owe it entirely to Kharye and the professionals at GreenLine. Thanks again, Kharye!
Rabih Helou
Phil went above and beyond the call of duty to help me get through the sale of my rental property while i was out of town. He dealt with a few serious hiccups with calm and professionalism, and was an exceptionally clear, open and transparent communicator.
Phil's contribution to this transaction provided clear measurable value. I would call him again to do business, have a beer, or maybe even vote him into office.
Piet Gauchat
We had a great experience with GreenLine. They were efficient, provided great recommendations that helped expedite the closing process, and really went the extra mile. When we were unable to go look at a particular unit that we were interested in, Phil went out to the residence and created a detailed video for us.
Greenline has a great team, lots of experience, and local knowledge. I would highly endorse them.
Anne Leopold
Sebastian helped us find out dream home. Throughout the entire process he was extremely patient answering all our questions and making sure we understood all details. We truly felt that Sebastian had our best interest mind, and that we could rely on him to make sure everything was taken care of. Sebastian was always responsive and available to help us when needed. We always knew he was just a quick phone call, text, or email away, regardless the time of the day (weekend, or holiday). Some of the things that also stood out for us was Sebastian's attention to detail and his eagerness to learn more from the various contractors (e.g., radon) to help inform future clients. We highly recommend Sebastian!
Dinesh Jayawardhana
We were so lucky to have found Bobby Taylor as our realtor.He help us find the right house for the right price.He is knowledge honest and smart work ethic,are respected and appreciated.He always answered every call or email no matter what time of the day.
I would highly recommend him to any one that is searching for a new home. Thank you so much Bobby for everything done for us.
tessema getachew
I was in the market for an investment property in the red hot market of Anacostia. Dee.G, was very effective in finding properties that met my investment profile. She was super fast, and responsive, which is a 'must' in a tight market like DC. Once my offers went in she provided updates to me on a daily basis and returned my calls immediately.
Gregory Marimon
Liza is simply fantastic and was able to sell my property quickly for over asking price! She's responsive, diligent, and works hard for her clients. I can honestly say I had a fantastic expericiene with Liza and Geen Line. She took care of everything so I didn't have to worry at all. I could not reccomend a better realtor than Liza.
Sarah Minukas
We worked with Agent Kharye Dunlap on both the sale of our condo in Alexandria, and on our dream home in NW DC. He was excellent, knowledgeable and took great care every step of the way.
Kate Kuo
Fruzsina di Ruggiero is the best! Would highly recommend to anyone. Fruzsina sold my DC condo. She walked me through each step of the way with patience, professionalism, timeliness, strategic decision-making, expertise, complete integrity, great listening skills and good cheer, and we ended up getting exactly what we wanted. Oh, she is also just a straight-up lovely individual. Whether you are a newbie or veteran in this crazy real estate market, buying or selling, Fruzsina will be the right agent for you!
Mathew Crichton
Great webinar session for first time home buyers! I was really impressed with their 2 hour presentation, and they covered all of the major steps involved and helped explain a very complicated process well. I'm looking forward to learning more in the coming months and hopefully will be buying a house within the next year or two.
Frenchy French
Jeremiah was great! He was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. He's a DC native and told me about all the surrounding areas. Would refer anyone to him.
Chris Thompson
Thank’s Rabih for the smooth commercial property transaction. I actually enjoyed the research, discussions and process. Great work and appreciate your due diligence along the way. Solid professional and look forward to future commercial opportunities.
Lawrence Durden
Lucheia, really went in a took charge of helping us find our home as we relocated to Washington, D.C. Once she helped us to see what we were looking for sure she showed us houses relentlessly until She found us our home. I would suggest her for anyone moving into the DMV.
K B
The first time home buyer workshop was really well rounded. Lots of information. I appreciated the opportunity to ask questions and also hear the questions of others.
Khlil Mejdoub
Best experience ever! Rabih was professional, knowledgeable and helped me get the house of my dreams despite the strong competition in the market.
Highly recommend!!!
Philip Di Ruggiero
Best group of locally focused real estate agents in the DMV. Love the monthly first time home buyer workshops too!
Justin Fung
Kharye helped us find and purchase our home. He was accessible, helpful, informed, and always looked out for us. We highly recommend him!

Jeremiah is outstanding. His knowledge of the District reassured me of where I wanted to look and helped me determine what I want to look for in a home.

Rabih was fantastic - he listened to me, made recommendations based off of what I said and helped me think through things that I wouldn't have thought about on my own. Highly recommend!
