Testimonial from satisfied client who relocated to Maryland



When relocating recently from out of state, we engaged Adam as a buyer's agent to assist us with purchase of a new home in Maryland. Adam proved to be highly attentive, diligent, patient and very attuned to our needs...when, after viewing a handful of houses, he said "I know the perfect house for you", he was exactly right! You can be assured that Adam will always be looking out for your interests - he definitely did for us! July 29, 2011

Top qualities: Great Results , Personable

Steven Orlansky, AIA, LEED AP hired Adam in 2011.
------------
It was a pleasure helping the Orlanskys find a home that met their needs. If I remember correctly,it was an April afternoon and we were finishing previewing a home and I asked if he had 10 more minutes to look at one more home which just became available on the market and I thought would be a great fit for them. He said sure. A short while later at the home,he was describing it to his wife and the rest is history, as they say.

The Orlanskys reached out to me roughly a year before the move to meet,discuss the area, the market and make sure the area was right for them.

They actually were able to "try before you buy" if you will,by renting a home in the neighborhood for a month. I commend their diligence and efforts,especially being a family moving from out of state,to make sure they could understand and experience the community where they would ultimately buy in.

If you are considering making a move,whether it is for a job,family or other, and the move would not entail you moving to a different state or country do all you can to get a lay for the land.

If you know somebody or a family considering moving to Metro DC,have them call me to talk, even at the "exploratory stage",when they want to learn about neighborhoods before beginning the home search. I am here to help.

Life is good!

Did you know that your home could be located in more than 1 county?


I met a potential home seller yesterday whose home is physically located in 2 counties! Very unusual. The person bought the home in the 1990's. Back then I don't believe when homes were on the market for sale that they had to disclose estimated property taxes otherwise potential buyers would have known that the seller was paying property taxes for both counties as part of the home was located in "County A" and part of the home was located in "County B".

It is unfortunate that this information didn't come up during the contract period (if seller didn't mention it). The first time the buyer found out about this issue was when she received tax bills from 2 different counties.

She owns a nice home and it is in a great area,however she would have used this information to determine the cost of owning this home upfront before finalizing her decision to buy. Would she have still bought the home? Very possibly. People just don't like expensive surprises and it has obviously left a bad taste in her mouth.

Fortunately we are in a research and information era,where people desire to and have access to most information they want/need in a decision making process. On your next home purchase,research every thing you can about the potential home and property...ask any questions and raise any concerns to the settlement company,so they can specifically explore,answer your concerns.

Whether you know somebody who is thinking about buying a home,selling a home or has real estate questions (even if they aren't in the market),have them call me. I am here to help.

Life is good!

Testimonial from client in recent Potomac real estate transaction


“Adam helped us find our first home. We had been looking off and on for over 4 years. Adam was very patient with us and always made time to show us available houses. After finally having an offer accepted, Adam guided us expertly through the home-buying process; from home-inspection to settlement. I would absolutely recommend Adam to anyone that is looking to buy a house in the near future. Thanks Adam.” July 12, 2011

Testimonial from one of my clients' Lenders


“I recently had the opportunity of working with Adam Bashein on a very involved short sale transaction. Adam remained patient, thorough and efficient throughout the six month long process. Adam was always on top of his game and always had the best interest of his client in mind. The twists and turns throughout the transaction did not faze Adam at all. If you're looking for integrity and non-pushy sales tactics Adam is your man!” July 6, 2011
