If you are in the process of finding your next real estate agent, I recommend you stop all searches now. Simon is your guy no matter your needs! While Simon was a referral from a good family friend, we still went through a rigorous interview process with 8 top real estate agents in the DC area before we decided to move forward with him. Our situation was a bit more complex than your standard real estate transaction. We needed an agent that could process 3 real estate transactions (1 buy and 2 sell) in a very short period and could deal with a family of 4 with different personalities and needs that were equal decision makers in the process. We picked...

Are you spread thin? Exhausted? Do you need a hero? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, Simon is the man for you. We shopped around for an agent. While they all have something to offer, I needed a unicorn: someone who was as smart or smarter than me, as hardworking or more hardworking than me, and would treat me like a partner and not a chore. I didn't think I was asking for much, but it turns out this combination of qualities is rare. And Simon has them all in spades. On top of all that, it turns out Simon is an absolute pleasure to work and hang out with. Simon bent over backwards in more ways than one to help get our home into t...
— Sold a Single Family home in 2021 in Hyattsville, MD.
I just wanted to take a moment to let folks know how impressed I was by how Simon handled the sale of my daughter and son-in-law's house in Hyattsville. They had their hands full and were overwhelmed with getting a house ready to sell while preparing to move to Baltimore, which included simultaneously searching for temporary and permanent housing, my daughter wrapping up one job, starting a new one, and my son-in-law working full time while also looking for a new job in Baltimore. They had too much to manage and getting their house ready to sell felt like the breaking point for them. My husband and I have bought and sold quite a few homes over the l...
— Sold a Single Family home in 2021 in Hyattsville, MD.
For my first home purchase, I did an initial consult/call to see what Simon could provide for us. His knowledge of the DC housing market was very obvious and he asked many questions I never thought of to help us zero in on a possible new home! One thing I didn't realize he would be so helpful on was his negotiation skills. He broke down every detail in the negotiation and made sure we were 100% comfortable with whatever decision we made. I never felt pressured or rushed for anything. After making the initial offer, he worked well with my mortgage lender and was very communicative and transparent. I felt like I didn't have to lift a finger! Thanks Si...

Where to begin is the hardest part, but put simply — Simon is amazing. My wife and I are first time home buyers and had so many unknowns on where to start, who to reach out to, and always wondering what comes next. Since being recommended to talk with Simon, we can absolutely say we will never work with anyone else and their team ever again. From day one, Simon was approachable, upfront about the steps, and honest about our options, quality of the homes we toured, and steadfast in supporting our goals. Throughout our time with Simon we can genuinely say we have made a new friend (and now neighbor!) where we look forward to the next time we can catch...

Simon and the Karta team are wonderful! Endless attention to detail and so easy to work with, making even selling into a tough market smooth and effective. They handled all the complex details, staged our apartment beautifully and handled the intricacies of a demanding buyer. Can't recommend them highly enough and look forward to working with the Karta team on our next real estate move.
