"My sincere gratification for the professional service we have received.... The complete trust that I feel my wife and I can place in Jamie has made a difference. He is a professional dedicated to providing the best service possible and (possesses) a personality which invites trust and comforts all involved." - Joe Don Castleberry

"As a real estate service provider myself, I know that it can be difficult to find a professional who delivers the right "mix" of market knowledge, personality, attentiveness to detail and follow-up. You have it¡¦most do not. In a world where customer service is everything, you excelled on all counts. You have become our real estate "partner" in the truest sense of the word. Thank you." - Gary S. Schlager

"Throughout the entire process, Laura was punctual, patient, detail-oriented, knowledgeable and pleasant. Laura clearly explained every step of the home buying process, methodically reviewed and explained the sales contract, and provided answers to all of my questions at every turn. I always felt very comfortable that Laura presented information in a straightforward manner and that her efforts were focused on placing me in a home I would love and one in which I would be financially comfortable. Laura also provided contractor referrals for each household project. This was a tremendous help because it eliminated the need for me to search for respectable contractors on my own. Because of her excellent work ethic, I had the utmost confidence that the contractors she referred would perform similarly. When their work was completed, everything was how I wanted it and at a reasonable price. I could not have had a more pleasant experience buying my first home, and I would most highly recommend Laura to anyone and will definitely call upon her for future real estate ventures." - H. Copeland (Silver Spring, MD)

"Honest, trustworthy, dedicated...these are words I would use to describe my experience working with Laura. As a first-time home-buyer I was very nervous, but Laura thoroughly and openly explained everything to me. From start to finish, I trusted Laura and never worried that my interests were misrepresented. I think that her humble, trustworthy nature is commendable, and it definitely made the home-buying process much less stressful. The countless properties we visited and the number of hours Laura dedicated to helping me find the perfect home are strong testimonies to her dedication. She listened to my needs and was always very responsive. She made me feel as though I was her number one priority and her honesty helped me to confidently make my decision and purchase the property I own today. Laura loves her job, and it is obvious in the quality of her work. I highly recommend Laura to help you with your housing needs!" - S. Blake (Germantown, Maryland)

"Laura did an excellent job to help us sell our condo and my family feels lucky and grateful to have her as our agent. Because of Laura's hard work, our condo was sold in such a short time under a depressed real estate market. We were very impressed with her kindness, diligence, thoroughness, and leave-no-stone-unturned style. Laura's professional conduct sets an example of what a great real estate agent should be." - S. Shen (Clarksburg, Maryland)

"All told, Laura is very knowledgeable about the real estate business in Maryland. She is extremely professional, friendly and executes her work with precision. Never could we imagine how approachable, patient and thorough a real estate agent could be until we worked with Laura. She is also a people person – a critical quality to possess in this business. Laura helped us purchase our first home in April 2009 and walked us through every step of the way. We are fortunate to have worked with her and will continue doing so in the future, as need be. As such, we enthusiastically endorse her for any real estate services." - C. and J. Burns (Rockville, Maryland)

"From our initial home search through settlement, Laura always made herself available. If you are a first-time home buyer like we were, you will find the process much simpler than you probably feared. Laura is always there to explain the formidable contracts and procedures step by step. If she doesn't know the answer she will let you know, and you can be certain she'll contact her colleagues to find the answer as soon as possible. As Laura can attest, our case was not without some unprecedented credit hurdles that she was able to navigate us through. She was always there watching our backs, making sure that others did not take advantage of our naivety of the process. If that happens, you can be certain Laura will be on the phone resolving the situation with your best interests in mind. Most importantly, Laura understands that she is working for you - it is your money, your home, and you ultimately call the shots. She is always there to give her experienced recommendation, but doesn't cross the line. Overall, we had an excellent experience with Laura, and would not hesitate to use her representation in the future or recommend her to others seeking a new home." - R. Much and E. Bauer (Clarksburg, Maryland)

"We would highly recommend Laura Bannister as a real estate agent. She is fabulous! She goes way above and beyond. She was so helpful and reassuring every step of the way. She took care of all the little details and handled any issues that came up quickly and efficiently. We would definitely work with her again!!!" - G. and M. Miller (Poolesville, MD)

"Leigh's savvy and persistence were essential to consummating the deal. Without forgetting the need for tact and discretion, she found creative solutions to differences and skillfully managed to promote agreement in a positive, productive way." - Robert Hanley

I enjoyed working with such a professional team. You and Kip made the transaction very smooth and pleasant at all times. - Lillian Maitheson

"What a class act you are. You made a stressful situation pleasant¡¦and we got cookies to boot!" - Valera & Tony

"Working with you has truly been an enjoyable experience. You are kind, patient, and the ultimate gentleman." - Debbie

"Jan Brito has been a fantastic realtor as I went through the process of buying my first home. She took the time to sit down with me and explain the process and really listened to what I was looking for. She showed me a variety of places in Montgomery County . . . . and maintained excellent contact with me during my search and subsequent purchase. I would highly recommend Jan Brito for any new or experienced home buyer." - Chris Ricchiuti

"My husband and I had very specific ideas about the kind of home we wanted. We wanted a small, older home, with plenty of land, that needed a lot of work. We wanted to be out in the country but with easy access to major highways. We also needed it to fall within a very tight price range. We did not think that it would be possible to find such a home or, if it were possible, we believed it would take months and months of looking to find it. Jan listened carefully to what we wanted (a gift of hers) and we found it on our first trip out to look. It was the second house we saw and we knew it as soon as we saw it. Trust Jan; you are in good hands." - Mr. & Mrs. Anthony Owens

"We talked so much before on a daily basis that I miss getting your emails. Thanks for checking on us, and again thanks for all your help. You're an excellent realtor, couldn't have had a better person. We will always recommend you to everyone, you're magnificent." - Leonor Simmons

"In walks Jan Brito...Having skepticism on home purchasing, condo construction, whether to buy a single family, the location, can I afford anything...what I now know are the normal first time home buyer worries...Jan stepped me through the entire buying process with professionalism and her incredible technical expertise from our first initial consultation to when we left each other after closing.

Jan stood strong for me where I believe , if alone, I would have walked away. She took care of EVERY detail, communication, and made sure that every "I" was dotted and "T" was crossed. SHE MADE THIS HAPPEN FOR ME!!

This passed Friday night I stood on my roof top deck for the first time and watched a fireworks show over the Nationals ballpark. I had many different thoughts right at that moment but rest assured that thanking Jan Brito was one of them. I hope that you truly understand what an asset she is to your organization." - John Cregar
