‟“Finding a realtor is, like finding a property, a combination of shoe leather and luck, particularly if you don’t live in the city you are moving to. I began with a realtor who was clearly on a different wavelength (she still sends me 30 listings a day). A local friend recommended the City Block team. I reached out to them and heard back from Marti … n, which was very lucky for me. Martin seems extremely laid back but that should not be mistaken for a lack of savvy or carelessness. I made a couple of trips to Philadelphia to look at properties. Martin was always available, and prompt and returned texts and e-mails immediately and never pressured me. He helped me through the inspection process and saved me thousands of dollars as well. Martin’s recommendations for settlement attorney and mortgage loan officer were both excellent. There was a thorny issue with the parking spot I was purchasing that was resolved by the settlement company at the last moment. Martin always had an option or solution to suggest. While buying a property is never fun, Martin certainly made my new home purchase smooth and enjoyable.” Read More ▾

‟Melani was a joy to work with. I talked to Melani, listed the property, and had a full price offer within a few weeks. She understood nuances of the local market better than any realtor I spoke with, and recommended a higher listing price (which I got) than others based on her comparisons. She was responsive and respectful throughout, and supported … me through my anxiety about the sale. I'd definitely recommend Melani to others looking to sell their homes” Read More ▾

‟We used Jeff both to buy and sell a house in Northern Liberties and highly recommend him! In helping us buy, he understood well what we were looking for and always got us quickly in to see the listings we wanted to see. He helped us assess each property and was a trusted, critical eye in pointing out the strengths and challenges in each. We especia … lly appreciated that he was not pushing us into anything, but instead was a helpful partner. He was extremely knowledgeable about the neighborhoods where we were looking, down to each street and block. He was also knowledgeable about specific builders and projects. With his guidance we bought a perfect house for us – within our budget, exceeding our needs, on a great block in a great neighborhood. When it was time to sell he was just as good. He helped us present our house in its best possible light. He advised us on what repairs and refreshing we should do to show the house well and made the process painless by helping us find people to do the work we needed. Everyone on his team is professional and easy to work with. Our house sold quickly, with multiple offers at and above ask and above comps in the area. We couldn’t have been happier with the process and the result” Read More ▾
