Strong Foundations Group

Fantastic experience: Eric was an absolute pleasure to work with as a first time home buyer. He was knowledgable, communicative, and made himself available at odd hours or on his vacations during our housing search. His overview of the purchase process at the beginning of our search relieved a lot of stress when we moved quickly once we found a great house. Eric helped us negotiate an off-market deal and I would recommend him to anyone.

Fantastic experience: We were referred by friends and had a great experience working with Eric. He is impressively organized and process-oriented, and has excellent strategic instincts. He was super kind, patient, and just generally very nice to work with during our long and somewhat unconventional home-buying process. He also connected us with excellent people in his network for other parts of the process. Highly recommended, and we'd happily work with him again in the future.

Fantastic experience: Eric was a tremendous help in our home search. He was there for us every step of the way through months of searching, generally spending most of every Saturday with us for six months touring place after place until we found exactly what we were hoping to find. His knowledge of the greater DC market and the home buying process were invaluable, and he took the time to explain all aspects of the process to help us feel confident that we were making informed decisions. Eric is detail and process-oriented, and is always on top of everything. We have sent many of our friends and coworkers his way when they ask who we worked with, because we’re confident he will be just as good of an agent for them as he was for us.

Fantastic experience: We were so incredibly thankful to have found Eric, referred to us by a work colleague. It was our first time buying and even looking for a house, so we really didn’t know what we were doing or what to expect. Eric was dedicated from day one and really took the time to not only break the process down for us step by step, but also made himself available whenever we wanted to go see houses, whether it was 30 minutes away or 2 hours away, one house or five houses. On top of all of that, he was very honest about what he saw and thought of certain conditions. He is definitely someone you can trust to help you find the right house. We love our new home and we aren’t looking to move again for a while, but when that day comes we will for sure be calling Eric!!

Fantastic experience: Eric is a great communicator and is dedicated getting your sale across the finish line. He does an excellent job explaining what to expect—both in terms of listing price and process. I would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have now bought and sold my home with Eric as my realtor and had an excellent experience each time. He was professional, knowledgeable, and communicated clearly and promptly throughout the entire process. He kept me informed at every stage and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I found myself, somewhat unexpectedly and urgently, needing to sell my house when my daughter moved to her own home. Once again, Eric was there to expertly help me every at every step of the journey. From finding awesome team to make the minor touch ups to the perfect stager who made my house look like it came out of a magazine. Eric took care of every detail and was so patient as he has been with every real estate transaction we have had together (now up to 3). I would highly recommend Eric to anyone in need of a realtor. He is amazingly helpful, professional and knowledgeable about the real estate market and how to get the best deal for his client in the most expeditious manner.

Fantastic experience: Working with Eric Fafoglia was one of the best decisions we made buying our first home. As first-time buyers, we had plenty of questions, and he struck the perfect balance, patient when we needed guidance and direct when it mattered. What really stood out was his judgment. He didn’t just show us homes, he helped us think through lender constraints, resale value, inspections, and even appraisal challenges. At multiple points, he steered us away from terms that weren’t right for us, which built a lot of trust. When things got complicated, he was steady, strategic, and highly responsive. We always felt like we were making smart, informed decisions. We ended up in a home we love, and Eric gave us a strong foundation to get there. I’d recommend him without hesitation.

Fantastic experience: Eric was absolutely amazing to work with as we bought our first home! He truly went above and beyond to accommodate our schedules and was always available to answer any questions we had, no matter how big or small. What really stood out was how he took the time to sit down with us and clearly explain the entire home buying process in a way that made it easy to understand. As first-time buyers, that meant so much and made the experience feel far less overwhelming. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and would highly recommend Eric to anyone looking to buy a home!

Fantastic experience: Eric is the definition of a professional who executes at a high level. Thoughtful in his approach, strategic in every move, and relentless when it comes to delivering results. He knows his market inside and out and never loses sight of what matters most, his client. If you’re working with Eric, you’re in the right hands. Period.

Fantastic experience: Eric has been an above and beyond real estate agent for our family. He’s well informed and patient, which was extremely helpful for us as first time home buyers. I can not recommend Eric highly enough. If you’re looking for your dream home in the DMV, you’re going to want Eric on your team!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Eric, especially as a first-time homebuyer! He was very detail oriented and helpful. He took the time to explain every part of the process and has been a wonderful resource! We hope to work with him again in the future someday.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I were navigating the overwhelming process of buying our first home, unsure of where to start or what to expect. From the very beginning, Eric was there for us in the most supportive, thoughtful, and professional way possible. He walked us through every step with clarity and patience, never making us feel rushed or overwhelmed. One of the things that really stood out was how resourceful he was. Whether it was a contractor, inspector, lender, or anything in between, Eric had a deep network of trusted references ready to help. Every question we had (and we had many!), he answered in detail, always taking the time to explain not just the “what,” but the “why” behind each part of the process. It made us feel informed, confident, and in control. On the day of signing, when the nerves were understandably high, Eric surprised us with a beautiful houseplant/tree, a thoughtful touch that brought warmth and steadiness to a moment that felt so big. It’s now proudly living in our new home as a daily reminder of the care he put into our journey. We chose Eric after seeing the incredible job he did helping my mom through her own home purchase, and we are so glad we did. His professionalism, kindness, and genuine passion for helping people find the right home shines through in everything he does. I recommend Eric without hesitation to anyone going through the stressful (but ultimately rewarding!) process of buying a home. He’s more than just a realtor, he’s a true partner in the journey.

Fantastic experience: We moved from Chicago, where we had the worst real estate agent experience that turned us away from buying there. Working with Eric has felt such a breeze in our journey to become first time home buyers ! The professionalism of him and his team, the proactiveness in all fronts and the top notch industry advices made up for the best agent experience you can think of. Recommended eyes closed

Fantastic experience: Eric and his team are an amazing group to work with. The sale of our home occurred this summer. Eric’s knowledge and recommendations allowed for a multiple offer scenario and a sales price well above asking. I’d recommend Eric to anyone! Buying or selling!

Fantastic experience: Working with Eric and Jack was a fantastic experience! From the start, their sincerity and deep knowledge of the local market, real estate process, and lending were clear. What really stood out was how genuine they were—no pushy sales tactics, just honest, straightforward advice and realistic expectations. We never felt like they were in it for themselves; it was obvious they truly cared about doing what was best for us. They made the whole process smooth and stress-free. On top of that, we’ve built a great friendship with them. Honestly, we kind of miss having an active deal because working with them was such a pleasure! They’ll absolutely be our first call for any real estate needs in the future. If you’re looking for a team you can trust completely, Eric and Jack are it. John H.

Fantastic experience: Ellie was super helpful, knowledgeable and responsive. We were able to get our house under contract within about a week (she was always happy to show it last minute and came early to make sure everything looked good), and she was very proactive before and after the closing to make sure everything went smoothly. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Justin, Jack, Eric, and their team are all incredibly competent real estate professionals, and we can’t imagine having used anyone else for our home search. They leverage a structured home search and purchase process that makes a stressful task feel comfortable and manageable. Their responsiveness and availability allowed us to find the perfect home only 9 days after we started our search, and their offer strategy and guidance was crucial in getting the home at the right price. Their approach made it clear that they are focused on ensuring their customers are cared for, and equipped with the information they need to begin their home ownership journey. If you ever need anything related to your home—even after closing—they are there for you. 10/10 would use them to buy another house, but we won’t need to because they helped us get the perfect one already.

Fantastic experience: Eric, Jack and Justin were absolutely amazing. I've had a 5+ year relationship with the team, when they originally were part of a different organization. It's rare to find such trusted partners. I found my home outside DC - an absolute gem, and we negotiated aggressively and closed quickly. Five years later, I sold my home for nearly a 200% profit. We were only on the market for 4 days, ending up with 4 competitive offers - and a very smooth, polished process. I can't speak highly enough of the team.

Fantastic experience: Our best decision of 2024 was hiring Shorb Fafoglia as our buy-side and sell-side agents! We were selling a 3BR condo in DC with plans to move to Northern VA and were referred to Jack, Eric, and Justin by friends who had also worked with them. We were impressed from the beginning by the team's detail orientation, experience and expertise, and customer service focus. The SFG team exceeded our (already high) expectations in every way throughout the buying and selling process. On the buy side, they set up dozens of tours for us -- we were very picky, with a long list of "must haves" and "nice to haves" -- and accompanied us on the tours, helping us learn more about what we liked and things to watch out for. We were even open to renting if we didn't find the right place to buy, and they set up rental tours, too. The final property we chose met all our "must have" AND all our "nice to have" criteria. When we were ready to offer, Jack was a brilliant negotiator, saving us money and helping us get a seller credit that we could use for a rate buy-down and closing costs. On the sell side, we (unintentionally) really made the SFG team work for their commission! We ended up in a very, very tricky negotiation, and it's certain that we would not have closed the sale without Eric and Jack's expertise, calm demeanor, and negotiating skills. The final sale was a huge win for us, saving us both time and money. Throughout the process, Jack, Eric, Justin and everyone on the SFG team went above and beyond, recommending great vendors for us, meeting vendors at our property (e.g. painters, stagers), and holding our hands every step of the way. It really felt like concierge-level service. But the best part of working with Jack, Eric, and Justin is that they are all awesome people (and with a great sense of humor). We trust them completely, and we recommend them enthusiastically and without reservation.

Fantastic experience: Eric and Justin and the team at Shorb Fafoglia provided concierge-level service in the buying and selling of our home. They guided us through every step of the process. If they couldn't handle something themselves (arranging for inspections; providing reasonable recommendations for home improvements that increased the sale potential of the house; arranging for contractors; producing and distributing quality marketing materials; meeting contractors; letting potential buyers in; etc.), which they usually did, they provided vetted references for services we needed to arrange ourselves (movers, for example). We have bought and sold several houses in Maryland, Florida, and Virginia and this was the most painless, seamless process we have been through. Our latest sale involved inspections from two HOAs - our neighborhood cluster and Reston Association - Eric's team handled it! It was like staying at a 4-start hotel knowing that whatever you needed, it would be taken care of. Our payoff was a selling price well above asking and a sale before the house even was on the market. We highly recommend Eric, Justin, and team!

Fantastic experience: From start to finish the entire team was first in class. As a repeat client, I highly recommend partnering with Eric, Justin, or Jack for any real estate transaction (buying or selling) in the DMV area. We looked at multiple properties spread across the greater DC area and they consistently provided deep knowledge of the various neighborhoods. They are punctual, polite and deliver without excuses.

Fantastic experience: Eric and Jack completely knocked my socks off, and I am deeply grateful for their work. Eric was consistently warm, responsive, clear, kind, organized and sensitive to my budget, preferences and timeline. He gave insightful and productive advice, all of which I followed, and which paid off beyond my wildest dreams. Their understanding of the market, of houses internally, their knowledge of the best ways to prepare a house to meet both the buyer and seller's needs, is exceptional. The customer service given in terms of engagement with the property itself, and completing tasks, was truly above and beyond. I wish them all the best in their work and personal lives: they are terrific, down to earth people, and a very rare find in customer interface these days.

Fantastic experience: One of the biggest worries when my aging parents were dying was how on earth would I handle dispersing all the “stuff” in their house that had accumulated over 65 yrs and get their large but very old house sold. I knew Ellie from my neighborhood and I trusted her judgment to get me through this process. Her assistance went way beyond just listing the house for sale … she brought in people who could help us parse through what furnishings were valuable and worth selling and which should go to charity. And for those items worth selling, she had a stable full of folks who were willing to buy. As part of this process, she recommended movers who could “do it all” and get the stuff where it needed to go. She had house cleaners ready to come in and clean-up after the house was fully vacant. And she had a buyer for the property within a week of the “for sale” sign going up! Ellie is THE BEST! I can’t recommend her highly enough (and my sister is now using Ellie to sell her house later this year!).

Fantastic experience: As first time sellers, we had such a positive experience working with Jack and Eric to sell our home in DC. Jack and Eric could not have been more helpful -- they were highly responsive to all of our questions about the local market, showed a keen attention to detail in making our house shine, and deftly managed all of the logistics around the sale. Thanks to their hard work, we quickly accepted a great offer on our home and are so happy with the outcome. And on a personal level, they are such a pleasure to work with. Thank you, Eric and Jack!

Fantastic experience: "We are an older couple who had not been in the home buying market for over 20 years. Jack Shorb was just terrific for us. He was exceptionally patient as we bumbled along looking at many places.. When we finally figured out what we wanted, his terrific sense of humor and easy going manner were incredibly relaxing as we went through the challenging price negotiation process. He made sure that we were well protected through it all. Altogether Jack was the perfect realtor for us."

Fantastic experience: Loved working with Justin Kelly, I was referred to him by a friend. It was my first time buying a home, Justin was very kind a helpful throughout the whole process.

Negative experience: Couldn’t speak worse about the work Shorb & Fafoglia do if I spent eons trying. This isn’t the real estate team you want to work with. Terrible ethics, drama, and lousy service make Shorb & Fafoglia Compass’ most pathetic team. I personally had awful experience in communication and relation to this team.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend working with this group! Jack and team were wonderful at guiding me through purchasing my first home and were very patient at walking me through each step of the process from looking at places to closing.

Fantastic experience: Can’t say enough good things about Jack and Eric. As first-time home buyers, my husband and I were completely lost and required a lot of hand-holding during the process. Jack and Eric patiently answered all of our questions, went with us to tour houses, and connected us with reliable lenders, contractors, etc. We had an excellent experience and highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: Working with Jack from the Shorb Fafoglia team on my first real estate purchase was an outstanding experience. His profound knowledge of the entire purchasing process was incredibly beneficial. I was particularly impressed by the innovative ideas and strategies he introduced, especially in negotiation, which added significant value to my experience. Furthermore, I had the pleasure of meeting his colleague Eric, who was equally delightful. I strongly recommend this team for anyone looking to fulfill their residential real estate needs!

Fantastic experience: Jack’s expertise and experience helped us through a very complicated home buying transaction. There were a few curveballs along the way and Jack was patient and professional and guided us well every step of the way. I recommend Jack to anyone moving to the area. I love our new house and I appreciate everything Jack did to help us get it.

Fantastic experience: Definitely a great help to first-time homebuyers!! The first meeting I had with Jack I knew he was going to find us our perfect home - they prepared us for all steps we needed and everything to expect as first time homebuyers, saving us tons of stress and confusion. Jack was never trying to sell us a house but to find us our home. Huge thanks to everyone in his team, to make this amazing journey even more amazing.

Fantastic experience: Could not more highly recommend the Shorb Fafoglia Group! Eric and Jack are outstanding. They are extremely knowledgeable about the DC market but also broader real estate landscape and helped guide us through selling our first home. They are very thorough and process driven, go above and beyond in making themselves available, easy to communicate with, and address every question or concern. We can say with 100% certainty that our house would not have sold at the same speed or price point if we had not worked with them. We feel lucky to have worked with such incredible realtors!

Fantastic experience: As first-time home buyers, we significantly benefitted from Jack and Eric's expertise of the home buying process and knowledge of the DC market. They were super helpful in getting our "ducks in a row" for the purchase and incredibly flexible for the house tours in multiple neighborhoods. When we finally found "the one", even in a competitive situation they were able to advise on negotiations to beat out more than 4 other offers. Since purchase, all of their recommended contractors have also been fabulous. Can't recommend the SF team enough!

Fantastic experience: I recently relocated to the area from the west coast. I knew very little about the area and had little excess time to educate myself. Jack helped me find exactly what I was looking for. He has a detailed and nuanced understanding of the area. He is thoughtful and poised. He listened carefully and was able strike a delicate balance between conflicting and even contradictory goals. When we found the house that we wanted, he helped us put together a winning bid in an extremely competitive market.

Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed working with Eric and Jack through the entire house-buying process. They are so incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. We feel very grateful for all of their help!

Fantastic experience: Working with this group was fun, educational and efficient. Jack was very patient in helping me find a great condo no matter how indecisive I was. He helped me feel confident in making a decision by teaching me what to look out for/pay attention to. The team was very responsive to emails and calls and texts, respectful and professional while still making the search fun. I 100% recommend them for your real estate needs.

Fantastic experience: Working with Jack and Eric was a pleasure. I contacted them to assist in the sale of a condo. They provided information and services that both exceeded my expectations and made the entire process hassle free. I do not live local to the property that they were marketing, and they were able to handle all aspects of the sale remotely. The condo needed repairs and staging. Their trusted team worked diligently and quickly to prepare for the selling process. In addition their office staff was very thorough and professional. I highly recommend Shorb Fafoglia Group.

Fantastic experience: Eric and Jack were an extreme pleasure to work with. Although it took some time to find the home we wanted because of the market, they were patient with us. We never felt pressured or rushed by the team. Eric and Jack took time to educate us about the process and ensured that we made the decisions that were best for us. We highly recommend the team to anyone looking to buy a home. Go with Eric and Jack! You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: The DMV is a challenging housing market and a good agent makes all the difference. Jack and Eric helped us navigate rising interest rates and fierce competition all while keeping our long term happiness their priority. We cannot recommend them enough.

Fantastic experience: Jack & Eric's professionalism and extensive expertise in all facets required for preparing, showing and finalizing the sale of our home were second to none. Their wise guidance, substantive support and timely communications throughout the process made it clear that we were in the best of hands.

Fantastic experience: Jack and Eric are amazing! We’ve gone thru the home buying and selling process many times and they have definitely stood out as responsive, knowledgeable and made us feel important and prioritized. They really took the time to listen to our needs and ultimately doing what’s right for our family. We would highly recommend and in fact, will continue doing business with them as we look for investment properties now that they helped us purchase our dream home. Thank you!!!

Fantastic experience: Jack and everyone on his team were amazing to work with. I am a first time home buyer and they walked me through the process so well. Would highly recommend working with them if you are looking in the DC area.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful people offering world class home buying service. They led us to the home of our dreams and we could not be happier!

Fantastic experience: Jack and Eric have now helped me navigate both the purchase and the sale of a home. They made the process incredibly smooth and provided invaluable advice to help close. They also maintain an excellent network of service providers who are able to address everything that could need to be done to prepare a home for sale. Jack and Eric's professionalism was a pleasure to work with and I won't hesitate to engage them for any future real estate transactions.

Fantastic experience: Our family had a wonderful experience with Jack and Eric. Both are highly professional, super friendly and so easy to work with. We could not be more thrilled with the overall experience from timing, to pricing, to staging, negotiating and closing. I would not hesitate to work with them again. Really appreciated how caring, honest and hard working they are through the entire buying and selling process. Would highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: It was a pleasure working with Ellie and Jack this past year! Shorb Fafoglia Group helped us sell our current house and find a new home in the DC area. They were extremely knowledgeable of the local market and provided strategic guidance throughout the process, even as market conditions began to shift in 2022. The team went above and beyond to locate listings, explore options, and help us close on a new house—always willing to accommodate our schedule with a positive, stress-free attitude. We wholeheartedly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: Eric and Jack make a fantastic team. Their energy and passion are palpable. I was fortunate enough to work w/ them on two transactions (selling and buying) and seeing them in their element was amazing. Their connections and insights are superb. Above all they're just super easy to work with and really listen to what you want. They do not pressure you to do anything you are not absolutely 100% comfortable with. Great guys and a fantastic group to work with. A++++

Fantastic experience: Thank you to Eric and Jack and everyone else on their who worked so hard to help my wife and I find our new home. This was my first time buying and I appreciated how both Eric and Jack explained in detail the entire home buying process before we even got started. It made me feel much more at ease at jumping into the whole ordeal. They were a pleasure to work with and communication was never an issue. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Ellie Shorb and her team are phenomenal experts. She helped us navigate the local market with success and assisted us in finding a great realtor for our next home. Ellie puts the compassion in Compass. We could not be more pleased! Kathy Barry and Hank Cormier

Fantastic experience: We couldn’t have asked for a better team to help us find our home! Jack and Eric were fantastic to work with. They were extremely helpful, patient, and worked hard to find us our dream place. Not to mention, they made house hunting extremely fun! We highly recommend this group.

Fantastic experience: Eric, Jack, and team were a delight to work with as we purchased our first home. We had several neighborhoods and only vague structural requirements in mind when we started, and they worked tirelessly to help us triangulate on a place we're now thrilled to call home. Their thoughtful and strategic guidance on shifting market conditions and consistently quick responses to our inquiries left us impressed. We will certainly plan to go back to the Shorb Fafoglia Group in the future for our DC real estate needs.

Fantastic experience: Jack and Eric were amazing to work with; they made my homebuying experience so much more easier and smoother than I expected. As a first time homebuyer searching for a home virtually, I was expecting this to be a difficult process with lots of disappointments. However, from my first Zoom call with Eric and Jack, I was met with professionalism, friendliness and a peace of mind. They made me feel optimistic about finding the perfect home at the right time, and they were spot on! After a few zoom house tours and a single in person visit by my parents, I found the right home and my offer was accepted (under asking). Jack helped me with the inspection process, ensuring all of the fixes were completed, and he ensured that I close right on time. I would recommend these guys to everyone, and I will definitely be asking them for help again! Thank you guys!

Fantastic experience: It truly was a pleasure working with this team. As a first time buyer, Brendon, Ellie, and Jack put all my worries to rest. They were very knowledgeable of all the areas in the DMV and could always count on a quick response, day, night, and weekend. In a tight market they are definitely the team you want on your side.

Fantastic experience: From our perspective as first time homebuyers, we cannot recommend Eric, Jack, Abi, and Caresse highly enough! Together, they are a fantastic and extremely approachable team. From day one, they set a precedent that they were going to listen to our needs, answer our questions, and make us feel as comfortable as possible during the home-buying process. Every instance of communication was timely, clear, and sincere. Additionally, the whole team remained flexible with our challenging schedules and very tight buying timeline, working quickly and expediting items as needed. We are so happy with our new home and all the decisions we made along the way, thanks to the guidance we received from Eric & the team!

Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience selling and buying my home with Eric and Jack. The guidance they provided to prep and sell my townhouse was spot on for the current market and the buyers I’d encounter. I received many offers immediately after going on the market and received an excellent sales price. They also helped me make great decisions when it came time to purchase my new home. I was able to craft an acceptable offer without breaking the bank. I will definitely consider the Shorb Fafoglia Group when it comes time to buy and sell again.

Fantastic experience: We met Jack knowing virtually nothing about the process and what we had ahead of us. Almost immediately, he'd gotten us up to speed; on the steps we'd have to take, the market dynamics, how we should approach the search, etc. It was the best beginning to the relationship. And then, at every point along the way, Jack was an incredible partner. We ended up - almost immediately, and with no complications or drama - in the perfect house for us. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Jack and Team!

Fantastic experience: Eric was professional, knowledgeable and highly responsive. Working with him was a first-time homeowner's dream! He offered in-depth insights on every property and patiently answered what felt like hundreds of questions. Eric went above and beyond to ensure that I felt comfortable making informed decisions, every step of the way. I have recommended him to all of my friends in the DMV!

Fantastic experience: Eric and Jack were simply wonderful to work with. As first time homebuyers in a competitive market, we were looking for a real estate agent that would listen to us, represent our best interest, and navigate all the hurdles that can occur. Eric and Jack were always very responsive to our questions, provided great recommendations for attorneys/lenders to work with, and advocated for our needs throughout the whole process. We found a great house in record time thanks to their efforts. We are so lucky to have worked with them!

Fantastic experience: I relocated from out of state to Maryland. Eric Fafoglia, with Ellie Shorb and Jack Shorb, guided me through finding a home and then finalizing a complicated transaction. Eric took care of every detail and went out of his way to ensure a successful move to a home that I love. I would not hesitate to recommend the Shorb Fafoglia Group of Compass Realty.

Fantastic experience: Eric & Jack were fantastic to work with as my husband & I navigated selling our first condo. They were knowledgeable, transparent, and incredibly responsive. They were so helpful throughout the entire process - advising us on the right time to list so that we hit the market at the right time, providing comps, and pricing it competitively so that it sold in a weekend with multiple offers. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell in the DC area.

Fantastic experience: Truly the best in the area! Eric helped us find a rental property so it was a no brainer to reach out to him when we were ready to buy. As first time home buyers, you want to feel like you're in good hands and working with someone who has your best interest in mind – Eric went above and beyond. He worked around our crazy schedules, answered all our questions, asked questions we didn't even think to ask and most importantly (especially for the DC market) moved fast. When we found a home we want to submit an offer for he worked on the offer immediately. We now live there! Friends and family who were home owners warned me that the experience would be long and stressful...but it was easy and seamless with Eric. I could truly go on...he has incredible connections and relationships in the area, too. From a home inspection recommendation to a lender, he has answers for every step of the home buying process.

Fantastic experience: Eric and Jack are without a doubt the most professional, responsive, and patient realtors on the market. As a first time home buyer, Eric and Jack initially got a solid understanding of what I was looking for, and took the time to thoughtfully help me seek out and purchase my first home. I started looking in January 2021 and purchased my home in July 2021 -- during that stretch, the market was incredibly competitive and Eric and Jack ensured I understood how to develop a competitive offer strategy that ultimately landed my first home in the midst of the difficult market. Regardless of market conditions, buyers or sellers market, Eric and Jack will ensure you have all of the tools, market research, and data available to make your decision and negotiate on your behalf. I highly recommend working with them - I will contact them when I'm ready to purchase a second home, sell my home, and recommend them to all of my close friends and family.

Fantastic experience: Working with Eric was a flexible, stress free experience in buying my first home. He was very patient with me in explaining each part of the process and going to see many different types of listings help me learn what I was really looking for. In the end, I was able to get into a bigger home than I had expected (& with parking!). When the time came, Eric was the one to make the offer and negotiate on my behalf when my home was only on the market for ONE DAY. Thanks Eric!

Fantastic experience: Eric and Jack were SUCH a contrast compared to our disappointing first realtor. As first time homebuyers in such a competitive market, we were expecting this to be a long and difficult process with lots of disappointments. We were also long distance buyers in NYC unfamiliar with the DC area. From the time I contacted Eric, I was met with sincere kindness, optimism, and professionalism. I felt confident that we’d find our home with Eric’s help and I was right! After a day of zoom house tours and a single in person visit, our offer was accepted (under asking/no inspection waiving in this crazy market)! Eric also referred to us a local lender who was extremely easy to work with and we closed right on time. I would recommend Eric to anyone and everyone! We will move back to CA in a few years and when it’s time I will definitely be asking Eric to help us again! Thank you Eric and Jack!

Fantastic experience: Eric was just an outstanding realtor to deal with. He walked us through each step of the process, found great listings for us to review and ultimately was integral in us finding our dream home.

Fantastic experience: Eric and Jack are honestly amazing realtors and humans. I cannot express how much i appreciate them and their work. Without these two we wouldn't have found such a perfect place while having such a great time! Thank you both for changing our lives and helping us find the perfect place for our family!

Fantastic experience: Eric is the kind of the realtor you want on your side when trying to navigate through this grueling DMV housing market. We ran into Eric at an open house event in early 2020 and has been instrumental in us finding our dream home! His knowledge of the DMV area is phenomenal and has great insights on what to look for and more importantly, how to navigate the housing market. One of the most important qualities we were looking for in a realtor is someone that understood our taste. Eric very quickly understood what we were looking for and gave us great pointers on how we could visualize our lives in the houses we toured. There were many times when the craziness of the housing market caused us to lose hope but Eric was right there to make sure that we stayed the course. He came up with ideas on what we could do in certain types of houses and spent a lot of time in strategizing on which houses to go all in and which ones to not. Eric had a sense of what type of renovations we could do in certain houses to truly bring out the hidden value. Eric is the person that one needs to have in maneuvering through the DMV housing market. We are truly glad we got to know Eric and we highly recommend him as a realtor.

Fantastic experience: It has been a pure pleasure working with Eric Fafoglia. He was professional, personable, polite, kind, patient, detail oriented, responsive and a great listener in order to know our specific needs and wants in finding the perfect house for us. We were moving from VA to MD and although our house hunting process seemed endless and quite disappointing at times in this market, he made sure to encourage us during the process and kept searching for us. Eric made every effort to schedule appointments with sellers’ agents according to our hectic work schedules and met us to show us properties (our search area was 4 hours away from our home and about an hour away from Eric’s office). Once we found the house and made an offer he assisted us during the negotiation process and made certain that we stayed on task and that all appointments for inspections were completed on time. He worked closely with the listing agent of our home in VA and with our loan officer, so that we were able to close on both homes (sell and purchase) on the same day. We would highly recommend Eric Fafoglia and his team as your listing or buyer’s agent and we would definitely without any hesitation request his services again in the future. Sincerely, David & Vicky Sapp

Fantastic experience: Eric was a professional and fun to work with. He stayed ahead of the curve giving us market updates and demonstrated his knowledge of the DMV. His process was thorough and helped us stay grounded throughout the home buying process. As a first-time home buyer, he set expectations and delivered every time. I would highly recommend working with Eric.

Fantastic experience: Eric was really great! He helped us to buy our first ever house in early 2021. He and his business partner Jack were really helpful and professional during the whole process. There is not a single question you have that Eric can’t respond. We also felt they really cared about finding the best home for you and they really try to understand what you’re looking for. We got our amazing house on our second offer and it was definitely thanks to their knowledge and experience that we got it. We can’t recommend him enough!
