Fantastic experience: Russ the Realtor was a pleasure to work with. He went above and beyond to make sure that our Maryland homebuying experience was amazing in every way. Because we live out of state, he worked with us using live video to view properties, saving us hours and hours of travel time. He listened to our wants and needs and helped us to find the perfect property. The entire process was streamlined, simple, and a pleasure from start to finish. Thank you Russ!

Fantastic experience: We recently purchased our first single-family home with Russ as our buyer’s agent, and we we cannot say enough good things about our experience with him. Russ was extremely patient and understanding throughout the process, and made sure we found the home that was just right for our family. Russ had an excellent understanding of the negotiation process in a very competitive Howard County market, and understood what offer we needed to make to get the deal done. He was also very personable and had a good rapport with the seller’s agent, which helped both sides come together and move the sale forward. Russ is also very well connected in the industry, and was able to recommend a lender and even a handyman, which made our lives much easier by not having to shop around. If you’re looking for someone down to earth, who responds in a timely manner, and prioritizes your family’s satisfaction (and sends you hilarious customized songs), look no further than Russ the Realtor. Like Russ always says, who you work with matters!

Fantastic experience: I don’t typically leave reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience. Allfirst Realty is an exceptionally professional team. They successfully sold my home during what is traditionally considered the “off-season,” right around the holidays when the market tends to slow down. Initially, I believed it would be best to wait until spring, but I decided to trust their expertise—and I’m so glad I did. They proved that when true professionals are involved, there is no such thing as an off-season. My home sold in December, during the Christmas season, and for the highest possible value. The guidance and recommendations from Russ and his assistant, Megan, were invaluable. Their knowledge, responsiveness, and strategic approach made the entire process smooth and stress-free. From start to finish, they were an absolute pleasure to work with. As a thoughtful touch, the team even surprised me with a small gift and cake at settlement, which truly made the experience even more special. I highly recommend Allfirst Realty to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. If you’re considering making a move, don’t wait—you’re just one phone call away from success. Thank you to the entire Allfirst Realty team!
