“There are 3 things I admire most in Dawn Fender: integrity, experience, and honesty. She researched the local market before our first interview and gave us the number she felt would put us in a good position to sell our house. She was absolutely right. We had an amazing turn out that only took 3 days on the market before we chose a buyer from a large list of candidates. We had already moved to another state and Dawn handled everything in our absence. I highly recommend Dawn Fender. There is not enough space in this review to explain how appreciative I am that we had her working with us. She kept us informed at every step. Her advise gave us the confidence of knowing that we were making the right decisions during every part of the process.”

“My wife and I recently worked with Dawn Fender to purchase our first home in the heart of Baltimore. We could not be happier with our experience and would gladly recommend Dawn’s services to anyone looking for a realtor in the city (and beyond). Dawn demonstrated a high degree of expertise and professionalism resulting in a smooth, no-stress home buying experience. This included (but was not limited to) extreme attention to detail, high responsiveness, and considerable connections to a variety of housing/real estate professionals. Herself a long-time resident of the Baltimore area, we were consistently impressed with Dawn’s deep knowledge of the city and its homes - an asset she leveraged to anticipate challenges and keep everything running smoothly. However, what truly elevated our experience with Dawn was the care and personal touch that she brought to every step of the home-buying process. Dawn made herself available to us prior to any contracting and has remained a trusted resource after closing. From the start Dawn made an effort to get to know us and keep our goals/priorities for a home at the forefront of each decision. If you are in the market for an excellent realtor and a pleasant experience purchasing a home, you can’t do better than Dawn Fender.”

“We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Dawn--she was an absolute dream to work with! From the very first conversation, she made us feel supported, heard, and completely at ease during what can be such a stressful and overwhelming process. Her knowledge of the Baltimore market is unmatched. She knew the ins and outs of every neighborhood we were interested in, and her advice was always thoughtful, honest, and clearly rooted in years of experience. She never pressured us, she never rushed us-- just guided us with patience and genuine care. When it came time to put in an offer, she worked her magic to make sure we were competitive, protected, and fully informed every step of the way. She communicated constantly, and went above and beyond to make sure no detail was overlooked-- she showed up for us EVERY step of the way. We felt like we had someone who genuinely wanted us to find a home that we loved, not just a quick sale. Thanks to Dawn, we're settling into a home that feels PERFECT for us and our pups, and we couldn't be more grateful. If you're buying a home in Baltimore, do yourself a favor and work with Dawn. She's not just a great realtor-- she's a total gem of a human being!”

"This may not be everyone’s opinion, but when you’re choosing a surgeon, the one who’s “Insta-famous” for funny posts is not the one I want operating on me. I want the one who’s focused on their craft, not their follower count. Same goes for realtors IMHO. There are realtors—the sales reps —and there are REALTORS—the ones who actually care, think, and do the work. John is a REALTOR. The kind of … Read MoreRead Less

"John was recommended to us when we started the journey of buying a house, and we are very grateful that he was. We found that having John as your agent is to benefit from his ability to not only break down every step of what is a very intimidating process but to also benefit from his ability to guide you through those steps with patience, attention to detail, and with clear dedication to you as hi… Read MoreRead Less

"John went above and beyond for my partner and I as we were buying our first home. He took us through each step of the process, so we clearly understood what we needed and answered all of our questions along the way. He made sure that the home we were buying fit our current and future needs. He even came and picked us up for closing in the snowstorm so we wouldn't lose our parking.

"We recently purchased a home in Baltimore while living in Texas, and we cannot thank John Maranto enough for making this process seamless and stress-free. From our first conversation, it was clear that John is deeply knowledgeable about the Baltimore market, pointing out nuances in neighborhoods that we never would have known from afar. He is incredibly attuned to the needs of his clients; he lis… Read MoreRead Less

His suggestions for minor improvements were spot-on and directly contributed to generating strong interest and a fast sale. He oversaw the recommended updates and managed the process seamlessly, which made everythin… Read MoreRead Less

"John Maranto was absolutely stellar to work with. He invested a lot of time in both my wife and I to ensure that not only did we buy the house we wanted, but also bought the house we *needed*.

"Working with John was great. He’s a straight up and straightforward agent. Really took care of me and got me into a home that was right for me.

We set expectations and goals and I think that meeting went a long way to easing my anxieties a… Read MoreRead Less

"In my book, Kelly Wise was the best realtor I’ve ever worked with. She knew the market and helped us successfully sell our father’s house. Kelly supported us at every decision point with expert guidance - making recommendations but providing the space to ask questions, which enabled us to get to the right decision. We lived at a distance during the entire process, and Kelly consistently stepped in… Read MoreRead Less

"Our home buying experience with Kelly could not have been better! Even with it being the start of a seemingly endless seller's market, Kelly kept us extremely motivated while the houses that we liked were going under contract in what felt like seconds after listing! Then we found the perfect home.. Kelly could tell by our faces that this was the one we loved. She was able to help us come up with t… Read MoreRead Less

"My husband and I bought a house early this year. We are so happy we crossed paths with Kelly. Kelly accommodated for the evening showings which were what fit our schedule at the time. We had her driving up and down but she always had a smile! When we found the home for us, we were closing within a month. Kelly made sure she was on top of everything and made it happen even though there were some hu… Read MoreRead Less

Her local knowledge of the area, energy, marketing the house, patience with seller (yes - me) - I could not have worked with a better person. I highly recommend Jenn as an agent to either sell or buy. She will be there for you - answer calls and texts immediately. You really feel… Read MoreRead Less

"The housing market is insane these days. Jenn was an asset that helped get us the house that we loved. We had to beat out a large number of offers to get our house. Without her, I don't believe that would have been possible. She is extremely responsive, and was able to answer the many questions we had as first time homeowners. We were incredibly comfortable with the process with her at our side. W… Read MoreRead Less

"I can’t say enough good things about what it is like to work with Jenn. She helped us purchase our first home a few years ago and made that entire process painless and so exciting for us. Now almost 3 years later, she helped us sell our house after 3 days on the market for WAY over asking, giving us tons of advice that helped our house show as amazing as possible and find the perfect buyers.

"Jenn is an exemplary realtor in all aspects of the business. Jenn handles both spur of the moment questions and the larger more intimidating aspects of selling and buying with the same level of expertise and friendly advice.

"From start to finish of selling my home, Rodney was so patient, kind and professional. Selling my home as-is made me quite nervous for offers but he eased my fears and made me feel very confident and comfortable.

He kept me very informed throughout the process, was always available by text and call to ans… Read MoreRead Less

"Rodney was really the best! From the beginning to the end he thoroughly walked me through everything I needed to know and do to sell my home and purchase my new home. He told me all of the repairs I needed to do before putting my house on the market and explained why some of them that I didn’t think would make much of a difference did. He also showed me a lot of things to consider when we toured p… Read MoreRead Less
