Reviews


Highly likely to recommend

“I usually don’t leave reviews, but I can't recommend David Wheaton highly enough. He was unfailingly knowledgeable, good humored and available for any questions we had. He made the entire process easy and even enjoyable in a very unpredictable market. We love our new home and David played a large part in finding the perfect one.”

“I’ve had my fair share of realtors in my life and there has never been one that I absolutely loved working with besides David. David by far exceeded all my expectations in a realtor. He was extremely responsive, caring and knew his stuff! He made my home purchase experience a breeze and took care of me from start to finish. David will forever be my go-to realtor as long as he’s in this business. If you are looking for an excellent realtor who you can trust to get the job done, look no further! Call him now! Nancy S. - David’s expertise and guidance was invaluable in our search for a home during the recent volatile real estate market. His knowledge of the market, responsiveness, hard work and extensive research helped us navigate, and avoid moves we would have surely regretted. Over the course of our search, David became a trusted friend and advocate with his seemingly unlimited amount of patience, (we admittedly required a lot) and cool, calm demeanor. We recommend him highly. And yes...we like David very much.”

“David was so much more than I expected from a real estate agent. My fiancée and I were first-time home buyers who had reached out to David on a recommendation from a friend. David was prompt to set up a call to walk us through the process and understand our wants and needs. His knowledge and years of experience in the greater Baltimore area were exactly what we needed, having never previously bought. He was always available for a conversation and was more than happy to address my many questions. If he didn't know the answer, he knew somebody who did. David was especially effective when it came to establishing lines of communication across all parties involved when we began making an offer. He was in lockstep with our lender to ensure we were able to present our best offer in a timely manner. As a younger millennial, many of my friends and colleagues will be entering the market in the near term and I will be eager to recommend David to each of them.”

“If there were 6 stars, he would get six. I have been fortunate to buy several homes in my lifetime and have worked with wonderful real estate agents, but NONE compared to David Wheaton. He is competent, thorough, attentive and seems to be 1 step ahead in all arenas of home purchasing which is rare to find. If I am blessed to buy more property I will be doing so only with David. To me, he was my lottery win for this decade.”

“We tell everyone - we were so lucky to find David! David patiently shepherded us through our journey as we explored properties that fit the broad idea of what we wanted, and as we narrowed our spec to find the perfect fit. Through each phase, David - who’s both an experienced agent and was previously a lawyer (useful for explaining legalese!) - was very accessible and responsible, going out of his way to answer or get answers to even the littlest question. He also has a strong list of contractor and suppliers, which came in handy several times, including when our lender was slow to help. We closed yesterday and cannot be happier. We attribute the speed and success of our purchase to David, and recommend him without reservation.”
