We closed on the sale of our Kalorama townhouse on June 30 and a week later we are still trying to figure out how we managed it. The answer is Jim Bell. Without his understanding of the real estate market, his experience, and his advice, which was unfailingly on target from setting the price to explaining how we could make the sale work from our Covid-19 hideaway in Colorado, he was the real estate agent equivalent of the best backcountry guide. Our sale started in December when we left for Colorado and put our house up for sale in January. We took it off the market in March, but Jim's close attention assured us that it had been seen enough to engender interest. When we declined the first offer, Jim was understanding and patient.

Following his assurances that Covid-19 and the 1,800 miles daunting to us were not a barrier to achieving our goal, we nervously accepted a second offer. To our amazement, everything moved forward without a hitch, just as Jim assured us it would. Jim Bell is the best of the best.
My wife and I recently purchased our home with Brent Hardie from the Jim Bell Group and we could not recommend him enough! The process as a first-time homebuyer was very stressful and overwhelming, especially in this market. Brent was there every step of the way to provide expert guidance and wanted us to find the right home for us, not just settle on any home! He is super responsive, and professional, and really took the time to listen to our wants and needs. When working with Brent, it feels like you're working with a friend and not a real estate agent. That gave us hope and comfort that he would find the perfect house for us! If you are in the market for a home from DC to Annapolis, do yourself a favor and contact Brent Hardie!
I have nothing but positive things to say about Brent Hardie and The Jim Bell Group. Brent was awesome to work with. He was readily available, knowledgeable, and determined to help us find our first home. My fiancé and I were looking in several different areas of Maryland, from Severna Park to Catonsville, and Brent helped us narrow our search. We ended up buying in Catonsville, which is a very competitive real estate market. He was with us every step of the way, answering our calls and questions at all times of the day, and constantly staying up to date on our search. Brent helped us to find the perfect first home, and I would recommend him to anyone!
