TEAM’S CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Jennifer & Andrew have been great to work with - personally and professionally - in both the sale of our old house and purchase of our new one. Without getting into detail, our situation was quite complex on the purchase side - so much so that my wife and I agreed that it required more expertise than could be fairly expected of any typical realtor or broker. The Oldhams provided that expertise for us, and we ' ve already referred another couple to them. 5 stars!

BUYER AND SELLER

Jennifer and Andrew were wonderful to work with, starting with pricing and sales strategy right up to negotiations and closing Highly recommended They both are seasoned professionals able to manage the entire sales process, and having a lawyer on the team provides additional clarity for occasional complexities.

SELLER

Jen and Andrew have beyond exceeded our expectations They were patient with us through a long search process, provided a consultative approach along the way, set realistic expectations without letting us overpay and we ' re never just here to sell us any house When it came time to sell our home the team of people they work with to prep, the marketing support and the frequency of updates keeping us in the loop has once again been over the top We could not be happier to be working with them, will 100% be referring our friends and colleagues and will without question use them again in the future.

SAM’S CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Sam was great to work with Zillow recommended him to me for a property I was dealing with and I just went with him. I was a skeptical because I was a first time home buyer and I didn’t really know how to evaluate a good realtor. But Sam was very patient through the whole process with me - answering all my very basic questions with great patience. He was available at all times of the day. I would text him a random question at 10pm in the night and he’ll respond back without fail. I really appreciated the attention that was given to me. He also provided a lot of useful tips at each step of the process which was helpful. Although he wasn’t completely familiar with the property area, he worked with me to do some analysis on the area which helped in submitting an offer that eventually got approved. Will recommend him to all my friends.

BUYER

Samuel is friendly, professional, and dedicated - an exceptional agent I had the pleasure of working with Samuel to purchase my dream home this year. One of the outstanding qualities of Samuel is his dedication to the clients. He went above and beyond to ensure that I had all the information I needed to make informed decisions Whether it was scheduling property viewing tours, negotiating on my behalf, or providing valuable insights, Samuel was always available, working tirelessly to make my home-buying journey as smooth as possible.

A letter from Compass

CEO Robert Reffkin

Thank you for considering Compass to guide you through your home sale. At Compass, we ’ ve built the #1 real estate brokerage by sales volume in the United States and within 10-years of launching our first sale on Compass com, our agents have achieved over $1 trillion in sales volume We’ve accomplished this by helping homeowners like you protect and maximize the value of your most important asset – your home.

Compass has developed a 3-Phased Marketing Strategy, drawing on best practices from real estate developers, professional home builders, and luxury marketers to create demand, build momentum, and ensure your home is best-positioned for success. This phased marketing strategy can be far more effective than a single public launch. In the same way that Hollywood launches multiple trailers to build anticipation for a movie premiere, the Compass 3-Phased Marketing Strategy allows your agent to launch your listing multiple times, building similar excitement and demand.

Your Compass agent will guide you through every step of the strategy to help you choose what works best for your home and help ensure it receives the attention, interest, and the offers it deserves.
