“Mary did an amazing job helping me purchase my first home. Going through the home buying process during COVID was quite an experience but Mary helped me remain optimistic every step of the way. She is a pro! She helped me research and really determine what types of factors were important to me, and which things I could live without. Mary always gave me a dose of reality about other comps and why the market is the way it is right now. She has amazing customer service and worked hard on my behalf with third parties involved in the process when they were slow to respond or didn’t provide a sufficient response. Mary will do everything possible to advocate on your behalf, which is such a comforting feeling when parts of the process feel overwhelming or challenging. A great example of this was the pre-loan qualification process and then the final portion to have all my ducks in a row right before my closing date. She helped make sure I knew what documents would be expected and why the underwriters needed specific details. Mary isn’t an underwriter but she has so much experience she “gets it” and can convey the underlying rationale to her customers. I’ll put it this way – if you were a famous movie star, Mary is a top-notch agent representing YOU. She makes her customers feel like priority #1 all the time. She will answer any question or help with a problem day or night, around the clock, and always with a positive attitude. Mary is dedicated to her career and will not let you down. She knows the market and current trends, and networks with her peers and other vendors who work in the business. Her ability to combine all of these elements makes her a force to be reckoned with!! You won’t regret selecting Mary DeRose to help you buy your next home. ??Sept. 27, 2021

“You are the best and exceeded all of my expectations as a first-time seller. I could not have don’t it without you. Thank you! ”

I highly recommend Mary DeRose. This is the second time I’ve worked with her and I chose her because of my positive first experience. I recently purchased a house in Rockville with Mary as my agent. I started my search in a rather broad area and narrowed it down. Although Mary knew I wouldn’t be happy in some of the areas I initially decided to look in, she was patient with me and showed me what was available. When I began to focus on the area I eventually bought in, she kept daily tabs on the new listings in my area and price range and helped me narrow down my choices based on the features most important to me. Mary also sold my house in Potomac. I prepared it for the market shortly after settling on the house in Rockville and moving in. Not only did Mary work with me to make sure my house would show as well as possible, but she was also practical and flexible about pricing advice. The house sold relatively quickly. Throughout the process, Mary was extremely professional and had good relationships with the other professionals–realtors, brokers, financial personnel, etc. I recommend Mary without hesitation.  Dec. 6, 2018 

Mary was extremely professional and experienced. . What was particularly impressive was she was so proactive – she alerted us to issues and handled them before they became a problem. I also really liked the photos taken, especially the aerial photos of the house. Even though we were living out of  state she constantly in touch, informing us of the progress of the sale and what was going on. Mary is also a very pleasant person to work with. She more than earned her commission and I highly recommend her. Oct. 31, 2018 

Mary was extremely easy to work with and knowledgeable about all of the large and small details involved in listing and selling our home. She kept us informed at each stage of the process and was responsive to all of our requests. We recommend her highly.  Sept. 11, 2018

Mary is extremely knowledgeable about real estate in the DC metropolitan area. She knows just how and where to market and was very successful in selling my condo so quickly! I would highly recommend her for any of your real estate needs. She’s also just great to talk to! February 21, 2018

With Mary DeRose as our realtor we recently sold our Derwood home after only 3 days on the market! Ms. DeRose was very knowledgeable about our neighborhood and the housing market in general. She met with us several times to give us ideas about updates that would increase the value and desirability of our home. She also gave us great tips for little things that helped us prepare for listing. During the whole process – from listing to settlement – she kept us informed and answered all of our questions. We felt very comfortable with the outcome of our sale being in Ms. DeRose’s hands and highly recommend her! June 24, 2016

Mary was excellent in helping us navigate through the new TRID policies when we bought our home. She is patient, professional and cares about her clients. I would recommend her to any of my friends.  Dec. 4, 2015
