In 2002, I chose to work with Brian Block as my real estate agent. as a first-time home buyer, I was anxious to get into the market, yet worried and confused by the varying advice I’d get from parents, friends, how-to-guides, and the media. When he helped cut through the fog and guide me step by step towards finding, financing, and buying my first home in Alexandria. He was knowledgeable about the market, the process, and always updated me on the newest available homes. Brian’s recommendations of a mortgage lender, inspector, and title company and his coordination of these various players throughout the sale was top-notch and made the whole purchase seamless. Brian helped me find the best condo in town — it’s a hidden gem that exceeded my expectations — fabulous price, convenient location, great construction and I just love the huge balcony! I recommend Brian wholeheartedly!
