Payam Bakhaje , GRI

I want everyone to know that my agent Payam Bakhaje of DC Realty Online is THE BEST. I listed my condo with him, and he gave me a real, state-of-affairs look at the DC real estate situation. He outlined possibilities, showed advantages and downsides. He then proceeded to market my property in the best possible way. He knew what would make my property attractive, and showed it in the best possible light. He was there for every inquiry, and protected my interest every step of the way in a truly professional manner. Thank you very much.

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to tell you how much Inappreciate your services as I purchased my first home. I found yournguidance and level of expertise priceless. I had encountered far toonmany agents, before working with you, that were too busy to work on mynschedule. You made sure to accommodate my needs (even when I wasnbeing difficult) and I am grateful. This distinguishes you from mostnother real estate agents.nnI was also impressed with your extensive knowledge of the area fromnShaw eastward to Eckington and your record of success in closing dealsnin these areas despite the stiff competition at some price points.nThis was my desired area of focus and not many agents have as muchnknowledge of these neighborhoods as you.nnI knew you were an exceptional agent when you were willing to meet menat 9pm on a Wednesday because a house just came on the market thatnseemed perfect for me. When I told you I wanted to buy it you stayednup till midnight with me writing the offer.nnAs you know, that contract was accepted at my lowest price the verynnext morning! There were multiple offers presented in just one day ofnthe house being on the market but you managed to negotiate that thensellers accept my offer with all of my contingencies, at my price, andnwith the closing cost concessions I requested! This point mustnemphasized because while the housing market has taken a serious hit,nthe houses I wanted and in the price range I was looking for,ncompetition was robust and many times deals were elusive. Sellers werentypically favoring buyers with 100% cash with no contingencies.nnWhile I did ultimately close on this house, the road to closing wasnlong and complicated. During this process, you gave me so much ofnyour time that I felt like I was your only client. However, I knownthat your life was busy and that you were forced to rearrange itnmultiple times to address the difficulties that cropped up while wentried to reach settlement.nnYou worked effectively with the listing agent, two title companies,nand all of the utility companies to help me navigate what turned outnto be a very complicated purchase. Not only that, you helped mensecure financing that addressed my unique situation with terms thatnwere extremely favorable to me. By closing, I got everything that Inwanted in terms of financing rate and type, significant concessionsnfrom the seller, and ensuring the condition of the property was what Inwanted by the time I took possession.nnI will be happy to recommend your services to all of my friends whonare looking to purchase or sell a house. You are an exceptionalnprofessional that displayed poise, experience, and knowledgenthroughout the process.
