As a first-time home buyer, I was looking for an agent with the industry intelligence, appreciation of my best interests and patience to walk me through the process from start to finish – and David Shotwell encompassed all of that and more. Anyone will realize after chatting with him for a couple of minutes that David’s amiable real estate charm stems from a genuine desire to make sure that his client is happy – and that is hugely important when making this kind of milestone decision. I cannot imagine going through the buying process without an agent like David who pointed out new opportunities, calmly explained lengthy loan documents, patiently listened to my concerns and provided thoughtful, intelligent and actionable feedback. My buying process was well-planned, swift and without stress, primarily due to David’s diligent follow-up with all parties, his consideration of my needs and concerns and his funny and lighthearted company throughout the entire cycle. I’m shocked at how easily he facilitated the process, and I’m incredibly grateful for his support throughout it. Point being, David is someone you want on your side when buying a home. Whether it is your first home or your tenth, he is someone who you can trust to get the job done (and to make you laugh a couple of times along the way.) I’m very happy with my experience.— Matt, Logan Circle
