Client Testimonials

“Lewie Aldridge knows his stuff. That is what you need to go through the buying process. All agents are not the same, Lewie rises above. Thank you for your patience with a nervous buyer. Everything worked as you said it would.”

Liz OMalley

“Diana and Chris helped us sell our house in a slow market. They were aggressive in their marketing efforts and gave us good advice on how to prep the house for market given the current environment. We closed remotely, so their timely and through communications throughout the process very much appreciated!”

Dustin Adams

“My selling agent was Lewie Aldridge, III. Not only is he proactive, resourceful, trustworthy, attentive, empathetic but also savvy and strategic. He also provided some wonderful resources for contractors (getting new flooring) and was tenacious in getting me the best deal along with being very responsive and accessible. I definitely have and had peace of mind with Lewie's handling of my purchase transaction.”

Trudy White

“I have worked closely with Geoffrey since 2021.  He has always been reliable, accessible, quick to respond and, most importantly, honest to a fault.  Whenever I had questions, he was always able to answer them quickly and completely.  I would wholeheartedly & emphatically recommend working with him.”

Chris Hanley

“I work with Chris professionally and worked with her on the purchase of my last home. Her and the whole team are super professional and handle every detail of the transaction with ease while explaining every detail so it makes sense.”

Darren Rickwood

“Christine McNelis recently represented me in a real estate transaction. She has been my realtor for 20 years . I am now proud to say she is also my friend. Chris handled a multitude of projects for me. She has always gone above and beyond to make sure I was protected, while making sure we accomplished our goals fairly, and efficiently. I could not imagine going through my real estate transactions without Chris and her vast knowledge of real estate as well as her professionalism. I never worried about anything because she always had my best interests first. I wish I could give her 10 stars, but I’m limited to five. I highly recommend Christine McNelis for any real estate transaction. She is the best.”

Karen Taylor

“We were selling our parents home that had been in the family for over 40 years and were struggling with the entire process especially because none of us lived in the area. Chris and Will were excellent and made the process simple for us! First, Chris' deep knowledge of the waterfront market in Southern MD was impressive and she realized the value of our parent's home. She recommended a price that was well above the other two agents we spoke with and we ended up with a full price offer! Second, there were several repairs/updates that were needed from painting to power washing etc and Chris and Will had a great team of contractors available to quickly fix all the issues and they handled all the logistics with the contractors as well. Third, when we received an offer, Chris went through it in great detail with us giving her input and recommendations which ultimately closed the deal. Finally, their communication throughout the process was excellent. Whether via email or text, both Chris and Will were always available and quick to reply. In closing, I would highly recommend working with Chris, Will and their team. They made the selling process simple! :-)”

Rob Vasta

Stefon was wonderful to work with, he perused all avenues of options for us and indulged us with his experience in the field. He helped us understand each process throughout home hunting and buying. Very and highly appreciated! The team there is great.”

Savanna Dowell

Chris is simply the best—super professional, and she and her team will go above and beyond in all areas, from virtual walk-throughs to helping you get settled in your new house. Amazing realtor who knows everything about the area and will make your home buying experience a dream.

Chad S.

Chris is an absolute rockstar. She went above and beyond at every step of the process and is an expert on all things that come with living near and on the water—things we would have never known to ask. She also knows Southern Maryland like the back of her hand, and we have come to learn that she is one of the most respected people in this area. But most importantly, without a doubt, we would not have nabbed our new house without her. It was a hot market with multiple offers, but she was a pro's pro and made it happen!”
