If you haven't worked with Gretchen before, let me tell ya: always listen to whatever she says. She hasn't been wrong yet and we would possibly follow her to the end of the earth if she told us we'd like living there. Gretchen and her son, Kevin, provided excellent guidance and assistance during the home purchasing process.

If you don't have the money, you can't buy the house. It's that simple. In the Washington Metropolitan Area, it is essential that homebuyers get pre-approved by a local lender prior to beginning their home search. This tends to scare potential buyers who fear a long, arduous process that they're not quite ready to attack.

Our experience with the Koitz Group was fantastic; from their expert advice and work helping us prep the property ...to settlement. We sold our home in two days!!! They are professionals with deep ties to the area who know and understand the market. And most importantly they are a joy to work with. The Koitz Group gets our highest recommendation.

In September 2017 we sold our Bethesda home and we could not have been more pleased with our real estate agent, Kevin Koitz with The Koitz Group @ Compass. We highly recommend Kevin and Koitz Group @ Compass for buying and selling real estate in the greater Bethesda area.
We first met Kevin and Gretchen in 2014 when we fell in love with a home on their state of the art website. There were multiple offers on the home and even though we weren’t the highest bidder, we still got the house due to the creativity of Kevin and Gretchen. Fast forward 3 years and a job change, we needed to relocate and

Absolutely I-n-c-r-e-d-I-b-l-e!!! I can't say enough amazon things about Jason Koitz and his team. They sold our Co-Op for above what we thought we could get at a record price for our building in less than two weeks. There were some snag and slings and arrows along the way to the final closing, and Jason handled them and kept things calm and running smoothly until the very end. He even handled small repairs right before closing, finding the perfect contractor and making sure all parties and our board were happy in the most professional, charming and smooth manner possible. Jason is not

We found the best realtor in DC at Koitz Group! Working with David was absolutely wonderful, and he was a pleasure to work with through the entire process. The DC market is extremely competitive, but David's knowledge, experience, communication and professionalism helped us win our dream home! David went above and beyond in securing the purchase of our home. He kept us organized in the close process to ensure we could close in 30 days - he also helped us identify a home inspector and electrician since this was our first home purchase - both recommendations were amazing. We would highly recommend

As first-time homebuyers and very deliberate people, we solicited recommendations of realtors from several friends and colleagues, read reviews, and interviewed four highly recommended agents. What impressed us about David Abrams was his knowledge of the local market, command of the process, and earnest commitment to hustle for us. He exhibited the best kind of MBA-ness: confidence, savvy, and the kind of tenacity you want on your side in any negotiations. Also, we liked him -- and trusted him. So we picked David, and we're so glad we did. He responded to emails and calls in minutes, and whether

We recently purchased our first home in D.C. David Abrams was our realtor....and working with him was great! We also had the pleasure of speaking with other members of the Koitz Group, and each person displayed the same level of interest and attention.
David helped us through the entire process of buying our first home. Although the process took longer than expected, he was persistent and stayed patient and informative the whole way through. He is extremely knowledgable of the market as well as construction. He was also incredibly responsive to all of our questions and concerns. I would highly

David Abrams is THE real estate agent that you want if you are buying or selling a home in the greater Washington area. We used him to buy and sell our townhouse in Rockville, MD and he took immense care of us on both ends.
Here were some of the highlights
- Skilled Negotiator. Numbers don't lie... we bought our house for 470k and sold in 18 months later for 499k! Dave advised us on how to time the market to get the best deal on both ends and how to work the other side. Because of Dave, a situation that should have resulted in a significant loss, turned into a significant profit!!

My husband and I LOVED working with Jason Koitz of the Koitz Group while purchasing our first home. Jason listened to our wants and needs and directed us to the perfect options. His efficiency in his work led us to closing in just a few weeks after we began our search! We value responsiveness, knowledge, ease of interaction and completeness in task when working with anyone, and Jason embodies all characteristics.
The group's use of technology was also exciting and unexpected. Their website's interface was clean and easy to use on my mobile devices. Very little to no paper exchanges

I had a truly outstanding experience with the Koitz Group. David Abrams was my realtor- he and the Koitz team really went the extra mile to help guide me to the perfect home in DC, from all the way across the country while I was selling my other home in San Diego. I had contacted other agents, but David far and away was the most responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. He (and Jason) worked with my restricted schedule and made me feel like my search was as high priority to them as it was to me. The welcoming, friendly attitude of the Koitz Group truly made me feel comfortable in a new city, and I

I have had the pleasure of working with Jason Koitz in the hunt for my first home. Given that I am a first time home buyer it was and is a scary process, let alone I had no idea what I was doing. However Jason has made it such a easy, smooth and educational process. He is the ultimate professional, he was very diligent throughout the process and truly listened and understood what it was exactly I was looking for. He was very honest and upfront all while keeping my best interest in mind which I appreciated most. I would and will work with Jason again in the future and would highly recommend him

When I need a real estate team in Bethesda, I always call the Koitz Group. There's really on two things I expect out of any real estate agent: consistent communication and high quality customer service. The Koitz Group has consistently nailed both of these two expectations right on the head, and I recommend them to anyone I know moving into the area.

What an amazing agent! Gretchen and her whole team became like family as we worked to find our home.
Not only was she able to get us top dollar for the house we were selling, but she helped us to find a home that worked for us in a neighborhood we wanted to be in. Gretchen's relationships with others in the industry helped us in every aspect from closing to renovations - and I would give each of her references that we used a 5 Star rating, too! She is thorough, reliable, honest, insightful, and kind.

Gretchen and the Koitz Group came very highly recommended by a personal friend of ours who had used her services in finding every house she's ever owned. So after 2 years of sharing an apartment together and getting married, my wife and I began the hunt for our first home and selected Gretchen and the Koitz group as our Realtors.
There is not one bad thing we could say about the process we went through buying our first house with them. Never pushy, Gretchen and her staff believe strongly in educating the buyer to empower them to make an informed decision. They are so incredibly friendly
