Jenn Smira is the APEX predator of real estate - an absolute shark! There are not enough words to adequately describe how incredible Jenn Smira is

"Jenn Smira is the APEX predator of real estate - an absolute shark! There are not enough words to adequately describe how incredible Jenn Smira is, both as a real estate agent and as a person. I am long overdue in writing this review, having now worked with her on two separate, and highly stressful, real estate transactions. To put it simply, she is the best in the business. Most recently, I was tasked with selling my parents' home, and the situation was incredibly stressful. I called Jenn in a state of panic, and from that very first conversation, she was a calming, reassuring force. She expertly guided me through the entire process, from preparing the house to getting it on the market with lightning speed. Her strategic approach led to us selling for well above the asking price and within my desired timeframe. She turned a daunting experience into a seamless and successful one. This amazing outcome wasn't a surprise, as Jenn had already proven herself to be a miracle worker when my husband and I bought our first home. We came to her during a seller's market, feeling defeated after a terrible experience with another agent who gave us bad advice that led to multiple failed offers. The moment Jenn stepped in, the game changed. She provided great advice, navigated the competitive landscape with ease, and landed us in our dream home. I call her "the shark" because she is the absolute APEX of the real estate world. Her knowledge, tenacity, and negotiation skills are unmatched. Beyond her professional prowess, Jenn is honest, sincere, and has a unique ability to make you feel as though you are her only client. I would legit only work with Jenn Smira or someone on her team. If you are looking for a real estate agent, stop your search now. You've found the one."

Jennifer Smira and her team are absolutely fabulous

"Jennifer Smira and her team are absolutely fabulous. My dear, old friend was looking to sell 2 houses in the DC area, and I found the Smira team online, was impressed with their work and brand, and connected them with my friend. There ended up being some pretty legitimate housing/vacancy issues with the tenants in the properties, and Jennifer and her team handled the whole situation masterfully from A to Z with patience and professionalism. Highly Recommended!"

I can confidently say they are a great group of professionals and a pleasure to work with throughout the experience.

Jenn and her team have always made every step of this journey smooth and enjoyable.

"Absolutely thrilled to share our experience with Jenn Smira. From the moment we began our journey (back in 2014) to find our first home, she was nothing short of exceptional. Jenn took the time to understand our needs, preferences, and budget, making us feel supported and confident throughout the entire process. When it came time to sell our first home (2021), Jenn and her team went above and beyond. She and Lauren provided invaluable advice on staging and pricing, and the results were beautiful! Our home sold quickly and for a great price, thanks to their expertise. Jenn and Lauren also helped us find our next home, and once again, they delivered. They showed us a variety of options that matched our vision perfectly, and their knowledge of the market made all the difference. We couldn't be happier with our beautiful new home! Jenn and her team have always made every step of this journey smooth and enjoyable. If you're looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring realtor, look no further. We can't recommend her highly enough!"

Jenn is what we call the 'trainer for your house.

"Jenn is what we call the 'trainer for your house'. She is warm, kind, and knows the landscape. She starts small, giving you hope and encouragement for getting your belongings out and making the house look presentable. Then tough love as the time gets closer. She had tested the market and we were very happy with the offers we got on Day 1. From meeting to sale, it all happened in 2 months. Amazing."
— Shannon Polly
