She’s more than a realtor — she’s like a therapist or an angel.

I would like to express my immense gratitude for the exceptional work that Isabella Pinto did in helping us during our recent move. From the start, when I shared my frustrations about my long commute with friends, two of them — from different circles who don’t even know each other — gave me her contact. That immediately made me appreciate her work. From our very first conversation, I was impressed by her professionalism. Isabella is quick to respond, punctual, responsible, and, above all, dedicated to advocating for her clients’ best interests. She was always attentive to our needs and incredibly patient in explaining processes that were new to me. We were deciding whether to sell our house, which had everything we needed but was far, or buy a place in the city. Isabella raised many relevant points that were crucial in our decision, never pushing us toward the option that would benefit her most. She carefully outlined the pros and cons, and it was clear that she was on our side, no matter what we chose. That’s why I felt so comfortable working with her — there was never any pressure. She truly put herself in our shoes and fought for what we wanted until the very end. I couldn’t be happier with our choice of realtor. I highly, highly recommend Isabella! She’s more than a realtor — she’s like a therapist or an angel. To deal with me, she’s probably both, haha! Last, but not least, I want to give my heartfelt thanks to the INCREDIBLE TEAM that worked on our process. They were always ready to assist, and every referral and contact was spot on. You guys have my referrals and recommendations for all my friends and family. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

Isabella expertly guided us and offered help and support every step of the way.

I have not stopped gushing to anyone who will listen about our wonderful experience working with Isabella Pinto for the sale of our condo and purchase of our first house. We needed to sell and buy in DC while living in California in the spring of 2022, so the market was very tough but Isabella expertly guided us and offered help and support every step of the way. She arranged very sleek and modern staging services, which she oversaw to make sure the style was just right, she arranged a skilled inspector to do walk through inspections for us and FaceTimed throughout, she connected us with contractors and painters and landscapers to achieve all of our goals even after we closed. She also has an excellent eye for design so she could help my husband see the vision for the house we purchased. Isabella is also just a very good, kind person who responds very quickly and wants to do everything she can to help you get the home of your dreams!

My home buying process went smoothly thanks to Isabella’s commitment and expertise.

Isabella is an excellent real estate agent of the Jenn Smira Team at Compass, very professional and highly knowledgeable. She helped me buy a townhouse in DC in July 2022. I was living abroad at the time, with little knowledge of the DC area real estate market. Isabella was extremely helpful in explaining the market to me, showing me the different DC neighborhoods, and answering all my questions and concerns. Isabella is also very attentive to the needs of her clients. Whenever I was with her, I had her full attention, and she was not distracted by other customers. I also appreciated that she always found a way to organize her schedule to show me houses while visiting DC. During home visits, she was very helpful, pointing out important details of the house and neighborhood to pay attention to. During the negotiation and closing, she was an excellent advocate for my needs, making sure my needs and requests were all met. Overall, my home buying process went smoothly thanks to Isabella's commitment and expertise. I very strongly recommend her.

She met every goal on my very long list of demands.

I bought my condo with Isabella in November 2022 and having her guiding me through this process was one of the best decisions I made. Isabella has a very good understanding of the housing market, and somehow she met every goal on my very long list of demands. As a foreigner in DC, she was able to explain the implications of every single choice considering the marketing rules and my lifestyle. It took me a couple of months to find the perfect place, and Isabella never hesitated to walk me through properties even when they were just educative. I highly recommend her with no reservations.

In one month we found a property, submitted the proposal and signed the contract

We got in touch with Jenn’s team through Zillow. Isabella worked with us in finding a property that could meet our expectations. She helped us refine our search and identify properties. She was super fast in arranging visits to potential properties (a crucial matter in DC), and she was amazing in getting in touch with sellers’ agents, making strategies and writing proposals. She was super flexible and accommodating to our long working hours, she even picked up and drove us back to our jobs so many times. Isabella is so good at her job that in one month we found a property, submitted the proposal and signed the contract. This is very rare in DC! We had been looking for properties before but after six months without finding anything we gave up. Isabella was then the key factor for us to be successful this time! We couldn’t have made it without her. Isabella was attentive to all details, even after signing the contract, when we had to find companies to do some jobs at the property, and getting us free passes to the gym next to the building. We strongly recommend her and all Jenn’s team. They provided an excellent service throughout all the process of finding and buying a property

She was very patient with me and never put any pressure, which I really appreciated

As a first-time home buyer, I had an excellent experience with Isabella and I highly recommend her work. From the beginning, she explained the market trends, selected the property according to my profile and was always available to show me the apartments. She also guided me through the whole acquisition process including the search, negotiation and closure. I really appreciated her attentiveness and the fact that she was readily available to answer to all my questions and doubts quickly. Prior to the acquisition, she directed me to the right professionals specialized in different aspects. Personally, I think that Isabella is amazing, full of positive energy and good vibes! Working with her was a pleasure. She was very patient with me and never put any pressure, which I really appreciated. Together, we found the perfect apartment and I can guarantee you that you’re in good hands with Isabella!

She went above and beyond to show us only and exactly what we intended to buy.

Compass is the name of the firm that backs Isabella and her associates, they are honestly the BEST IN BUSINESS. You should look no further if you are still searching for a Real Estate professional. Compass has amazing office personnel, the team led by Jenn Smira is pure bliss. We want to thank Isabella, Mark, Danielle and Jenn for for the wonderful experience we were provided.
