"He had excellent communication, and made suggestions to remodel and stage. This strategy worked beautifully and was cost effective. In a competitive market, he updated my condo, listed it, and sold within days!"

"Kaushik's network speaks volumes about him as he had already worked with our dream home's selling agent, which helped in the buying/closing process. All who have worked with Kaushik have only shared the best comments about his work ethic as well."

"He was wonderful to work with. Kaushik always responded promptly and was very knowledgeable. I felt safe working with him."

Excellent support, communication and engagement. Kaushik and team made the entire experience very smooth and painless.

We have had such a great experience with the Jenn Smira Team. We have been working with Kaushik Rath, who has been such a Godsend! He helped us buy our new home and honestly don't think the sellers would have chosen us if it had not been for Kaush. He had formed a great relationship with the seller and so even though we were not the highest bidder, or even the second, they ended up choosing us because they could trust that our agent was the real deal and could get the job done. Kaush also helped us sell our convo extremely quickly with an offer over our asking price. He is easy to communicate with and you never feel like you're doing this alone! I would highly recommend Kaush and his team!

Had a fantastic experience working with Kaush in purchasing a new home. Kaush is diligent, available, and honest - he doesn't beat around the bush which we appreciate. We literally would not have gotten our dream home without Kaush as our agent - the sellers indicated that they chose our offer (which was not the highest/best) because they trusted Kaush. Moreover, life circumstances caused us to have to sell our old home on short notice - and he helped us competitively price our unit and sell it within 1 day of listing!! He knows real estate inside and out, and is a professional through and through.

I consider myself a fair and honest appraiser of an individual’s work product. I try not to be critical, as there’s enough of that nowadays and I certainly don’t want to cost anyone his/her job if he/she has had a bad day, etc. However, I feel that fair assessments help others find professionals they can rely on—and assist employers in finding the right employees to build their businesses. Particularly when dealing with real estate transactions—which are by nature large and involving substantial amounts of money—you need people on your side who not only work hard but are intelligent, resourceful, and experienced. My wife and I have spent the last six months working closely with Kaush Rath. “Closely” is not truly accurate. Kaush became a member of our family. We were in touch with him regularly while searching for a home while living on the west coast. Finding the right place 3000 miles away is a difficult task, but having Kaush be our eyes and ears—and occasionally, brains—made the process navigable. I cannot say enough about Kaush. He was always there for us. Always. Whether it was running to a potential property to check it out (in a competitive environment) or answering our WhatsApp messages in the late evening (three hours later in the east!), he did whatever was necessary to get answers, solve problems with builders, or gather information that helped us make reasoned decisions. We found Kaush through our son’s in-laws, who used to Kaush to find their home. Then Kaush worked with us and our son and daughter-in-law as they looked for their first home, and then Kaush sold our townhouse in the DC area. All of these involved complex transactions and nuanced negotiations that are sometimes required in real estate transactions. Thus, when I “review” Kaush, I do so having had multiple transactions with him. I recommend Kaush and his team without a scintilla of hesitation. Kaush is a professional who not only understands real estate markets but also negotiation and customer service. There have only been a handful of individuals I’ve dealt with in my 35 years in business who I consider to be A+ in terms of them being at the top of their professions. Kaush is on that short list. If you have a real estate need in any of the regions Kaush serves, retain him. It’ll be one of the best, and most important, decisions you’ll make.

My husband and I just bought a condo and had the pleasure of working with Kaush. Can I just say Kaush was amazing to work with and made our first time buying as easy as possible. Kaush always had an answer for us for all of our questions and he is also so personable and was very honest about everything. Thanks again for everything Kaush, looking forward to working with you again!

The experience in the sale of my property, with Kaush Rath, in particular, and the entire Jenn Smira Team, in general, was excellent. They guided me through the process seamlessly, and with expert advice and assistance all the way from listing to sale.

It's always a pleasure to work with Kaush Rath and the Jenn Smira Team at Compass. Kaush provides the best advice and support through both the buying and selling process. Highly recommend working with him!
