We are very pleased with Grant's representation and the recent selling of our home, especially during these difficult times. As usual there were many obstacles but we were expertly advised and always kept in the loop. The team was very knowledgeable and professional at all times.
Thanks Winning Edge Team!!

I Hired Jim Bim and his Son Grant to sell our historic Estate. Before meeting Jim I was with a big name Howard County Broker that had the listing for 2 years and was unable to produce a Buyer. I then went with another agent who had the property for one year again without a buyer. After 3 years of trying to sell my property I was pretty discouraged and took the Lots off the market. Jim’s son Grant called me and I was skeptical of all agents at that point. Grant asked for a meeting and after speaking with him for a few minutes I agreed. After meeting with both Jim and Grant I felt they understood my position and the struggle I had gone through trying to develop and sell my Land. They knew the history of my property and I got the feeling that these guys were different. They had some amazing ideas on how to market the property and create the vision for a Buyer. Almost immediately after I signed a contract with them and they were able to sell for 7million

To say we were COMPLETELY satisfied with Grant Bimstefer and his father Jim of “Team Jim Bim” regarding the sale of our home, is a major understatement! After listing our home for about 90 days with Redfin last fall, we decided to take if off the market during the holidays and re-list in the spring. As spring approached, we received several requests from many realtors making big promises to get our house sold quickly. After reconsidering our original realtor and interviewing a couple more, I decided to schedule an appointment with Grant Bimstefer since, after meeting him a few days earlier, he peeked my curiosity as he touched a bit on the team’s unique sales approach; I felt it was worth hearing more about. I will start off by saying that Grant Bimstefer, though young in age and in his real estate career, was extremely thorough, outstandingly professional, and remarkably well versed in the subject of real estate. championed by his father Jim Bim

Jim and Grant were fantastic and a pleasure to work with to sell our home. Whether selling or buying a home, the process and hoops can be daunting, frustrating, and stressful but Jim, Grant, and their Family team are truly fantastic. They are communicative, knowledgeable, considerate, compassionate and go just 'above' the rest in all aspects of the process. From our initial meeting, to providing comps and marketable pricing, to negotiating a fair deal, and through handling a very complicated closing.
We had previously had the property under another company, Redfin, for 169 Days without any traction and after back on the market in Jim and Grant’s hands, we had a good offer in 3 weeks and closing within weeks. We were also in the unique situation of having to handle closing items (inspections, repairs, etc.) all remote just due to personal timing challenges on my end, but Jim and Grant personally handled all of those details and multiple trips in our absence to make it happen.
If Grant Bim had not persevered and continued to make me a believer, I would still be living in my old house. They contacted me when I was at my lowest point after 7 long months of trying to sell my house. Not only did he and his son, Grant sell my house within 17 days for the same price the previous realtor could not sell my house for. They also helped me settle into my new house in 30 days time. Jim and Grant are AMAZING. They know real estate. They know the business. I have nothing bad to say about Jim, Grant, and their office staff. From Jim and Grant, to Christina and Valerie, they are all WONDERFUL!!! It's truly a family affair!!! So, many thanks to them all for making a me a believer in Jim Grant Bim!!!
I recently had an opportunity to work with Grant and his team for the sale of my property in downtown Baltimore and could not have been more pleased with the experience! I entered the process with some apprehension given my previous experiences, but Grant’s kindness, professionalism, patience, and guidance provided a great relief. Young, eager, and responsive, he had the energy and focus I needed. Plus, I had the benefit of an experienced team supporting his work. The entire selling process felt seamless!
I could not have been more pleased with the process and the result. I would welcome another chance to collaborate with Grant and the team at Winning Edge again!
With sincere gratitude,
Brooke
Jim, Grant, Weston and the Winning Edge team are hands-down the agent to whom I refer my past clients, friends, and family in the Maryland area. They are market experts and their sincere interest in their clients' goals are what set them apart. highly recommended!
We had the pleasure of working with Grant Bim. He helped us purchase our beautiful home. It was a timely and smooth process. He was quite knowledgeable about the local area and very responsive to our needs. With the great connection he has with the all parties (mortgage broker, title company, seller's agent) it made it a wonderful experience especially purchasing this home from out of state.
Grant was my agent, and I had a house sitting on the market for half a year that was getting looks, but not selling. Grant stepped in, priced my house accordingly, did showings, and we had a buyer within about a month of him taking over. He even did some work himself to save me some money!
Helps my brother and I purchase our very first time. Was very professional, kind, and patient with us. We cannot thank you enough for all your hard work, you made this entire process so much easier than we ever expected it to be.
The Winning Edge Team guided me through my sales process from conception to final close. Grant Bim advised every step of the way. Grant provided analytical data to support his points backed by facts and not marketing messages. After being guided by Grant, the rest of the Winning Edge team, picked up the sales process and guided me in bringing my property to market. Advised by a pricing strategy, I selected the one most conforming to me. In addition, other components of the company also played a vital role from staging, marketing to closing, the Winning Edge kept me on track to successfully sale my home not once but twice within two weeks after the first buyer experienced a family death. On both occasions, my property sold within one day!
Yes, the Winning Edge family based team has a proven track record of successful sales and complete customer service from conception to post sales. I highly recommend their service, especially in tough real estate markets. Neil Carter
There is nothing more you can ask for. Grant and Jim Bim and his team gets things done
quickly and efficiently. I was a first time home buyer, and they never rushed me to
find a place and the patience paid off with the perfect starter home. They are able to
answer any question or will go out of their way to find it. They made time to show me
plenty of houses and continue to answer any questions even after settlement
The Bim family with Winning Edge Realty is my go-to resource for referring my friends and family who are moving to and from the area. As an agent in Chicagoland, I know what makes a good or bad experience. All to often agents either never follow up, or simply don't care about the clients' goals and aspirations. The Bims take a sincere interest in the goals of their clients and work tirelessly to make them a reality. That's why this family team is trusted with my own
Grant did a fantastic job selling my home. When moving out of state I needed someone who would look after things once I was packed and gone. Grant was in touch on a regular basis, keeping things on track. His contractors got the place looking amazing at a very reasonable cost. We got a great offer as soon as it went live. When the home inspector left the water running, thankfully Grant was on it and averted a disaster!
Grant Bim were invaluable in helping me prepare and sell my sister's house as part of her estate settlement. He arranged for contractors to clean up the property, sell furniture and other items, and promptly responded to my questions and concerns
from start to final sale. I wholeheartedly recommend Winning Edge Realty!
Grant really made us feel comfortable. They were very informative, caring with great communication. After no success a year ago to sell our house, (another realtor) Grant reached out to us on a regular basis. Once we made the decision to try again, we had them come and look at our property and we decided to give them a try. They made the process as seamless as they could. Had a list of several “preferred vendors and contractors”, including an amazing moving and storage company. They were honest with us, very professional and once we did a few things to help in the sale of the house, it was sold 2 - 3 days after going on the market. We HIGHLY recommend Winning Edge.
Grant and his company recently helped us to find a perfect tenant for our property, they did an outstanding job, very professional with lots of knowledge, lots of patience, we would like to recommend to our friends. We are very appreciative for their good job.
I cannot express enough how delighted I am with the exceptional services provided by Grant Bim of Winning Edge. Throughout the entire process of selling my home off-market, they displayed an exemplary level of professionalism, skill, and attention to detail that far surpassed my expectations.
From the moment I engaged their services, it was evident that Winning Edge possesses an in-depth understanding of the real estate market and a wealth of experience in the industry, especially in Baltimore and the Canton area.
I'll cut to the chase and let you know that we're very happy with the profit we made selling our home so you shouldn't worry about that. I want to share more about how we perceived the process and how Winning Edge worked with us:
Their years of expertise became evident in every aspect of the transaction, from strategically pricing my property to negotiating with potential buyers before we even had to list the home.

Your expertise in the real estate market is evident in every aspect of your work.

My experience was with Grant of the JimBim team, though we worked with several members of the JimBim Winning Edge team in the selling of our old house and the purchase of our new house. Throughout the process, Grant and the team were exceptional in terms of customer service, professionalism, and overall real estate acumen. Grant helped us focus on what was important in our house search, but also was patient as we waded through the house listings throughout Central Maryland. I found his realism in the real estate market to be quite helpful and he was able to find a buyer for us, and find the new house we are really enjoying now. Grant was also helpful in finding a creative financing solution with a local banker that was instrumental in making the sell/buy process effective. All-in-all, Grant and the JimBim Winning Edge team were exceptional. If we should choose to sell/buy real estate again, we will sign back up with them without hesitation.
I was beginning the search of purchasing my first home and completely new to the entire process. I reached out to Grant Bim from Winning Edge Real Estate and him and his team were amazing from the start and throughout the duration of the entire settlement process.
Grant was available at all hours of the day to answer any questions, offer feedback, or just talk about any next steps or possibilities. His communication was outstanding, and his suggestions were spot on as he handled business as if it were he himself going in on the deal with his own money. That is truly how much he cares about you and your success and decisions.
He knows the area extremely well and is very familiar with properties of all shapes and sizes and things to consider and look out for. The house purchasing experience is quite daunting especially for a first time home buyer, and Grant made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. Any doubt, confusions, or questions I had he was quick to answer,
