Shaye Zakotnik

Shaye truly makes dreams come true. She expertly guided me through the purchase of my first home, and I'm already looking forward to working with her again on the next one. I've also referred her to several friends, all of whom have been just as thrilled with their experiences.
She's charismatic, diligent, incredibly responsive, and a sharp negotiator. Shaye has a way of making the entire process feel approachable. She puts you at ease and is always happy to answer even the smallest questions with patience and clarity.
If you're looking for a realtor with impressive experience who also makes the journey enjoyable, I can't recommend Shaye highly enough.

Being new to the United States and having little experience navigating the housing market, I needed a patient, highly experienced, reliable realtor, who had my best interest at heart. I was introduced to Shaye and she went above and beyond to meet my family's needs. She had a diplomatic negotiation skill set, and was robust within any real estate market of Virginia, DC, and MD. She was so patient it was refreshing not to be rushed. Furthermore, when it came time to negotiate, my needs were prioritized. I was so happy with how Shaye handled my first home purchase.
I reached out to her again to purchase my second home in Maryland and facilitated that purchase as well! I was blown away by her service once again. She is absolutely brilliant at what she does. She got me my desired home and negotiated an unbeatable price. No matter where I purchase my next home I am certain I will go with Shaye. She is simply the best and loves what she does! She removed the anxiety out of the process.

Shaye made selling our DC condo easy and super speedy-- and at a price we wanted! We interviewed multiple realtors before meeting with Shaye and she was the only one who really listened to us. She staged our place beautifully and sold it after only 2 (!) private showings. Shaye gave us fabulous advice throughout and was always available and very responsive. There was no drama or surprises. We highly recommend Shaye!

Shaye was the perfect real estate agent, especially during a crazy market. We started from a blank slate, unsure of what area we wanted to land in, and she supported our vision beginning to end. She was patient and honest, which is why we trusted her from the beginning. She asked us the right questions to get us thinking about narrowing down our search. When we found the perfect house, Shaye took charge and moved so swiftly to ensure we would secure the home. We were the first party to look at the house, and Shaye worked her magic and got an offer together in a couple of hours. Her determination, grit, and professional guidance allowed us to get our dream home, and even stop the future open house from happening. It was ours, and we could not be more thankful to Shaye for her support and dedication to us.

Shaye was wonderful to work with in finding my home in DC from start to finish in all aspects. She showed me several places based on my list of wants and must-haves and really helped me narrow down exactly what I wanted. I am now living in a place that I'm quite happy with thanks to Shaye.

When I first met her I told her that I wasn't looking for anything immediately, but had a few months to find what I was looking for. She respected that, didn't push at all, but would send me places that matched my interest and check in occasionally. It was the perfect amount of involvement. As I came closer to buying, she spent more time with me looking at places. She was professional, patient, and has an upbeat energy that I really appreciate, which helped make looking for a new home fun. Her communication was prompt and clear, quite responsive.
