"I am beyond thankful to you for guiding us through this process and helping us get our forever home. Without a doubt, we would not have gotten this home without you. Thank you for being a constant professional and the ultimate closer that we needed."

"We wanted to thank you for your advice, patience and assistance in this whole stressful process. Your input has been invaluable, and we are very. "

"Kira is hands down the best person I've worked with. The only one I'd send friends to, and while she doesn't need a reference given all of her accomplishments, I am always happy to sing her praises."

"I have worked with Kira Epstein Begal on a number of real estate transactions over the past several years in Northwest D.C.. What I admire most about Kira is her patience, professionalism and attention to detail. She will give you her opinion on a property without being intrusive. Unlike some other real estate agents, Kira follows up on all issues, returns calls quickly, and finds mistakes that could be detrimental to a client. Her time is your time—despite the number of clients she has. I have never gone to a closing with Kira fearful that some problem is going to arise—at least not from our side. And she and Eric Tomlinson work as a very effective team. I could not have asked for better real estate agents. WFP may be known better for its sale of expensive houses, but the properties Kira, Eric and I worked on were coops and condos —and I am positive I got the same service and professionalism as other buyers. Thank you, Kira and Eric!"

"My husband and I whole-heartedly recommend Kira as a realtor, and we have referred many friends to her. Her knowledge of the local market is amazing and was the reason we were able to find (and buy!) exactly what we were looking for in a very competitive market (Logan/Dupont). She's also great to work with personally, and we love her client appreciation happy hours."

"I write to give Kira Epstein my highest recommendation as a buyer’s and a seller’s agent. In 2014, Kira helped my husband and me sell a condominium and purchase a house in Washington, DC. We were happy with Kira’s performance in every respect. In the sale of the condo, Kira’s guidance was spot-on. At our first meeting, she offered valuable advice about how to prepare the space for showing and she accurately predicted the price we would ultimately obtain for the condo. Throughout the sale process, she was always available to answer questions and always practical in her counsel. I had lived in the condo for 12 years and felt that Kira respected any sentimental connection I had to the place. At the same time, Kira was skillful in guiding me towards the best outcome for us both financially and with respect to practical considerations, such as timing our move-out to facilitate moving into our new house. In the purchase of our house, Kira also shined. She offered excellent up-front advice about how to prioritize our wish list and how to manage our expectations. When we found a house we loved, Kira guided us through the difficult path of negotiating the purchase. Above all, she always listened to us. We never felt that she was pushing us towards the purchase in order to benefit her or speed things up. She helped us procure our dream house in very short order — but if it had taken us nine months instead of one month to do so, I know she would have been just as patient through the entire process."

"Kira was incredible in helping me and my husband purchase our new home. She went to many houses with us, answered all of our questions, and helped make the (new and scary) process smooth and seamless. Kira has continued to answer our questions as they relate to our new home even three months after purchase. We couldn't ask for more! I highly recommend Kira if you are looking to purchase a home in the DC area."

"I can easily recommend Kira Epstein as the Realtor you want to consider! Kira represented us for both our recent sale and purchase, and she was a true professional at every turn. She is highly talented technologically and made excellent use of the search engines, social media, printed materials and real estate databases to quickly find us a variety of homes for sale and to get our house to market. Kira was honest about some minor changes that we needed to make in our townhouse to attract buyers quickly, and her advice worked like a charm. She managed to sell our townhouse for an excellent price, in a short amount of time, and negotiated great terms for a much-needed rent back. For our purchase Kira was a master with the contract negotiations, coming up with a deal that was good for us and made the seller happy as well. She guided us through the purchase process, including some of the unexpected bumps along the way. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day, usually within the hour! We never felt neglected or unimportant. There is nothing that escapes Kira’s attention when it comes to property for sale in this area. She knows the real estate and comps in the Metro DC area like the back of her hand."

"My wife and I highly recommend Kira Epstein. Kira has an extraordinary work ethic and was always available to talk to us when we had a question during our relocation to the DC metro region. She has a keen understanding of the local real estate market, and her contacts with other realtors, lending companies, and builders were invaluable in our successful move. She was an asset throughout the process and was an advocate on our behalf in the many transactions and discussions that one deals with in purchasing a home."

"Kira and I worked together on a mutual client's home purchase. Kira is a top realtor for multiple reasons: knowledge and negotiating skills, availability and somebody who just "gets it." She is easy to talk to and is very helpful when asked for something. If I was going to buy or sell in Maryland or DC, I would 100% hire Kira to represent me. She's the best! "

"Kira is an extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and efficient realtor. She helped my wife and me pull together everything we needed to buy our dream house when we had a very tight time frame, and walked us through every step of the way. She knows the market very well, ensuring that we got a fair price, and her good relationships with other realtors, home inspectors, title attorneys, etc., made the whole process as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Whether you're buying or selling, I can't recommend Kira highly enough. It's obviously a stressful process for anyone, but Kira's charm, experience, and deep knowledge of the housing market mean you're in very good hands. "

"Simple: I hired Kira to sell a house, and it sold fast for a good price. Then I hired Kira again to sell a house, and it sold fast for a good price. And now I've hired Kira again, and I know I'll get the same results. She's my agent."

"We were recommended to Kira from a friend of a friend, and it proved to be an outstanding choice. We had a specific set of criteria when looking for a house in the Maryland suburbs, and Kira was very helpful in accommodating our requirements. As first-time homebuyers, her overall knowledge of the area and industry, her contacts, relationships and insight helped us very quickly find a house that was a perfect fit. She made the overwhelming process of being a first time homebuyer much more manageable and easy to handle. She was always very responsive to our emails, calls and many questions throughout the process, which we truly appreciate. She was a pleasure to work with, and we would recommend her to anyone in the area."

"Kira's knowledge of D.C. real estate is impeccable. Her expertise and professionalism make her a very talented agent and an indispensable asset to anyone in the market to buy or sell property. While acting as my real estate agent, Kira was persistent, personable, available, and always happy to answer my questions. I couldn’t have done it without her, and I won’t do it without her in the future either. "

"Kira is very knowledgeable, hard-working and focused. She helped us buy a new house in Chevy Chase and sell our old one in Glover Park for more than the asking price in less than a week. Would definitely recommend Kira."

"Kira gets the job done—professionally, quickly, honestly. She is trustworthy and cares greatly for her clients. Best real estate agent in the city! "

"We bought our house with Kira this year. We are first-time home owners, and it was truly a pleasure working with her. She spent so much time patiently explaining (and reexplaining) each step of the process, which we really needed. She was very patient with us, even when we had to bring our toddler with us to see homes and was great at focusing us on what was on the market Kira was also very flexible about scheduling time to see houses and was always very punctual. Kira was great at helping us see the potential in our house and helping us figure out what renovations we wanted to do. We love our house and were so happy with working with Kira. Kira is a wonderful and honest agent, and I highly recommend her. There is no question we would use her again."

"Kira made home buying easy and not at all scary. She walked us through each step and helped us find a house we wanted immediately. She has great relationships with lenders, home inspectors, settlement companies and other real estate agents. She is knowledgeable, enthusiastic and completely reliable. I would hire her again in an instant and can provide a more detailed recommendation to anyone considering hiring her."

"Kira was a pleasure to work with and guided me through the process of first-time home buying with ease. She is clearly an expert in her field and knows the DC market very well. Kira was a great advocate for me during the bidding process, and I don't think I would have secured the sale without her! I highly recommend Kira and would not hesitate to use her again. **Fast forward 2 years later** I had the pleasure of working with Kira again. Not only did she help me buy my first condo, as mentioned above, but she was there for me again. This time she assisted in both the buying and selling process. Kira was great to work with—extremely professional and made what can be a complicated and stressful process actually simple and efficient. What really sets Kira apart from other agents is not only her professionalism, but her phenomenal knowledge of the DC market. You can't go wrong in choosing her to represent you in any real estate transaction. I will definitely work with her whenever I have to buy/sell again."

"Kira helped us sell our home in Logan neighborhood of Washington, DC. She had all the needed contacts such as handymen, painters, stagers, etc. that were pivotal in showing our home in the best way possible. It was through all that preparation, professional photography and floor plans being done prior to going on the market that helped expedite a quick sale. Kira was always available to answer our questions late into the night and worked tirelessly to seal the deal to get us the best price possible on our home. Probably the greatest testament to how we feel about Kira’s services is the fact from start to finish, the whole thing took only about 3-4 weeks between preparation to closing. We’ve worked with her on several other deals since then and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home in this highly competitive market."

"As a first-time homebuyer, I felt at times overwhelmed with the process. Kira really took the time to explain each step and helped me weigh my decisions so I purchased with confidence. More importantly, she was on top of every single detail of my purchase, whether getting the process moving along with my mortgage broker or reassuring a nervous seller. Thanks to Kira, my home-buying experience was a positive one, and I would not have been able to do it without her! I highly recommend Kira to anyone in the DC condo market."

"When it came time for my wife and me to buy our first house, we were basically clueless about the process and were apprehensive to sign up with any realtor for fear of being pressured into situations that were not good for us. Kira was recommended to us, and we decided to take a chance, are extremely lucky to have done so. Besides being very knowledgeable about the housing market and the home-buying process, there were two things that stood out the most to me about Kira. First and foremost, she is a very hard worker. It did not matter what time of day it was, Kira would be there to answer any question or solve any problem that we had. Second, Kira is very detail-oriented. There were absolutely no slip-ups from our side during the negotiation and final purchase. You might expect this from every realtor, but the seller’s realtor we were working with proved otherwise. Every slip-up can cost a day or two, which could ultimately affect the closing date. Kira made sure that everything stayed on track and was very good about getting answers from the people who were slacking. Both my wife and I would highly recommend Kira to any friend or family in need of a realtor."

"Kira is a detail-oriented agent who puts her clients' needs first. She and the other members of her team are reliable, responsive and extremely knowledgeable about the metropolitan DC real estate market. Kira's creativity and persuasiveness are demonstrated time after time as properties sell or rent rapidly under her supervision."

"Kira has a passion for her work. She always goes that extra step to make sure that she has covered all of her bases, explored all of the options, and is providing the best service she can. Kira is dependable and one thing you can be sure of when you work her is that she will always follow through. And if the unexpected does happens, Kira will find a way to make things right. In addition to the obvious joy and pride she takes in her work, Kira has that unquantifiable quality that makes her not only a pleasure to work with, but also a fun person to be around. I, without reservation, would and do recommend Kira to anyone who is looking to invest in real estate or buy a home in the D.C area. "

"My husband and I just bought our first home, thanks, largely, to the efforts of Kira Epstein. While our search for the perfect home was long, Kira made it a much easier endeavor for us, and we are thrilled with the end result. Throughout our long search, Kira never pressured us to settle on anything less than the perfect home for us. We had worked with other agents who tried to sell us every house that we looked at, but Kira was always very quick to point out both the strengths and weaknesses of each house for our particular needs. She pre-screened houses for us at times and only had us see the ones that she thought were strong contenders, and we always ended up agreeing with her reviews. Kira very quickly developed a good sense of what we were looking for, and at times it seemed like she had a better idea of it than we did. The house that we ended up buying was one that she saw on her own and thought was perfect for us. At first we weren't sure that we were interested in the location, but a few months later we remembered it and asked her to show it. As soon as we saw it, we knew immediately that it was the one."
