Happy Home Buyers

It's was a pleasure working with Stephen Mercer and HomeBuyer Brokerage during my challenging search for a home in the DC suburbs. Stephen is deeply knowledgeable and not only helped me find workable solutions but also brought his expertise to steer me away from places that wouldn't work. Having an exclusive buyers agent gave me peace of mind knowing that my agent was structurally on my side in a huge purchase transaction, and Stephen brought unshakeable integrity and remarkable attention to detail to my home buying process.

This was my first time buying a single family home, I was nervous and unsure of where to start. My fiancée had worked with Victoria and Marshall Henderson of HomeBuyer Brokerage before, when she was buying her condo, and she was adamant about working with them again. Now I understand why. They are simply amazing. Victoria and Marshall were super communicative, friendly, and our personal advocates at every turn. They took our desires in a home to heart and found property after property with great potential. Even when we visited a home that ended up lacking (in the basement or attic, never in the photos of course), they were the first ones to point out flaws, make suggestions for potential fixes (with a slew of contractor recommendations), and bring my fiancée and I back down to Earth about finding something better. My recommendation for HomeBuyer Brokerage cannot be high enough - as I said earlier, they are amazing. If you are looking for a property, do yourself a favor and get in touch with this team; they are specifically Buyer's Agents and give you their best (which is miles ahead of others) at finding exactly what you're looking for. Thanks Vic and Marshall!

Victoria was amazing! We moved across the country and had no idea what it would be like where we were moving to. She knew the area very well and was able to get us in touch with all the tools we needed to find safe and inviting neighborhoods that were close to our new job. She was also able to provide information about things like loud areas, resale value, potential flood risks, etc... that we wouldn't have even thought to consider without her help. She was very responsive and went above and beyond to not only help us find a home that fit what we were looking for, but to provide references for any work we would need done. She really took our young family under her wing and made us feel so at ease during this stressful process. 100% will recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in this area.

Victoria is wonderful to work with because she is honest, organized, and enjoyable to work with. She really knows what to look for in a home and guides you in the right direction while offering peaceful space to allow you to make the best decision for yourself. I absolutely recommend her to anyone who is moving from out of state because she is very knowledgeable about the various communities and willingly travels to view homes on video chat, if you cannot make it in person. She goes above and beyond to find out and inform you on all the details on the homes that interest you. Victoria is an excellent buyer's agent.

My husband and I recently purchased our first home using Victoria at homebuyer brokerage. We were inexperienced and she fantastic about guiding us through the process. She listened to what we needed a found us a great home. There was zero pressure and she helped everything go smoothly. I highly recommend.

From the first phone call to after closing on our home, Victoria was amazing to work with. My family was moving from across the country and she made the process as stress free as possible. She went above and beyond not only trying to find us the perfect home but helped set us up with contractors to get work done at the house after settlement. I would recommend Victoria and HomeBuyer Brokerage to everyone I know buying a home in the DC area.

Victoria is a pleasure to work with. She is very knowledgeable and accommodating.

I highly recommend HomeBuyer Brokderage's Victoria Henderson as an Exclusive Buyer's Agent. She helped explain the nuance of the current housing marked and made sure we were competitive buyer's while respecting our budget. She worked with us to stream or record walkthroughs since we were approx. 400 miles from the area, which frequently occurred on weekends. During in-person visits, she planned a full day for my wife and I to visit as many open houses as possible with minimal-to-no effort on our part. During the purchase process, she managed as much as possible remotely up until closing. Victoria is personable, experienced, and well-connected with others in the region to make the process as smooth as possible.

Victoria is wonderful! I recently closed on my first home purchase and am so thankful to have worked with her. Before connecting with Victoria I met dozens of agents through open houses; many were nice but seemed to have thorny conflicts of interest. By contrast, Victoria was open and transparent about the entire process and gave my wife and I the VIP experience! She embodies the perfect mix of all the qualities you would want in an agent: attentive, responsive, action-oriented, always accessible, and trustworthy. Check out her “Listen Up Home Buyers” podcast and you can tell early-on that you’ll be in the hands of a seasoned professional who also genuinely wants to help her buyers every step of the way. Each time I spoke with her it was like therapy; she will put you at ease about the process and you will feel completely supported. I recommend Victoria 1000%!

"I highly recommend Victoria as a real estate agent/broker. Over nearly two years, she assisted us in finding our dream home. Victoria's role as a buyer-only agent added a great touch, ensuring she always worked in our best interests. She is a dedicated professional who exhibited exceptional patience in showing us numerous properties. Her knowledge of the areas we explored was impressive, and she provided unwavering support throughout the entire process, right up to the closing. Victoria's expertise and commitment make her an invaluable asset in any real estate endeavor." Ricardo Leitao

Finding the perfect home can be stressful, but with HomeBuyer Brokerage, it was a breeze! Victoria Henderson navigated the entire process. She patiently answered all our questions, no matter how small. She made house hunting efficient and streamlined everything from tours to paperwork. Negotiations before closing saved us money and got us the home we wanted. We couldn't be happier with HomeBuyer Brokerage and our new home!

In May 2023, we met Victoria and Lisa through their online first-time homebuyers class. Victoria connected us with Lisa, who conducted an introductory meeting. After discussing our backgrounds and preferences, Lisa tailored a home search for us, arranging tours and providing detailed insights on each property, pointing out potential items of interest such as the age of windows, flooring materials, potential leaks, etc. Even while we were away visiting family, Lisa stayed responsive, touring homes on our behalf and facilitating video calls. Her flexibility and support eased our first-time home buying journey. Finally in December 2023, we closed on our new home. Lisa is amazing to work with and we highly recommend any one looking to buy a new home ask for her.

Working with Vic and Marshall was an extreme pleasure. She was so patient and honest. I am genuinely sad that our long journey came to an end; because, I FOUND MY FIRST HOUSE! You'll be so pleased to work with Vic. She is a ray of sunshine with a great sense of humor and immense knowledge. You'll never feel pressured, but always supported. I will recommend her for life. Bonus: she has a podcast with a wealth of information and quality guests! THANK YOU THANK YOU Victoria for your dedication

Stephen Mercer is an incredible buyer’s agent. His background aa a contractor makes him very knowledgeable about the condition of houses. He is really dedicated to finding the right home for his clients and showed us many properties until we found the right one. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Working with Victoria and Marshall at Homebuyer Brokerage was outstanding from start to finish. Things I really appreciated about the experience: 1. KNOWLEDGE: From construction to neighborhood vibe, they really did know it all. They pointed out important features of a home like French drains, broken window seals, neighborhood features, etc. It was like getting a mini inspection at each property we visited--very educational and helpful context for evaluating the properties. 2. HONESTY: It was very clear that their ultimate goal was to help me through the house hunting and buying process, so they took their role as experts and advisors seriously and always gave me an honest opinion--even if it was "walk away from this one." 3. PROFESSIONAL RELATIONSHIPS: We structured a unique offer that the seller's agent had never seen before. I'm absolutely convinced that it wouldn't have gone through if Victoria hadn't already established trust with the other agent. 4. PERSONALITY: On a personal note, they made what is normally a stressful, dreaded process FUN! Every afternoon we spent together felt like driving around with a (very expert) friend. I cannot recommend them enough and will use them for any future home purchases without hesitation!

We had a great experience with Victoria and HomeBuyer Brokerage. As both out of state and first time home buyers we are so happy to have had her on our side. She greatly reduced the stress and concerns of the home buying process. Again and again she went above and beyond our expectations of the services that a buyers agent would provide. Victoria is highly experienced in the real estate field, prompt, responsive and incredibly supportive. We highly recommend Victoria and HomeBuyer Brokerage to any would-be home buyers in the DMV area.

Stop googling for realtors right now and give these folks a call. I am a first time homeowner and home buyer. Victoria Henderson was so patient and wonderful throughout the whole process, and really made a point to teach me to keep an eye for things that would result in a positive experience in the short and long term. By this I mean, she wanted to help me of course find a place that I really liked when we were touring various properties, but also that would not be a headache or cause me financial problems as the years living in my home passed by. I felt empowered by her, and she let me take the lead on properties and throughout the home buying process, yet was ready to answer any questions or concerns that I brought up to her. Her professionalism, expertise and kindness are second to none, and I don't think I would be living in my OWN home without her support. I am so glad to be done with renting :) Bonus points for Victoria for being a huge ally to the LGBT+ community. As a transgender woman, I am always a bit wary of strangers at first (especially in our current political climate) for my own safety, but Victoria treated me with so much kindness and respect.

I have worked with Vic and Marshall for over 15 years. Excellent agents who look out for their clients like no one else. As a fellow realtor I would happily refer any buyer to them and their team!!

We had an awesome experience working with Victoria and HomeBuyer Brokerage! Victoria was detail-oriented, always available with helpful guidance, and able to customize our home-buying experience to perfectly fit our approach. She was also a lot of fun to work with! We'd highly recommend Victoria and HomeBuyer Brokerage.

Victoria and Marshall were amazing to work with – we couldn’t have asked for a better team of realtors in this tough market. Our family was planning a cross-country move, and we were extremely nervous about selling our previous home and finding a new one for our family of four in a short time span without completely knowing the area, and especially in such a competitive market. We had many a frantic phone call with Victoria expressing our concerns that we wouldn’t find anything. She listened and she assured us otherwise – they would help us find a great house. They expertly and seamlessly handled a whirlwind tour where my husband flew up and saw homes in person and I joined via video. Their organization, teamwork, professionalism and deep knowledge of the area was essential to writing a clean, competitive contract that won us an amazing home. We couldn’t be happier. Everyone has a realtor recommendation. But Victoria and Marshall are truly the team you want when you’re searching for a home in the DMV.

We bought our home and Cliff and his family were very nice and professional. He helped us to find the perfect home, he did an outstanding job. We can't thank him enough for his help.

Victoria and Marshall are an amazing team. We worked with them for over a year, until we found our dream home on our terms (yes! Even in this crazy market). we’re not first time homebuyers and local. This meant we took our time and they worked at our pace. We never ever felt rushed. They really bring so much knowledge from the get go- pointing out things in the construction, design and all Other aspects of the house not to mention the neighborhoods and really focusing in on what is important to you as a homebuyer. The time they invest in getting to know you is irreplaceable. As exclusive buyers agents, they truly advocate for you every step of the way. Victoria’s contract writing and negotiation skills are amazing, she knows what it takes to win without promising your first born lol. Last but not the least, they have a great team- inspector, lender, contractors everything is like a well Oiled machine. I highly recommend this team! You will be in great hands.

From the moment we met Victoria and Marshall, things just clicked. Their collective energy is so warm and welcoming, paired with their extensive knowledge of realty, the current market and Marshall’s past life as a home builder, made us feel so comfortable and confident they were going to help us find our very first dream home! My spouse and I are so thankful for the unwavering support and encouragement they provided during what can be a really stressful and emotional period at times. HomesBuyHenderson gets it done and we are SO happy!!

The Hendersons recently helped me find my perfect D.C. condo right in the heart of the city and I could not have asked for a better team to work with! The Hendersons truly went above and beyond for me. Buying a home is such a big decision especially as a first time home buyer like myself and I think you owe it to yourself to make sure you have a team you truly trust to guide you through the process. They made what can easily become a very stressful and overwhelming process so much easier than I could have imagined!

We have bought a house with Marshall and Victoria twice now. When we were looking again to buy, it wasn’t even a question that we would call them again. They’re knowledgeable, helpful, lovely to talk to during viewings, and make the stress of buying a house minimal. They have all their ducks in a row and scheduled and coordinated all inspections, appraisal, etc. for us. We bought our second home in the crazy market late 2021, we were able to buy a great home in a great location paying almost at asking price with contingencies because of the offer they brilliantly drafted. The sellers picked our offer over higher offers because overall our terms and schedule were better. I really can’t say enough good things about working with them and their team!

I have worked with the Henderson's more than once! They treat you like family and are there through the challenging times of home buying and the happy times! Through their guidance and support I was able to buy my first home for my daughter and I. We are truly blessed to have been able to work with such caring and trusting people. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

We used Marshall and Victoria to buy our first house. We were house hunting from another state but the Hendersons made it so easy. If a house was going on the market during the week, they made sure to preview it before we could travel on the weekends. They helped us every step of the way. I would 100% recommend them for assisting with the purchase of a home.

We worked with Victoria and Marshall to purchase a home in 2020. The experience was excellent and we had a lot of fun! Victoria and Marshall are very professional and friendly. They bring a lot of experience to your search and lots of insights/attention to things that you would not normally think about. That is a great value-add! They give you all the time and attention you need during the search, the offer/financing portion, settlement, and afterwards. Their goal is to find you your happy home. We love the house we found!

I would highly recommend Cliff Henderson as an agent if you’re trying to find a home. He provided constant support throughout the entire process which can be quite tiresome and overwhelming. Not with Cliff, It was a walk in the park. He planned everything for us so that buying a home was a fun process.

Victoria and Marshall are truly just wonderful people who are passionate about helping folks find their homes. We worked with them for months and months trying to figure out where we wanted to live in the DMV area. They were so patient and helpful. Always responsive and quick to jump on the right opportunity. We love our home so much and even after several years they are still in our lives.

I recently worked with Victoria to purchase my first home. She was excellent to work with. She was quick to respond to all of my questions and had an unlimited amount of patience as I drug her all over the DMV in search of a home. Through out the process she was always happy to offer guidance while listening to what I wanted. She genuinely enjoys the home buying process and guiding new buyers. It was great to work with someone who shared in my excitement to be on the path to home ownership. Her years of experience helped me to make a competitive offer which the seller accepted quickly. Thanks to her assistance I was able to find an amazing home, go under contract, and close within 2 months of starting my search! Also important in these times is that she followed all CDC recommend practices regarding reducing the spread of Covid. I'm excited to pass her information on to friends and family in the DMV that are looking to buy because I know they will have a fun experience with her.

Unmatched team! The home buying process can be a frantic and stressful time for an individual or family. Victoria and Marshall make you feel like family going above and beyond, making themselves available to ensure you are comfortable with every step of the process, that your stress levels are as low as they can be, and they don't pressure you into making decisions that you may not be ready to make. They are also able to answer every question or find a solution to every problem. I could not have imagined a more pleasurable experience!

Victoria and Marshall made home buying so easy for me as a first time buyer! They were incredibly responsive and enthusiastic about seeing every home I expressed interest in. We crafted competitive offers without sacrificing contingencies and, using their preferred lender and title attorney, closed on my home within a month. Victoria and Marshall were professional and I feel they had my best interests in mind throughout the home buying process. Highly recommend!!
