His expertise on the local market and his understanding of what it takes to make a successful bid in such a competitive place were invaluable.

Altaf always thought of us as family and guided us through including educating us throughout the process as well as coming back with feedback after every single visit. He was thorough in his visits and ensured that we got what we needed and what would make sense for us. His recommendations were of great value to us.

"Finding our first home in Virginia was an incredible experience, and it wouldn't have been possible without our phenomenal realtor, Altaf. He wasn't just someone showing us houses; he was more like a big brother, looking out for our best interests every step of the way. From the very beginning, Altaf went above and beyond. His knowledge of the DMV area housing market was invaluable, especially for first-time homeowners like us. He patiently explained every detail, offered insightful advice on things we weren't familiar with, and always made sure we felt comfortable and informed throughout the process. Altaf didn't just find us a house; he found us a home. His attentiveness to every detail, from the initial search to the final closing, was truly impressive. He cared as much about our needs and concerns as we did, making sure everything went smoothly. If you're looking for a realtor who will treat you like family and guide you through the homebuying journey with expertise and compassion, look no further than Altaf. We can't thank him enough for making our dream of homeownership a reality."

He also has contacts for great folks (at reasonable prices) to do some landscaping, painting, and move-out clean. Altaf was also very responsive to our preferences and provided helpful options and perspectives as we worked through our approach. We felt he had a very solid view of the market in our location as well as throughout the area which helped position our house for a quick and successful sale. Altaf made the whole thing very easy."

Altaf truly cares about the people he is working with and is deeply invested in getting them the best possible home for their needs, prioritizing that far beyond any desire he has to get a house bought or sold. My partner and I frequently remarked that we could not have asked for a better agent to work with. I cannot recommend him highly enough; he is one of the best agents in the DMV area. I will be recommending him to everyone I know in this region, and should we wish to buy or sell again, there is no one else we would want to work with."

Highly recommended."

"Altaf Mohamed is a super star in the real estate business! He helped us sell our mother's house this year (2023) and made the whole transaction from start to finish a very comfortable process. The word that best describes him is PATIENT. We are two sisters and our spouses who had a shared goal in mind, but who have different personalities which Altaf was able to work with in a very professional and competent manner. We recommend him without reservation, and feel that he is an outstanding choice to help buy or sell a property. "

I highly recommend Altaf for anyone who wants an excellent realtor who brings extensive experience and tireless follow-up to get to a successful result."

★★★★★
"We just bought a new home! Many, many, thanks to Altaf. In Altaf, we found not only a trustworthy realtor, but also a very good friend. He was the one who helped us to buy our first home 12 years ago, helped us sell the same home 3 years ago when we relocated overseas, and now helped us to buy a new one. Altaf is very knowledgeable, resourceful, and attentive to his clients' needs. A transaction as complex as home buying has been a smooth experience for us because of Altaf, who helped us navigate through the complexities. In fact, we bought our new home remotely, only with a virtual tour because we trusted Altaf, who did not disappoint us. We are very happy with our new home. We have already recommended several friends and colleagues and we still highly recommend Altaf to anyone who plans to buy or sell a home!"

"My experience buying my First home with Altaf as my buyers agent was both surprising and exceptional. Surprising because I was expecting a much more complicated and arduous process and exceptional in every other aspect, thanks to Altaf! Altaf was extremely generous with his time and always made sure that he was available as needed. He was extremely responsive in his communication, both by email and phone. I trusted that his advice was unbiased and at no time did I feel pressured to buy a home that I would not be comfortable in. In simple terms, he explained all relevant aspects of the home-buying process, answering all questions patiently. Altaf clearly respects his clients and values their opinions and wishes. I wouldn't hesitate to work with in the future or to recommend him to friends and colleagues. Something which I have already done multiple times! It was an absolute pleasure working with Altaf!"

★★★★★
"Altaf listed my property and put in a lot of time. He supervised a facelift of the property, met the contractors, appliance delivery team, and even paid for cleaning and lights out of his own pocket when I was unavailable to expedite the process. He has a list of great contacts as well to get work done quickly. He treated his clients like family and that level of trust and expertise in this market is hard to come by. I highly recommend him and will be using him again for another property I have. Twenty years of experience is worth it. I got extra value out of my property making all the recommended upgrades . It led to a net gain of $60,000 for me on an investment property worth less than 400k. I have not had any agent work harder than he did particularly for a lower end property. He has old school work ethics. He is excellent for demanding high net worth clients like me."

★★★★★
"In the middle of a horrible buyer's market, Altaf went above and beyond to get us into a wonderful home. He is professional, reliable, patient, and fun to work with and helped to guide us through what could easily have been a very painful process! Altaf handled the inevitable bumps along the way with ease, and we are happy to recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

★★★★★
"Altaf is the gold standard for professionalism, service, and attention to detail. He pointed out critical observations that helped inform our decision making when selecting the perfect house for us. More than this he advocated on our behalf even if it meant working longer hours. Additionally and most importantly he was patient and understanding. We would recommend all my friends, family, and colleagues to at least give Altaf a call to understand what I mean by him being the "gold standard" when deciding on a partner to work with!"

★★★★★
"We recommend Altaf 100%! We were first-time homebuyers in an incredibly competitive and fast-paced market and Altaf guided us through with patience and knowledge. He was always available to answer any questions we had, to walk us through what we should expect, and to recommend us to different vendors/contractors once we made an offer."

★★★★★
"We absolutely loved working with Altaf to purchase our first home. From start to finish, Altaf was organized, encouraging, honest, and a perfect sounding board for our concerns. He advocated for our needs and provided valuable guidance and feedback throughout the process. He translated the many complexities of this process into concepts we could easily understand, and empowered us to make the best decisions for our family. Furthermore, we never felt pressured, and Altaf made the process feel personal and special for us rather than transactional. We will be referring all of our friends in search of a home to Altaf for his wisdom, professionalism, and bringing his great sense of humor and joy into our home-buying process. Thank you, Altaf!"

"We can’t speak highly enough of Altaf, as our real estate agent and highly recommend him! His advice and support through the entire buying process was invaluable!! As first-time buyers, we were very nervous, but Altaf guided us through the entire process with ease. Altaf is so knowledgeable, patient, honest, and really cares. He was always available to answer our million questions, anytime! We could not have done it without him.

"Altaf Mohamed is a FANTASTIC real estate agent! We had a very challenging set of requirements to find the ideal home for my mother, and we tried using Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, and other sites with complex alert configurations for almost a year. Once we asked Altaf for help, he instantly suggested numerous options we had never seen, gave us so much excellent advice, provided valuable analysis and insights, and found us a home that met every single requirement within a few weeks. We thought we were sophisticated buyers, but we could never have done this without Altaf. He was deeply knowledgeable, highly responsive, extremely professional, very kind and attentive to my mother, and an extraordinary advocate and negotiator for us. He took such good care of us, and made us feel as if we were the most important clients in his life, despite the fact that we knew he was closing on numerous homes every week, all of which were probably far more valuable than ours. I cannot recommend Altaf highly enough! He is a model for what every agent should aspire to be! I encourage anyone buying or selling a property to give him a call and have a chat."

★★★★★
"We could not have trusted anyone else other than Altaf in our home buying process. He advocated for us in an excellent way. He was always present and on time during all the appointments on site, and helped us through each step of the way. He even made understanding real estate jargons easy to understand. Very friendly, very easy to work with, and at the same time very knowledgeable in his expertise. Highly recommend."

★★★★★
"Altaf was always polite, patient, available and constantly proving his experience and skill at his profession. He's an excellent example to hold up to other realtors as the embodiment of how buyer and seller advocacy should be done. His personality, humor and reliability made a stressful process more manageable and we couldn't be more pleased with our results. I highly recommend his expertise and am pleased to relate how much easier the whole process was as a result."

★★★★★
"Altaf is an incredible real estate agent and has been wonderful to work with over the years. He helped us buy our first home back in 2004 and then again most recently when we upgraded to a single family home. We highly recommend using Altaf for your real estate needs. He has a proven track record and has become a great friend in the process."

★★★★★
"We worked with Altaf to buy a new investment property. I have worked with about half-a-dozen realtors over the years for various properties. Altaf is far the best I've worked with and highly recommend him! Even though we were in a "sellers" market (I was the buyer), Altaf did not create an unnecessary fear or pressure that I've seen with other realtors. He was matter-of-fact about everything and didn't let emotions (ours or his) get in the way. In retrospect this was a great advantage. He is very knowledgeable about the area and brings that to the table. He was able to help decide on the right neighborhood, talk about pros and cons and bring a more global perspective to us. We were all over the map (location, price, etc...) and he was able to be flexible and help guide us. Altaf is also very responsive. There is no "I'll get back to you in a few days" type of thing. He responds to his messages almost immediately and takes the necessary actions right away. At one point my wife was firing six, seven, eight properties at a time to him that she was interested in. Within short order he had arranged for viewings and mapped it so that the drive was optimal for us rather than zigzagging across the city. Last thing is he has a lot of contacts and connections that are excellent. He provided a suggestion for an insurance who cut my insurance costs in half, we used a title company that was far superior to the one that I used for closing on my other home, the inspection company he recommended was top-notch. Overall, I can't think of anything more we would want in an agent - knows the market, super responsive, lots of contacts and just a good guy all around."

"Altaf Mohamed enabled us to buy a single-family detached home in Potomac and to sell a co-op apartment The Promenade in Bethesda. With his close attention and guidance, we sold the apartment at a good price and bought the home at a good price, both with a minimum of stress (for us -- if there was stress, Altaf absorbed without complaint). Altaf clearly knows how to screen offerings so as to home-in on the optimum home from the many , saving us a lot of time, shoe-leather, and angst. And he gave us great guidance in selling the co-op apartment, for example guiding our decisions on how much to spend on what in order to make the place attractive to buyers. He listened patiently to our ideas, took them into account, and guided us gently when we needed it. Altaf responded promptly, honestly, and effectively to all our queries and to all the communications from other , sellers, and buyers involved in our buying the house and selling the apartment. Thanks to Altaf and for arranging the home warranty policy. We did not know we needed it, but when the home’s elderly HVAC system failed only a few weeks after we moved in, the home warranty saved us a substantial bundle. We commend Altaf Mohamed to anyone buying or selling a primary residence or making decisions about how, when, where to invest in rental property or even making decisions about remodeling. We certainly will be seeking him out again whenever we have any real estate-related decisions to make or actions to take."

"Altaf is fantastic! If you are looking to purchase a home (especially as a first time buyer), we would highly recommend working with him! Searching for the right home: Altaf takes the time to really understand what you are looking for, and he helps buyers prioritize the important home elements. Not only is he patient and thoughtful, but also incredibly knowledgeable. In our search, Altaf would draw attention to different aspects of homes, allowing us to make more informed decisions when evaluating our options. Purchasing process: Altaf was incredible! From putting in an offer to closing day, Altaf guided us every step along the way, with constant communication and professionalism. The closing process can be stressful and confusing at times, but Altaf kept us on a timeline, ensuring we submitted every bit of information on time and to the right party. We are very grateful for Altaf's services and would recommend him again!"

"My husband and I could not be more thrilled our experience with Altaf. He was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and flexible. To out of our previous residence on time, we only had a several week window following pre-approval, to see homes for the first time and get under contract. Altaf's pleasant personality and attitude made the experience as a first time homebuyer absolutely incredible. Any tiny snag, he guided us through calmly. He smoothly handled all of the digital communication and Esigning (especially important during Covid). His team of inspectors and relationships with our financial institution made the process that much easier. We could not recommend Altaf any more highly to folks looking in the DMV!"

★★★★★
"Altaf is an absolutely incredible agent. He is that rare gem of professionals who is passionate, knowledgeable, hard-working, smart, selfless, and a pleasure to talk to. All of these qualities proved essential with our house sale. After having worked with several other in the past, and comparing several for our current home sale, we went with Altaf. He had a thorough knowledge of the market trends on our street and had already spoken to that had sold houses on our street in the past few months. He knew our house was worth more than what other had estimated, which resulted in us making more money at the end of the process. Our house went up for sale right before the City shut down due to COVID and all open houses were prohibited. During those first few unprecedented weeks, all potential buyers in the market stayed home. Altaf spent countless hours and late nights talking us through various options, strategies, and scenarios. Our situation was complicated our need to sell the home within a limited time frame to be able to have the money to complete the purchase of another home we had already contracted for. Altaf approached every conversation cool, collected, and with a solid game-plan. Altaf ultimately sold our home for the price we wanted - and much higher than what other thought it could go for - in the middle of a pandemic. In short, I would say that you never know what type of complications will arise during a transaction. But when trouble arises, you want Altaf to be the one representing you."

"We worked with Altaf on our first home that we recently bought. Working with Altaf was great because he guided through the process including but not limited to having a detailed and lengthy knowledge session to walk us through the home buying process and answer all our questions and reservations about the process. Altaf was extremely patient through the process in showing us homes, constantly answering innumerable annoying questions, analyzing the pros and cons of each home that we toured along with us, and finally helping us find the perfect home and negotiate a good deal for us. If you are in the market to buy a home or sell one, I would highly recommend Altaf because it is great to be able to work with someone that understands you and someone who you can always turn to for advice."

Being first time homeowners, we were looking for a realtor patient enough to give us a thorough overview of the processes. Altaf did not disappoint.

★★★★★
"I enthusiastically recommend that potential home buyers or sellers strongly consider working with Altaf Mohamed! When we were looking for a home, Altaf was in constant communication, highly responsive, always friendly, smart, and a gentleman. It astonished us how Altaf would always get us in to see any home we asked about, within hours. Altaf always made us feel as if he was exclusively dedicated to us and our needs. Even more, he was wonderful with our young children, keeping them entertained while we viewed the homes. He was also really thoughtful. For example, when it was raining outside, he would arrive early at the home we were viewing to welcome us in through the dry garage. Altaf advised us with deep experience, honesty and our best interests clearly in mind – even when it reduced his commission but saved us money. When we finally found the house we loved, Altaf was amazing in the intensely competitive drama of in-person, multi-offer bidding and negotiations. Altaf won us our bid for our dream home - at a lower price than others were offering - because of the great respect that the sellers and their Realtor had for Altaf’s integrity in all dealings. Altaf had become such an integral part of our life and our family for so many months during the home search that our children were upset to learn they wouldn’t continue to see Altaf on a routine basis. This recommendation is the smallest token of our deep gratitude for all that Altaf has done for us."

In the case of my property, Altaf took great care in preparing the property for sale, holding open houses and using all available and social media avenues to maximize awareness. The property sold very quickly and for the asking price. He has been my agent of record and I have referred him to many clients who have experienced the same results as me.

"I was a first-time home buyer and Altaf walked through every step of the process with me. He helped me identify the homes that best fit what I was looking for and thoroughly reviewed every document I had to sign so I had an understanding of everything that was happening. If you're looking for someone trustworthy to buy a home with or sell your home, Altaf is the best choice!"

"My experience with Altaf had been extremely positive. His knowledge of real-estate market, area (location), and all the ins and outs of buying/selling were incredible. His responsiveness through emails, text messages, and phone calls were very impressive and he keeps his clients needs as his priority. Another incredible thing about him is thoroughness in paperwork and follow ups. I would recommend him for any and all real-estate needs for anyone."

"We highly recommend Altaf as he patiently and diligently helped us search our home, which almost took us 1.5years. He was honest with his opinion on every house we saw. He helped us see the details of the house. He was always available and was prompt with all his replies. He helped us draft an offer and the contract while providing valuable insight. We are truly thankful for all his hard work and treating us as a family!"

"Altaf is a highly professional, understanding, reliable, and trustworthy realtor. I met him in 2009 when I was looking to buy a house. He patiently guided me through out the entire process and helped me buy a house that meets my needs. He is always willing and happy to help even if I am not in the market. Altaf also took care of the entire process of selling my house in 2019, when I was not in the country. In Altaf, I found not only an excellent realtor but also a very reliable and trusted source of advice. I strongly recommend Altaf to anyone who is looking for a realtor."

"Altaf is simply the absolute VERY best!! As a first-time home buyer I was notably picky, indecisive, and also had no idea how the whole process worked. However, Altaf’s steady hand, patience, thoughtful guidance, extensive experience, and depth of knowledge were instrumental in ensuring that it was an overall phenomenal experience. His creativity, innovation, and dedication ensured our offer was the strongest in a highly competitive market as we had to compete with multiple offers. In the end, I was able to purchase my dream condo entirely because Altaf went above and beyond to make the seemingly impossible, possible! He’s the very best of the best and I firmly believe Altaf is absolutely the one you want your side working with you whether you are a home buyer or seller!"

He is professional, punctual and always available for you. He goes above and beyond to meet his clients' needs. I highly recommend Altaf for your real estate needs. I will continue to work with him in future."

"I cannot begin to explain how amazing Altaf was throughout the home buying process. As first-time home buyers my wife and I had done a ton of research about the process and thought we knew what we needed to know. However, Altaf walked us through the entire process from start to finish and answered any and all questions we had (which were a lot). He was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, proactive, calming, gave great advice and recommendations, and was not overbearing or pushy in any part of the process (you can add-in any other synonyms for amazing and they absolutely apply). We put in a few offers and ended up going with a short sale that had so many moving parts it was crazy! Altaf was on top of everything and helped work with us, the selling agent, the seller, the seller's bank, everything up until 30 minutes before our closing to make sure all the agreements, amendments, changes, documents, everything was in place and done to put us at ease. What was not the standard first-time home buyer experience was relatively smooth and he handled all the little bumps and snags along the way. And his team or trusted contacts (title companies, lenders, home inspectors, , etc.) are all amazing and were critical to our purchase. I would advise anyone who is looking to buy a home to go with Altaf! He is absolutely amazing and keeps your best interests in mind and is truly impartial. He will give you his professional thoughts and opinions only after you've voiced your concerns and doesn't try to push you into a purchase that you are not 100% comfortable with. He also has an amazing way of calming your nerves and walking you through each step. Not to mention his amazing stories and anecdotes! Altaf is a genuinely great person who cares about you, your family, and your home. He is engaging and accommodating and continues to check-in on our minor renovations after our purchase and offers us tips and tricks for the best resale value down the road. We may have just purchased our first home, but I'm already excited and looking forward to buying our second home with him as soon as possible (but maybe not for 5 to 7 years)!"

"This letter is to express our appreciation to Mr. Altaf Mohamed for the excellent services we received from him for the purchase of a second home in Potomac Maryland, in May 2020, and the sale of our son’s coop apartment in Bethesda in January 2021, during the CoVid Pandemic. We have worked with several real estate and for purchase and sale of several properties over the last four decades and can say with confidence that Altaf is far the best agent we have ever used. Altaf is a very helpful and supportive real estate agent. He is patient, professional and courteous. He listened to all our queries and at no times pressured us to make our decisions. Altaf carried out research to assess the fair market value of the Coop apartment, listened to our questions attentively and advised us not only to prepare the apartment for sale but also not to sell when we had a low offer. He negotiated effectively on our behalf. It was very clear to me that Altaf had our interest in mind at all times. He certainly was respectful of our time and concerns about our anxiety during the pandemic. I was so pleased with Altaf that I recommended him to a colleague and friend from Howard university, who was interviewing two real estate for the sale of her property in Washington DC and was ready to sign a contract. Upon my strong recommendation, my friend interviewed Altaf and was so pleased with his responses to her queries and information on Realty that she her property with Altaf."

"We relocated from New York to Bethesda with almost no connections and no knowledge of the area…and in the middle of the pandemic. Altaf showed us the town and helped us find the right spot. Altaf is a very kind, patient, and knowledgeable partner. He worked with us to find a builder, and supported us throughout the process (including helping us find a rental while our new home was being built). We couldn’t have done it without his help!!"

"When I was ready to buy my first house in 2004 and was looking for a reputable real estate agent who could also help me understand the buying process, a neighbor recommended Altaf Mohamed. I knew immediately that he was the right choice, and he proved to be a very caring person who really new how to listen and help me understand the process every step of the way, I've often told family and friends that when I decided to sell my house, I would contact Altaf again since he was such a pleasure to work with, and when the time did come to sell, I contacted him as I'd planned. I had my own idea of what my house might be able to sell for and was surprised and at first a little skeptical when Altaf suggested a price that was almost double if I made some improvements. He suggested the Compass Concierge program and we made a budget for the renovations that would likely bring the sales price that he gave me, and I went forward with the renovations. They were done very quickly and efficiently and also with a lot of care, and we put my newly renovated house on the market. Four days after it was listed, we had multiple offers and I selected a buyer. During the time between writing the contract to sell and the closing, there were several small bumps in the road as might be expected in any real estate deal, but none of these had anything to do with Altaf or Compass and he resolved them all with a good sense of humor and made sure I understood that everything was always on track. In the end, my house sold for the exact amount he promised we could get - which was way beyond my wildest dreams going in - and I was and am ecstatic with the end result. It is my pleasure to recommend Altaf Mohamed to anyone seeking a Realtor who is not only extremely qualified but a great listener and a caring person as well."

"We are first-time home buyers, now homeowners, thanks to one and only Altaf. He is one of a kind because of his unique detail-oriented style of work, prompt responsiveness, and a sorcerer at finding the perfect house and observing all the key elements in a house for his buyer's wants. He can hone in on the most meticulous of details in the property and aligns with what the buyer is looking for and/or should avoid. We have seen 110 houses with him before finding our perfect home, which exemplifies his patience, perseverance, and loyalty. Needless to say, we wouldn't have been able to find this rare gem without him behind us. Intrinsically a great human being and friend; Thank you, Altaf - Am "

"Altaf has been beyond amazing. We were first time home buyers in an extremely competitive market (thanks to COVID) and 6 months pregnant when we first started home shopping with him with plans to complete a purchase before the baby. With all this, my work schedule was not very flexible but despite everything, Altaf managed to coordinate all house visits and remain organized and patient with us. In my third trimester, when I couldn’t commute a lot, he even went to house visits alone and FaceTimed with us letting us know if the house matched our style. And lo and behold, we put in an offer for our dream house a week before my due date and closed within 3 weeks! During these 3 weeks, me and my husband both were MIA but Altaf made sure all formalities with the seller were complete and even helped us negotiate a deal after inspection. Overall, wonderful experience and we would recommend him 110%. Altaf, we will be coming back to you in 7 years, be ready! "

Very patient, accessible, organized, thoughtful, honest, resourceful and someone with high integrity. He always tried his best to look after our interests and has never made us feel under any pressure to make a hasty decision. We highly recommend him to serve as your Agent. He truly is an expert! "

"This is to inform you that our property in Bethesda is now rented. We do appreciate your willingness to meet with us and your time. You are one of the rare real estate agents who pay attention to details; educate the homeowner; go over everything to market the property appropriately with the real market value. Your uniqueness also comes from being available whenever we call for help. We appreciate you answering our calls and returning calls for follow-up conversations. When you supported us three years ago, you carefully listened to us and based on our needs, you made the necessary search to rent our property the very next day you put the "for rent" sign on the property yard. That was amazing! I want you to know that, when we need the services of an agent again, you will be the one who gained our trust, made us feel good about our property, and showed personal integrity. Please accept our sincere gratitude for your service and professionalism."

"Altaf was simply amazing. He went above and beyond to make sure to find a place that I can instantly call home. I am extremely happy to have worked with Altaf. His responsiveness, attention to details, and wealth of knowledge of the housing market in the DMV are just a few examples of the great qualities he has as a realtor. I would not have bought my first home with anyone else. " - A J.
