She was fantastic! Went above and beyond. Without her my first home buying would have not gone so easily. She came up with people I could call for repairs, she made us a to do list timeline that was very helpful. She stayed after everything was over to make sure the people I hired for repairs did their job when I was unavailable to do it. Beatriz was just amazing and I really highly recommend her. I would definitely ask for her help again if I’m ever going to buy another place.

Beatriz helped me purchase my house in the very competitive market of Silver Spring. She walked me through the process and made the transaction so easy. I'm not an expert in real estate and mortgages, and it's hard to find someone you can trust who is. Beatriz is that lady, she has gained my trust and I would not hesitate to work with her again and allow her to be my representative. She was even able to set me up with a lender that offered the exact type of loan I needed at a very competitive rate. It was basically a one stop shop for me. Good genuine person, honest in her dealings, and really cares about her job and the satisfaction of her clients. For us home shoppers, nothing is more important than that. Thank you Beatriz!

Beatriz is a fantastic Realtor in the DMV area. I have been buying and selling properties in Maryland for the past 31 years so much experience with numerous realtors. The situation with this condo was complex, because involved my 79yo tenant of 16 years who needed to stay, due to the Covid crisis. Other realtors either weren't interested, or wanted me to lower my price ["sorry, not gonna happen"] for a quick sale, or not willing to look for a buyer who would work with my tenant. The condo sale also had a lot of paperwork issues with the condo association as well as Prince Georges County real estate title issues, with which I did not want to deal.
I contacted Beatriz and explained the situation. She took over the whole file, made all the phone calls, did all the paperwork, and found a buyer to both pay my full price (property as is) and sign a new lease for my tenant. I can assure you no other realtor would have done this amount of work and would have been whining and complaining to me the whole time.

Beatriz is very responsive, flexible, knowledgeable, has a great personality, and is absolutely great to work with. Her recommendations showed she understood what was important to us and that she paid attention to what we liked and didn’t like. She helped my husband and I find a great house and then pleasantly surprised us when such a sweet personality become a shark during negotiations to help us get the best deal. I would recommend her to anyone willing to listen.

Professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy are words that come to mind when I think of Beatriz Chevez. She is a consultant at heart and truly understands customers needs/preferences and provides excellent solutions. She is extremely detail-oriented and is always willing to help. My family and I have been viewing homes for several weeks with Beatriz and she has been an absolute pleasure to work with so far. I can’t wait to buy a home from her in the near future! Additionally, I find it tremendously helpful that she is bilingual in English and Spanish. Her ability to negotiate in both languages and work with customers from all backgrounds is a huge asset. I cannot say enough good things about Beatriz! She is wonderful!

I want to thank Beatriz for helping me in the process of my first home purchase. Thanks to her my family and I are living comfortably in a house we can call our own. A home in which I can walk in and out safely, something I did not have in the previous home I rented. The best part is once home other parts of my life and commuting remained convenient if not better. Aside from the perks of my home the process before hand was made a breeze by Beatriz. Her commitment was incredible, there was never a time she didn't work around my work schedule. Not to mention her diligence, cause trust me my loan was not impressive. With the slow market and seldom new properties that would become available my options were not many. But Beatriz made sure I was always one of the first if not the first to view every property that matched my standard and budget. After the closing process I realized being a homeowner was an American dream my parents worked so hard for, and their daughter had achieved that dream at the age of 27. Thank you Beatriz for all your help.

Beatriz has to be the best realtor to work with, she's exceptional on every level.
Made all the process so easy that I couldn't believe when everything ended.
She was right on top of everything, not just listing but scheduling tours, checking with the loan office, title company any anything else you can imagine.
She is so responsive that will contact you even while on vacation. Talking about customer service!
I'm a first buyer and I thought the process was going to be long and painful, but it was the complete opposite, it was painless and when I least expected she notified me that we were ready to close. I was amazed. Didn't have problems with paperwork since she helped me in such a detailed way that everything was crystal clear.
Working with her was the best experience ever, I would recommend her any time.
Professional, trustworthy, organized, just a few words to be able to describe her.
I'm glad I was able to work with her, and hopefully will do it again.

Absolutely the best by far. I'm 61 years old and never wrote any review positive or negative until now. Beatriz was amazing and I wish I could give more than 5 stars for the work she did for us.
This was my first time selling a home and I interviewed 5 agents with prior neighborhood experience and was planning to select another agent until I heard that Beatriz had sold a property in my neighborhood for a higher price than any other home in neighborhood history. I quickly set up a meeting with her and, after speaking with her, I realized why she is so successful. Within about a little over a month of meeting her, she got my home on the market and sold for more than any other home in my neighborhood (another record high sale price for the neighborhood). The sale price was about $40K+ more than the agent I was planning to hire. I never thought an agent would make that big of a difference as they all said about the same thing until I met her.
Now, she's the only agent I'll ever use or recommend to anyone in the future. She keeps you informed, is detailed, thorough and successful. I could not have asked for any more in an agent. If you want top dollar for your home, she's the one you want to work with.

I worked with Beatriz for a few months and she was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I went through a homebuying program that required more time and patience and Beatriz was there every step of the way. Whenever I had a question or concern throughout my homebuying process, she was always accessible. She went above and beyond her fiduciary duty, including coming to my closing and informing me about tax credits. I am now a first time homeowner and I couldn’t have found my dream home without Beatriz.

I have now bought and sold a house with Beatriz as my realtor, and I would 100% recommend her!!! I love how responsive, professional, and knowledgeable she is. She really takes the time to explain through the whole process and all your options when both buying and selling your home, which is really helpful (especially in a competitive market or as a first time home buyer/seller!). I really can't say enough positive things about my experience!

Beatriz was a wonderful agent. I have worked with many agents over the years and she is by far the most responsive, the nicest, most flexible, and best to work with. She understood my needs and made great suggestions.
Highly recommend!!
