Max was referred to me by a friend when I first moved to Philly last November. He listened to what I was looking for in a first home and sent me listings that exactly fit my search criteria. He has an expert knowledge of all the different neighborhoods in Philly - down to a street by street level, and we were able to find a new construction home for a great price within our first week! We just closed on a second investment property less than 9 months after he helped me find my primary residence and I am even more impressed than before! I would best describe Maxs strengths as the following: 1) Communicative - Max is a fantastic communicator, making himself available for all my questions and concerns, sometimes as often as 4-5 calls a day. He was extremely transparent throughout the closing process. 2) Negotiations - Max was very adept at negotiations. He has fantastic, reasonable tactics that helped us close fast and easy on both of my deals. He sets up his offers to be win-wins for both the buyer and seller so everyone walks away happy. 3) Expertise - Max has knowledge of all the neighborhoods and streets in Philly. He pays attention to all the macro and micro trends in the city and knows where the best places to buy are. When he heard I was in the market for an investment property, he helped build and walk through customized financial models for each of the properties that we evaluated. This was extremely helpful because I knew I had found a fantastic property. 4) Network - Max has an extensive network of realtors, builders, developers, property managers, insurance agents, and lenders in the city. He has knowledge of a host of different loan products on the market and connects you with the right person to get you best deal. (Ask him how he helped me buy a new home with 0% down, no PMI, and industry lowest interest rate). His network at Powered by McCann gives him extremely high credibility within the real estate community. When we got into a bidding war, his reputation, credibility in closing helped us achieve an edge over the other offers (without offering any more money).

Goes above and beyond time and again. I knew nothing about real estate and Max drove me around neighborhood after neighborhood until we had refined exactly what I was looking for. Then he found the perfect place and had me in it within two months. The level of client service was nothing Id ever seen as he connected me with the mortgage provider, insurance, and dealt with everything from the inspection to closing. Hes methodical in his approach, he listens to his clients and finds them the best fit with exceptional follow-through. 10/10 would recommend

I was working with another relator to sell my condo, but they were not meeting my expectations in numerous ways. Max immediately stepped in and I noticed a difference right away. He showed strong knowledge both of the local market and also general best practices. He made a commitment to me that I would have my condo sold by a certain date and not only did he meet that date, but it was sold less than a week after it was listed on the market. Not only was it sold, but the offer we received actually exceeded my expectations. He has a true talent for what he does, displays a "hunger" like few others, and makes sure that his clients are always satisfied. Max is a rising star in the real estate market in Philly.

Max helped me purchase my first home. Not only is Max super chill and patient, but this man also works around the clock! I couldnt be happier with all the contacts Max connected me to, to make sure I got my dream home. Max is organized and efficient with everything he does. He even got me a bottle of champagne on my closing day. Highly recommend!

Max did an incredible job throughout the entire process. He tailored my home search to my specific needs and provided great insights on areas to focus or ignore. He provided great knowledge on the specific types of properties, like things to look out for when viewing the home, good signs or red flags that would make the house less desirable. He listened and understood what I was looking for to pick out a great house for my opportunity. He walked me through every step in detail and connected me with great resources. He sat down to explain everything during negotiations, added value in offers with great suggestions to include things I wouldve over looked. He was always responsive when i had a question, concern or anything at all. Hes even helping me with renting out rooms on my property post close. Ive been recommending Max to friends and family, and hope to work with him again in the future. Thanks Max!
