What our clients are saying.
"The process of selling our house from beginning to end could not have gone more smoothly and an outsized amount of credit for this is due to John and Trevor. Their professionalism, industry knowledge, and responsiveness went above and beyond every step of the way. Our home was under contract before even being officially brought to market, the sale closed without issue, and both buyers and sellers were overwhelmingly pleased with all aspects of the transaction. I cannot recommend them both highly enough!"
Jody & Brendan Devine
John, Janis, and Trevor exceeded my expectations when they helped me sell my home. I thought that I knew the local real estate market very well, but the team has more details and insights that I do, which resulted in a significantly higher sales price than I expected. My home was listed, placed under contract, and sold in two weeks. They are an amazing team and working with them was a pleasure. I will definitely use them again when needed and refer whenever possible.

Working with John Eric was more than I ever imagined a home sale and purchase could be. I have moved over fourteen times in my lifetime. This most recent experience with John was far and away the best moving experience of my life. From the minute my husband and I first met with John he was enthusiastic and professional. He handled every aspect of the home listing without any hitches or glitches from photo taking to open houses to settlement. During the time our home was on the market my husband died and John was deeply respectful of my situation. He gave me the time I needed to grieve without concerning me with the home sale yet two months after my husband’s death he was able to find some buyers for my home. He then helped me take care of all of the appointments needed to satisfy the homeowner’s inspection requirements. He then helped me find someone that would assist in the purging and packing of my belongings. He also found me the most perfect new home. Settlement on both homes went perfectly smoothly with no hiccups. John is an amazing realtor, top of his profession. A class act. Extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of the sale of the home and the purchase of a new one. I cannot say enough positive things about my moving experience with John at the helm. The added bonus is that I found a friend in John in the process. I highly recommend his services. Professional from A to Z. Kind, caring, smart, professional.

"It’s a pleasure to write this testimonial for John Eric, Janis Hicks, and the Compass Team! We’ve worked with John since 2015 and he has been an excellent advisor to us on what to do with our condominium in Rosslyn. We were initially undecided if we should rent the unit or put it on the market for sale. His consultative approach and analytical research gave us the needed information to keep our condominium as a rental which provided meaningful positive cash flow. Over the years he was able to advise us on updates we should consider making to keep our property competitive with current market listings. And when we needed to make repairs, Janis was invaluable in coordinating with the various contractors, giving them access to the building, and ensuring they were completing the work satisfactorily. After many years of having our condominium as a rental, we decided to sell it (with John’s advice of course). John was able to perform the correct market analysis to price our property competitively. He provided expert feedback on offers, requests for changes, etc. We sold our condominium this summer that we loved and still have an emotional connection to. Thank you again John & Janis for the many years of friendship and partnership!"

"John and Trevor helped us rent out our house. They made the process extremely easy and hassle free. For instance, they took the lead on finding the right people to make small repairs and cosmetic fixes. Moreover, they were able to find wonderful tenants within a day after listing. Overall, this was a great experience and we highly recommend them."
David Erkens
John Eric is an excellent realtor. We worked with John and his team to purchase and sell several homes in Northern Virginia and are always thrilled with his market expertise and flawless execution. John's attention to detail goes beyond a simple checklist. He takes ownership of the entire process, going above and beyond to help his clients find the perfect home and providing a seamless experience in the administration of documentation and inspections. We always felt like John's most important clients, and he goes out of his way to provide white-glove service and a positive attitude. Additionally, we always felt that we could trust John and his team to keep the process moving, providing incredible peace of mind during what could potentially be a stressful and draining time. We enthusiastically recommend John to any buyer or seller in the DC market, regardless of budget. Thank you John, Trevor, Janis and the entire Compass team!
Chip and Ali
"John, Trevor and Janis are professional, friendly, helpful and very energetic. I highly recommend them. I bought a condo a few years ago where John was the selling agent. I was so impressed with John and his team that I recently had them sell a property for me. They made a complex sale easy for me. They ensured a top dollar valuation of the property by advertising it aggressively as well as helping with some last minute repairs. Truly, they helped across the full spectrum of what a top tier real estate team should do to help their client. I trust them implicitly. John and the team are experts in the DC area – a true pleasure to work with too!"

"John did an incredible job selling our condo in Arlington. He knew the area, the building, and what perspective buyers were looking for and how to reach them. We had renters in our property at the time and he did an incredible job balancing our wishes to sell the property while respecting their privacy and rights. I can’t recommend him and his team (Janis is amazing) enough. They made what could have been a very difficult and cumbersome process/event into an efficient and effective experience"
Reagan & Clark
"Trevor and John helped my wife and I sell our condo in Columbia Heights and purchase a our new home in Chevy Chase (Trevor was our buyers agent when we purchased the condo back in 2015). They put forth a compelling marketing plan that highlighted our unique property and we are thrilled at the outcome. When it came to our new home, they were tremendously helpful in putting together a compelling offer and assisting with navigating a complex (and messy) TOPA situation. Exceptional professionals – highly recommend."
Sihyun & Rachel Choi
"John Eric was an extremely knowledgeable, dedicated real estate agent. It was a pleasure working with him and Trevor Moore. They made us feel like they were totally focused on the sale of our condo: advised on how best to prepare the condo for sale, worked with other agents to broadly market the availability of our condo, and successfully executed the sale of our condo in 3 days at full listing price. But their work with us did not stop there. Both John and Trevor worked closely with us until the day our condo sale closed. They went above and beyond the sale process…even helping us to store some of our furniture and move to an apartment so we were prepared to go to closing within a very short time-frame. I would not hesitate to highly recommend both of these real estate agents."
Maddy & Paul Macko
Ryan did great work for us in buying our home and selling our townhome. From the start and to the end of the process he was very responsive with good negotiations skills. He is very diligent and dedicated professional. I would highly recommend his services.

"We just completed our fourth transaction with John and are currently in the throes of our fifth. So long as we keep living in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, we’ll have no other Realtor®! As I wrote way back in 2013 (!!), John is the best at what he does: trustworthy, communicative, with an impeccable pulse on the market and always ready to go to bat for his clients…many of whom become close friends. Five Stars all the way…"
Joseph & Rebecca
"John Eric Trevor Moore and Associates are Realtors® who go well above and beyond when it comes to selling your home. The amount of time, energy and effort that they put into selling our home is what makes them most stand out. Not only did they recommend improvements that we could do to help sell our house at a higher price, they had the vendors to do the work and even oversaw the changes. Very responsive, always attentive and also a fun group to boot! I enjoyed working with JETMA so much, I decided to join the team!"
Colette Bryan
"John Eric and his team were the perfect Realtors®. I do realize perfect is a strong word and I mean it. They responded almost immediately to every question or request. They priced the unit spot-on, recommended reasonable upgrades, coordinated getting those upgrades and a few repairs completed, and kept me up to date on everything. The team is professional and knowledgeable. I have closed (one side or the other) over a dozen times in recent years and this was by far the smoothest and most low stress closing I’ve ever experienced."
E. Nelson
"We retained John and Trevor to sell our condo after 2 prior sales efforts had failed. Jointly, using their candid assessments of the condo market, we explored all options and set a sales goal. John and Trevor were efficient and effective in their marketing and soon identified and engaged potential buyers. They achieved a deal at our asking price in a very short time. All objectives for this sale were met and the closing was well-managed, which Shelly made happen. We would recommend this team without reservation."
Steve & Karen
"I just have to say that working with Trevor and John was a dream experience! They were professional, courteous and prompt in all his communications and actions. I couldn’t think of anything that just was not top notch about the whole experience! They even had recommendations for the moving company and handyman that I needed to complete the relocation process. I wouldn’t dream of using anyone else for all of my real estate needs!"
Julie Siemers
"We worked with John Eric and Trevor Moore during our relocation to Virginia earlier this year. We were unfamiliar with the area and needed someone knowledgeable who could provide strong guidance. We hit the jackpot with John and Trevor. From our very first phone conversation with John, we were impressed by his knowledge of the areas we were considering. We met both John and Trevor when they showed us homes in various areas around Nova. As corny as it sounds, it truly was like getting two for one. John and Trevor were able to manage the whole transaction and represented us well. We would definitely use them again and highly recommend them."
Jackie Vaughn
"John Eric and Trevor Moore were outstanding in every respect! Incredibly helpful, efficient and responsive, everything went like a breeze and the house sold for exactly what they said it would despite lower initial estimates from other Realtors®. They came warmly recommended by neighbors who were absolutely right!"
Jean F. Delpech
"Working with the team of John Eric and Trevor Moore was a wonderful experience. As a first time home buyer and currently over seas, I found this process (because of the professionalism of John and Trevor) to be a pleasant one. They always made me feel like I was a priority through this process and would answer all of my questions with efficiency, intelligence and humor which I very much appreciated. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this team. I would 100% recommend my friends and family to work with them in a heart beat!"
Lisa Halenar
"A huge Thanks to John and Trevor @ Compass for selling our Arlington home in 3 days! Their team eased the stress of a fast corporate relocation and took care of everything for us on the ground while we were already relocated and living in Dallas. From staging to landscaping, they handled everything to maximize our sale! Super easy and highly recommended!"
Chris Womack & Brandon Patchett
"Simply put, John goes above and beyond for his clients. From the time we engaged him and his team, we felt like they helped us develop a plan to get our home sold on the schedule and for the price that was agreed upon. The sale of our home presented some unprecedented challenges in the time of COVID, and John continued to do everything required to ultimately meet our goals and expectations for this process. Even after the closing of our home, John has still been as responsive to our questions as he was at the beginning of the process. If you are looking for a Realtor®, you definitely should consider John Eric!"
Jane & Erik
John Eric is an outstanding realtor. His team is professional with immediate responsiveness on every detail. John has endless energy to make everything happen. He and his team are helpful with any questions to make every step of the way move smoothly. John’s team also has a pulse on the market to make a sale happen. With our home the sale happened even before the open house! I highly recommend his team if you want the best.
Clay and Irene
We cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Trevor and his team. Trevor was fantastic to work with throughout the entire process of selling our home. From the start, we were very impressed with his personal approach, attention to detail and hard work. He was always accessible and quick to respond to any question. Compass also offers a concierge service that assists with home upgrades, staging and more! We are extremely happy with the outcome and HIGHLY recommend Trevor and his team for any of your real estate needs!
Rich and Aimee
Trevor, Janis and the Trevor + John team are just awesome! True professionals! We have sold or purchased many homes over the years and Trevor has been, by far, the absolute best agent we have had the pleasure to work with. Trevor took the time to talk thru all our questions and concerns, made excellent recommendations about how to prepare our condo for sale and did a wonderful job staging our condo. Bottomline - we had a full price offer within days of our condo going on the market! I could not make a stronger recommendation for Trevor and his team!
John and Belinda
"Working with John and Trevor was an excellent experience from our initial questions about house buying through actually buying a house. They were responsive to all of our initial questions and provided a good sounding board that allowed my partner and I to feel more comfortable with the process and to hone in on what the best situation was for us. It was never pressure about buying and focused on what made sense as they provided us information to enable us to make a choice appropriate for our family."
Jason Fesser
"We recently made a quick decision to buy a home in Florida, but that meant selling our townhouse in Arlington, VA quickly. I knew of John and Trevor through other sales in our community, so decided to give them a call. They came right out, and took over from (in a good way) the start. Everything was explained in simple terms for us to understand. John and Trevor brought in a stager (Claudia) a delightful lady and they turned our townhouse into a magazine model. I can not stress enough how hard it is to sell your home of 20 years, the emotions ran high, but this team made the transition smooth and easy. The emotions were still there, but they helped us through that time."
