Testimonials

Brendan and Kristen were absolutely amazing! They are really knowledgeable about general trends as well as local trends. Admittedly, I had a tough house to sell but these two were super aggressive in marketing and staging the home and we ended up selling for a reasonable price.

Brendan did a phenomenal job of working with me and my best friend to secure our currently place. We were literally going to be homeless, and he helped us find a place quickly and lay down the facts. I never felt pressured, and he always had a wealth of information to share. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Andrew
My wife and I were so impressed with Kim Kash. As first time homebuyers, we came in knowing very little about the home buying process. Kim was extremely knowledgeable, honest, and reassuring throughout the whole process (including intimate knowledge of Greenbelt and the GHI coop we were looking to buy in). We ended up with our dream home and I give Kim all the credit for that!
Ella
The best of the best. The Caprika realty team is phenomenal, they're all super helpful and they always respond to texts, calls, or emails very quickly. Buying or selling a house can be pretty stressful, but the Caprika folks go out of their way to make it go as smoothly and as calmly as possible. Thank you Brendan, Chelsea, and Kristen, you are awesome!!
Dan
Caprika Realty was great to work with. They were very knowledgeable throughout the entire process of buying our home. They worked with us from the very beginning and helped us find our perfect house. I loved that they didn’t pressure us into buying something that was not right for our family. They listened to our needs and wants and waited until we were comfortable in buying (like 2 years, ha). They were so patient. They are a family owned business who are just like that, family. We were forever grateful for their help and support! I would HIGHLY recommend Caprika Realty if you are looking to buy or sell a home.

Brendan and Chelsea make a great team! As a first-time-homebuyer, I'm so grateful to have had Caprika on my side. I was even able to call Brendan after we had closed when I had questions about new homeowner stuff that I probably should have just googled, but he answered all my questions anyway. If I buy another home, I know I'll call Caprika again!
Chelsea W
We wholeheartedly recommend Kim Kash and the team at Caprika Realty. Kim expertly guided us through the buying and selling process. She was extremely helpful, patient and knowledgable. Very accessible and quick to respond, she went above and beyond to assist us and make our buying and selling experiences smooth sailing. Her local knowledge and connections came in handy often and she is genuinely a really nice person! We were also impressed with Brendan and the rest of the team!
Cara & Paul Leisnham
I was so lucky to have Kim Kash as my listing agent. She is competent, experienced, hard-working, and a great communicator. It took only two months to get the house ready to sell, put it on the market, contract with a buyer, and close.

Andrew Parr
Great experience with Caprika Realty, selling my house and buying a new house. They are extremely easy to communicate with and very responsive. I really appreciate all the guidance I got, and was happy with all parts of the process. For a lot of the big decisions, Brendan would lay out different options and make sure to understand what my goals were to choose the best plan for me.
Andrew Bacha
We moved to Maryland in May 2019, in the middle of a meteoric and insanely difficult housing market for buyers (still rising as of ten months later). We contacted Kim Kash initially based on positive online reviews, and couldn’t have been more satisfied with the process. While the process of homebuying was much more difficult than We'd imagined, based on the levels of competitiveness, Kim gave us excellent guidance, unflagging availability, and deep knowledge about a really wide range of homes that we looked at. Particular high points were helping us extricate ourselves from a seller who ended up behaving in a really sketchy manner after we’d made an offer, and in helping us find ways to make competitive offers in a market where we were regularly outbid by many tens of thousands over the asking prices. I hope we’re in our new home for a long time, but if we were to move, We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Kim Kash again or give her anything but the highest recommendation...Kim is the best.....

Buying or selling a house can be pretty stressful, but the Caprika folks go out of their way to make it go as smoothly and as calmly as possible. Thank you Brendan, Chelsea, and Kristen, you are awesome!!
Daniel Sidwell
Brendan and Kristen were fabulous! My children recommended Brendan when we started looking for our forever home (which happens to be a horse farm). Brendan was flexible to meet our schedule and fully answered every question we had. Kristen was on top of all the necessary paperwork and kept us on track with this house and selling our former residence. Couldn't be happier with the experience!
Dorothy Beierl
Brendan and everyone at Caprika really took care of us throughout the whole house search and buying process. We were on a tight timeline and they were very responsive during the whole process to make sure we were able to stick to it. We really appreciated Brendan's insight into the structural integrity of the houses we saw and his guidance to us as first time homebuyers. Will be recommending Caprika to everyone we know looking to buy or sell their home.
Sarah Durso
I chose Caprika because of their attention to detail. I enjoyed working with Kim and I do recommend their service!
Jennifer Page
We could not have asked for better service than we received from Kim, our realtor with Caprika Realty. Kim brought energy, enthusiasm, and professionalism to every single step in the process and helped guide us to the purchase of our new home in Greenbelt. What made this all the more remarkable, and complicated, was that much of the sales process was done while we were traveling overseas. Kim arranged for an inspection on our behalf and even allowed us to talk with the inspector in real time over FaceTime. By the closing of the deal, we felt very well looked after.
Scott Baldauf
We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Brendan and Kristen went above and beyond helping us sell our home. They listened, offered good advice and were not over the top in any way. We appreciated that. We hit some unexpected snags along the way and they worked with us through any issue that came up. We highly recommend them without reservation.
James Domoracki
The Caprika team were awesome in helping us sell our house! Brendan led our sale and was helpful from the word 'go'. They provided guidance and reassurance every step of the way and helped us navigate selling our first house. We couldn't have been happier with their professionalism and the overall outcome.
Christina Simkanin
My wife and I were so impressed with Kim Kash. As first time homebuyers, we came in knowing very little about the home buying process. Kim was extremely knowledgeable, honest, and reassuring throughout the whole process (including intimate knowledge of Greenbelt and the GHI coop we were looking to buy in). We ended up with our dream home and I give Kim all the credit for that!
Ella Kirchner
Don't hesitate to contact Caprika if you're buying or selling a home. Brendan, Chelsea, Kristen and the team are super insightful and organized and helped us sell our place seamlessly. They did an excellent job throughout the process, are very accessible and forward-thinking, and you won't regret working with them. Thanks-a-million Caprika.
Ian Davidson
My Realtor Kim Kash was knowledgeable, helpful, diligent, low-pressure, and most importantly, listened carefully to what I was looking for and helped me find a place in my budget that met every single one of my requirements. I could not be happier with the service I received and my awesome new place.
Jennifer Errick
Our experience with Brendan and Chelsea started 2 years ago when they were recommended through friends to help us find a rental closer to work. Over the two year period we would occasionally email questions about the real estate market and always received a timely response. When we finally were ready to start looking for our new home Brendan and Chelsea were there every step of the way. Their business isn't just a 9-5. Due to our work schedules, the best time for us to talk was in the evening after our kids were in bed. Brendan and Chelsea understand the dynamics of having a young family and were always ready to talk. Our home buying process was quite enjoyable. Their knowledge of all aspects of the market helped us feel completely at ease when looked at houses as well as when we placed an offer. This process was as stress free as possible because we had a great team ready to help guide us every step of the way. We highly recommend them to anyone we know looking for a real estate agent!
H G Ped
I enthusiastically recommend Caprika Realty. Brendan and the Caprika team were attentive, personable, thorough, thoughtful, efficient, and accommodating. They’re really attuned to the emotional dimension of buying a house; they provided me with the most individualized, comfortable service I could have hoped for. The experience of buying with them was super smooth because they work hard to eliminate as much of the stress as possible. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the Caprika team.
Tiffany Jones-Rouse
Kristin & Caprika Were such a pleasure to work with! They were very knowledgeable and efficient. I have recommended their services to everyone since settling on my home on August 8! They will be who I use if/when I move, again. Thank you all for everything!
Jessica Guerin
Branden made it very easy and stress free to purchase a home. Would recommend Caprika Realty to anyone buying or salting a home. Best guy ever!
Barbara Lynn
Brendan Spear and Kim Kash were the Caprika team that guided us through the selling experience. Without exception, they kept us regularly informed of progress with showing the house and gave us excellent feedback from comments by potential buyers. They gave us first-rate advice on how to present the house for sale so it would show the best. The amount of attention they gave to our concerns helped us tremendously in being at peace with the progress of the marketing effort. We have twice before sold houses as our family grew and our needs changed. But never have we been so pleased with the selling experience as we have with Brendan and Kim.
James Cooney
Wonderdul experience, highly recommend working with Brendan and his team! I wasn't even in country when they sold my house, from start to finish...it was such a positive experience...they made everything so painless.
Simran McDowell
Kim Kash helped us through every step of the process, quickly figuring out exactly what we wanted in a home. She was knowledgeable about the purchase process and about the GHI cooperative. She and her broker worked with us to put together an offer we were comfortable with, knowing there were multiple offers on the house we wanted - success!
Charlotte Lake
They did a fantastic job. Very knowledgeable and helpful and made the purchasing and closing process easy.
Tre K
Brendan was amazing from start to finish. We were “just looking” and starting to see what was out there when we stumbled upon a house. B said we needed to go see is ASAP because it wouldn’t last, and he was right! With 6 other offers he guided us in the right direction and we won the house!
Amy Stec
The Caprika Team did an excellent job helping us with our search for a new home!
Marcus Blanchard
Brandon is great to work with. He is knowledgeable, personable and has high ethical standards. He and his team made selling a smooth and pleasant process.
Joanna Perkins
Brendan, Kristen, and the whole Caprika Realty team were a dream come true! From our very first visit with Brendan where he explained the whole buying and selling process in great detail, to finding us the perfect home for our family, to selling our townhouse...everything was perfect! While looking for a home to buy, Brendan was so patient with our list of must-haves and we never felt pressured or rushed. Kristen was extremely helpful with all the behind the scenes work and answered all my endless questions! Selling our townhome was a bit more of a process- but Brendan was right there every step of the way, calling weekly to check in and give us updates and advice. What I loved most was how easy Brendan was to get ahold of- text, facebook, email... It didn't matter! I don't think we would have gotten our home if he didn't schedule showings so quickly. Brendan, Kristen, and the whole team- thank you for making one of the most stressful processes so painless!
Kelly Martin
When it came time to sell my condo in Germantown I turned to Brendan and Chelsea at Caprika Realty again to handle the sale. This is the second time I have used Caprika to sell a property. They are the BEST choice for handing the sale of your property. I cannot say enough about how they went beyond my expectations. They are dedicated, enthusiastic and super knowledgeable about the real estate market. I followed Brendan's suggestions for putting the finishing touches to my property. Little things like changing the door hardware really made a huge difference. Brendan was always available to answer my question and allay my anxieties. My condo sold in 4 days. Thanks Caprika for another amazing home sale.
Suzanne Norris
I have nothing but positive things to say about Caprika Realty. Our realtor, Kristen, was recommended by a friend for her five star service. We had no idea what went into the home-buying process, and she was patient and walked us through every step of the way. If you want an excellent realtor that truly cares about you and your home buying needs, then Caprika is the way to go.
Hope Perry
Kim Kash is very professional and knowledgeable about the field, I recommend working with her for your real estate needs!
Amy Riemer
We have lived in this area of over 20 years and have met loads of realtors. We used Caprika for advice renovating our townhouse to get it ready to sell. We used Caprika to buy our current home. Then, they sold our townhouse for us. I know the amount of time a house takes to sell is probably important criteria in rating a realtor (ours was listed at Thanksgiving and sold by January), however Brendan and Chelsea helped me enormously in the additional following ways: they communicated with me via FB, text, email and phone, i.e. whatever method happened to suit me wherever I was, Brendan answered my seriously dumb questions (including "how do I turn off the water to the house?"), and I got a sense of security from the amount of knowledge they had about the process and the resources and contacts they have in the business. I can't forget Kristin Wahler! She kept close track of all the different stages and kept things going.
Catherine Zarate
Caprika realty was recommended to me by a friend and Im so glad we listened! This was my first time buying a home and Kristen was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I knew barely anything about the home buying process and she informed me every step of the way. She found so many great recommendations for the inspections, lender, etc. If you want a great realtor that truly cares about the house they put you in, the use Caprika!
Elissa Perry
My fiancee and I began our house search in September and with another realtor and that person was not so friendly, pushy and impatient with us being first time home buyers. My fiancee's coworker referred us to Brendan and he was just what we needed. Brendan was patient and very helpful throughout the process of finding and buying a home. He gave us friendly advice and suggestions along the way without being pushy. In the buying process there were snags and he was there with us backing us up as well as being proactive in getting things cleared up in order for us to close before our deadline. My fiancee and I are happy that we used Brendan and his Caprika Realty team.
Asmun Washington
I would recommend Caprika Realty in a heartbeat. (We're so pleased with our new house that I don't think we'll be needing a realtor again anytime soon.) Brendan is great! He listened to what we said we wanted in a house, and paid attention to why we wanted those things and what we used our living space for. He found a perfect-for-us house in a couple weeks - including features we hadn't realized we wanted. When we were preparing to sell our previous house, he was an excellent adviser on what improvements would be worth our money and what we shouldn't bother with. He was quick to respond to questions, whether via email, text or phone call
Erin Hack
Brendan and his team did a remarkable job keeping the purchase on my new home on target and getting the job done. He is straight forward with his approach without pretense. He is very down to earth and was always available when I had questions. Thanks Brendan for making my dreams a reality.
Scott Finlay
Very personable and knowledgeable of the housing market! They will not allow you to live in a home that is unsuitable to them. And they don't pressure you into making hasty decisions. I have referred friends and family and no complaints 8 years now.
Chandra Edmonds
My experience with Brendan and Chelsea was both, as a buyer and a seller. And for both, they did whatever they could to get us the best possible result. I am completely satisfied with how they handled our selling process, from beginning to end. They are very professional, yet very personable. I was able to sell my property, better than the offer I had originally expected. As for the buying, Brendan and Chelsea were able to find the property that has now become our dream home we are residing. Thank you greatly, and this is only the beginning of many more businesses to come!
Mohammed Sadaat
We could not be happier with our home buying and selling experience with Caprika Realty. Brendan and Chelsea are both professional and great at what they do! Brendan advised which home improvements would give us the best return on the sale of our house and what areas not to waste precious time and money on. I have no doubt that we got a top-notch offer thanks to their advice and the amazing pictures Chelsea took when marketing our listing. We felt like they were always there to answer our questions and were very flexible with making time to help us find the right home. I'm confident that Brendan's excellent negotiation skills saved us thousands of dollars and helped us get a great deal on our dream home. Brendan's years of experience in the real estate market are evident when it comes to the stressful negotiation part of the home buying/selling process. With his savvy advice, we always felt we were making the right decisions in submitting and/or accepting offers and counteroffers. Choosing a realtor to help you navigate the real estate market is a huge decision and we absolutely recommend Caprika Realty.
Michael Tayag
They were awesome. They helped me and my family tremendously. Gave us advice and guided us. Even though we were not able to buy a house they continued helping us and giving us advice to reach our goals. They are wonderful people with huge hearts and when we do buy a house it will definitely be through them.
Jacquelyn Thompson
Caprika Realty made our first home buying experience extremely smooth and kept us at ease throughout the entire process. From the moment we began looking at houses on the ground all the way to the day of the settlement, they were very proactive in answering any questions that we might have and extremely responsive to our concerns. What was especially impressive to us was the personal touch they put on the whole process. We began the home buying experience by them sitting us down and walking us through the whole process from day 1 to settlement day. Their knowledge regarding the area is exceptional. They knew what areas were developing, where the good schools were, etc. Because of their in-depth knowledge we were able to make an informed decision about where to make our first home purchase and now we couldn't be happier.
Justin Fincham
Chelsea and Brendan helped us sell our house and the process couldn't have been more seamless. We never felt pressured into anything, they were able to talk us through the whole process. They were always upfront and honest with all the information, which made it much easier for us to choose what we wanted. We look forward to using them again when we move back to the area to buy!
Barbara Miller
Brendan and Chelsea make a great team! They have helped me buy and sell a house. Its like having your best friend help you with a life changing event. They made it way easy, and walked me through everything. I would recommend Caprika Reality, and them to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent a HOME.
Jason Morton
Caprika Realty exhibited the utmost professionalism as my seller agent for my condo sale. Given my case was sort of unique and I was living 2,000 miles away, I had MANY questions for them along the way prior to signing an agreement, and they graciously and patiently answered ALL of them. Anytime I needed more guidance on the process or in need of knowing my options, they responded swiftly and professionally. With every milestone, I received status reports as to where my case stood and if any information was outstanding. They were always honest and realistic with me about expectations and this frequency of communication was not only vital, it was reassuring at every step. Knowing I could contact them anytime was huge relief. I am beyond appreciative and deeply thankful at their commitment to a successful outcome and would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of home or looking to sell their home. You really cannot go wrong with Caprika!!
Robyn Eason
Brendan was the best! My husband and I were first-time, very nervous, home buyers. He held our hands through the whole process and really helped us find the house that was right for us and would help us reach our own personal goals. We bought our house several years ago, but recently we recently reached out to Brendan with a quick question about how our house was doing on the current real estate market. Brendan got back to us quickly with free and helpful advice. He really cares about his clients and works hard for is best for them. I couldn't recommend him more!
Sarah McFarland
Kim Kash knows her stuff! Great buying experience.
Philip Larkin
Working with Caprika realty was an amazing experience. There is a genuine passion for what they do that makes the ENTIRE process worth the while. They are very hands-on in helping me find exactly what I wanted and was always available to answer any questions that I had no matter how crazy. I thought purchasing a home would be a long strenuous event but with Caprika Realty they helped make everything as smooth and direct as possible. I would recommend them to anyone because they are just amazing people.
Kevin Marshall
I hope I can adequately describe how impressed I was with Brandon and Chelsea at Caprika. Just 100% dedication to me the entire time! They are enthusiastic, knowledgeable, intelligent, and most importantly: GENUINE. I had a unique situation in that my offer was under a contingency...at some point, that contingency was not looking favorable. Enter Caprika with a not only a plan, but the ability to negotiate my offer to get the necessary time I needed. I honestly thought I lost my shot at my dream home, but Brandon was indefatigable, confident, and knew all was not lost. And he was right. Here I sit now in my beautiful new home...thanks to him and Chelsea. I don't anticipate moving any time soon, but if that happens, I will be contacting Caprika and only Caprika for sure!
Eric Wescott
Caprika Realty made buying a home a pleasant experience. When I first met with Brendan, he helped me focus in on what I really wanted in a home, which turned out to be an important exercise. Chelsea showed me several homes, and when I found the one I wanted, they set me up with an excellent, professional team including a mortgage broker, from Monarch Mortgage, and a title company, Dunn Title and Escrow, that made the process flow smoothly, and I closed within 30 days. I'm very happy with my new house, and would recommend Caprika Realty to anyone looking to buy a home!
Connie Spittler
An extremely knowledgeable and capable group, they managed to find a home that my wife and I loved almost immediately. We were always impressed by their service and flexibility in paperwork, face-to-face visits, and coordination. They made the process of buying our home incredibly simple without sacrificing any of the security. If we choose to buy another house in this area we will definitely come back to them! :)
Daniel Lewis
Brendan and Chelsea are absolutely incredible. They both know what they are doing, which is great, but that's just a small part of the package. They make themselves available whenever you need them, they are fast (which is a huge benefit in this market), and they look out for what's best for their client. They don't just try to make a sale. Brendan actually pointed out why one house wasn't what we were looking for, and we are so thankful for that. The house we did get is PERFECT for us and it was a battle to get. I can't tell you how many times I woke up in the morning and saw an email from Brendan at 1am. I swear they don't sleep but you would never know it with the quality they provide. I cannot recommend them enough. Stop looking for a realtor because you found the best you will ever get.
Anastasia Conover
I have known and worked professionally with Brendan and Chelsea Spear, owner's of Caprika Realty, for about six years now. Their knowledge, professionalism and communication, is hands down, the best in the business. Whether buying or selling, if you are looking for a good Realtor team to have your back, who has your interests at heart every step of the way, look no further! You will receive exceptional customer service and will not be disappointed.
Deanna Furman
Made buying and selling seamless. They always made themselves available for questions and showings. Communication was stellar, we were able to esign documents which help speed the process along quickly. Truly care about helping you make the right decisions for your family. Highly recommend.
Jamie Lyon
Our home buying experience with Brendan and Chelsea could not have been better. The service was top-notch, their knowledge extensive, and responsiveness outstanding. They truly make you feel like you are the only client and are always available to answer questions or concerns. I would recommend Caprika Realty to anyone for all their realty needs without any reservation whatsoever.
Dylan Josselin
Chelsea and Brendan are awesome. Super professional with our best interest in mind. They are incredibly knowledgable about all aspects of buying/selling investment properties. We continue to have them represent us, and you should too!
Mitchell Brown
Caprika Realty is the best realtor in the DMV area. I have used Chelsea and Brendan for various real estate needs, from renting to buying and selling. They are so very attentive and knowledgeable when it comes to this area and real estate. If I could give more than 5 Stars I would. No matter how small the real estate need is, they always treat you like you are the most important client.
Heather
I have nothing but great things to say about Caprika Realty. Brendan Spear is a true professional and I really appreciated his low-key, no pressure approach to purchasing a house. Brendan walked me through every detail of the process and even though many of my questions were redundant, he was patient and thorough. I always felt that I was Brendan's only client! I love my new house and I am very grateful to Caprika Realty for helping me achieve my dream. Thank you, Caprika Realty!! *****
Lynne Hardie
As a first time homebuyer I was looking for a realtor who taught me every step needed in a home buying process. I found Brendan and Chelsea's company thanks to a quick Google Search. Their website was so professional with videos, information, and a home search. They were quick to respond to my inquiry and that's how it all begin. Brendan and Chelsea were extremely quick to respond to all calls, emails, and texts I had in regards to looking at homes, questions about homes I like, and more. I never had to wait hours at a time to hear back from either of them. Also, Brendan took me out to view homes at least twice a week with various showings. This was great for me being on a time crunch to move. During my house hunt, Chelsea had a baby but this didn't stop them for helping me purchase a home. They are amazing with time management, considerate, helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and finding the best homes with the best deals for their clients!! Love them!
Pamela Gipson
Brendan and Chelsea made our first-time home-buying experience as smooth as possible. They helped with all our questions & explaining the system so we wouldn't go crazy. Now we have a wonderful place in a wonderful neighborhood and couldn't be happier. They will be the first place we go if we need a realtor again.
Sarah Wolfe
Chelsea and Brendan made selling our house in a tough market a breeze. They treated us like family from day 1: never sugarcoating our expectations and always there with support and advice. Brendan walked through our home giving us meticulous suggestions for the changes we could make to improve the value of our home without sinking so much in that it would not be worth the time or money for the return.When Chelsea took photos of our home we could not believe it! She somehow captured the height of the ceilings and the open and warm layout that in many years living there we could never attempt to replicate on film. Due to the care and diligence and most of all expertise in the market, our home was listed and sold in two days and we closed in under three weeks with Brendan holding our hand through each and every potentially stresful important decision from negotiation to close. We felt 110% cared for he whole time. If you want to have the best home selling or buying experience in Maryland we highly recommend Caprika!!
Angela Radcliffe
Brendan Spear and the team at Caprika Realty are the people you want when it's time to buy or sell a house. We're currently living overseas, and we just settled yesterday on the ideal house for us to call home when we're back in the States. Brendan handled the whole transaction smoothly. Even from 8,000 miles away, I felt confident that everything was under control. Brendan always does what he says he's going to do, on time and with good cheer. Caprika Realty is our real estate company from now on.
Kim K.
Brendan really took the time to learn what we were looking for and help teach us how to find that. We've been in our home for a year and a half and still talk about how perfect it is for us, and how thankful we are to live here.
Debra Scholler
It was great to work with Chelsea and Brendan. Very experienced and easy to work with. Helpful at all times and never shy of answering questions. Chelsea and Brendan also honestly (and politely) pointed out when I was about to make a not so good decision to save me from regrets. Working with them was a breeze and saved me time and money. Thank you very much Chelsea and Brendan!
Friso van Amerom
We sold our previous house and bought our dream home with the help of Brendan and Chelsea. We could not have been happier with the service they gave us. During our initial meeting with Brendan, he explained how they help their clients, took time to understand our goals and what was important to us, and gave us suggestions for how to add value to our previous house before putting it on the market. Those suggestions helped us get serious offers on our home in only a few days. We loved the individual attention that Brendan and Chelsea provided. They were incredibly attentive and really took the time to ease any concerns we had during the stressful time of buying and selling a home. Brendan and Chelsea helped us get into our dream home and we would recommend them to anyone who is looking for guidance in buying or selling a home!
Becky Clapper
We never felt pressured- we felt we got a team that was very honest and helpful! They were helpful in not just the home buying process, but could anticipate and answer our questions about improving and maintaining a home. They were not afraid to steer us away from a home that would not suit our needs- as first time home buyers, this was awesome for us! In addition to all of this, they demystified the many steps of buying a home- from meeting with Brendan to chat to looking at homes to closing, and every cost and possible pitfall along the way was discussed. They also were always available; it was never a problem to get a hold of them! We didn't even know we would be able to buy a house before meeting with Brendan. We had met with two other realtors in years prior that were both eager to show us houses that we may or may not have been able to afford/meet our needs, and we cannot stress enough how we got the exact opposite with Caprika Realty. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish!
Pat Williams
Caprika Realty was referred to me by an excellent realtor I had worked with several times previously because of their expert knowledge of the area I was looking to purchase a home in. I have purchased several homes before so I’m familiar with the process and generally don’t feel like I need a lot of involvement from my realtor, but this particular home purchase was of a type that I had never gone through before, a 203(k). I had a lot of questions and was in a time crunch to meet all the loan requirements in order to close quickly. Caprika Realty was always available and promptly responded to my e-mails, texts, and calls with useful information – even on Christmas Eve. The breadth of knowledge Caprika Realty provided was impressive. Whereas other realtors are only able to tell you obvious information such as the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, Caprika Realty was also able to point out minute details about the property and/or surrounding area to allow you to make a more informed decision. Since I purchase homes to remodel I constantly am examining the real estate market and have always felt knowledgeable enough to make decisions on my own, however, I now also trust the opinions of Caprika Realty – they have proven to be accurate and always in my best interest. I truly feel that Caprika Realty worked hard to give me what I was looking for – from start to closing. In addition, during the process, I was in immediate need of a variety of professional services and Caprika Realty provided several references that proved essential to securing the property. I took advantage of a contractor and lender they recommended and everything has worked out amazingly. I plan on purchasing and selling more homes in the future and will use Caprika Realty again due to their high level of customer service and their ability and willingness to go above and beyond in sharing their top to bottom knowledge of the entire home acquisition process. Caprika Realty is an exceptional company that I highly recommend.
Jon P.
Brendan and Chelsea are the best! As first time home buyers, my husband and I felt like they had our backs every step of the way. The advice and service was invaluable. Everything was clear, concise, and we could not be more pleased with the house we finally chose! Through rain/snow/DC traffic, Brendan and Chelsea come through for their clients. :D If we ever wind up renting out or selling this house, I know who I will turn to. They are my "it people" for real estate in the DC-Baltimore area.

I am a loan officer and have worked with Brendan and Chelsea Spear for several years now. When it comes to customer service, industry knowledge and availability they are exceptional in these areas. Every client that we have assisted in the process of purchasing a new home have all left the settlement table with a sense of excitement and accomplishment. I would recommend Brendan and Chelsea to anyone looking to purchase a new home.
Chris Boston
I have known Brendan since 2008, when he became my realtor, and helped me purchase my home. After Chelsea joined him and they became Caprika realty, together they helped my husband sell his house, and we received such a great return because of their hard work and vision. Caprika Realty, has truly been a blessing to my husband and I. Brendan and Chelsea are always available to answer any questions we may have and are quick to respond when they are needed. We are grateful for their dedication and commitment to their clients, and we would recommend them highly for your real estate needs.

Exceptional blend of professionalism and warm personalism....is that a word? Your best interests will be put in a place of priority.
Cullen DeChant
I have worked with Brendan and Chelsea from Caprika several times over the last few years and I can personally attest to their professionalism and top-notch customer service. They are the best in the business and I recommend them to any of my personal friends, family, and acquaintances who are in need of a realtor.

Brendan and Chelsea are awesome to deal with. They are so easy to talk to and I would recommend them to anyone in the MD/DC metro area. Doesn't matter if you're buying or selling. They'll make it super easy.
Tony Coviello
Brendan is very helpful and has a lot of insight that we appreciated as potential homebuyers. He is super responsive to concerns but is realistic about what is appropriate and normal for the market at the time.
Dora Reineke
Don't even think about going with a different realtor! Brendan and Chelsea are the right choice! They helped us find and buy our dream home, in one month, while they were in China AND within our budget!!! :O Brendan saved us money and treated us like priority clients regardless of our income or desired location. They truly make buying a home a pleasant, joyful and rewarding experience.
Faith Pennisi
Amazing Team! These two are absolutely awesome. The level of professionalism is unmatched, I personally will contact them anytime I have real estate needs. They are friendly and proficient.
Michael Carlson
Wonderful agents to work with.. Great family run agency.
Pasquale Carannante
Caprika works to match the home buyer with the right home. A good fit ensures satisfaction for the long term. I've been impressed as they get to know each of their clients personally to find a home that meets their needs.
Eric Spear
Professional, patient, and honest! Amazing family-owned business.
Stacey DeChant
Having known Brendan & Chelsea for many years, I would highly recommend their services to any person looking to purchase, sell or rent real estate. Both Brendan & Chelsea have impeccable customer service and have the knowledge base to make the home buying/selling process both informative and fun for anyone.
Kristofer Webb
I believe that the process of buying and financing a home can be extremely stressful and Caprika Realty (Brendan and Chelsea) take the stress out of the equation. They have provided me many referrals to assist with financing for their purchasers and there is never a client who is not well informed and ecstatic with their experience. For that fact I have in turn referred them, clients :)
Lori Wilson
To say that Caprika Realty (the lovely and talented, Brendan and Chelsea Spear) went above and beyond for me, is a grievous understatement. They provided unparalleled service and compassion during my tough, tough short sale ordeal. I had never sold a house before, let alone dealt with a short sale so having their expert team guide me along this process was truly a godsend! My home sale had so many difficult issues, I really didn't think that I'd avoid foreclosure. Especially after reading about how impossible the banks make it for sellers to short sale their home. However, I'm happy to report that Brendan and Chelsea were able to navigate each and every problem that arose and thanks to them we were ultimately able to sell my house. Therefore, If you're in the market to buy or sell a home, you will be doing yourself a favor by choosing Caprika Realty!!
Katie Fuerst
I just wanted to say thank you to Chelsea and Brendan Spear, I haven't purchased from you yet...keyword yet...but I appreciate the upkeep and professionalism of your lenders and business partners. They have kept up with me and we are working together to get the best outcome for me and my home buying plans! I am excited. Thanks again. :-) Have a great week. HAPPY HOMEOWNER UPDATE :-) Now that I have a second to sit still, I can't even begin to tell you how amazing my experience was with Caprika Realty. Brendan Spear and Chelsea Spear are not only amazing people but Fantastic realtors and business professionals. Those that know me, know I don't recommend or co-sign on to many things but I stand behind them 1000%. God truly worked miracles during this entire process right down to the last minute and leading me to them was where He stared. I don't have enough time or words to tell the testimony of the entire process, but if you want to know to inbox me lol! Overall Caprika Realty gets an A++++++++++ from me! Make sure to like their page and contact them when your ready to buy, sell or rent :-)

Professional and personable, exactly what I was looking for in realtors. Highly recommended!

Couldn't have asked for a better experience buying our house! Not only did they help us with our recent purchase, they helped us find our rental a few years back!
Brandon Andrews
Super helpful, fabulous people!

I was so lucky to have Kim Kash as my listing agent. She guided me through the process of selling my home with competence, expertise, and knowledge of how to handle every situation. It took only two months to get the house ready to sell, put it on the market, contract with a buyer, and close.
zuser20170922171720362
We wholeheartedly recommend Kim Kash. She has expertly guided us through the buying and selling process. She was extremely helpful, patient and knowledgable helping us look for our ideal house and then found a buyer for ours faster than we could imagine. Very accessible and quick to respond, she went above and beyond to assist us and make our buying and selling experiences smooth sailing. Her local knowledge and connections came in handy often. We are grateful for Kim and Caprika Realty for helping us find our new family home.
leisnham
Kim found the house that was just right for me and showed me things that could be done to make the house fit my needs even more. She was very patient with me throughout the entire process and I'm not sure I could have gotten through it all without her help.
baysoxfan
Candice worked with us for over a year to help us find the right house for our growing family and help us sell our home. She was patient and took the time to educate us about the home buying and selling process along the way. She went to look at houses for us when we couldn't make it and she would open her schedule at the drop of a hat for us. She was there for us every step of the way and couldn't have made the process more seamless. We spent so much time together that Candice became a friend! We look forward to our next get together at our new home! We are so grateful for Candice helping us find our forever home. I can't recommend her enough for your next home buying endeavor.

We moved to Maryland in May 2019, in the middle of a meteoric and insanely difficult housing market for buyers (still rising as of ten months later). We contacted Kim Kash initially based on positive online reviews, and couldn’t have been more satisfied with the process. While the process of home buying was much more difficult than We'd imagined, based on the levels of competitiveness, Kim gave us excellent guidance, unflagging availability, and deep knowledge about a really wide range of homes that we looked at. Particular high points were helping us extricate ourselves from a seller who ended up behaving in a really sketchy manner after we’d made an offer, and in helping us find ways to make competitive offers in a market where we were regularly outbid by many tens of thousands over the asking prices. I hope we’re in our new home for a long time, but if we were to move, We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Kim Kash again or give her anything but the highest recommendation...Kim is the best...
salmabegum1212200
Michael was extremely helpful, attentive, and patient throughout our long home buying process. We wanted the perfect house and after 10 long months and approximately 70 houses later we found it! Mike was amazing at narrowing down exactly what we imagined and made it happen. We couldn’t be happier in our new home and we owe a lot of that to Michael Vakas. He’s one of the best out there and I’d recommend him to anyone that is looking for their dream home.
mwirth86
Brendan and Kristen were absolutely amazing! They are really knowledgeable about general trends as well as local trends. Admittedly, I had a tough house to sell but these two were super aggressive in marketing and staging the home and we ended up selling for a reasonable price.
JMF8675309
We had the pleasure of using Caprika for a second time! We purchased a house with the help of Brendan and his team. We were, again, impressed with his professionalism and most importantly, honesty. Buying a house is so stressful, but we knew Brendan would be able to help us through every step of the process. We highly recommend Brendan and his amazing staff, you won’t be disappointed.
Barbaracmiller
Brendan helped my best friend and I secure a place with ease. I felt well-informed and educated during the entire process (which can be overwhelming for 1st time homebuyers like ourselves), but to be honest, we never felt overwhelmed when working with Brendan and Caprika Realty. Service was A+ and I would encourage anyone to use Brendan and his team.
Andrew Parr
My wife and I were so impressed with Kim Kash. As first time home buyers, we came in knowing very little about the home buying process. Kim was extremely knowledgeable, honest, and reassuring throughout the whole process (including intimate knowledge of Greenbelt and the GHI coop we were looking to buy in). We ended up with our dream home and I give Kim all the credit for that
Zuser20180113153922941
The best of the best. The Caprika realty team is phenomenal, they're all super helpful and they always respond to texts, calls, or emails very quickly. Buying or selling a house can be pretty stressful, but the Caprika folks go out of their way to make it go as smoothly and as calmly as possible. Thank you Brendan, Chelsea, and Kristen, you are awesome!!
Daniel Sidwell
Kim was absolutely fabulous. From early on in the process, she was responsive and helpful. She priced the home appropriately and was able to get two offers in two days. She worked with a stager to get our home ready to sell. Although we put a lot of sweat equity into our home to make it ready to sell, Kim was ready and willing to provide guidance every step of the way. I would recommend Kim highly!
Marygutwein
Brendan was recommended by my children when we started searching for our forever home. It wasn't easy since we wanted a horse farm. Brendan was up to the challenge and we are now happily living the farm life. Brendan answered every question and made the experience of buying this home and selling our other home a stressless experience!
Philandottie
Great experience with Caprika Realty, selling my house and buying a new house. They are extremely easy to communicate with and very responsive. I really appreciate all the guidance I got, and was happy with all parts of the process. For a lot of the big decisions, Brendan would lay out different options and make sure to understand what my goals were to choose the best plan for me.
Drewbacca
Mike was instrumental to our family moving to Maryland. Without his help, we would still be in Nebraska. He worked with us on a tight timeline including weekends and last minute notice. He was on top of every single detail and protected our interests throughout the entire home buying process. But, most importantly, we trust Mike. He’s a great guy. He didn’t just help us buy a house. He helped us discover a new community and he became our first new friend in Maryland.
Shevano78
Brendan was amazing to work with. He spent at least two full hours walking with us through our home and talking about what should be done and how he would bring us the best deal possible. This was before we even decided to hire him! Our decision to go with him was both easy and the best thing we could ever have done. Throughout the entire process he was super responsive and made sure we were aware of every detail. I can’t think of a time it took him more than a few minutes to get back to us, even when he was camping! We were such nervous nellies and he really did a great job of assuaging our fears. We felt that he treated us the same as if he were selling a multi million dollar beach house and we are so happy that we found him. He will be the best realtor you ever work with and it shows.
RPHJ
We had such a great experience purchasing our home with the help of Kim Kash. Kim brought energy, enthusiasm, and professionalism to every task and kept us informed on every milestone. Keep in mind we were traveling overseas through the majority of the transaction, and Kim made sure we understood each step and made all the deadlines. She made it all look easy.
Baldaufs
Mike is devoted to his work and clients. My experience with him was 100% life changing and a dream come true. I still go to him for professional guidance and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
Zuser20170605220036674
Kim was knowledgeable, helpful, diligent, low-pressure, and most importantly, listened carefully to what I was looking for and helped me find a place in my budget that met every single one of my requirements. I could not be happier with the service I received and my awesome new place.
Jennifererrick
We had a great experience selling our house with Brendan, Chelsea and their team at Caprika. They were helpful, knowledgeable, reassuring and professional every step of the way. We bought our first house with them five years ago, and then sold it recently so we could do an international move. We would buy or sell with them again in a heart beat and would happily recommend them to our friends and family.
Csimkanin
Great guy to work with, knowledgeable and professional! We were working with a very tight schedule and Brendan and his team were able to accommodate. Moving and buying can be very stressful, Brendan was very good at communicating with the seller and relaying the information. I would definitely use it again.
MarcusBlanchard
Dimitri was a very good buyer's advocate and has excellent negotiation skills. I felt very comfortable with him as a broker. I would definitely work with Dimitri again if I were to buy, sell, or rent a property.
Jca6647279
Brendan, Kristen, and the whole Caprika Realty team were a dream come true! From our very first visit with Brendan where he explained the whole buying and selling process in great detail, to finding us the perfect home for our family, to selling our townhouse...everything was perfect! While looking for a home to buy, Brendan was so patient with our list of must-haves and we never felt pressured or rushed. Kristen was extremely helpful with all the behind the scenes work and answered all my endless questions! Selling our townhome was a bit more of a process- but Brendan was right there every step of the way, calling weekly to check-in and give us updates and advice. Brendan, Kristen, and the whole team- thank you for making one of the most stressful processes so painless!
User80311955
Excellent experience using Mike Vakas from beginning to end. In a world where good customer service is hard to come by, Mike Vakas goes above and beyond to ensure you have outstanding customer service throughout. If I could give him a thousand stars, I would. Mike Vakas worked tirelessly even when things got stressful to make our dream property a reality. He is 100% trustworthy, kind, hardworking, and professional. You are very blessed if Mike Vakas is your real estate agent!
Klink611
Mike is a true professional that really cares about his clients. You can tell that he truly loves his job and will stop at nothing to make sure we were satisfied. He walked my father thru every step of the way from beginning to end. I would certainly recommend him to all of my friends and family. Choose him, he will make it happen for you and your family. I will definitely be doing business with him again in the future!!
Zuser20170218145918438
Kim Kash was wonderful. She was patient, anticipated all of my questions and concerns, and was extremely responsive throughout the buying process. Thank you!
Philipmlarkin
Brendan Spear and Kim Kash were the Caprika team that guided us through the selling experience. Without exception, they kept us regularly informed of progress by showing the house and gave us excellent feedback from comments by potential buyers. They gave us first-rate advice on how to present the house for sale so it would show the best. The amount of attention they gave to our concerns helped us tremendously in being at peace with the progress of the marketing effort. We have twice before sold houses as our family grew and our needs changed. But never have we been so pleased with the selling experience as we have with Brendan and Kim.
Cassnjim1964
Kristen was very eager to assist me. She not only responded immediately when I reached out to her, but she was also touching base with me, as well on a daily basis during the process. She was knowledgeable, efficient and genuine. I would recommend Kristen and Caprika To anyone for a pleasurable, easy going house buying experience. Thank you, Kristen!!
Jguerin1988
I enthusiastically recommend Caprika Realty. Brendan and the Caprika team were attentive, personable, thorough, thoughtful, efficient, and accommodating. They’re really attuned to the emotional dimension of buying a house; they provided me with the most individualized, comfortable service I could have hoped for. The experience of buying with them was super smooth because they work hard to eliminate as much of the stress as possible. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the Caprika team.
User939228769
Brenden and Chelsea are simply amazing. When we found a property that we were extremely interested in, they had us out the next morning for a showing and under contract the next day. They were there to answer all of questions, calm us down when we got a little too anxious, and prepare us for every step along the way. Not to mention that we chose one of the most complicated properties out there, as it happened to fall in 2 states! Brenden and Chelsea weren’t phased, and had all the right resources standing by to help us close on time. They truly have a phenomenal team.
Zuser20180213215311729
Our experience with Brendan and Chelsea started 2 years ago when they were recommended through friends to help us find a rental closer to work. Over the two year period, we would occasionally email questions about the real estate market and always received a timely response. When we finally were ready to start looking for our new home Brendan and Chelsea were there every steps of the way. Their business isn't just a 9-5. Due to our work schedules, the best time for us to talk was in the evening after our kids were in bed. Brendan and Chelsea understand the dynamics of having a young family and were always ready to talk. Our home buying process was quite enjoyable. Their knowledge of all aspects of the market helped us feel completely at ease when looking at houses as well as when we placed an offer. This process was as stress-free as possible because we had a great team ready to help guide us every step of the way. We highly recommend them to anyone we know looking for a real estate agent!
User73993915
Brendan is great to work with. He is knowledgeable, personable and has high ethical standards. He and his team made selling a smooth and pleasant process.
Zuser20170123100153250
Kristen was incredible in helping us find a rental! She was extremely responsive and advocated for us every step of the way. We will absolutely work with her when we are ready to buy!!!
Alexandra Dupree
My recent experience with Mrs. Kim Kash after inquiring about potentially selling my home was excellent. Understand the market and the value can at times be overwhelming. But after having the opportunity to meet and discuss this matter with Mrs. Kash, I now have complete confidence and understanding on what to expect in this process when I am ready to sell. She is extremely knowledgeable and also very responsive when it comes to answering any of your questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone out there who is in search of a great realtor. You will not be disappointed!
B Nick3
Mike was recommended to us by our daughter and son-in-law who were thrilled with the level of service he had provided them in finding a home last year. I was myself a Realtor for many years so I have a ton of experience in the buying and selling of homes and I found Mike to be as good as they get in this business. He was always on the lookout for our best interests and very diligent in following through on things. He was readily available when we needed him and was an absolute delight to work with through our whole process. Without question I would use Mike again and recommend him to others.
Peter A Wierenga
Rumor has it that buying a home for the first time can be a very stressful event. Taking this notion into consideration when starting out was pretty alarming. Not only is it stressful buying a home, but it is twice as stressful buying a home in a state you don’t live in. Mike Vakas, has proven this rumor to be nothing more than just a rumor. One of the first steps in buying a home is finding a real estate agent that you can trust. People say that you have to go through multiple agents until you find the right agent for the purchase of your home. Once Mike and I met I didn’t want to deal with anyone else. Mike was truly AMAZING from the first hello until the time of congratulations! Thanks again Mike! P.S. Mike Vakas NEVER drops the ball!
Mario Herrera
Betsy is a wonderful agent. Friendly, attentive, considerate, and incredibly hard working. She responded to our needs consistently and promptly, even after working hours ceased. I plan to seek her services for any future housing contracts. 10/10, would highly recommend.
Kathryn Appell
Mike was an excellent realtor for us, and helped us negotiate a fairly complicated house purchase that included a 203k construction loan that we used to renovate our new home. He was responsive and knowledgeable, and his patience with the process and the various parties was pretty impressive. He was also able to provide us with really helpful advice about how to structure and negotiate a construction loan. In the end, we netted $100k in immediate equity after we purchased the house. We would definitely use Mike again.
Annmay99
When it came time to sell my condo in Germantown I turned to Brendan and Chelsea at Caprika Realty again to handle the sale. This is the second time I have used Caprika to sell a property. They are the BEST choice for handing the sale of your property. I cannot say enough about how they went beyond my expectations. They are dedicated, enthusiastic and super knowledgeable about the real estate market. I followed Brendan's suggestions for putting the finishing touches to my property. Little things like changing the door hardware really made a huge difference. Brendan was always available to answer my question and allay my anxieties. My condo sold in 4 days. Thanks Caprika for another amazing home sale.
Suzanne Norris0
Betsy was wonderful to work with!!! Couldn’t have been an easier process. She was three steps ahead through my entire home buying experience. She took the time to explain all the details and made sure I understood everything.
Buckracks1
Mike made our home buying experience painless, found us not just a house but found us a home. We had a very tight budget and wanted a lot for that budget and Mike made it happen. He really took his time , made sure we stayed in contact everyday. Mike really was blessing to our home buying experience.
Terryalton21
Mike was very patient with us during our home buying experience, very knowledgeable on the local areas & an expert at seeing the client's needs. He was honest and his opinion really did matter to us when buying our home. I highly recommend him. Thanks Mike! We LOVE our new home!
Zuser20151119192444908
Micheal Vakas is AWESOME!!! Very knowledgeable, attentive, and efficient. No question went unanswered and he walked us through every step of the home buying process, which as first time home buyers was well needed and a relief. Made our home search and buying process enjoyable. He was very flexible and accommodating of our work schedules making himself available at times that worked best for us even if he had to work late. With a new construction home we wanted to skip out on having a home inspection because we thought what could possibly be wrong? However Mike strongly suggested to have one done to ensure that all was correct with the new build. Surprisingly, there were a few things that required fixing. Mike was a BIG help by actively contacting the listing agent, builder, and home inspector to make certain that all repairs were completed. He really went the extra mile and took the stress off of us without asking. You can tell he really cares and has the home buyers best interest. FIVE stars hands down. I wouldn't recommend anyone else, coming from someone who had a bad experience with a previous agent.
Alexisflanagan2016
Micheal made the home buying process a breeze for me. Being a first time home buyer I was a little nervous in the beginning but he really did put my mind at ease through it all. I told him what I needed and he delivered quickly and with my best intentions in mind. Easy to talk to, trustworthy, and reliable. I would absolutely recommend him to all of my friends!
Danicunningham1025
Sabrina was simply a joy to work with. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to work with my hectic schedule. If you’re looking for a realtor who will find you the right home at the best price, then Sabrina Solis is the realtor that you need.
BPLEASANT1
I would recommend Sabrina for anyone looking into buying a new home (especially first-time homebuyers). She was always available to answer my questions and did her due diligence by making sure I was comfortable with the whole process. I can’t thank her enough for making this experience as stress-free as possible!
Jessica Haddad
Sabrina worked hard and quick to find a place before we moved to the area. It took a load off our plate so we had one less thing to worry about while in the process of moving. She also negotiated a place we were in love with (our new home now) so that we could have it even though we couldn't move I right away.
User00522720
Brendan and Chelsea were amazing to work with! We had so many questions and they were always quick and thorough to answer all of them! They have great ideas for helping with getting your home ready to sell and we're so supportive! Our house sold after one showing and it was because of their amazing help!
User73676707
We could not be happier with our home buying and selling experience with Caprika Realty. Brendan and Chelsea are both professional and great at what they do! Brendan advised which home improvements would give us the best return on the sale of our house and what areas not to waste precious time and money on. I have no doubt that we got a top notch offer thanks to their advice and the amazing pictures Chelsea took when marketing our listing. We felt like they were always there to answer our questions and were very flexible with making time to help us find the right home. I'm confident that Brendan's excellent negotiation skills saved us thousands of dollars and helped us get a great deal on our dream home. Brendan's years of experience in the real estate market are evident when it comes to the stressful negotiation part of the home buying/selling process. With his savvy advice, we always felt we were making the right decisions in submitting and/or accepting offers and counter offers. Choosing a relator to help you navigate the real estate market is a huge decision and we absolutely recommend Caprika Realty.
Mtayag1
Very friendly and helpful throughout the selling and buying process. He helped explain the process and quickly answered my questions or resolved issues that came up. Highly recommend working with Brendan and his team at Caprika Realty!
User10829196
I cannot recommend Caprika Realty more highly. Brendan Spear is extremely professional and was always available via text, phone, or email whenever I had a question or concern. Brendan helped make the daunting process of buying a house smooth and relatively painless. I appreciate all the attention he gave me. I love my new house!! Thank you Brendan Spear and Caprika Realty!!
Beijaflor1
I would definitely recommend Caprika Realty. Brendan is great! He listened us about what we were looking for in a house, and paid attention to what we used our living space for and why we said we wanted what we did. He found a perfect-for-us house in under a month - including features we hadn't realized we wanted. When we were getting ready to sell our previous house, he was an excellent adviser on what improvements would be worth doing and what we shouldn't bother with. He was quick to respond to questions, whether via email, text or phone call.
Lilifreid
I have been working with Caprika and Brendan and Chelsea for many years as a home stager. They are both extremely knowledgable and responsive to their clients and their listings sell very quickly! I would highly recommend them!
Agoodestartdeco
I highly recommend Caprika realty to anyone who is looking to rent/sell their house in Prince George's County. They are attentive and thoughtful. Brendan was eager to help in anyway possible and we were under contract before anticipated! He continues to help even today. As first time landlords we have questions of course. Brendan goes out of his way to help us make the right decision, even if it doesn't immediately benefit him. And that's a rare thing to find. I can't imagine using anyone else!
Mjintoccia
We were recommended to Brendan by a family friend. From our first interaction, we could tell we would get along great. He isn't pushy, and tries to keep you grounded when you're just excited about buying a house! He is very knowledgable on all aspects of homeownership, relative costs/timing for future repairs, and negotiation of price and repairs with the seller. Going to open houses with him, he is able to break down the pros and cons of every home, so that you feel well informed in your decision. He advocates for you before, during, well after all the paperwork is done. We signed and moved in on Feb 8th, and 10 days later, he's still quick to respond to any and all questions we may have and help ensure the seller follows though on all agreed-upon repairs. He is so good about keeping in contact, that he went out of his way to text, call, and email us immediately while on vacation! Brendan is a wonderful person, and someone you can trust to do everything he can to help you find your perfect home.
User781476
Brendan is exceptionally great! He made me and my husband so comfortable with our home purchase decision. He takes the time to explain what you should and should not expect when purchasing a home. I would recommend anyone to Brendan. Caprika Realty ROCKS!! Thank you so much for your time and your help! We LOVE our new home!
User2928672
Brendan is a 5-star real estate agent! He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, on-time, professional, polite; he's as good as gets when it comes to real estate in my opinion. Seriously, I think he was made for this! I've dealt with several real estate agents through my last job and boy oh boy he makes them all look like amateurs and con-artists. He helped my husband and I find our first home and he also helped us get some major deals in the process. He works for you as if he were buying the house himself which speaks volumes, real customer service. The agent at the builder where we bought our house was very impressed by how he took care of my husband and I. She said there aren't too many like him and she's been in the real estate game for over 15 years. If you need a real agent, go with Brendan. And if this is your first time buying a home and you don't known diddly about maintaining a home, hire Brendan. Can't say enough good things about this guy!
User153148
Brendan was a great person to work with in selling my home. He walked me through each step of the process. He was very honest with me up front and made great recommendations to help me sell my home for its maximum value. I will definitely be going back to Brendan when I'm ready to buy a new place in the next year.
Najla Haddad84
My husband and I sold our previous house and bought our dream home with the help of Brendan and Chelsea. We could not have been happier with the service they gave us. During our initial meeting with Brendan, he explained how they help their clients, took time to understand our goals and what was important to us, and gave us suggestions for how to add value to our previous house before putting it on the market. Those suggestions helped us get serious offers on our home in only a few days. We loved the individual attention that Brendan and Chelsea provided. They were incredibly attentive and really took the time to ease any concerns we had during the stressful time of buying and selling a home. Brendan and Chelsea helped us get into our dream home and we would recommend them to anyone who is looking for guidance in buying or selling a home.
User20850429
Brendan was hired to sell my deceased father's residence. Recognizing how difficult a process this was for the family, Brendan facilitated and/or handled all the technical aspects and gave us excellent advice on how to prepare the house for sale. And, "Wow", 60 days from listing to closing!. He kept me informed throughout the process without having to be asked for updates and was always available to answer any questions that came up. I would highly recommend Caprika Realty and would definitely use them again.

Brendan and Chelsea helped us sell our house. We couldn't have been more pleased with their hard work and dedication to us. Brendan continually kept us updated on what was going on with the listing as well as giving us all our options during the process. We always felt in control of selling our house and we have Brendan to thank for that.

Brendan was fantastic to work with. He really listened to what was important to us in a new home. His engineering background was also a huge advantage and helped us to understand what any concerns or potential issues there were and also put us at ease about things that were an easy fix. We are so happy that Brendan got us into our wonderful new home!

Brendan and Chelsea make a great team! They have helped me buy and sell a house. Its like having your best friend help you with a life changing event. They made it way easy, and walked me through everything. I would recommend Caprika Reality, and them to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent a HOME.

Caprika Realty exhibited the utmost professionalism as my seller agent for my condo sale. Given my case was sort of unique and I was living 2,000 miles away, I had MANY questions for them along the way prior to signing an agreement, and they graciously and patiently answered ALL of them. Anytime I needed more guidance on the process or in need of knowing my options, they responded swiftly and professionally. With every milestone, I received status reports as to where my case stood and if any information was outstanding. They were always honest and realistic with me about expectations and this frequency of communication was not only vital, it was reassuring at every step. Knowing I could contact them anytime was huge relief. I am beyond appreciative and deeply thankful at their commitment to a successful outcome and would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of home or looking to sell their home. You really cannot go wrong with Caprika!!

Brendan and Chelsea Spear at Caprika Realty have truly been amazing. We are a military family and did most of the house-buying process out of state, which isn't very common and a lot of realtors would have had trouble with. Brendan gave us a 2 hour video walk-through tour, pointing out all kinds of things that we would never have noticed on our own. He was ready to send us all the paperwork we needed and had a program ready for us to virtually sign documents. There was a lot of paperwork that we went over online and over the phone and Brendan and Chelsea always made themselves available to answer questions and help us through the process. They also recommended a lender and title company who also turned out to be great. Brendan and Chelsea know the area so well, anything you might need done out here, they know someone to help you. I recommend them to everyone I meet who mentions that they might someday be interested in buying a house. You just can't get better than these two and I am honestly so glad that we found them.

We bought a short sale through Brendan. He did an awesome job for us thoroughly explaining the complicated process. His advice was spot on in every way. We would absolutely recommend Caprika Realty as Brendan makes a stressful process seem like a walk in the park. Great job!

I hope I can adequately describe how impressed I was with Brendan and Chelsea at Caprika. Just 100% dedication to me the entire time! They are enthusiastic, knowledgeable, intelligent, and most importantly: GENUINE.
I had a unique situation in that my offer was under a contingency...at some point, that contingency was not looking favorable. Enter Caprika with not only a plan but the ability to negotiate my offer to get the necessary time I needed. I honestly thought I lost my shot at my dream home, but Brendan was indefatigable, confident, and knew all was not lost.
And he was right. Of course, he was. Here I sit now in my beautiful new home...thanks to him and Chelsea. I don't anticipate moving any time soon, but if that happens, I will be contacting Caprika and only Caprika for sure!

Caprika Realty made our first home buying experience extremely smooth and kept us at ease throughout the entire process. From the moment we began looking at houses on the ground all the way to the day of the settlement, they were very proactive in answering any questions that we might have and extremely responsive to our concerns.

What was especially impressive to us was the personal touch they put on the whole process. We began the home buying experience by them sitting us down and walking us through the whole process from day 1 to settlement day.

Their knowledge regarding the area is exceptional. They knew what areas were developing, where the good schools were, etc. Because of their in-depth knowledge we were able to make an informed decision about where to make our first home purchase and now we couldn't be happier.

I was a little unsure at first when my sister suggested that we use Caprika Realty to sell our mom's home. I had only dealt with the big national companies in the past, and up to that point, had always thought that it was best to go with a big company. After our initial consultation I had much more confidence that these guys really knew the area and knew what they were doing.

Brendan took the time to explain every step of the process and helped us to make informed decisions along the way. From setting the initial selling price, to staging the house for best curb appeal, to how we should deal with counter-offers and appraisal issues, Brendan was always a quick phone call, text or email away. I really value good communication and Caprika delivered.

To say that Caprika Realty (the lovely and talented, Brendan and Chelsea Spear) went above and beyond for me, is a grievous understatement. They provided unparalleled service and compassion during my tough, tough short sale ordeal. I had never sold a house before, let alone dealt with a short sale so having their expert team guide me along this process was truly a godsend! My home sale had so many difficult issues, I really didn't think that I'd avoid foreclosure. Especially after reading about how impossible the banks make it for sellers to short sale their home. However, I'm happy to report that Brendan and Chelsea were able to navigate each and every problem that arose and thanks to them we were ultimately able to sell my house. Therefore, If you're in the market to buy or sell a home, you will be doing yourself a favor by choosing Caprika Realty!!

Caprika Realty was referred to me by an excellent realtor I had worked with several times previously because of their expert knowledge of the area I was looking to purchase a home in.

I have purchased several homes before so I’m familiar with the process and generally don’t feel like I need a lot of involvement from my realtor, but this particular home purchase was of a type that I had never gone through before, a 203(k). I had a lot of questions and was in a time crunch to meet all the loan requirements in order to close quickly. Caprika Realty was always available and promptly responded to my e-mails, texts and calls with useful information – even on Christmas Eve. The breadth of knowledge Caprika Realty provided was impressive. Whereas other realtors are only able to tell you obvious information such as the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, Caprika Realty was also able to point out minute details about the property and/or surrounding area to allow you to make a more informed decision.

Since I purchase homes to remodel I constantly am examining the real estate market and have always felt knowledgeable enough to make decisions on my own, however, I now also trust the opinions of Caprika Realty – they have proven to be accurate and always in my best interest. I truly feel that Caprika Realty worked hard to give me what I was looking for – from start to closing.

In addition, during the process, I was in immediate need of a variety of professional services and Caprika Realty provided several references that proved essential to securing the property. I took advantage of a contractor and lender they recommended and everything has worked out amazingly.

I plan on purchasing and selling more homes in the future and will use Caprika Realty again due to their high level of customer service and their ability and willingness to go above and beyond in sharing their top to bottom knowledge of the entire home acquisition process. Caprika Realty is an exceptional company that I highly recommend.

I believe that the process of buying and financing a home can be extremely stressful and Caprika Realty (Brendan and Chelsea) take the stress out of the equation. They have provided me many referrals to assist with financing for their purchasers and there is never a client who is not well informed and exstatic with their experience. For that fact I have in turn referred them clients :)
Lori Wilson
Brendan and Chelsea Spear are hands down THEE best realtors one could have. I am a first time homeowner and I needed someone who was knowledgable, patient, understanding, and a great teacher who could inform me about the home buying process. They both are absolutely amazing and were extremely patient. I never felt alone and guiding me to the PERFECT house! They are extremely fast and responsive to emails and calls. I could send an email at 11pm thinking I won't hear from them until the next day but I get quick emails! They truly care about their clients. I love that about them. I was deeply saddened when my home buying process was over. Trust me, you will not regret selecting them as realtors.

My husband and I were very nervous first-time home buyers. We had a million questions and wanted someone who could "hold our hands" through the entire process. Brendan did that for us and more. He started by meeting with us to discuss our goals. He was able to recommend a fantastic lender. From looking at houses, to putting in offers, counter offering, and so on, Brendan constantly demonstrated his expertise. He is very knowledgable about the real estate market, but he was also knowledgable about houses and the work they would need. He was able to give us advice but leave us space to make our own decisions. When the buyer was hesitant to accept our counter offer, he used his negotiation skills and talked her into it! Once we put an offer in on the house, things couldn't have been easier. Brendan took care of everything for (found us a great inspector, took care of all the paperwork, etc). When we had questions, Brendan responded immediately. Even now, well after closing on the house, we can still contact Brendan with our questions. From start to finish Brendan made the house buying process exciting, smooth, and easy. We couldn't have asked for a better realtor and recommend him whole heartedly, without any reservations.

Brendan and Chelsea are absolutely incredible. They both know what they are doing, which is great, but that's just a small part of the package. They make themselves available whenever you need them, they are fast (which is a huge benefit in this market), and they look out for what's best for their client. They don't just try to make a sale. Brendan actually pointed out why one house wasn't what we were looking for, and we are so thankful for that. The house we did get is PERFECT for us and it was a battle to get. I can't tell you how many times I woke up in the morning and saw an email from Brendan at 1am. I swear they don't sleep but you would never know it with the quality they provide. I cannot recommend them enough. Stop looking for a realtor because you found the best you will ever get.
User1914184
From beginning to end working with Brendan and Chelsea was a positive experience. Their knowlege of the market was spot on and by following their advice my house sold in less than ten days. An awesome realtor team that knows how to get the job done all the while making you feel as though you are their only client. Highly recommended!

Our home buying experience with Brendan and Chelsea could not have been better. The service was top notch, their knowledge extensive, and responsiveness outstanding. They truly make you feel like you are the only client and are always available to answer questions or concerns. I would recommend Caprika Realty to anyone for all their realty needs without any reservation whatsoever.
Dutchwinter
Brendan and Chelsea are the right choice! They helped us find and buy our dream house within a month, while in China and saved us money! Their experience helped us beat out two other offers on the same house and stay within budget! They truly are wonderful people to know!
User070580
Our home in Greenbelt, Maryland, was a challenge to sell in this environment. Brendan and Chelsea identified the unique, "saleable" aspects of our energy-efficient home, and mounted a marketing campaign based on the notion of "Going Green in Greenbelt", a catchy phrase that attracted local interest among the environmentally-conscious Greenbelt citizenry -- and in very short order, one of our neighbors bought it! All in all, a great selling experience!
Bob_spear
The founders of Caprika were part of the group that helped me purchase my new house back in 2008. I'm a bit of a pain, but they were always willing to show houses. It took 40-some houses to find what fit my needs and desires, but they never balked and happily obliged.

Closing was seemless, and thats mostly due to their diligence in ensuring everything was ready to go. I happily paid my commission on this purchase, they earned every penny.
Rdebaets
I hired Brendan Spear to help me find a house that was just right for me. It only took a few days of looking before he found the perfect house. He asked me all the right questions and he took the time to investigate matter first so as not to waste my valuable time. Brendan's attention to detail helped me fully investigate the property inside and out before making the biggest purchase of my life to this point. He practically held my hand through the closing and then turned around and sold my condo in just a couple of weeks! I was impressed with Brendan's knowledge, focus and friendly professionalism. I am currently talking with him about my next purchase.
Chirokraus
Chelsea helped me buy a home under some very specific guidelines in terms of selection. Her knowledge of the Anne Arundel County area was extensive, and she helped me sidestep a number of potentially bad deals while I found the right fit for me. She has been prompt in returning communications, forthcoming with details and idiosyncrasies that could potentially have been issues or warnings, and has been wonderful to work with. I am confident when I say that I don't think I could have found a better agent to work with.

Kim Cash at Caprika Realty exceeded my expectations.

She made it easy for me to prepare my home for sale by bringing in David Frauenheim of Besmarthome.com. The home was cleaned, renovated, and staged quickly, affordable, expertly, and it sold quickly.

Along the way, Kim kept me constantly updated and patiently explained each issue and each step. She was never dismissive of my concerns and made me feel heard. Kim is great on the customer service level and on the business level. She priced the home right, getting me the maximum profit I could while selling quickly.

She used her extensive network of community connections to find me the perfect buyer for a no hassle experience that was win-win for buyer and seller.

Caprika Reality update-
When it came time to sell my condo in Germantown I turned to Brendan and Chelsea at Caprika to handle the sale. They continue to be the best choice for handing the sale of your property. I followed the suggestions I got from Brendan for putting the finishing touches on my property. Changing the door hardware really made a huge difference. Brendan was always available to answer my question and allay my anxieties. Property sold in 4 days. Thanks Caprika for another amazing home sale. Brendan and Chelsea did such an outstanding job getting my mother's house sold. I can't offer enough praise without sounding like a paid spokesperson. The sales presentation was phenomenal, not only did they take great photos of the house and property but did a fabulous video of the house/property. Our unique property was sold and closed in less time than we had anticipated. It took 10 days for the initial contract and closing was delayed several times for a number of reasons. 2 1/2 months from listing to closing for what we anticipated to be a lengthy listing of our unique property. Brendan was right on point with his assessment of what to expect for a final sales price. He was always available to answer questions and give advise. I wouldn't think of entrusting my next sale to anyone else. Thank You Brendan & Chelsea for all your hard work

Brendan Spear helped us buy our new home. I've bought and sold half a dozen houses in several states and something is always different each time. In this case, the biggest difference wasn't the location, but the quality of the agent!

Brendan has a lot to offer a buyer, but what stood out to me is his communication, knowledge, and no-nonsense attitude. Brendan was available anytime we needed something in whatever way we needed, be it in person, text, phone, or even a Facebook message. Brendan knows real estate! Even as experienced home-buyers, we learned something from him at every step of the process--local property rules, home construction, and an extensive network of who to go to for any service we could need. Last, but definitely not least, Brendan always cut to the chase! He certainly was patient when we needed time, but when we were ready to move, there was no wasted time. And he was always ready to give us a straight-forward, honest answer to any question.

If you're looking to buy a home, look no further than Brendan Spear and Caprika Realty. Without a doubt, he'll be our first call when we're ready to sell.

Brendan, Kristen, and the whole Caprika Realty team were a dream come true! From our very first visit with Brendan where he explained the whole buying and selling process in great detail, to finding us the perfect home for our family, to selling our townhouse...everything was perfect! While looking for a home to buy, Brendan was so patient with our list of must-haves and we never felt pressured or rushed. Kristen was extremely helpful with all the behind the scenes work and answered all my endless questions! Selling our townhome was a bit more of a process- but Brendan was right there every step of the way, calling weekly to check in and give us updates and advice. What I loved most was how easy Brendan was to get ahold of- text, facebook, email... It didn't matter! I don't think we would have gotten our home if he didn't schedule showings so quickly. Brendan, Kristen, and the whole team- thank you for making one of the most stressful processes so painless! We highly recommend Caprika Realty!
Kelly M.
Very knowledgeable and responsive. Easy to get ahold of via phone, email, or text. No BS which is hard to find and they actually care about you and your listing. Rare gem of a team in the real estate world.
Kelcey M.
Kim Kash is very professional and knowledgeable about the field, I recommend working with her for your real estate needs!

Brendan and Chelsea are the owners and operators of Caprika Realty and they take pride in their work.

Although I didn't complete the home-buying process with them, this review is based on my preliminary experience while house hunting. You will get top notch customer service and extensive analysis on the area you're looking at. You'll also get honesty and won't necessarily be told what you want to hear. This is a beautiful thing in a business that can sometimes be quite unethical. Having worked in the mortgage industry years ago, I experienced this firsthand.

I would recommend Caprika Realty for anyone looking to purchase a home in the MD/VA/DC area!
Nicole R.
Brendan and Chelsea were amazing to work with! We had so many questions and they were always quick and thorough to answer all of them! They have great ideas for helping with getting your home ready to sell and were so supportive. Our house sold after one showing and it was because of their expertise!

Working with Brendan and his team made selling and buying as straightforward as possible. Super grateful for Brendan's explanations and support throughout each step. Everyone we worked with were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend Caprika Realty!!!

Brendan is a 5-star real estate agent! He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, on-time, professional, polite; he's as good as gets when it comes to real estate in my opinion. Seriously, I think he was made for this! I've dealt with several real estate agents through my last job and boy oh boy he makes them all look like amateurs and con-artists. He helped my husband and I find our first home and he also helped us get some major deals in the process. He works for you as if he were buying the house himself which speaks volumes, real customer service. The agent at the builder where we bought our house was very impressed by how he took care of my husband and I. She said there aren't too many like him and she's been in the real estate game for over 15 years. If you need a real agent, go with Brendan. And if this is your first time buying a home and you don't known diddly about maintaining a home, hire Brendan. Can't say enough good things about this guy!
Yolanda M.
We worked with Brendan to recently purchase our new home. Brendan is extremely knowledgeable about the local market. We always felt like he was looking out for our best interest. He never seemed to just be trying to make a sale. He was honest and upfront throughout the entire process. He was very responsive and was very flexible to work home showings around our schedule. I would recommend Caprika Realty without reservation to anyone needing a top notch agent.
Michelle H.
Brendan is exceptionally great! He made me and my husband so comfortable with our home purchase decision. He takes the time to explain what you should and should not expect when purchasing a home. I would recommend anyone to Brendan. Caprika Realty ROCKS!! Thank you so much for your time and your help! We LOVE our new home!

Brendan Spear and the team at Caprika Realty are the people you want when it's time to buy or sell a house. We're currently living overseas, and we just settled yesterday on the ideal house for us to call home when we're back in the States. Brendan handled the whole transaction smoothly. Even from 8,000 miles away, I felt confident that everything was under control. Brendan always does what he says he's going to do, on time and with good cheer. Caprika Realty is our real estate company from now on.
Kim K.
Caprika Realty is boutique real estate service at it's finest. Just closed on my house with Brendan and I cannot say enough good things about him. He is very attentive and helpful, such a joy to work with. Not to be outdone Amanda is great and stepped up whenever Brendan dared to place his attention on another client :). Many many thanks to Brendan, Amanda, Chelsea and Leo!
Stacey M.
I had the very distinct pleasure of being Caprika's first closed sale and first satisfied customer, about a year ago. Chelsea and Brendan were exceptionally thorough and a true pleasure to work with. I had some very specific requirements in finding the home that fit both my price range and location, and with their tireless help, my homebuying experience was as rewarding as possible. Very highly recommended. I only wish I had seen these folks on Yelp sooner so I could tell everyone!

Brendan and Chelsea are a agreat real estate team, together they provide the best customer service, professional real estate knowledge and also make the entire house hunting experience fun. We had been through 2 realtors already and could not trust them on their part-time realtor knowledge base or their pushy selfish ways. We finally ventured away from the big name companies with their cookie cutter boxed sales tactics and thankfully found Caprika Realty. They were personable, honest and most importantly genuinely care about real estate full time. Anyone looking for a great realtor with a 'can do' attitude should sit down and speak to Brendan first before signing off with a potentially pretentious realtor. As a customer you have options, be sure to explore them and you will be a happy home owner like us!
Nancy C.
Brendan and Chelsea are entrenched in the community....I would call them the " Brand Ambassadors" of the area! They do their research and work 24/7 to help you achieve your goal of selling/buying/renting. They spend countless hours learning about the local schools, restaurants, stores, and interesting sites in your area of interest....Honest, Friendly, Integrity, and High Work Ethic are just a few words that describe this team.....
Don Layfield
Brendan and Chelsea have put together an incredible team. With them, you get far more than just a realtor. They make your happiness their mission - through every single step of the home buying and home selling process, we felt taken care of, valued, and prioritized. That is hard to find. These guys show up with love and compassion for their clients. Your ‘d be remiss to go anywhere else!
Amy Trotter
We could not be happier with our home buying and selling experience with Caprika Realty. Brendan and Chelsea are both professional and great at what they do! Brendan advised which home improvements would give us the best return on the sale of our house and what areas not to waste precious time and money on. I have no doubt that we got a top notch offer thanks to their advice and the amazing pictures Chelsea took when marketing our listing.

We felt like they were always there to answer our questions and were very flexible with making time to help us find the right home. I'm confident that Brendan's excellent negotiation skills saved us thousands of dollars and helped us get a great deal on our dream home. Brendan's years of experience in the real estate market are evident when it comes to the stressful negotiation part of the home buying/selling process. With his savvy advice, we always felt we were making the right decisions in submitting and/or accepting offers and counter offers.

Choosing a relator to help you navigate the real estate market is a huge decision and we absolutely recommend Caprika Realty.
Mike Tayag
Brendan and his team were extremely helpful through the entire process of selling our house! Due to Brendan’s advice and recommendations, beautiful photos and video, our house sold in 48 hours. Through the entire process up to settlement they were available for questions and guidance.
Jeanne Thornton Allender
Brendan took such good care of us when we moved up to Maryland from North Carolina. We were first time home buyers, and he was patient and thorough in guiding us through the process. I would recommend him without reservation!!
Emalee Quickel
Working with Caprika Realty was awesome. Brendan was super helpful and professional throughout the entire process. He helped explain everything as it was happening and was very knowledgeable about everything house related. He even dealt with a difficult seller and never missed a beat.

Brendan is a people-first realtor; he was never overbearing and I never felt pressure to make a decision I wasn’t ready for. All while being available and responsive any time I had a question. His whole team was on the same page the whole time and they were all a pleasure to work with. I recommend Caprika to anyone in the area!
Scott Janik
I bought and sold my home with Caprika and whole heartedly recommend them! Brendan and Chelsea truly care about their clients and go above and beyond every single time. They helped me in a tough situation more than my friends and family were able to and even provided emotional support along the way!
Faith Kelley
Kim Kash was extremely responsive and knowledgeable about Greenbelt and GHI in particular. She was great about finding houses that fit our needs and budget and she helped me find a house that had everything we were looking for below our budget! As a first time home buyer I had a lot of questions and Kim was great at breaking things down so definitely recommend her for first timers.
Evelyn Reisenwitz
We sold our previous house and bought our dream home with the help of Brendan and Chelsea. We could not have been happier with the service they gave us. During our initial meeting with Brendan, he explained how they help their clients, took time to understand our goals and what was important to us, and gave us suggestions for how to add value to our previous house before putting it on the market. Those suggestions helped us get serious offers on our home in only a few days. We loved the individual attention that Brendan and Chelsea provided. They were incredibly attentive and really took the time to ease any concerns we had during the stressful time of buying and selling a home. Brendan and Chelsea helped us get into our dream home and we would recommend them to anyone who is looking for guidance in buying or selling a home.
Becky Clapper
They care about the community, they care about your family and they have your best interest at heart. You can feel it through the entire organization that they really want to help. You can feel that they absolutely trustworthy

Brendan, Chelsea and Amanda are an amazing team - we worked with them to find a new rental and they were patient, professional, helpful and answered all of our questions thoroughly as we went through the process. We will most certainly work with them again when we are ready to buy a house and I highly recommend them for anyone in the Annapolis/DC area!

Hands down, the best possible experience I could have had was with Brendan and Chelsea. I bought my first home in 2010 from them when they worked for another company. It was a flawless transaction. I bought my second home in 2013 from them with their new business, again flawless. I ended up selling both houses this summer with their help and it was, again, a great process. They are also serving as my realtors on a new build in DC and have proven to be flawless again. Caprika Realty stands out as a model of what a small business is all about. I highly recommend to everyone and anyone looking to buy or sell. They are honest, transparent, keep things real, and have your best interest at heart.

December 2018 Update: I can now say that I’ve had 5 incredibly successful transactions with Brendan and Chelsea! Highly recommend to anyone in the DMV! Please get your license in Alaska as that may be the next move one day! ??

Now that I have a second to sit still, I can't even begin to tell you how amazing my experience was with Caprika Realty. Brendan Spear and Chelsea Spear are not only amazing people but Fantastic realtors and business professionals. Those that know me, know I don't recommend or co-sign on to many things but I stand behind them 1000%. God truly worked miracles during this entire proces right down to the last minute and leading me to them was where He stared. I don't have enough time or words to tell the testimony of the entire process, but if you want to know inbox me lol! Overall Caprika Realty gets an A++++++++++ from me! Make sure to like their page and contact them when your ready to buy, sell or rent

Brendan and Chelsea made buying our first home a breeze. I felt supported from first contact to beyond the purchase. We’ve been in for a month and I still ask questions! They never made us feel insecure about our often rudimentary questions. The teams of people from the lenders and contractors and Home inspectors we’ve worked with at their recommendation have also been amazing. Could not speak more highly of my experience with them.

I would highly recommend anyone interested in buying or selling a home to contact Brendan and Chelsea Spear with Caprika Realty. Professional, extremely knowledgeable with a strong desire to help their clients achieve their goals.

Their advice on everything from which improvements to make in order to sell our home, to Brendan’s keen eye when out house hunting proved invaluable. Also Chelsea and her camera make your home look it’s very best and really grab the attention of potential buyers. It’s also worth mentioning that they are super patient. Brendan showed us many options and he was very understanding as we narrowed and even changed our minds several times trying to figure out what’s best for our family and our goals.

In the end I couldn’t be happier with our choice of Realtors or our new home!
