ZillowVERIFIEDDan has the highest recommendation from my wife and myself. He was thorough and knowledgeable. He kept us informed and provided detailed explainations of how he evaluated our home and of each of the issues that came up throughout the process. He had an excellent team that he worked with and had great contacts he was able to recommend for repairs and improvements to our home and for moving. We give him a 5 star, A Plus rating.

ZillowVERIFIEDI cant say enough wonderful things about my experience working with Dan Metcalf and Marc Herschkowitz of Perennial Real Estate. Dan came in during a bad situation, the passing of a loved one, and helped create order from chaos with vendor and process recommendations for how to move forward. Along the way, he brought trusted partners in to refresh the look of a very old home to help maximize sale value. When considering pricing and timing market entry, Dan demonstrated his experience and knowledge by competitively pricing the home for a quick sale well over asking! Dans professionalism, patience, knowledge of the market, and experience make him someone I would be thrilled to work with time and again!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently had the pleasure of working with Dan during the sale of our Takoma Park home and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. From the very first meeting, Dan impressed us with his expertise and genuine enthusiasm for the real estate market. Dan demonstrated an exceptional knowledge of the local housing market and provided invaluable guidance on pricing strategies, marketing techniques, and even offered suggestions to enhance the appeal of our property. Their understanding of current market trends allowed us to set a competitive and realistic asking price, resulting in a quick and successful sale. Throughout the entire process, communication was seamless. Dan promptly responded to our inquiries, providing updates and feedback. We strongly recommend Dan to anyone in need of a real estate agent to sell in TKPK and beyond. He is an absolute pleasure to work with, and his dedication and expertise will undoubtedly lead to exceptional results. If you're looking for a seamless, efficient, and successful home-selling experience, look no further than Dan!

ZillowVERIFIEDDan interacts with the TKPK and SS real eastate market like a master conductor does with the orchestra - everyhting looks, feels and sounds seamless - but though it appears intuitive, years of experience and learning underpin natural talent. From reading and responding to housing market trends, to making sure everything (and everyone) keeps calm (while within timelines and to a high standard), Dan is a laid back confident pro. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Extra bonus: he is also an amazing well educated, funny, kind, and interesting person. Long after the buy/sell process is complete, you'll find yourself missing his conversation. All around A+++

ZillowVERIFIEDChoose Dan Metcalf to sell your home! He provided excellent, turn-key service to sell our home, at our asking price, in a difficult seller's market. Whether is was home preparation, staging, open houses, or negotiating...Dan is the best!

Review for Member: Dan Metcalf
ZillowVERIFIEDDan is the only person to hire if you are selling a house in Takoma Park. His knowledge of the market is long, deep, and detailed. He knows the comps better than anyone, because he probably sold them! He knows what buyers want in this corner of the market, because he has lived here for decades and interacts with the community every day. Dan has a well-oiled process that made the sale easy. He magically made most problems -- repairs, trash removal, and so on -- disappear within a day or so through his staff and contractors. Throughout, he was dedicated to a high level of service and communication, and was eager to get the best result.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe entered our search for a suitable property to purchase with a lot of trepidation due to rapidly changing real estate market conditions and the constraints imposed by 1031 exchange regulations. However, at the end of the day the transaction went smoothly and we purchased a "dream home." While the happy result could be partly attributed to luck, Dan's deep knowledge of the local market, efficient scheduling of property viewings and expert negotiation advice were major factors in our success. This is our second very positive experience with the Finn Family Group. Should we have future real estate needs in the Washington, D.C. area we will not hesitate to engage their services again.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy home sale was unusual in many respects and I appreciated Dan's advice and help. He knows the neighborhood, the process, the industry, and many ways to work around problems. Even before I began, I knew I needed someone with more than the average amount of knowledge and expertise, and I was not disappointed.

ZillowVERIFIEDDan was amazing to work with. His extensive knowledge of and experience with the Takoma Park market was apparent from our first conversation, and his attention to detail and organization made the sale of our home stress free. Dan was friendly and quick to address any and all issues that inevitably came up. We couldn't have been happier with the entire process. Highly recommend.

ZillowVERIFIEDThe best agent! Dan helped us sell our house in Takoma Park. Hes a smart negotiator, knows the market better than anyone and his advice is superb. He was really on top of communication, available to discuss the sale and worked with us to think through tough decisions. Weve worked with many different agents in DMV and Dan was *by far* the best. Very diligent and a true professional! Highly recommend.

ZillowVERIFIEDOne of the best professionals I've ever worked with. Dan is one of the few agents who add considerable value. He got me 15% more than any other agent thought I would get. My highest recommendation

Review for Member: Dan Metcalf
ZillowVERIFIEDDan is incredible at his job. He was there for us with every logistical detail, and also held our hand through complex negotiations with the seller. He had high quality recommendations for all the service-providers we needed, from the floor-guy to contractor. Dan gave us fantastic advice when we were hesitating on next steps. I can't recommend Dan enough. If you have the opportunity to work with him, grab it!

ZillowVERIFIEDDan helped my 90 year old dad sell his house in Takoma Park and I cannot say enough good things about him. He was extremely patient with my dad and our whole family as we prepped the house for sale. His advice was spot on and his knowledge of the Takoma Park real estate market was exceptional and very detailed. He knew exactly what he was doing and we ended up selling the house in the space of a few days for well over the asking price. He handled the negotiations perfectly and he had us do just some basic work on the house to prep it for sale. If you are looking to sell a house in the Takoma Park area you need to give him a call. You will not be disappointed.

ZillowVERIFIEDDan was incredibly responsive, personable, and he and his team know the Takoma Park market better than anyone. He also helped us buy a home, helping us strategize and work through numerous issues. He's great at real estate, and he's a really nice guy as well.

ZillowVERIFIEDDan was an amazing realtor. His knowledge of the area and real estate principles in general were beyond what I could have ever expected. He was willing to incorporate our suggestions and thoughts into his process and made sure we were involved as much as we wanted to be. He was very easy to work with and helped to remove much of the stress associated with the sale of our home. I would highly recommend him.

Review for Member: Dan Metcalf
ZillowVERIFIEDDan is just excellent. His local knowledge helped price the home to sell fast - he had offers even before the opening, we closed inside of a month, and because of his negotiating skills, the house sold for more than the asking price. Responsiveness, integrity, and expertise were especially important as I had to move before the house went on the market and everything had to be conducted long distance. He did a great job, and I highly recommend him

Review for Member: Dan Metcalf
ZillowVERIFIEDDan was invaluable to us in our search for a new house and selling our house. On buying -- We had been looking for about 6 months by the time we bought and were pretty picky buyers. Dan stuck with us and kept up his enthusiasm even when we were discouraged. When we found the house of our dreams Dan helped us navigate the complexities of a competitive bidding process and made sure that we put forth our best possible offer and provided us with advice that ultimately led to us winning out over 3 other offers. We have no doubt that if we had not had Dan on our side we would not have gotten our new house. But Dan didn't stop once we bought the house, he continued to see us through the entire buying process, helped with financing and answered many questions. Dan also helped us buy our first house and negotiate a great price. On selling -- Dan helped us sell our house in less than 10 days. His advice for pricing and negotiating was extremely helpful and is likely what helped us sell so quickly. We were happy with our sales price and the extra attention he gave us during the staging, listing, open house, negotiations and closing. We highly recommend Dan if you are buying or selling!

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Dan was terrific. We needed to move quickly, and he was extremely responsive to every text, email, and call we sent his way. He was also very cool under pressure during a couple of tense negotiations, which I really appreciated. He has an amazing working knowledge of the area, and has an excellent roster of handymen, junk haulers, and other specialized help that can in very handy during our process. I can't think of a single thing he missed! He gets my highest recommendation.

Review for Member: Dan Metcalf
ZillowVERIFIEDI loved working with Dan Metcalf. He always made us feel like we were his only client, even when he knew we were "just looking" and wouldn't be able to actually buy a house until months later. We probably saw 60 houses with him. We never felt any pressure from him--in fact, sometimes he was a little too poker-faced until we starting probing him for his opinion--but it meant we never felt his recommendations were in the interest of anyone but us. He made the process of putting in an offer straight-forward, quick and easy. At one point we had spent time with him getting an offer ready, changed our minds at the last minute, and then changed our minds again REALLY at the last minute--he rolled with it all and was there when he needed us. Additionally, his knowledge of the extreme minutia of how houses are built and the entire process was vast, so we came to trust him very quickly. All of this plus he's a nice, pleasant guy who is very easy to work with. So, two thumbs up! Very happy with this experience.

ZillowVERIFIEDDan helped us sell our house and was great to work with from the very early stages of the process all the way through the close. He has expertise in the geographic area and was able to advise us how to price the house competitively. This was the first time we've sold a house and he helped us to understand the steps of the process and to negotiate a contract. He provided guidance during the inspection and appraisal process and was flexible with meeting at times later in the evening to accommodate our work schedules when needed. Very satisfied from beginning to end!

ZillowVERIFIEDIt was a pleasure to work with Dan while we sold our house. He was able to advise us about the process and the trends in our neighborhood. He was incredibly flexible with working around our schedule, often scheduling meetings late in the evening. If we are ever in need in the DC area, he will be our first call.
