ReviewThe David Marshall Team helped me purchase a 9-unit investment property in Lewiston, Maine near Main Street. David Marshall showed me many properties and helped me get a couple of them under contract. While one of them did not work out because of issues that were discovered during inspection - we were able to close on a different property which has been returning excellent cap rates over the years. David provided me with detailed financial information so that I could make informed decisions. He is also incredibly well informed with the ongoing developments in Maine and has deep knowledge on how politics work in this state which further armed me. I highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team.

ReviewThe David Marshall Team helped me both buy a home in Sidney and sell a home in Augusta, and the experience exceeded my expectations. David guided us through getting a home under contract using a VA loan, skillfully negotiated repairs and concessions, and then helped me sell my Augusta home much faster than we anticipated. His expertise, attention to detail, and dedication made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate the support I received and highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team.

ReviewWeve partnered with David Marshall on seven real estate transactions over the last four yearsaEUR"including selling two primary homes, buying two, and purchasing three multifamily investment properties. Dave isnt just a fantastic realtoraEUR"hes an investor himself, which means he brings a level of insight, strategy, and financial acumen thats hard to find. He helped us sell one property for $100K over asking with no inspections and negotiate the purchase of another for $49K under asking with seller concessions. His ability to run numbers, share detailed financial models, and offer honest advice about what makes a deal truly smart has been invaluable. Beyond the numbers, Dave consistently goes above and beyond. Hes incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and often sends personalized video walkthroughs to help explain offers, contracts, and next steps. Its the kind of hands-on, proactive service you rarely see. Whether youre buying, selling, or investing in MaineaEUR"or looking in Florida, where hes expandingaEUR"Dave is exactly the realtor you want in your corner. We wouldnt work with anyone else.

ReviewThe David Marshall Team helped us buy a condo and we strongly recommend working with them. Davids advice saved us $10,000 on our purchase. He was responsive and scheduled showings quickly. We definitely benefited from the negotiation advice we received and will be working with David again in the future

ReviewI highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team! David Marshall helped me sell a house that he had helped me purchase the year prior. He went above and beyond both in helping me close and again in helping get the sale through. The house still needed work and the market was flat when we had to sell, but he found solutions to these challenges and we were able to successfully complete the sale. I had such a great experience that I plan to work with Dave for my next home purchase as well!

ReviewThe David Marshall Team sold my multi-unit for above the asking price with multiple offers and I recommend hiring them. Four years ago, David Marshall helped me buy the duplex and I'm very happy with the appreciation. The process was convenient and had minimal impact on the tenants. The David Marshall Team had a successful open house with multiple agents and the strategy for getting multiple offers worked perfectly. Next time I sell a property, Ill definitely hire The David Marshall Team.

ReviewWe highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team. David and his team helped us buy our dream home, a lake house in Union. It is actually two properties across the street from each other. It was a competitive situation and we received great advice for how to get the home under contract for the asking price. They were there to guide us through the whole process and gave us advice along every turn and even helped with getting the sellers to pay for part of your closing costs. Our son recommended that we hire The David Marshall Team and we are very happy with the result. We will encourage others to work with them also.

ReviewWe strongly recommend working with The David Marshall Team. They helped my wife and I buy house that is new construction. This is our first home purchase and we are so excited! From the initial showing through the closing, they were there to help with every step. Now we see why work friends have enjoyed working with The David Marshall Team and recommend we hire them. We will recommend our friends do too.

ReviewThe David Marshall Team helped us buy a house and we strongly recommend working with them. The team based approach was ideal for showing us homes during the limited time we were available. We were even able to switch to a virtual showing, last minute, when we were not able to make the drive. We found a home and The David Marshall Team negotiated seller concessions. The seller paid our closing costs. We benefited from the strong negotiation skills and flexible showing approach of the The David Marshall Team. Buying a home is a personal experience and David Marshall Team came through to make our dreams come true!

ReviewWe highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team. The David Marshall Team assisted our family with a purchase of a house during a hot sellers market. We were out of state at the time and unable to travel for showings. Through virtual showings, we were able to view multiple houses. We received excellent advice for how to focus our efforts and we were successful in putting a house under contract. The David Marshall Team had all of the contacts we needed from inspectors to structural engineers.Through effective negotiations, the sellers ended up paying our closing costs. We could not have accomplished this without the strong negotiation skills and determination of The David Marshall Team.

ReviewDavid Marshall sold our house in Biddeford for $25,000 above the asking price. We were planning to make a move when Dave called us. He was professional and calm when we met. He clearly did his research and had a solid strategy for getting us top dollar. Dave and his team hired a great photographer for interior, aerials and a 3D tour. They did an excellent job with marketing the property. The open houses they hosted resulted in multiple offers. We benefited from advice and negotiation skills. We highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team.

ReviewOver the past year, I have purchased 4 properties using David Marshall as my realtor. Prior to working with David, I had worked with other realtors in a competitive market but I kept losing bids on every property. Since working with David, we are 4 for 4 on getting our offers accepted. David sets up showings quickly and writes offers immediately in order to get us under contract. David is a real estate investor himself and understands what investors are looking for, their mindset, and how to get deals. I highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team for all of your real estate transactions.

ReviewThe David Marshall Team helped us sell our condo and buy our forever home. Through a different real estate agency, we had been unsuccessful with selling and the listing expired aEUR" this was the height of the pandemic in 2021 and we were living in a third-floor walk-up with a coon cat, a young infant, and very limited funds, feeling more and more trapped. Then, David Marshall reached out and helped us plan a successful strategy for selling our old place and buying our dream home. We greatly appreciate the expertise and dedication we received and highly recommend working with The David Marshall Team.

ReviewI have worked with Dave twice in the last 5 years. He navigated me through the arduous process of an FHA loan on my urban duplex, and then sold it to another lovely buyer and helped my fiance and I score our dream home at asking price during the apex of Covid-realty frenzy. David is patient, knowledgeable, and down to earth. I may never need him a third time, but I would not go through this process with anyone else.

ReviewI met David at a real estate meet up and was immediately drawn to him. His experience working on Portland City Council and extensive knowledge of codes stood out, as well as his relaxed demeanor and the fact that he is an investor himself. I started working with David shortly after meeting him and was instantly impressed with his excellent communication, his insistence on doing due diligence, and his attention to detail. He has saved me a few time from getting into deals that were mis-represented. He thinks like an investor and is more interested in making sure numbers work then being pushy to close a deal. He has recommended lenders, inspectors, and electricians as well as shared his spreadsheets and numbers. He can think creatively and out of the box, which is a very important skill to have in real estate. I have done four deals with David so far. The most recent was the purchase of my personal home. It took 6 months to close and was a roller coaster ride the whole time. If you want someone intelligent, professional, calm, helpful, and who is going to notice hidden red flags, David is the man.

ReviewWe found a multi-family in Portland that fit all of our criteria, so the next thing was to find a real estate agent. We selected David based on his multi-fold experience. He is as advertised, very knowledgeable about all aspects of rental property sales and ownership, and he's well-connected with other "team members" that you may need along the way.We put in an offer that wasn't immediately accepted, so David continued to present additional off-market properties he was finding through hard work. When our initial offer was accepted, he advised at various stages of the following inspections and negotiations. When there was a tough decision, we never felt pressured to close the deal because it would benefit him. If you're looking for someone that knows this market well and will respect you, I highly recommend working with David.

ReviewDavid was our realtor for both purchase and sale. He worked with us for many months and he adapted easily to our changing timelines. He is extremely relaxed and easy to get along with as well as professional. The photographs that he took of our home were excellent quality and made our house look warm and inviting. Overall working with David was a pleasant and easy experience and we highly recommend him.

ReviewOf all realtors my friends and family have had encounters with over the last several years, I really lucked out. There's a huge difference between being interested only in personal gain and truly wanting to help a client through the ups and downs of the process. Dave went the extra mile in some difficult situations and helped me navigate as a first time buyer getting under contract, discovering the property was misrepresented, negotiating getting out of contract, finding another property, and getting under contract again...all with atypical loan programs and a network of other connections. The support and information he provided throughout the whole experience was priceless.

ReviewI'm not a rich guy and David helped me through a process almost no one would. His balance of reality and vision and extended knowledge with city codes and how things work gave me what I needed to make choices along the way. Our first purchase journey took over 3 months and his dedication and commitment was limitless. In the end he identified a winner of an opportunity that fit the desires of my search for a multi-unit building as an investment and place to live. I'm looking forward to working with David in the future on other projects and highly recommend him in every way.

ReviewHe is very knowledgeable about the loan options out there, and helped me find a better fit for me. He went above and beyond by reaching out to Senator Susan Collins on behave of the USDAs low income, first time home owner, loan program, and their requirement to have the home owners insurance paid in full for the first year. Because low income can not afford to pay a years worth of home owners insurance, on top of earnest money, appraisal, and inspection (general, septic, & pest). Also, he still makes himself available to answer questions and concerns even after closing on my beautiful home! You do not pay out of pocket for his assistance! Speak to Dave if your dream is to buy a home!

ReviewWe had the pleasure of working with our close friend, David thoughout our first homebuying experience. We had a meeting at 10 am, and by that afternoon, he had lined up three showings (one being our new home) that we were interested in. From the very first meeting until closing, he advocated on our behalf to get the most out of our purchase and this experience. His knowledge and expertise in the industry made him such a valuable resource for us. He was always available and willing to answer all of those "silly" questions that come with buying a home for the first time. We could have not asked for a better experience and we have David to thank.

ReviewDavid was the perfect agent to help me find my dream home in Westbrook! David has the pulse on the real estate market in the greater Portland area and Maine. His knowledge of the market and housing codes was essential in this seller's market. He helped to identify my needs and was a partner in the search by being responsive to my questions and making suggestions based on our conversations. He was respectful of my schedule which was crazy because of business travel during the search. He offered several times to FaceTime me for a virtual tour when I was out of town. I personally wanted someone who was engaged in the buying process with me and David was available to assist from beginning to end. I highly recommend David as a quality real estate agent who listens and is responsive to your needs.

ReviewAfter 31 years in our home, we were dragging her feet about a major move to be closer to our grandchildren. David Marshall appeared at just the right time. He was professional, enthusiastic and eager to help us maximize the value in our home. He was extraordinarily sensitive to the emotions surrounding the decision to leave our friends and community, and he was kind, patient, and always available. His goal was a prompt sale and our happiness. He was a problem solver, mediator, and facilitator Who went above and beyond the call of duty. We couldn't be happier.
