ZillowVERIFIEDThere are not enough exceptional things I can say about our experience working with Julie. When we began this process we were looking at rentals and could not imagine purchasing a house. Julie assured us that we could and from the beginning was a staunch champion for us. When we decided to start the house hunting process she immediately went to work. Within the hour we already had a personalized list of houses with remarks from her regarding our needs. Once we paired down the list of houses she set up showings, directed us to open houses and followed up multiple times a day every day. She was honest with us from the start about every house we looked at. She treated us like we were family and provided an attention to detail and level of care anyone would want during this stressful process. That was just the house browsing process. Once we selected our home she furiously went to work setting us up for success on putting down an offer. She was a bulldog she fiercely advocated for us throughout the home purchasing process. For a first time home buyer we were spoiled because she made the process seamless and quick. By the time we went to closing she had saved us a considerable amount in closing costs, set us up with additional funds for repairs needed and ensured the decision we made was the right one. She accomplished all of this remotely and even flew in for our closing to make sure everything was set. At the end of the day if you are buying a house in Maryland the only realtor I would recommend is Julie Shepard because she truly does care fiercely about her clients!

ZillowVERIFIED Julie did an amazing, exceptional job in helping us to sell our townhouse. Julie was involved in the entire home selling process. Julie provided excellent advice, particularly, during remodeling and repair of the property, scheduled and conducted multiple open house showings of the home which gained a much wider buyer audience, and to her impressive and superb negotiation skills of the price of the home with the buyer's agent. Julie communicated with us frequently, every few days, throughout the whole home selling process, and even when we had to go out of the country for 10 days during the repair part, Julie very capably handled the situation with our contractor and kept the project on schedule. Julie did an outstanding job in selling our home and in getting the asking price for our property. I would recommend Julie Shepard, a true professional, to my family, my friends, and to just anyone who needs a realtor to get their home sold, and to get the job done right.

ZillowVERIFIED Julie did a FANTASTIC job of walking me through the process from start to finish. Julie showed me homes within my specifications and pricing, and found us the perfect one not long after we started working with her! Could not be more happy and we'll look forward to working with Julie again on our next purchase!!

ZillowVERIFIED Julie helped us find the perfect home for us! In this market, the process certainly started to become frustrating but Julie's persistent, positive attitude continued to give us hope that we'd find our home. She suggested a few unique strategies to help us make our offer more appealing to the seller, and she would always communicate with the seller agent to make sure we submitted the most competitive offer we could. Whenever we saw a property that met our criteria, Julie went above and beyond to get us the first showing that she could and provided all of the information we needed to make a decision.

ZillowVERIFIED Without Julie, we would have never found such a great home in this market! She was always very responsive to all forms of communication and answered all of our questions throughout the process. Whenever we found a house we were interested in, she was able to provide additional information and resources. She came with us for several home visits and always made us feel like a priority. She coordinated with the selling agent on every offer we put down in order to make our offers more competitive. She also made the closing period as easy as possible for us, despite several changes by the seller. We are so happy we found a home with Julie!

ZillowVERIFIED We called Julie from out of state and told her we were thinking of selling our condo at the beach. Julie discussed our options. We decided to put the condo on the market. Julie travelled to the beach, staged the condo for sale, and listed it within five days. The condo sold within one week. The price offered was less than the listing price. Julie suggested we counter offer (thereby getting our desired asking price). We did, they accepted our counter offer and the condo sold "as is" all within ten days. Julie arranged settlement instructing us what to do through the entire process. Settlement occurred within 3 1/2 weeks and we were in sunny Florida throughout the entire process. That is excellence! We recommend Julie!

ZillowVERIFIED Julie helped us buy our condo in Annapolis and was super helpful in the entire process to get to a successful close. Although we had owned property before, this was still just the 2nd property ever that I had purchased and I needed alot of education and help that Julie provided.

ZillowVERIFIED Julie and I had no prior knowledge of one another, and she showed me immediately that she was knowledgeable, committed, and filled with a lot of common sense! She was so helpful through the whole process, and her calmness eased a lot of the frayed nerves around her! Her counsel on what was reasonable or unreasonable was extremely helpful, too. I highly recommend her as a talented, committed agent.

ZillowVERIFIED Julie recently just helped my buy my first home! She was incredibly accommodating, and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She had an exceptional work ethic, and and always got things done in a timely manner. And, she did a very good job explaining the home buying process.

ZillowVERIFIED Julie provided exceptional service as a buyers agent for my 85 year old Mother buying a home near me. Julie had remarkable patience with her. She was honest, and never pushy. Julie found a great 55+ neighborhood that I wasn't even aware of that will help her stay independent as time wears on. Julie was great match for us since we are not savvy negotiators, she negotiated 15K off the asking price. Julie continued to have our back all through the buying process, e.g. she found us a notary to get me POA late on a weekend, saving me hours of driving to make sure my mom signs documents correctly.

ZillowVERIFIED Julie came in like a hurricane after another real estate agent let our house sit for months with no action. My father had passed away and we needed to sell his house. She told us exactly what we needed to do, and she sold our house in three weeks. I trust her and I highly recommend her as a real estate professional.

Review for Member: Julie Shepard
ZillowVERIFIED Julie helped my wife and I with the purchase of our first home, and she truly made the entire process so easy going. I remember the first day she showed me our new home. After the walkthrough, I told her, "This is the house." She replied, "I'm going to make sure you get it!" Sounds cliche, but word for word, it happened. Working with an extremely experienced and knowledgable realtor, could not be more important. Julie truly blew us away! She was always professional, organized, willing to educate, and even made herself available to meet with contractors or inspectors when we couldn't, Julie truly went above and beyond for us throughout the ENTIRE process! Again, I can not stress how great our experience was buying with Julie. The amount of relief she lifted is unreal. For anyone purchasing a home for the first time, or the 50th, I highly recommend Julie Shepard. We are very lucky to have had the opportunity to work with such a loyal and caring individual. Julie, my wife and I cant thank you enough!

ZillowVERIFIED I was stationed on the West coast trying to buy a house on the East Coast. Julie was very patient and amazing to work with, my co signer on the loan (my wife) decided half way through the deal she didn't want to be a co signer anymore, but Julie was very encouraging and managed to work up a new deal so I could still buy the house without any co signer. Thank you Julie, you made this process a lot easier then I thought it was going to be.

ZillowVERIFIED Julie has been extremely great to work with. Her knowledge and understanding of the local market allowed us to price and prepare our home to be sold at top dollar. In addition because of her positive and proactive attitude and work ethic, we were constantly having our house being shown to potential buyers. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIED Ms. Shepard was our Realtor helping us to find a home near Annapolis MD. She proved to be most helpful in lining up several homes that met our specifics for viewing to include the home we settled on in Pasadena MD. When we were working through the offer process, she made several suggestions that saved us considerable costs and made the whole effort painless. During the closing process, she made sure everything was lined and met out tight timeline work on a date that matched ours and the sellers needs. We couldn't more pleased with the entire process from the day we first met Julie to the last day we closed. We hope this review helps you as you consider your options for a Realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED To All that want to Sell and / or want to Acquire a New Residency and to Whom it May Concern, It is our great privilege and heartfelt gratitude that we share comments on our experience with Julie Shepard from the very respected Creig Northrop Team of Long and Foster for finding us a new home while listing and selling our current home. We have lived in our home for nearly 40 years and we were so very apprehensive about moving, yet we knew it was time. Overall, we have never before encountered such a level of superiority and proficiency along with a spirit of enthusiasm and can do attitude like Julie. We are so thankful the Creig Northrop sent us Julie. From a personal perspective, when Linda became very ill, Julie came over with soup, popsicles, and ginger ale since that was what the Doctor recommended for Linda in helping her recover to supplement the antibiotics. Julie was so kind and thoughtful to help Linda recover. Julie called every day to check on Lindas well-being. This sets Julie apart from all her fellow realtors and most neighbors and friends. By the way, Linda is feeling much better. We are currently closing on our new house and Julie obtained a contract on our current house 3 days after posting for sale. We are so excited about our new house that Julie found for us but was extremely astonished and jubilant about receiving a contract on our current home in such a short time frame. If you want a fully competent and trusted individual that truly cares about her clients, you want Julie Shepard. Thank you, Julie. You are the Best! Sincerely, Linda and Edward Zelinski
