I cannot speak highly enough about Khalil El-Ghoul, Sadia Kashif and the whole Glass House Real Estate Team. Khalil worked with us to develop an aggressive plan that included a thorough analysis of what he felt our townhouse would bring, what needed to be done to get it show ready, and how he and his amazing team would market it. Our stress levels were high as we were in the process of moving to another state and most of the process would occur after we moved. The Team handled EVERYTHING! They lined up the contractors for painting and repairs, staging, and legal work. The townhouse sold within days of going on the market and at a higher price than we expected. Khalil was thorough, analytic, knowledgeable, patient, and one of the nicest people with whom weve ever worked. Thank you, thank you, thank you Khalil, Sadia and the whole Glass House Team!!!
We've worked with Khalil to buy and sell property, and we've been very happy with both experiences! He makes the process seamless and works hard in the interest of his clients. I would definitely recommend Khalil and will be reaching out to him in the future if we have any real estate needs!
After more than two years of searching for our ideal property in Vienna, Glasshouse Realty helped us finally find the perfect home. Khalil's persistence, professionalism, and deep understanding made all the difference. Even when the search felt daunting, they never gave upaEUR"and were so grateful they didnt. The experience was absolutely worth it, and we couldnt recommend Glasshouse Realty more highly. Thank you all!!
Khalil and Glass House were fantastic to work with! Very quick and responsive to my questions about the complex transaction process, and they helped me a lot in understanding the ins and outs of the different properties I looked at. They were also very helpful in strategizing how to negotiate with the sellers on a few concessions, which was something I hadn't had prior experience before. Definitely reccomend!
In a word -- WOW! Do yourself a favor and work with this team!! Khalil, Sadia and team were absolutely incredible. They helped my husband and I sell my MIL's home while we were living outside the NOVA area. He was incredibly attentive to detail, responsive, communicative and an all around professional. We only met him once while were cleaning out the house and the rest we were able to handle remotely which was awesome. He saved us a ton of time and money - his crew helped us remove the remaining junk from our house, paint and re-carpet in record time, and added additional finishes to make the house look great for the photos. We received and accepted an offer at a price we were thrilled with within days. The process after accepting continued to be seamless. I cannot recommend him enough! Thank you, thank you!!

Khalil saved us a ton of money and time through his knowledge of the market, the process, and his responsiveness. Super knowledgeable generally and has a strong team to support him. He came recommended to us, and we would recommend him to others and would use him again in any future transaction.
Khalil, Aria, Sadia and the whole team have been wonderful to work with for selling our current home and buying our next one! Their professionalism, promptness, and incredible partner referrals have all been a delight and made this momentous experience in our lives such a positive memory for our whole family! Aria did an outstanding job helping us to win a home in an incredibly competitive market and Khalil helped us sell our home at the price point we wanted! Sadia and all theirs partner helped us navigate every detail with easy and seamlessness. They were all such a delight!
Khalil helped us purchase a new house and expediently sell an older house. He was very good about communication and was always available for our questions and concerns. He seemed to have very good insight about the current market trans and environment. We felt comfortable with him, guiding us through this process. He is a class act and was very effective in the several real estate transactions we did with him. Will keep in touch with him for the future. Glass House was super easy to work with as well.
Khalil and his team are the BEST in NOVA/DC. We have worked with him on multiple real estate transactions as the needs of our family changed and in each instance his advise and expertise resulted in helping us receive the highest value for our home in the least amount of time. He provides outstanding pre-listing advice and resources to make it effortless to get your home on the market and then is your strongest advocate to help you navigate contract negotiations. We couldn't be happier and will never use another realtor in this area.
Khalil is the epitome of what a realtor should be. He has improved upon every piece of the process for sellers using his experienced team plus professional photographers, stagers, and marketers. Many extra services above and beyond what other realtors provide were included in the Glass House commission rate of 4.5%. Even with a short timeframe to sell, Khalil connected us with an awesome contractor to help us with a variety of home repairs and touch ups. We were extremely impressed with that work and the price that Khalil was able to negotiate for us. The staging consultation had our home looking fantastic for the photos. We were able to see our showings in an app and both open houses went very well. Khalil's expertise was essential in determining the right timing and pricing for selling our house. He was in communication with us as things happened and also just to check in, which we really appreciated. He recommended a wonderful lawyer to review our settlement documents at no extra cost to us. Nothing was left to chance. In the end, we had several great offers and were very happy. We never felt any pressure or stress during the process, thanks to Khalil's calm and personable demeanor. We really enjoyed getting to know him and would recommend that anyone considering buying or selling a home should contact him. Every home and situation is unique, Khalil tailored his approach to what mattered to us. He is trustworthy, experienced, detail-oriented and kind. We really enjoyed working with him.
We bought our beautiful condominium with Khalil back in 2005! And a couple of weeks ago, we sold our condo with Khalil and his fantastic team (Sadia and Susan). They made the process go smoothly, and their professionalism, responsiveness, transparency, and trustworthiness made us feel at ease. Trust is everything in matters like this! We received the first offer for the full asked price within 48 hours of listing. Glass House has a handy man who did last minute repairs in our condominium very quickly to prepare it for the sale. Since 2005 we have been recommending Glass House to all our friends. Khalil, we are very grateful and look forward to working with you and your team in the future again! Thank You.
Glass house real estate is the way to go!. Khalil and the entire team were super helpful, responsive and on point throughout our process with helping us find a mortgage company, many obstacles, multiple showings, the entire process. ISABEL-ISABEL-ISABEL!!!! I cant stress it enough how helpful Isabel was throughout our process in buying our first home. Isabel was with us from the beginning until closing. We will definitely keep our loyalty to this team for future purchases and so should you! And did I mention Isabel? :)
We have used Khalil and Glass House on two occasions now to both buy and sell properties. On both occasions, we were very impressed by their efficiency and professionalism. Their team works very well together and is always on top of everything keeping you in the loop and up-to-date on the process. We could not be more pleased with our experience working with Glass House Real Estate
I worked with Khalil and his team in the summer of 2019 to sell my house. My husband and I had just gotten separated at that time and were in the middle of an emotionally draining divorce process. Khalil was very professional and patient throughout the process as there was a lot of lack of communication, uncertainty and disagreements between me and my husband. He understood how sensitive this process was to us and to our child especially, so the house showings were done by appointment only to avoid non- serious buyers. Khalil also brought in a designer to help stage the house, which helped make it more appealing to a larger group of potential buyers. The photographer was fabulous and was able to capture all the strong aspects of the house. House was sold within two months of listing. The whole team was helping us move out on the day of closing as there was a lot to stuff still to move and sellers were coming for a final walk through. Team showed a lot patience and kept their focus and professionalism. Whatever the reason is to buy/sell a house, there are always a lot of emotions involved, I am thankful to Khalil and his team for not only focusing on selling the house but also understanding the emotional aspect that was related to the process.
In midst of COVID-19, we sold our home in Fairfax and bought a new home in Aldie with the help of Khalil and his team. Eight years before, he was also the one who helped me to buy the same home which was sold. His team has grown leaps and bounds since then. His team has a stager, handy man to fix any work needed, listing agent, showing crew and settlement co-ordinator, and more. Khalil being the principal broker was always available to provide suggestion on the market, home improvement needed, pricing strategies and offer negotiations on the selling side. He also provided insights on pros & cons various pricing options. I have personally found the new home by myself but got the help of Khalil to validate the new home market and in negotiating a rebate for my new home with the new construction builder which could be a hard process. We did all of this in the midst of COVID-19 which is highly uncharted territory for real estate industry as a whole. Pricing and timing is something I had personal drive which he understood and provided suggestion on pros & cons on them and eventually able to execute on them. We got quickly 4 offers in 3 days of showing. Quickly we wrapped up with good deal for seller, buyer and agent with a win-win attitude. Everything went like breeze. He and his team has an excellent grasp on the market and the whole process. He and his team was highly responsive & transparent in the all the communications. Being bought 2 homes and sold one home with Khalil, I strongly suggest Khalil for any selling and buying homes in DMV areas.
We have worked with Khalil to purchase and sell a property. Both experiences were top notch. Khalils expert instinct for the market, what works, and honest opinion were invaluable. He is backed by a team that makes the buying/selling process extremely easy, professional, and smooth. We will absolutely continue to work with Khalil and Glass House on our future real estate endeavors.
Khalil and the Glass House team are amazing to work with. In the past few years we have used Khalil to buy two homes and sell one. Each transaction was handled expertly, with excellent results. Khalil and team recently navigated us through a challenging home sale during the COVID-19 pandemic with skill and confidence. Khalils expertise in complex negotiation, deep knowledge of the local market and commitment to getting us the best possible deal were invaluable in both buying and selling our homes. We will definitely work with Khalil for our future real estate needs.
Khalil and GlassHouse helped us buy our forever home, and also sell our townhome in a tricky market. Khalil is exceptionally knowledgeable and laid out the facts and market research data for us to make an informed decision, both as buyers and as sellers. Khalil provided council on dozens of properties that we saw and was patient and responsive with us throughout the process. You can't go with Khalil and his team! The GlassHouse team is meticulously detailed and on top of everything once the buying/selling process kicks in. It was a relief and heavy burden off our shoulders to keep getting timely information on next steps, what to expect, deadlines etc. as the process can be quite daunting. From searching for the right home, negotiations, inspections and finally signing off on the deal, Khalil and his team were available every step of the way. We could not recommend them enough!
Khalil and his team were amazing in helping us sell a single-family home in Fairfax, VA. Every step of the process (staging, photographs & 3D virtual tour, marketing, contract, and closing) was very professional and organized. We will definitely work with his team for any future moves or purchases.
Simply superb! Working with Khalil was an excellent experience. He was well informed, courteous, friendly and basically guided us through the entire process of selling our house and then getting the new house. The whole process started with meeting Khalil at our old house wherein he explained his complete profile, his experience, his team and what should we expect were we to work with him. We were satisfied with his profile and went ahead. This turned out to be an excellent decision. He suggested the listing price for our old house, how to prep it, his team came over and advised on how to stage it, then professionally photographed it and finally listed it. We got nothing but praise from the agents & prospective buyers who came to see our house. Everyone commented that the house was fairly priced. It was the "hot home" on Zillow. We got our first offer with few hours of listing. We ended up accepting the 2nd offer exactly as per our asking price and a rent back too. So we got everything we had asked for. Khalil was instrumental in getting our new house from the builder, he advised us on a few issues we had with the builder and it was resolved to our satisfaction. My wife & me are thoroughly impressed by Khalil and his team and recommend him to anyone interested in getting a fair deal and have your interests watched all the time. I wish Khalil and his team great success!
We worked with Khalil and his team after being referred by a friend. We flew in from overseas for one week to house shop in the Arlington area - we informed Khalil multiple times that we were flying in for only one week and were committed to making offers quickly and closing as soon as possible due to the time constraint and living overseas. By day 2 we had a house we wanted to make an offer on - long story short, it took Khalil more than 72 hours to get the offer in. During that 72 hours, Khalil's communication with us varied from completely non-responsive to aggressive. Even his team member we were working with was confused by his delayed response. When the offer was submitted, it had major errors including the wrong offer price and misspellings. At the end of the week we found out that we lost the house from a real estate public listing update. At that point, we decided to go with a different realtor instead of proceeding any further with Khalil. Would recommend going with literally any other realtor. We are still confused by the terrible experience we had as we were motivated, flexible and had a substantial budget to work with. We closed with another realtor just a few weeks later.
Khalil dealt with probably the biggest headache in a home seller. We had a major task of selling a house, finding a rental and getting another house built in a small time frame while having a baby. Needless to say THIS seller was a stressed out bag of worry and Khalil was cool as ICE. We set a goal and range and at the end of the process we met those goals. As a buyers agent, he and his staff stepped up and got some concessions and came through with the buyers rebate. As a sellers agent, he and his staff (Monique and Oscar) were on point and never missed deadlines. They made sure we were squared away squared away come closing time.
We've bought two houses (2013 & 2018) and sold one (2018) with Khalil's help. Khalil spent time getting to know what we're looking for so that when we looked at homes and when it came time to decide how much to offer and what terms to offer, it felt very comfortable. Obviously, we valued his expertise because we chose to use him again the second time around and to sell the first house we'd bought. Also, the significant cash rebate after the closing sure was nice! On the sell-side, Khalil and his team did an incredible job advising on how to improve the house with an eye towards those investments that will pay for themselves in elevated home value. He did not simply tell us to fix everything, which we really appreciated. And perhaps best of all, after a huge wind storm (March 2018) knocked over 20 feet of fence the day before our open house, Khalil raced to find a repairman who completed the job at a fair rate on a Sunday morning on short notice. After just a single weekend, the house sold at the very top end of our target range.
Where do I start? My wife and I bought what we thought was our perfect first single-family home, but quickly learned it was not what we had expected. We ditched our initial realtor, who was horrible, and upgraded to Khalil on a recommendation. It is clear that Khalil is a realtor for the 21st century with a focus on today's technology, and extremely reasonable sales commissions. He sold our house after we were in it for only 2 months and at the same price we purchased it for! He turned a horrible situation into a great one. He has create a well oiled machine with a team that understands their respective roles. Khalil was masterful in his negotiations both on the sale and purchase of our homes, making sure we got every last percent. NEVER pay a 6% commission again, and expect the same or better service from Khalil and his team. I would recommend him to any one interested in selling or buying a home. Thank you Khalil and your team!
Khalil and his team were great from the start. We had to pause selling and buying a house and they were very gracious but they had already shared with us the plan for how they work. Once things got better on our end they were ready to roll with us. It was great from the staging advice, to looking at new homes, to closing the deals on both ends!
Khalil and Jeff were both spectacular. They were extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful throughout the entire process. They also had excellent referrals -- our lending situation was fairly complicated, and they were very helpful in trying to resolve things in a timely fashion. I could not be happier with the assistance we received from Khalil and Jeff and would absolutely recommend them to anyone.
Khalil and his team including Victoria and Oscar are very knowledgeable, professional and have excellent co-ordination. I have worked with a few other buyer's agents in the past and only Khalil provided 2% rebate and excellent service. Victoria provided a checklist of items to be addressed before closing with corresponding timelines which I found to be very useful. They were both diligent about following-up and responding to every email that I sent out. I am glad I went with them will definitely consider them for future business. I highly suggest them for anyone who is looking for a real estate agent.
Khalil and his team are exceptional. Knowledgeable, professional, and great response time. Selling/buying a home can be stressful, but Khalil's team worked hard to make it as smooth as possible for us. In real estate transactions, time is of the essence, and this team moves fast on your behalf. Glad we went with them!
Glass House Realty handled sale of a townhouse for us. From start to finish the process was painless, mainly because Khalil and his staff handled every detail. They even went as far as to find trade persons to correct items discovered in the home inspection. We had not sold property for several years, so were pleasantly surprised that most everything, including signatures, was handled electronically - no running back and forth to the realtor office, just review and sign from the kitchen table. We most strongly recommend Glass House Realty.
We highly recommend Khalil for buying your home. He is highly efficient and helped us close our home. Great service, Good communication, Good negotiation. Great Team!
Khalil's service was fantastic and was perfect for our family. I would highly recommend his agency to anyone buying or selling. We had a top-notch experience.
My second time working with Khalil. The high rebate he returns is real and the main reason I chose his company. After I selected the home I wanted by attending open houses he and his team helped us determine what was a good offer. After our offer was accepted, his team was superb at everything from being there for inspection to supporting us on the required paperwork. Highly recommend.
Khalil was amazingly knowledgeable and efficient. His calm demeanor was an incredible benefit during what sometimes was a stressful and chaotic home buying process. We highly recommend Khalil and Glass House Realty. Although his rebate model requires you to do some of the prospecting on your own it is completely worth the effort when you get the rebate check back from Glass House! He definitely has an edge on other realtors in the Northern Virginia area and we will most definitely be using them again.
Khalil is fantastic. Great service, quick to respond, and a smart negotiator. I saved a ton of cash, and he helped complete the whole process while traveling.. all I had was my smartphone. I'd recommend Khalil to anyone.
We bought a home through Glass House and this was by far the best experience we have ever had. Khalil and his staff provided excellent customer service from beginning to end, and they gave us a rebate! Why would anyone choose any other real estate company?
Khalil was quick to point respond, kept everything moving continuously. His team was always in contact with us sending the paperwork and all the way to the closing they were there. Good team to work with, wood definitely recommend them.
Khalil is an excellent agent and we are very happy we chose him. This was our first time buying a house and, while I was well prepared with knowledge about the entire process, we decided to work with Khalil following a recommendation from one of my colleagues (who did 5 transactions with him). I am very thorough on determining the price of the house and every single time Khalil and I got the same value (unbelievable, considering the wide mismatch we had with our previous real estate agent). His negotiation approach won us the contract in a situation with multiple buyers (he recommended to exclude the financing contingency and add in the escalation clause). After we discovered issues during the home inspection, he got us a higher amount than what the seller offered, much closer to the cost of the repairs (in my opinion). He gave us advice, but he did not make decisions for us. Just make sure his business model fits you: you search the house, decide which one you want (Oscar and Jeff will show them to you), then he steps in for the negotiation and closing. We visited houses with Oscar and he was very helpful pointing out details of the properties. Victoria did a great job preparing the documents and coordinating the entire process. We will definitely use Khalil next time we need a real estate agent.
We unreservedly recommend Khalil and his team! They were helpful with offer strategy, comps and were very responsive. Their pricing is competitive and our experience was a success!
His team were very helpful. They were on top of things. I bought my last home through them also. He also sold a house for my cousin. Once you know the location, they will be on top of it. They will send you listing, show you the place and you get some money back.
I am so glad that my husband and I went with Khalil El-Ghoul and his team (Oscar, Victoria) to buy our first home together. Khalil was very knowledgeable, accessible, and prompt with communication. Whenever we encountered challenges (such as competing offers, negotiating the price, inspection results etc.) he expertly navigated us through them. I am very grateful to Khalil and his team for their wonderful work and we are so happy we have the house they helped us to buy!
Khalil came highly recommended to us and did not disappoint. He was responsive and easy to work with. His team took amazing photos of our condo and he gave us great information about the price point he felt was best to list the property. We had an offer in 24 hours! We had a lot of negotiation with the buyers and Khalil really made the best of the situation and looked out for our interests throughout. He was great to work with. We plan to use him again when we are ready to sell/buy another property. I would highly recommend Khalil.
Khalil and his team were incredible. We weren't the easiest clients, but they were very patient with us when we were going back and forth on whether or not we were ready to sell. Once we made the decision to sell, Khalil worked quickly to get our condo on the market and handled all the negotiating when offers came in to get some initially lower offers up to full asking price. Our place sold quickly and we could not be happier with Khalil's professionalism and knowledge of the Northern Virginia market.
Great value without loss of service! Khalil stuck with me through a challenging sale and never cease providing excellent advice and timely communication.
I could not be more satisfied with Khalil's efforts to sell our townhouse and help us buy a new home. He has been responsive to all of our questions and helpful throughout the process. I would highly recommend him to any friend or family member looking to buy or sell in the Washington area.
After finding my own house and asking for a viewing, they were very responsive. I must have been the easiest client, because I looked at one house for 10 minutes and put in an offer. The next afternoon I received an email string from Khalil. That morning the buyer's realtor asked if we'd take counters, then two hours later telling us there was another bid in and to submit our best and final at our soonest. I responded with my best and final. I tried reaching Khalil via text, phone call and email with no response all day. Finally, that evening I called Victoria very upset due to lack of response and the urgency to respond with the best and final. I signed a contract that evening. The next day I received an email from Khalil stating they went with the other offer. I contacted the seller's realtor, and he stated he didn't hear from us so they took the other offer. So, basically I lost the house due to lack of response. There wasn't even a phone call or explanation or apology. The rebate is nice, but is it worth the lack of customer service needed to win a bid in this market? Totally unacceptable and unprofessional. In addition, the comps they sent me on the house were extremely high and included other houses that were 1000 sq ft bigger. Luckily, my friend is a realtor and she sent me the "real" comps. This business is obviously focused on making money and not getting you the best price. I received no call or information on the seller's position.
I chose to work with Khalil based on a friend's recommendation and I am very happy with the results. Khalil and his team did a great job of selling my home in the middle of winter in under two weeks. He provided sound advice and guidance throughout the process and always had my best interests in mind.
Outstanding experience with Khalil and his entire team at Glass House. If you don't use them, you're leaving money on the table. 2% back on an expensive townhouse in the Merrifield area was extremely helpful for us. Blows other comparable services out of the water. Have sent a few other friends his way and they have been equally impressed. Keep up the great work !
My wife and I used Khalil to purchase our first home. We enjoyed working with him throughout the full end-to-end process. He guided us through the offer, negotiation, contracting, and close process. He and his team are easy to work with and would highly recommend. Would work with them again.
Khalil is true professional. His standards are of the highest caliber; he arranged a professional stager to come and make our house ready to be showed to the public. He was alway there to answer our questions. Wether it was the weekend or during normal business hours he always returned our calls. Highly recommended...
