  • Ed and his team recently represented me as a seller. It was a smooth process since Ed has the essential personal skills and business savvy to close deals fast. He is a master strategist and definitely knows the "ins and outs" of the real estate industry. He sold my house in a few days and way over the asking price. My neighbor told me: "I was gone just for the weekend, and I can't believe it's already sold!" I highly recommend Ed and his team. You will not be disappointed!

  • Working with Ed was an absolute pleasure every step of the way. Not only was he knowledgeable about all areas of the city, but he was also very in tune with everything that was on my wish list. He took the time to get to know me and learn what would best fit my needs. We scheduled multiple appointments and he was able to work with me even on short notice. Once I decided to put in an offer on a place, he did everything in his power to get me the best deal possible. He introduced me to the necessary support staff to help prepare me for inspection and closing and continued to check in with me regularly. I was most appreciative of how easy to reach and responsive he was. I would recommend Ed to anyone looking for a great real estate agent!

  • Megan and Ed are a stellar team and did an amazing job helping us find our ideal home. All of the members of the Groho Group are friendly, accommodating, honest and always available to address questions or concerns. We never felt unsafe or taken advantage of while working on our closing. We are incredibly grateful for their extensive insight and experience! I would highly recommend Megan and Ed to anyone looking for real estate representation.

  • Eddie and Megan are great to work with! We have worked with on multiple transactions. They both have so much working experience and knowledge to help make your transaction as smooth as possible. They put you in touch with the best people in the industry. Even after closing, they still continue to go out of their way to help us if we run into any issues. We couldn't have done it without them!

    -Kim L

  • Ed and Meg are the best! We have used them over the years to buy and sale multiple properties in the City. Their customer service and attentiveness to your needs set them apart from other Realtors® who simply go through the motions. Ed and Meg go the extra mile to insure the deal gets done and responds to questions and concerns promptly.
