Top 10 Reasons Kensington MD Sellers Choose James Buckley, Canopy Property Group

Selling in Kensington means selling a town as much as a house. Buyers come for Antique Row, the MARC station, and weekend walks on Beach Drive. My job is to show them why your home fits that picture. I'm James Buckley, owner of Canopy Property Group at eXp Realty.

What does a two-part move look like?

Plenty of sellers need to sell one home and buy the next at the same time. One of mine needed to buy up to a $2.1M home while selling. We used pre-market access, a careful offer, and a free rent-back, so both deals closed without temporary housing or a gap in money. Total transaction value was $2,950,000. In the seller's words, it "felt impossible until it wasn't."

What happens after our first call?

We meet for a free Seller Strategy Session. I look at how your home compares to recent 20895 sales, we talk price, and I lay out the marketing plan and timeline. If you hire me, my team handles prep, staging, photography, pre-market outreach, the launch, offers, and settlement. You make the decisions, and we do the legwork.
