Meet Sarah Kassabian

Originally from Oklahoma City, Sarah Kassabian moved to DC from Atlanta when her fiancé, Jim, started a new job. Since then, she has fallen in love with the city and discovered her calling in real estate. After working in Atlanta politics and consulting, Sarah realized she needed more purpose-driven work. When she bought her first home with an agent from the Mandy & David Team, Sarah knew that real estate was just what she was looking for. In her previous work, Sarah honed her meticulous attention to detail, which helps her find the perfect home or the perfect buyer for her clients, and learned about the importance of relationships, which she uses to truly understand her clients’ unique needs.

A true people person who developed her diplomatic skills in politics, Sarah knows when subtlety is the best tack to achieve her client’s goals and when to be a Pitbull to get the job done. Sarah believes in the importance of community, and she loves being able to enrich her own community through her real estate work. Sarah is an avid foodie, and she and her fiancé enjoy taking advantage of DC’s extensive restaurant scene. On Fridays, you’ll find Sarah glued to NBA basketball games, always cheering for her hometown Oklahoma City Thunder. She has been an equestrian for 15 years, received her bachelor’s in sociology from Emory University and recently finished her master’s in emergency management and homeland security from Arizona State.

Happy Clients.

"I have bought and/or sold a total of 6 properties with Franky. He is very responsive and knowledgeable of the market. He listens to your needs and continuously woks behind the scenes to find what you are looking for. His greatest strength, from my experience, is at the negotiation table... he's a beast. Franky's work ethic is beyond that of any other agent I have worked with in the past. Lastly, he comes with a team that will usher you through the transaction process; they make it very easy to buy/sell. I will use Franky again, and give him my highest recommendation."

"I cannot recommend Sarah enough! She was amazing to work with - from the beginning, she really understood what was important to us in looking for a new home, and patiently answered our thousands of questions. She is incredibly responsive and gave solid advice on how we can shape our bids to be competitive while staying within our budget. Sarah fights hard for her clients. We were a bit down after putting in four offers that were all rejected, but ended up getting the perfect house for us. Sarah is really good at her job! She's personable and funny and cares about her clients."

"Everyone involved with the Mandy & David Team met and exceeded my expectations from the beginning. I appreciated the level of professionalism, the responsiveness and the genuine kindness throughout the process from everyone involved. If you need a REALTOR®, I could not recommend them enough. You will be in great hands!"

"I work as a real estate developer and have worked with the Mandy & David team to sell a new construction condo development and a renovated townhouse. On both projects, they were tremendously helpful at all steps of the way, understood all the nuances of selling a new construction condo project, and became more involved with selecting finishes, because they had such good suggestions. The entire team is great to work with, and I highly recommend them to anyone for any type of transaction."

"We give Mandy, David, and their knowledgeable and highly responsive team all the credit for our recent home sale! They are just amazing. Throughout the listing and sales process, we relied extensively on Mandy & David's exceptional expertise. The key differentiators are their deep, insightful knowledge of the DC real estate market, their attention to detail, their team (from the photographer to their closing crew), and their ability to bring untraditional buyers available exclusively through their connections and affiliation with Compass. We highly recommend Mandy and David to anyone looking to buy or sell their property in the Metro Washington DC region and are most grateful for their help."

"I cannot recommend Shannon enough! This is the 3rd property I have bought working with Shannon and each transaction has been seamless. For this sale, we sold and bought in the midst of a pandemic. We were able to sell our old home in an off-market deal which allowed for us to get a competitive price and keep our family safe. The service provided by The Mandy and David team (and Shannon) made the entire process incredible easy and painless. I cannot recommend Shannon and her entire team highly enough."

"I worked with David Evans to sell my condo in NW DC. I would highly recommend him if you are buying or selling in DC. He is professional, kind, and knowledgeable. I appreciated his guidance and low-pressure approach throughout the process, especially as a first-time seller. He made the process seamless and easy to navigate. The condo sold the first weekend it was listed! David and his entire team were wonderful!"

"The Mandy and David Team have been at our side for three home purchases and two home sales in DC. They are great advisors, amazing negotiators and have become friends. They support the community they live in and provide the very definition of white glove service. Cannot recommend them highly enough."

"We bought and sold our first house in DC with Donnell. Without Donnell, we would never have found and purchased the 100 year old Capitol Hill row house that we bought with a separate legal unit - and we were able to get in before the property was listed! We got more house than we imagined for ourselves and were able to get steady rental income from the legal unit downstairs. What a great investment thanks to Donnell and his team! Highly recommend him for his professionalism, network, attentiveness, and access to some of the best properties on the market."
