Meet Shannon

Shannon O’Farrell was the very first agent to join the team after Mandy helped her buy her first home. Her previous work as a commercial property manager and in residential construction informs her work as a realtor. Shannon recognizes a good investment and understands what it takes to renovate any home. Thanks to her vast experience and marriage to a general contractor, she has compiled a long list of contractors that she refers to her clients.

Well known for her patience and knowledge of the DC-area market, she really cares about her clients, who become part of her life and circle of friends. Licensed in DC, Maryland, and Virginia since 2007, Shannon lives with her husband and two kids in Brookland, a neighborhood that she loves for its sense of community.

An avid Nats fan with season tickets, you’ll often find Shannon at the ballpark with her family. She also spends time at her vacation home on the Eastern Shore and visiting family in northern Michigan. A graduate from James Madison University with a degree in journalism, Shannon grew up in the Virginia suburbs.

Shannon's children attend Washington Yu Ying, a Chinese immersion school in Brookland, where Shannon volunteers. Shannon is particularly proud of the block parties the Mandy & David Team hosts to raise funds for the school’s PTA.

Happy Clients.

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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!"

"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 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."

Kassie R.

"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!"
