We are pleased to announce the Face of Real Estate, David Orso of Berkshire Hathaway Homeservices!

Charging a similar fee and delivering different client outcomes is not how the real world works, so why is it accepted in a large financial matter like buying or selling a home? It is simply not sensible or equitable. Therefore, if you are going to hire a professional to guide you through a complex and often emotional transaction then why wouldn’t you hire the absolute best to represent you if the fee is going to be similar?

The market has shifted, and the stakes have been elevated, which makes it paramount to hire the professional you deserve—the absolute best in their field. David Orso is celebrating his 23rd year in local real estate, which has led to a curated system for maximum client outcomes for both sellers and buyers.

Since 2013, David Orso has been the No. 1 agent in Anne Arundel County for total real estate sales, which is remarkable considering his number one source of leads is REFERRAL from clients. This unprecedented accomplishment is due to his honest, pressure-free, and advocacy-based approach. When asked his secret to year-over-
year elite performance, he stated, “When my clients win, I win. Always in that order.”

This new market requires more than glamour shots and a couple of good years during the real estate boom. Now is the time to evaluate your potential real estate representation closely and dig deep into their experience in challenging markets.

You deserve the best...so hire the best.

licensed and certified staff help you create and maintain beautiful gardens and living spaces. With an interactive design- build process, McHale Landscape Design views every client as an important part of the team.
