  • John Coleman came highly recommended from our daughter, who has bought 2 houses and sold one with his help. Working with John and his team was a pleasure from start to finish. He helped us focus our search and patiently explored numerous houses with us. Once we decided on a house, he and his team handled every aspect of the sale that did not absolutely require our involvement, including routine and non-routine inspections. He involved contractors he knew to give us background information to help with the negotiations. The whole process was as smooth and as stress-free as possible. The team was always available for questions and John also had great recommendations for contractors for work we wanted to do after we bought the house. We would highly recommend John and would certainly use him again if we buy or sell in future.

  • John and his team recently helped us with both a home purchase and sale in the Hill East neighborhood. No one knows this area of town better or is more in tune with the market than John. His insight was tremendously helpful, especially in navigating a challenging and dynamic market during the sale of our home. His team was always on the ball with respect to deadlines and requirements and made sure everything came together seamlessly. We valued his feedback and guidance, and highly recommend him and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell in the greater DC area.

  • We found John somewhat randomly through Instagram, loved his vibe, and decided to go with him. It turned out to be one of the best decisions. As two lawyers, we probably required a little extra patience (we asked many, many questions), but John answered every one thoughtfully. Even more importantly, he anticipated the questions we did not know to ask and made sure we were informed, confident, and well-represented at every stage. When unexpected complexities arose during the contract, he drew on his deep expertise and extensive network to help us navigate them effectively. Thanks to his dedication, judgment, and responsiveness, we found our dream home and sealed the deal as soon as it hit the market. We could not recommend John and his team more highly!

  • I can’t say enough about what a great job John, Claudia, and their whole team did selling my home this past spring. They provided best in class marketing, did an excellent job of communicating through every step of the process, and really hustled to take care of all the hiccups came up during the various stages of the sale. The market is pretty tough at the moment, but not if you have realtors like John and Claudia working on your behalf. They’re the best available option in DC and I fully plan on using them again and referring them to anyone I know who’s buying or selling a home in the area.

  • john and his team have guided us through three transactions on both the buy and sell side with the utmost care, straightforward advice and terrific customer service. John's pulse on the DC-market (in particular his deep expertise in the Capitol Hill/ Kingman Park/ Hill East/ Trinidad/ H Street neighborhoods) would have us recommend his team to anyone buying or selling in the area.John is also fluent in all things "data" as it related to the information you find on sites like Zillow, which I appreciated as he answered my every question. A better way to say it is that John has really woven himself into the community's fabric over the course of years. He knows the stories behind our neighborhood (and homes, in some cases). His team understands the block-by-block nuances that might driving decision making on price and asset selection. You can't go wrong!

  • We were incredibly lucky to have John, Ashley, and Claudia as our team in our recent home purchase and sale this last month. This team is incredibly creative, diligent, and overall fun during each stage of the process. I felt confident relying on their expertise and most importantly their read of people and communication strategy for the best possible outcome in both situations. 10/10 would use again.

  • John and his team maintained professionalism and patient throughout my (unexpectedly) long house hunt. They negotiated a great deal for me on my condo, and I would recommend them to anyone but especially first time home buyers.

  • John and his team helped us sell our single-family home in Eckington for above asking and buy a single-family home in Brookland for below asking this year. He was amazing! His team handled every detail, big or small, setting us up for success. I was just joking that I want to buy another house just so I can continue to work with him and his team! We love John Coleman so much that if we have another son, we pledged to name him John Coleman Realty.

  • John was incredibly helpful in selling our DC home, and we appreciated the high level of communication, especially as an out-of-state seller. It's a tough market, but he pulled out all the stops to make our place look great and stand out.We can't recommend John more highly to anyone selling or buying in the DMV!

  • If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. John and his team helped me sell my DC house. From the very beginning, his team made everything a breeze. They handled every step of the process and made it a super easy for me--everything from getting quotes from contractors for prep, handling staging, and hosting open houses. We unfortunately ran into a number of unexpected setbacks during the process (nothing to do with John's team) and John was phenomenal in helping me navigate every bump in the road. I always felt like I could speak openly with him about my concerns and goals and get sound advice from him in response. He never pressured me to take a path I didn't want. In short, he helped me navigate a very stressful process as best as possible. Next time. need a realtor, I fully intend to work with John and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

  • We just bought out first home with the help of the team at Coleman residential and I can't overstate the level of gratitude we feel for John, Ashley, and the rest of the team. I started the homebuying process not knowing much of anything and they were so patient, knowledgeable, dynamic, and responsive- just top notch service and expertise all around. Not to mention they are such wonderful, likable people which is so important because the process is very collaborative so it was great to always look forward to seeing them or speaking to them. I am naturally a bit of an anxious person and I felt I was in the best hands. I'm so, so grateful that our first homebuying experience was with the best. They will be our go to for any future properties!

  • John is absolutely terrific! We used him to buy our first home, and there was no question we'd use him again when the time came to sell that home and purchase another. If you've seen his videos online, John is as nice and fun as he seems, which is incredibly important for someone with whom you'll spend lots of time navigating the exciting and sometimes stressful process of buying and selling a home. The same is true of Claudia and the rest of the Coleman Residential team.We were expecting selling our house to be super time-consuming and stressful, but the Coleman Residential team took care of most of the work. They made a list of things that needed sprucing up, lined up contractors to give us estimates for repairs and staging, and then did 100% of managing the contractors. Lots of work for them, and very little work for us! It was amazing. They also handled the entirety of the marketing, including leveraging John and Claudia's social media handles to promote the property. John is a seasoned professional, and he's highly skilled at advocating for his clients during negotiations, while also helping his clients to step aside from the emotional side of things. He's incredibly responsive, and he and his team will hustle for you! When we had a last-minute surprise just hours before closing of our new home and then were navigating multiple complex offers with the sale of our house, we were thrilled to have him on our team.

  • Highly recommend John and his team. From the first meeting, he took the time to walk us through the entire process and answer all our questions. John made the process seamless and we landed our dream home!

  • John is a fantastic realtor. Moving after 38 years in one home can be stressful. John, with his seemingly boundless energy made it fun, or at least tolerable. He was always there to answer questions and promoted the house with a fantastic video. His support in getting the house ready to sell went beyond our expectations. Once on the market, he kept us up to date. I was really appreciative of his help in navigating offers. His due diligence helped us accept the right offer for us.

  • John, Claudia, and the whole team at Coleman Residential are top notch! They were the best team to have to help us buy our home. Very responsive and good at explaining things at every step of the way. John is a great advocate and negotiator. Great connections in the industry and experts in the DC area. Very happy repeat customer!

  • With a growing family and work from home needs, we left our wonderful brick house in Brookland for a larger house the suburbs. We heard great things about John Coleman from a friend, so we reached out for both the sale and purchase. He's easily one of the best professionals we've worked with in DC. Not only is John an experienced and highly responsive agent, but he's also a fun, down to earth guy who respects his clients. We felt that we were well-advised but not steered throughout our time navigating the challenging real estate market of Fall-Winter 2022, with large amounts of our equity at stake. John works with the broader JMG team as well, which allows him to provide a truly full service operation throughout home renovation, prep for sale, listing, open houses, follow up with other agents, home tours, and closing. John MC'ed most of this, but we also received great help from Rhiannon Swanson on the sale, Ashley Brudowsky on the purchase, and Matthew Scheren on the closing, as well as others in the group. Also, their broader network that they work with is top notch, including contractors for any renovations, marketing, photos, staging, movers, title, lenders, and home inspection. We used their people every step of the way and were glad we did. I can't say that all sellers left 2022 happy, but having worked with John and Jason Martin Group, we certainly did.

  • I worked with John Coleman to buy my first home. He was extremely helpful--it was my first time buying a home so I was a bit lost, but he offered great advice, excellent contacts for lenders and inspectors, and was responsive to all of my questions whether by email, text, or phone calls.

  • The folks I worked with at Jason Martin Group were fantastic! I needed to find a place quickly, and they were able to accomodate and show me all the properties I wanted to see. My realtor, John Coleman, helped narrow my search and find exactly the kind of place I was looking for. When it came time to make an offer, John proved to be a savvy negotiator. There were multiple offers and John made mine look the most attractive. The rest of the people I dealt with were also great, personable and always quick to answer my questions. Their excellent service continues even after settlement. I really can't say enough good things about Jason Martin Group.

  • I highly recommend the Jason Martin Group. John Coleman served as my agent as my wife and I listed a DC townhouse we put up for sale. He went above and beyond in his support. I experienced his communication as thorough and very responsive (regardless of the day or week or time of day!) -- and I appreciated his strategic advice and commitment to pushing through a range of challenges we encountered along the way.

  • Thanks to John Coleman for helping us to buy our house. He was very patient as we looked for 6+ months in several neighborhoods in the DMV. He was always spot on with recommendations for creating a winning offer but never pressured us to offer more than we felt comfortable with. He was frequently available to answer questions/show us properties or arranged for one of his team members to assist. He recommended a lender with whom we got a great rate and were able to close quickly and smoothly.

  • Working with John Coleman from the Jason Martin Group was a dream. As first time homebuyers, we literally had no idea where to begin, let alone how to tackle the process efficiently and in good spirits! John made it easy, educational, and far less intimidating.And this may seem minor, I appreciated how masterful John is at laying out the pros and cons of a home without letting personal preference creep in. He is responsive, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the real estate market. From the time we made an offer til the day we picked up our keys, John translated everything into layman's terms so we understood our rights and what we were signing.Without a doubt we will come back to John when it's time for the next move!

  • John Coleman and the team at Jason Martin Group did a fantastic job helping us throughout the home buying process. As we were first time buyers, John expertly guided us through the process while protecting our interests at every step. Our home purchase had several hiccups on the seller's end, each time we ran into a snag, John made sure we knew the potential outcomes and risks. John's professionalism and thoroughness caught several issues which unaddressed could have seriously impacted the purchase. Great communication on John's part kept us on track and informed the whole time. Thanks to John and the Jason Martin Group, we were able to purchase a great house at a competitive price.

  • The Jason Martin Group, and specifically John Coleman, came highly recommended from a colleague. We sat down for an initial meeting a year before we were ready to buy a house and from that first meeting up until we closed, we felt supported. We purchased our home using the NACA purchase program which required a lot of extra work and time. Throughout the process, John was responsive and provided us with helpful, honest advice. Both my partner and I are extremely happy with the service we received and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone else.

  • Jason and John were absolutely fantastic! It was our first home purchase and both helped us sail through the buying process. We had a very small area on Capitol Hill we were looking at and both were experts in the area. We had a fast close process and John did an excellent job on making sure we met all deadlines. I have referred John to other friends and he has continued to be an excellent advisor on issues that have arisen during home ownership.

  • John and Jason took the time to make sure we understood the process of buying a co-op. This was important as a lot of agents have shown to not be great at dealing with co-ops. Thank you, John and Jason!
