Eric was recommended to us from a former customer. From my first conversation with him, I felt that he understood our requirements. He carefully told us what steps would be required, and did most of the work for us. He recommended a selling price, which we told him to increase. He told us that there was a lot of interest, but potential buyers felt the price was too high. once we reduced the price to his original recommendation, to unit sold immediately and settled in less that 30 days. I would highly recommend Eric and his team for everyone who is buying or selling. Phil Lehman

Erich is an extraordinarily talented real estate professional. He provided clear guidance and options regarding listing, showing, & selling our home in Northwest DC. He was spot on regarding the listing price and our home was sold in record time. We have worked with several agents in the DC metro area and consider Erich as the best!

We met Erich Cabe years ago selling homes in the Forest Hills area of NW Washington DC. We went to several of his open houses. He was very knowledgeable on all matters of real estate and could always answer my questions. So when it came time to sell our home we called Erich. We met several times before listing our home. We decided to move out of the house so it could be painted and staged for maximum impact. My wife and I moved to Florida during the process. Erich and his team took care of everything and kept in touch with us on a regular basis. In the end, our home looked wonderful and sold over $100,000 above the listing price. We were very pleased! I would highly recommend Erich and his team at Compass.

Beyond being a great agent, Erich is a great guy. In a business where trustworthiness is key, its so critical to find someone like Erich. He guided us through a process of about 6 months that included finishing a contract with tenants, preparing the condo to sell and eventually selling it and gave us very good advise. The condo sold for more than what we hoped in a difficult market, and we attribute that in part for his very good advise and professionalism. It was wonderful to work with him and we would do so again in the future.

My husband and I interviewed at least 10 agents until we found Erich. His appreciation and love for our home came through right away and that is what we wanted. He suggested the highest price, but we didn't choose him for that reason; it was because he had a plan to get there. The Compass Concierge program was icing on the top! Erich was so calm and professional in all aspects of our house sale. It was listed and three days later we had 2 offers both over asking price. We would recommend Erich with enthusiasm!!

If you happen to be in the market for an excellent real estate agent I would like to suggest Eric Cabe. We hired Erich after meeting a number of other excellent, highly skilled professionals because he was the only one who checked off all the boxes. Extremely knowledgeable, highly personable and always available (even when on vacation), he was absolutely great to work with in every respect. Thanks to the guidance he provided and the strategy he employed we were able to sell our property in a matter of days and at a higher price than we were expecting. It was in a word a smashing success! Please call him if you are in the market for a house or interested in selling – he will make it happen! Erich Cabe Team O:301.298.1001 [*** Link removed ***]

Erich is a phenomenal agent. He knows every in and out of the process (and of homes - huge for people like us who don't know the technical details of what to look for/watch out for, etc.). He also does not force his opinions on you. Erich knows details of lots of areas (a benefit of having many clients in many places throughout the DMV area) - he gave us good info about the community we settled on. During the closing process, he was an amazing advocate for us - he negotiated extremely well and got us the absolute best terms. Finally, he is incredibly affable and really cares about his clients - he was like a member of our family through the process of finding our house. We cannot recommend him (and his team - they were on top of every little detail) highly enough. You could not find a better agent and team than Erich and team Cabe.

We hired Erich to sell our house in McLean and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Since we were first-time sellers, we were a little unsure of the process. He walked us through every step and answered every question promptly and thoroughly. Erich is honest and knows the market, so we trusted his advice. Our first day on the market, we received an all cash, full price offer. He negotiated flawlessly and we closed three weeks later. We have recommended him to everyone we know because he really is the best!

Erich was very professional, responsive and patient with us through the entire process and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. He even knew the seller's agent and what to expect, which made life even easier. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy/sell their house. He will take care of you.

Erich is an excellent realtor and a true professional in the best sense of the word. He provided my wife and me with excellent advice on how to sell and present our home, and he did an outstanding job marketing it. We faced a tough market, with several other similar properties in the neighborhood coming on just when ours did, but Erich was able to generate three offers in the first two days of the house coming on the market -- we accepted an offer above our asking price within the week, and closed shortly thereafter. We couldn't be more delighted with the result, and Erich was a pleasure to work with throughout.

Mr. Cabe was the best call we made in the entire real estate process. He was extremely professional, very responsive, highly knowledgeable, and very attentive to our needs. He kept the buying and selling process of our homes simple, efficient, and continually moving forward. Even when challenges did arise, he helped us maintain perspective, gave us viable solutions, and did so with a sense of humor. He put us in touch with highly respected and reputable professionals in the real estate field with regards to the home inspection, lenders, and closing. No matter what was going on or how busy, Mr. Cabe always made us feel that we were his most important clients. We never felt pressured, rushed, or dismissed. It was an absolute pleasure working with Mr. Cabe and the people he recommended. I would not hesitate to work with him in the future.

Erich helped us navigate the challenging task of selling our home and buying a new one at the same time. His meticulous attention to detail, prompt response time and negotiating skills helped us sell our old property quickly for a great price, while finding the new home of our dreams. I highly recommend Erich and his team.

We recently sold our home in Washington, DC with the help of Erich Cabe.

Erich is the consummate professional-- knowledgeable about local market conditions and the intricate details of Washington's real estate regulations and taxation policies. We found him to be honest and forthright. While it took a while to sell our unique house, Erich was persistent in finding new ways to market the house and reach potential buyers. He offered excellent advice on staging and ways to make the house more attractive to potential buyers. When we decided to move before the house was sold, Erich regularly checked on the house to ensure that there were no problems and handled all the details of the final inspection and other issues associated with the final sale on our behalf. I highly recommend that you consider using Erich as your real estate agent if you are living in Washington or suburban Maryland.

Erich patiently spent nearly a year with us showing us homes in Bethesda and Chevy Chase, MD for my husband and I and our three sons and nanny. We found several homes we loved, but were not quite right due to size or location. We finally found a home we both loved in the winter and made an offer that was accepted under the asking price. Erich was then able to sell our home BEFORE IT EVER WENT ON THE MARKET. We took his advice and made preparations to our home like painting the interior and he showed it to his top 1% network of agents. After just a couple of weeks, we had an offer on the home that we accepted. We had planned to go on vacation for Erich to sell the house for 10 days. And instead of waiting stressfully, we were able to rest and relax knowing that the house had sold. Erich went above and beyond his job in so many ways for us working nights and weekends. We are moving into our new home next week and could not be happier. We recommend Erich without question and would be happy to give a personal reference by phone or email if needed.

Erich is the consummate professional!

He was highly recommended to me by my architect and he fully lived up to his reputation as the best realtor.

My contemporary home is fairly unique for the DC market and has some distinctive features that many appreciate, but those with small children might find concerning. Thus, narrowing the market for potential buyers.  Erich went to work immediately. His marketing of my home was comprehensive. He had a professional photographer take photos of my home and had a professional company produce detailed floor plans of my home to be posted on the internet.  He featured my home on his website, ecrealtor.com, and posted it on Coldwell Banker?s website, the Coldwell Banker Previews International website for luxury real estate, and other websites as well. Erich held multiple open houses and engaged his colleagues to assist as needed. Erich printed large glossy brochures with photos, floor plans and highlighted key features of the house for prospective buyers. He printed a large glossy postcard that was mailed to the surrounding area.  

In addition, he advertised my home in multiple publications from the Washington Post and NY Times to upscale magazines.  Erich is very detailed and was always responsive whenever I contacted him; day, night or weekends. In addition, he is a pleasure to deal with and his advice is sound. I always felt that he kept my best interests in the forefront. My home was on the market during the ?summer doldrums,? but Erich found a family that loves the home as much as I do and are excited to move in soon.

I highly recommend Erich and his team. I would not even consider using a different agent to buy or sell a home in the DC area. He?s the best.

When we decided to sell our beloved Colonial Village house, we turned to the realtor who sold it to us to begin with.
Throughout the entire process, Erich was professional, capable, helpful, accessible, and results oriented. He had a professional
stager evaluate our house and give us recommendations, free of charge, and sent in a professional photographer to take photos of our house. What a difference both made! The stager helped us arrange our house to play up its strengths (which is hard to do when you love your house and can’t imagine how someone else wouldn’t love it immediately). The photographer painstakingly took gorgeously-lit photographs which were worlds above iPhone photographs or the ones I can take with my camera.
The staging and the photographs came together in a lovely full-color, professional photographic brochure Erich produced (again, free of charge) which we believe helped sell the house.
From pricing the house, to timing of the listing, to negotiating the final contract, inspections, and closing, Erich was
consistently a pleasure to work with. He is reliable, easy to reach by phone, knowledgeable, and very helpful.
He made what could have been an overwhelmingly stressful process smooth and easy. We would highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling a house in DC.

The DC market is crazy so the process took several months. Erich was patient with me and the process and did not try yo push me into anything I didn't want or pressure me in anyway. in fact, he talked me out of making decisions that did not adhere to what i wanted. i was nervous and uneducated as a first time homebuyer and he often acted as a sounding Board/therapist when the process got frustrating. He made himself constantly available and when there was a property that came up that I HAD to SEE and he was occupied he would send one of his teammates to assist. He taught me how to be competitive in the market and pointed out not only the good thing about properties but also the flaws. Top notch service! Erich will help me sell my condo when the time comes and will help me buy a new home someday.

Erich was very attentive and responsive in dealing with the sale of my condo.  Once we agreed to list it he went ahead and immediately prepared it for an open house.  It sold in the first weekend!

"Congratulations [member name removed]. I'm happy that we were able to sell your condo for a great price and help you purchase your newer and larger home much closer to work. I'm looking forward to the house warming party!"
