"I worked with Andrew (Andy) on my first home purchase. He was exceptional, thorough and a lot of fun to work with. Andy made a seemingly daunting process in a HIGHLY competitive market much easier and enjoyable. It was my first rodeo, so I was facing a bit of a learning curve and a fairly tight timeline. He guided me every step of the way, was extremely savvy, flexible and always made himself available. Most importantly, his depth of knowledgeable about the DC market, value, and each individual property and street block was impressive and, frankly, indispensable. His job didn't end after closing - he was an excellent resource for advice and recommendations on renovations and contractor services, as well. You get much more than a realtor and not a hint of BS with him, whatsoever. I wouldn't hire anyone else."

"Andrew is fantastic. I bought a place with him in Shaw and he couldn’t have made it easier. Would 10 out of 10 recommend!"

"I worked with Andrew to sell my first home. He was very professional and responsive, and always thought ahead to ensure everything was lined up for a smooth listing and sale. Very easy to work with and provided valuable insight."

"Andrew Smith and team are consummate real estate professionals, and we cannot recommend them highly enough for selling a home. They worked as a team to guide us through the listing process from afar, and went above and (way) beyond at every stage--from helping to line up contractors to finish small projects, to ensuring our home was staged meticulously and that the photos and videos captured the unique details of our home. Selling a home can be a tremendously stressful process, but not with Lockard + Smith."

"We decided to work with Lockard + Smith as first time home buyers because they immediately put us at ease about the process and were so personable to talk with. Andrew found us an amazing place to call home in a historically competitive market. We look forward to continuing to rely on their expertise in the DC housing market in the future and would highly recommend!"

"Andrew Smith was a terrific agent. He helped us both buy and sell our home. He took the time to understand our family and our needs, provided sound and honest advise and always was diligent, thorough and respectful. When we visited homes he understood our needs well and was able to guide without pressure or towards more costly options. He also prepped us and our home for sale with ease and understanding. Honestly, his care for our family and needs and the professionals he involved in all aspects from financing to staging was amazing. Could not recommend Andrew more strongly — he is amazing!"

"I can't say enough good things about Andrew. We worked with him twice over the 5 years one to buy a condo and then 5 years later to sell the same condo. He has been super responsive very reliable and very professional. Andrew made the process super easy for us he helped us with selling our furniture, staging the place and gave us great advice with vendors to prepare the place for sale. Everything went very smoothly and I would like to work with him in the future."

"Andrew is excellent. As a first time homebuyer, I was very wary of the process and he walked me through it all! My wants developed overtime as I saw more properties and he was able to adapt and help find the perfect spot without ever making me feel pressured to buy something that wasn’t a good fit. You will be hard pressed to find a better guide in your home buying journey!"

"As a doctor, my time is valuable and I rely on working with a team I can trust. Andrew and his team has consistently been warm, reliable and engaged with a thoughtful understanding that made both me and my family very comfortable throughout the process of finding a new home. I could not be happier with my choice to work with Andrew and have recommended him without reservation to friends and colleagues who are looking to buy in the Washington, DC."

"We came to Andrew with a vague mission of helping us find a large rental property to diversify our income. He knows the DC market like the back of his hand. He noticed a price drop on a property with great rental potential based on its proximity to the convention center. He met us quickly for a tour, helped us run the numbers and then had us under contract on the same day. His professional negotiation skills and understanding of levers we could pull to be advantageous with the offer were outstanding. Andrew takes a strategic lens to making sure he wins for his buyers at every turn. During the closing process, he became a strategic adviser to us throughout closing. He is always one step ahead of his clients, which is hard to find."

"Andrew is a joy to work with. Before meeting him, we had worked with a number of other realtors, and I always felt like they were primarily focused on up selling us rather than listening to our needs. Andrew came highly recommended to me by a good friend and was such a breath of fresh air. I was blown away by his complete mastery of the market and how easy it was to work with him. He is also extremely efficient and responsive—he always replies immediately to communications and is easy to get in touch with. He will go out of his way to make the entire process as streamlined and tailored to your needs as possible. Andrew was and continues to be an amazing resource and we have wholeheartedly recommended him to several of our friends and family members, which in my book is the strongest vote of confidence one can have."

"I strongly recommend Andrew to help anyone with their next home purchase. He is extremely knowledgeable and ALWAYS had the patience to deal with my various, often times basic, questions as they would arise. Time and again I was impressed with his understanding of the DC market, constriction trends and dedication to me throughout the process. Of note, I also greatly appreciated his advice on the true condition of the homes we visited and what to be on the look out for in certain neighborhoods. I will be sure to use him for my next purchase."

"If you wish to feel comfortable and confident while making a real estate transaction, I strongly recommend that you engage Lockard + Smith. I have bought or sold 12 properties across my life—and no agent that has represented me has been better than him. He embodies a rare mix of characteristics that I have come to value in a real estate agent: knowledge, diligence, and respect. From our first conversation I could tell that Andrew knew the local (DC) market well. In short, I felt very confident that I could leave all details to him and that my interests were being represented fully. Were I to tackle another real estate project in this area, I would go to no other than Lockard + Smith."

"Andrew This group has exceeded all our expectations and has won us over as clients for as long as he is in the business. Buying a home can be a very stressful especially when you're in a competitive market like DC. We were competing against 2 other buyers, one of them had a lot more money, Andrew went in person to represent my family and to fight for us. If it weren't for him, we would never have gotten this home. Any realtor can write up an offer but only a few go that extra mile. Once we got the house, the team wasted no time and within a few days, our condo was on the market and we had multiple offers. When it was time to pick our buyer, Andrew walked us through every option and gave us all the information and sound advice we needed to make the best choice. He is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, friendly and considerate. We were really lucky to have had the opportunity to work with him. He is truly the Ritz-Carlton of realtors."
