If you are looking to purchase a waterfront property, Chris McNelis is your agent. She has been working in the Solomons area for many years and specializes in waterfront estates and properties. If I were going to purchase a waterfront home in the Southern Maryland area, I would only trust Chris.

Chris and the Chris McNelis Realty professionals are the best. They were friendly and genuine. They listened carefully to our needs and were sensitive and alert, communicating regularly and always available.

Their experience and depth of knowledge regarding the current and ever-changing realty market was excellent. They were able to provide the most valuable guidance.

Their knowledge and command of the use and access to digital marketing was another plus! You can’t go wrong working with Chris McNelis and her group.

Chris helped us sell our former home at top value (still picking our jaws off the ground!) and gave us excellent advice on being a competitive buyer on our new home purchase (with multiple offers), ultimately getting us the house we wanted at a good price and in the time frame we wanted. She is amazing!

We had a truly wonderful experience with Chris McNelis and the PenFed Berkshire Hathaway Solomons team. From the very beginning, they showed not only professionalism and deep knowledge, but a genuine compassion that meant so much during a difficult transition with my parents. Their exceptional customer service, expertise, quality, patience, and especially their gentle, supportive approach made me feel cared for every step of the way.

Their expert understanding of the market, and their ability to position both our properties properties realistically and thoughtfully, gave me an incredible sense of trust and confidence during a time when it was needed most.

If you’re looking for a real estate team that is reliable, trustworthy, and truly cares about the people they serve, I cannot recommend them enough. They made an overwhelming process smooth, manageable, and even comforting. I will absolutely return to them for any future needs.

Stefon was wonderful to work with, he perused all avenues of options for us and indulged us with his experience in the field. He helped us understand each process throughout home hunting and buying. Very and highly appreciated! The team there is great.

Diana is fast, knowledgeable and very friendly. She sold our home quickly and was always willing to take time to answer questions and explain the process. Anything we needed was addressed immediately.

Sold our home in 8 days with Chris’ professional recommendations.

Chris has a solid reputation as the premier realtor for waterfront and unique properties in Southern Maryland. I know; I have now used Chris twice to sell a home in Calvert County.

Additionally, she found a wonderful townhouse rental in a marina community that I enjoyed for the two years between these homes.

Don't use Chris if you aren't willing to ensure your house is in top condition, read: investment and work. The result is being able to list a house at top dollar. After a few home projects, we were not shy about our listing price for 2320 Miles Way. We had multiple offers in 8 days and were able to choose the full-price offer with no home sales contingency... in a down market and over the holidays. Pretty amazing.

Chris knows exactly what to focus on to prep the home for sale. As an example, we put new cooking appliances in the kitchen to increase the kitchen's appeal. She knew the market and was positive that a 5000 sq ft post and beam home on 2.6acres less than 1000 ft from a community beach on the Chesapeake Bay would be an outlier, not necessarily affected by the market downturn. She was correct!

Chris used a professional photographer that captured the home at its best. She turned that into a web presence that was impressive and appealing.

During the offers and negotiations phase, I counted on her wise counsel. We did provide some consideration for a replacement roof, but the other nits from the inspector were remedied quickly by trades professionals that she has in her well-developed network. The result was a maximum return.

Through all of this, Chris is always available for a call or a text. Her team backs her up well if she has a conflict. Her demeanor is friendly and informative. It has been a pleasure to work with Chris and her associate Will as we sold ‘Westbay'. Thanks for the opportunity to share my experiences with this professional.

Chris was great to work with through the entire home-buying process. She was very responsive, made sure I was comfortable with all of the procedures, and helped me put together an offer that beat several others in a hot market. I was able to get the home I wanted! She knows the local market inside and out and gets deals done. I would highly recommend Chris for any real estate needs you may have.

Megan was nothing short of a rockstar drummer in a major band; probably Metallica or Van Halen, controlling the beat. She's essentially a Navy SEAL within the Realtor community; a hunter if you may. She found our land literally within minutes, set up a meeting with a civil engineer for advice, drew up a contract immediately, and stayed with us for anything we needed during the entirety of closing. She has subject matter expert vibes, strong IQ, sage technical knowledge of the community, and incredible interpersonal negotiation skills. I can't recommend her enough! She is by far the best Realtor in the entirety of the United States to include Guam, Puerto Rico, and 12 other territories. What a treasure you have here locally at your brokerage, Chris.
