Maura not only helped us sell our home that was 1.5 hours away, but she also helped us find a new home that we could afford. It's a beautiful home and in a great location for us. Maura is amazing.

Maura is not your typical realtor. She has the experience and knowledge to guide you through the buying and selling process and fully answer your questions as you go along. She is great at thinking ‘outside of the box’, will listen to your needs but also make suggestions you may not have thought of, all the while keeping your best interest at heart. She is very responsive and truly cares about helping you make the right choices throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Maura to anyone.

We recently bought our dream house with the help of Maura. She is a very dedicated realtor, and helped us negotiate and land our forever home. Our situation was very intricate and complicated, but Maura’s knowledge and experience helped us navigate through rounds of paper work, decisions and deadlines. Having someone like Maura on your side takes a lot of the stress and worry out of the home buying process. She was extremely responsive, and always available to explain things to us and answer our numerous questions. We couldn't have had a better experience working with Maura, and we thank her so much for helping us land our home!

Maura has nearly two decades of experience in all facets of real estate, and it is with 100% confidence that I recommend Maura White-Howard as your realtor of choice. Maura not only secured 3 qualified offers for us to select from, and sold our home in under 3 months time from listing our home in November to the time of settlement in February, she proactively remediated every issue that arose, to ensure the settlement went through seamlessly. It is a fact, that 90% of all real estate transactions are closed by 10% of the realtors in the area. Maura White-Howard is in the top 10% of realtors serving the areas in, and around, Chester and Lancaster Counties in Pennsylvania. If you want a realtor with a proven track record in all facets of real estate, an unwavering commitment to excellence, and a realtor that gets results, Maura White-Howard is the realtor of choice.

Maura was referred to me by a friend and I would do the same. She was very thorough in her research and suggestions for house preparation before listing. The result was a quick sell and timely settlement dates set and adjusted as necessary for both buyers and me.

Maura is the best! My wife and I have used her twice to buy homes, and also to sell our old home, and she was wonderful to work with throughout both experiences. She is honest, upfront and has your best interest in mind. I would recommend Maura to everyone I know who is interested in buying or selling a home.

As a first-time homebuyer, Maura was fantastic at helping me understand the whole process. She was very quick to get us scheduled for showings, and she did a thorough job at helping me to make my decisions well and informed each time we walked through a new home!

According to Google, the definition of a realtor is, “a person who acts as an agent for the sale and purchase of buildings and land; a real estate agent.” I’m sure you can find hundreds (maybe even thousands) of realtors in the Philadelphia area. But for my wife and I, we wanted someone more than just a person acting on our behalf during the home buying process. As first-time home buyers we sought an agent that possessed many qualities. Outside of her 20+ years of experience practicing real estate in the Philadelphia area, Maura White-Howard possessed many of the qualities that made my wife and I feel top of mind during the home buying process—something that is often lost with high volume real estate agents. Maura White-Howard was readily available at most hours of the day and night by phone, email and text. Maura, always seemed to put us first during the home buying process. Maura showed my wife and I over 20+ homes before finding the perfect one in late August of 2016. From house one to house twenty, Maura displayed a level of patience that many realtors do not retain as the months go by. As first-time home buyers, we dealt with many challenges in a very, very experienced and expensive market. Maura displayed zero frustration and looked at the next week of homes like it was the very first time she met us. She met us on weekends and week nights and did whatever it took to make us happy. She was continually bubbly, cheerful and displayed a smile on her face each time we met, looking all over Chester County, from townhomes and single families to row homes, before finding the perfect home in the heart of Phoenixville borough. When it came time to execute the purchase of the home, Maura managed 100% of the communication between us and the sellers. She outlined a game plan and go-forward strategy accompanied with dates and times, from inspections to settlement day. Maura was also well connected when it came to shopping for inspectors, brokers and mortgage insurance. Maura stood by our side 100% until the very end when she congratulated us with a gift card to Home Depot. My wife and I highly recommend Maura White-Howard for anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We will 100% ask Maura to represent us for our next home purchase.

Maura had originally sold our daughter's house to her. when our daughter passed away in November we found Maura's card in the paperwork from the original sale and gave her a call. she was extremely helpful in answering our questions and in doing what was necessary to sell the home. She was constantly keeping us updated on the sale. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the West Chester area.

Maura used her many years of experience combined with patient perseverance to get the deal done. Ours was a very complicated deal and her wealth of knowledge and thoughtful way of relaying information in layman's terms was exactly what was needed. We are grateful for her incredible work-ethic and ever-approachable personality.

Maura has aided us in buying and selling our houses. She has also gotten us a place to stay while waiting for settlement on our second house. Had it not been for Maura, we would have had to search on our own and that could
have been a long period probably spent in a motel or hotel. We had no worries with Maura on our side. Frank Morse & Carole Bracey.

We are extremely pleased with Maura's level of service, knowledge and commitment to her career. She helped us price our home competitively in a tough market and we sold in 6 days! Maura then helped us navigate through a complicated home purchase, with ease and confidence. We couldn't be happier!

We have bought two homes and sold one with Maura's help. She has also represented two of our daughters with their homes. Mike and I would never dream of proceeding in a real estate transaction without Maura by our side. She is so knowledgeable, she looks out for our best interest, she is the sweetest and kindest person I ever met and she works so very, very hard. If you choose Maura as your real estate person, you will be in the best hands.

Maura was working hard for us every step of the way. When the first buyer’s loan was suddenly canceled less than 7 days before settlement, it didn’t stop Maura. She sold the house again in 24 hours and we closed within 21 days. Thanks, Maura.

Maura stayed on top of the details and kept an open line of communication throughout the process of selling my home. She explained the steps well and really understands the local market dynamics. I would be confident in using her in the future and would definitely recommend her to others.

Maura (and Zeke sometimes) helped us by being patient, answering tons of questions, being proactive, and helped us coordinate more effectively with our mortgage team. Maura is flexible, knowledgeable, professional, and just all-around amazing! We didn't think we could find something in our price range, but she helped us and it's a beautiful home! I can't say enough about Maura. She made the house selling (we sold our previous home 1.5 hours away) process much less stressful than it would have been. She also helped us communicate as needed with everything else. AMAZING!

Maura is awesome! She does an amazing job at answering all of your questions you have! I reached out to her on Friday afternoon and we had a meeting set up the next day. I amlooking to buy my first house, and she helped me understand all of my options and laid out a step by step plan for me. She is very personable and easy to talk to, and I felt very comfortable with her. If you are a first time home buyer and are unsure if you would even qualify, go see Maura, you won’t regret it!!

Maura is an experienced and dedicated realtor. She met us when we were in the process of selling and buying a home and she took care of us. She is thorough and detailed in providing up to date information throughout the house-buying process. She truly cares about finding you the house you will eventually call home. She was always looking out for what was in our best interest. It was a pleasure working with such a knowledgeable and compassionate realtor and I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.
