Thanks so much, Mike!! We are enjoying home ownership so far (well, except for having to clean 4 bathrooms!). We really appreciate everything you've done - we were very happy to have you on our side!
And we spent the $400 we saved on title insurance last night at Target and Bed Bath and Beyond :) Thanks again for everything.Ali and Chris Ackermann
It is our pleasure to recommend you to our friends because we know you will make them as happy as you have made us. We've now been in our house for six months and we still feel lucky to live here. And with all the "snow days" we've had this winter, we are thrilled to have a cozy home to be snowed in. Thanks again

I am writing to describe the outstanding work of Michael Vechery in working on my recent commercial real estate needs. I was and remain very impressed with Michael's abilities. He has a true command of real estate and the many varied interactions and relationships that surround a real estate transaction. Michael's knowledge of the market is excellent and his communication with me was thorough, detailed, professional and enjoyable. As my representative, he displayed outstanding negotiation abilities as he dealt with other agents to obtain the best terms possible for the needed space. Michael's updates on the transaction provided me with the total picture of the process. Above all, he was straightforward, attentive and I could count on him to move fast and respond with the necessary efficiency of a true professional. I would recommend Michael Vechery to anyone seeking a real estate agent of the highest quality. He was a joy to work with and I plan to utilize his services whenever I have a commercial real estate need.

Mike Vechery served as our commercial real estate broker in 2003. Our national non-profit organization had reached the end of a 10 year lease and we had to make some very important decisions that we would have to live with for many years.We went through an extensive process of looking at other buildings, weighing all of the factors involved in a move, etc. To be honest, we were very slow and deliberate because this is a huge decision that impacts our budget in a significant way.Mike consistently provided information, helped us weigh our options, and even drew out a spreadsheet for us with cost comparisons. He has been supportive and in constant contact. Mike has made an effort to get to know our organization and our needs. He has listened and been a sounding board for me as I weighed teh multitude of options. I am not sure we would have been able to ensure due diligence without his participation.

Mike Vechery is a most personable, intelligent, and enthusiastic agent to have working on your behalf-especially in this uncertain real estate market. We benefitted from his services last summer, and he came through for us in the nick of time-finding a buyer for our West End condo at out asking price just days before we were to close on our present home. Needless to say, we recommend him highly. He has good ideas, but also listens to his clients' suggestions. Best of all, he knows how to close a deal!

We would like to offer our highest praise and recommendation for Mike Vechery, our real estate broker and advisor. Mike consulted us on the purchase of our condominium at Woodley Park Towers in June 2006. He invested quality time with us, listened intently, gave us all of our options, provided us recommendations on finance and settlement companies, and gave us the sequence of events leading up to our purchase. Mike negotiated a great price and solid terms for our first transaction and home. He was an invaluable asset and gave us the peace of mind we needed throughout this process. We would recommendMike to all buyers or sellers of real estate. Mike's real estate knowledge, communication skills, and understanding of our needs exceeded our expectations. We plan on utilizing his real estate services in the future. Please call us if you have any questions about Mike or if you need additional information.

The purpose of this letter is to give my highest recommendation to Broker/Realtor Michael H. Vechery, who sold my apartment at the Metropolitan in June 2006 for the highest price ever paid in that building. Mike's marketing and advertising skills were unsurpassed. My husband George and I were impressed with the ads he placed; the targeted mailings; and the open house he conducted. We can also vouch for his integrity-after receiving a first offer we thought was too low, he did not pressure us to accept the offer, despite his vested interest in selling the unit. When he thought he found buyers who were serious, his negotiation and communication skills quickly closed the deal on both sides. It was a smooth, efficient transaction, and I would recommend his service to anyone in need of an outstanding consultant. As Mike promised, in a month, our unit was sold at a price we were delighted to accept. If you have any questions or would like further information, I would be happy to speak with you. I can be reached at 202-663-2164.

Thank you so much for giving me the amazing opportunity to work for you and your company, 1050 Real Estate, during the summer of 2007. As you well know, there were many reasons why I chose to work for you over the summer. As an aspiring entrepreneur and a full-time college student, 1050 Real Estate presented me with the opportunity to get hands-on, real world experience with a successful start-up. You gave me insight as to how a small company operates on a day-to-day basis by allowing me to consult on your website, marketing plan and materials, and on your overall business strategy and long-term goals. In doing these tasks, you assisted me in my ability to make split-second decisions. Furthermore, you helped me to realize the concept of revenue-generating activities and non-revenue-generating activities, and how to apply this concept to operating a business. Additionally, under your guidance, I was able to develop my cold-calling skills and build effective sales techniques. At the end of the summer, writing a business plan for your company, 1050 Real Estate, allowed me to reflect on everything that I had learned and accomplished over the course of the summer and to sharpen my business plan writing skills. Mike, you were truly a great mentor. It is obvious to me now that you epitomize entrepreneurship in every aspect of the word. You have been inspirational and for that I am infinitely grateful for the opportunity that you have given me. I would not hesitate to contact you as a mentor, but more importantly as a friend, in the future if I am seeking advice for any of my endeavors.
