Meet The Team

“I have been working with Debra Rettberg for many years as a title agent. Her clients always come to settlement extremely pleased with her services. Debra is involved every step of the way to ensure settlements stay on track. I find her to be very professional and highly recommend her.”

“Debbie was absolutely amazing in a very difficult market. Her knowledge of the area, her resources for inspections and repairs, her patience with our many questions and unexpected obstacles all contributed to a very satisfying buying process. Debbie has incredible customer service, she was so knowledgeable and so available that it would be surprising she had any other clients, she made us feel like the most important client/task of the day. We learned so much from her and are so grateful for her advice and guidance. We purchased a 100 year old home in a very competitive market and were satisfied and successful because of her efforts. Highly recommended!!!”

“Deb is the perfect realtor! She was always there to answer any questions I had and provide all types of insight regarding any property I had been interested in and the home buying process. Deb was able to work through both my busy schedule and the low housing inventory to find the perfect house for me at a great deal. Thank you Deb!”

“Debbie did an outstanding job in all areas of our recent search and purchase of our new home. She was very patient with us during the search. After we found the perfect house, she was very knowledgeable about the process and helped guide us all the way through closing!”

“We often questioned whether or not Debbie even slept at all as she was always so responsive to our every need! We could not have asked for a better agent. She took care of us as if we were family. We will be forever grateful for her patience and for her expertise. She made sure every t was crossed every i dotted. She knew all the experts to bring in for our every need. She even found a lender with a better rate than I had found on my own! Her passion for what she does is so obvious. I am so grateful that we found her and cannot recommend her highly enough!”

“Deb was great in every respect. She was on top of every detail during the process, from helping out setting the right price, following through the inspection, and settlement. She went above and beyond. Thank you Deb!”

“It's been about a year since Debra has been in contact with me about finding the perfect house for myself. I was very anxious to begin this search, and Debbie was there EVERY step of the way. Always available for a call and to answer those difficult questions and never hesitating to guide us through putting down the perfect offer. The market has been CRAZY the past year, but with her assistance (and many viewings), we were able to find the perfect home for myself and I could not be more happy. Her hard work and dedication made it so easy and painless. It's because of her that I can finally start a new chapter in my life and I'm so excited for what the future will bring!”

“She is amazing on all levels (communication, professionalism, expertise, rapid responses, knowledge, etc.) Debra was highly recommended to me and my wife, and we’re so glad she was. This has been her career for over 20 years and it shows. We will be recommending her to friends and family, as well as using her to find our new house.”

“Debbie just sold our home on Rumsey Island from our open house; she also found us a rancher which we were looking for even before it the market. If it would have gone to market we probably couldn’t have afforded but her diligence, dedication and communication with other realtors was amazing. She was with us thru every step and went over and beyond a realtors obligations. Debbie made sure to cover all bases of the selling and buying process leaving no stone unturned. There were things she pointed in looking at houses that we wouldn’t have thought of. She is always so pleasant to deal with even when we were too stressed out to talk to. I can’t recommend her highly enough, she will never disappoint. The whole Northrop team were eager to assist when needed and very helpful.”

“Debbie, and the whole “Key Team” at Northrop were absolutely a joy. We have known Debbie and her family for many years as a family friend. She was a consummate professional every step of the way for our new home journey. Her advice was spot on. She has integrity and is clearly a respected member of her profession. Every single person she brought in to support us was kind, knowledgeable and ready to help us achieve our goals. Buying and selling a home is a stressful process… you want Debbie and her team to walk you through it all!”

“Deborah did a great job helping me buy my condo. We looked at a lot of possibilities until we narrowed it down to the best neighborhood for me. Once we found the right property, Deborah put together a competitive offer to obtain the desired result. I'm very grateful for her knowledge and expertise.”

“Debbie has been our real estate agent since 2016 and we have relied heavily on her opinions and advice when buying our homes. She has vast knowledge of the housing market and the different areas in Maryland. She is very pleasant, has great listening skills and we trust her opinions. She always responds promptly anytime we contact her regarding a property we want to view or purchase. She has expertly guided us through the closing of our properties ensuring a seamless and less stressful closure on our properties.”

“Deborah listed and helped us sell our home in August 2021. She also helped us 6 years earlier when buying this same house, which was our first home purchase.Deborah was a true professional and always available to answer our questions. We appreciated her advice and experience during our home buying and selling journeys!”

“Deborah May is friendly, helpful and will get you the real estate you want. Don’t let her friendliness fool you as she works hard, knows what she is doing and extremely assertive in getting you your property or selling a property at your best price. I highly recommend Deborah. She will be your right agent whether buying or selling. I give her a 5 star rating!”

“We knew from our first rental transaction with Debbie that we would be using her when we were ready to purchase our home in MD. Debbie was attentive, always available and informative. We loved that she was always honest and transparent.”

“Deborah was so good at her craft that I felt like I was her only client. She was very responsive and always returned my calls promptly. She was dedicated to helping me find a condo closer to my family. She concentrated on the areas that met my needs and didn’t waste time with properties that didn’t fit with my plans. What a wonderful experience it was working with Deborah May.”

“Debbie is very patient, supportive, knowledgeable, understanding and truly wants her client to find the best home that is a fit for them. She always promptly responds to messages of any type – voice, text, email. She is a lovely person too! I highly recommend her without hesitation!”

“Deborah was great! She was referred to me by a family member and I was not disappointed. Me and my girlfriend are fairly picky on what type of home we wanted and looked at several places. Even so, she was very courtious, patient, answered all questions, and always had a smile on her face. I will refer anyone who is looking to buy/sell their home to Deborah May! Great job!<br/><br/>-chris”

“Delightful Long and Foster Agent. Very good at what she does.”

“Used Steve 10 years ago for the purchase of my first home. Connected with him again for the purchase of a new home and sale of my old home. He made the process as painless as possible. He provided timely updates and was able to negotiate a higher than listing price for the sale of my old home. Would recommend him to everyone.”

“The Northrop team and my realtor, Steven, were very supportive, responsive, and assisted with all aspects of selling my beautiful home. I would not use any other team if I was going to buy or sell another house. They were great!”
