We originally had our home listed by another prominent agency, and their lack of transparency drove us to make a change to Brad, Joe, and the Kappel team. We put a plan in place, and with their help and guidance our house sold in 5 days! Joe Bray was outstanding. He personally attended the open house and every showing we had so he could detail the salient points of our home. We highly recommend Brad and Joe.

We have bought and sold many properties over the past 30 years, and this home sale was easily the most satisfying experience with a real estate broker in our lifetime. Brad and his Team have mastered the entire selling process, including providing realistic guidance around list price, setting true expectations on market/buyer demand, offering outstanding communication during the entire process, and professional assistance during seller/buyer negotiations. When Brad and his team take on a listing, they are forming a quantifiable business relationship with their customers, you are not just another listing. Even though they mostly serve high-end property owners, they also help with the little things that need attention during the process. They are truly a full-service firm. It's easy to see why they are recognized nationally as a top tier real estate broker. Thank you Brad and Team for a job well-done. You truly exceeded our expectations.

We recently sold our waterfront house in Annapolis overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. Brad Kappel and his team guided us at every step of the way, from advice on staging and bringing the house to market, to helping us navigate challenging market circumstances, to getting the best possible price. Brad's knowledge of the Chesapeake Bay area, and Annapolis in particular, was a key asset at every step. His savvy insights into market dynamics and how best to present the house to prospective buyers was invaluable. Brad or a member of his team hosted every showing, ensuring that interested buyers were given deep insight into the value of the house and its many attributes. Since we were not in the Annapolis area during most of the time that the house was on the market, his hands-on and competent approach gave us comfort that things were being properly attended to and presented. Brad's outstanding relationship with a wide network of real estate agents also helped through positive and honest contacts with those who saw the house. He helped us navigate the occasionally thorny issue of responding to offers with a fact-based and logical approach that helped us overcome initial challenges and arrive at a very favorable position. Brad also brought a personal approach to dealing with us personally. He was always available for questions and to discuss strategy. In the end, we credit Brad and his team with helping us navigate the challenging housing market and arriving at a high value outcome. Anyone looking to list a waterfront home in the Annapolis area should do themselves a favor and contact Brad. You are guaranteed a good experience with a favorable outcome. One could not ask for a better advocate and trusted advisor.

I gave Brad an impossible task - to sell my home in 10 days during a gap between tenants, and to get us a close date 60 days beyond that. He and his team delivered: we got an all-cash offer with no contingencies, and the close date we wanted. We were not his biggest clients, but he treated us as if we were.

Working with Brad Kappell was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. He was a true professional every step of the way—responsive, knowledgeable, and always made us feel like a top priority. Brad treated us like new business, even though we knew he was juggling a full plate. Every question we had was answered quickly (often within minutes via text), and every interaction made us feel like we were his most important client. If you’re looking for a realtor who goes above and beyond, Brad is the one you want in your corner.

We truly cannot say enough good things about Brad Kappel. He sold our waterfront home off market and in record time, which still amazes us! From the very beginning, Brad brought a level of professionalism that immediately gave us confidence—but it was his warmth, honesty, and genuine care that really set him apart. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, yet down-to-earth and personable—exactly the kind of person you want representing your home.

Brad made the process seamless and stress-free, and we always felt like we were in the best hands. If you have a waterfront property to sell, he is your guy. Brad knows the market inside and out, and he truly goes above and beyond for his clients. We’re so grateful for all he did for us!

Brad Kappel and his team were wonderful to work with in selling our home. Brad was personally involved in all aspects of the process.

I hired Brad already knowing that he is the number one agent in Maryland and my expectations were very high. Brad and his team surpassed even my very high expectations. From the very first meeting Brad was very professional and very well prepared. His detailed knowledge of the market and of the anatomy of a home are impressive. All the steps, from the listing to the closing were performed with an extraordinary attention to details and professionalism. Brad is very resourceful and has a great team. Brad listened to my intensions and desires regarding the listing and sale of my home and made sure that, at the end of the transaction I will be happy with the outcome. He and his team had the patience to support me until I obtained the sale price that I was happy with. Brad, Mistie, Alex and Joe, thank you so very much for making the sale of my home a such pleasant, wonderful, extraordinary and fruitful experience. Thank you from my heart!

There are a lot of want to be so called waterfront realtors in the Anne Arundel County and Annapolis areas, but there is only one waterfront realtor with a proven track record. That realtor is Brad Kappel. We listed our waterfront home on the Magothy River with him and in less then two weeks on the market we were under contract. 14 days later after ratifying the contract we went to settlement. One of the fastest real estate transactions I have ever experienced.
From start to finish the experience was smooth and first class all the way with Brad Kappel and his staff. We have already told Brad what we are looking for in our next waterfront home when we come back to the area in about two years from now.

Brad, Misty and the Team did an amazing job representing and selling our property. They were professional, always available for questions, and provided an amazing video of our property. When we originally met with Brad, he told us how he would market our home. He told us our home would sell within a few weeks by people that wanted a second home, living in Northern Virginia, and they would want to purchase our furniture. Sure enough, two weeks after listing our home, it sold for asking price and the new owners purchased most of our furniture and our boat! We highly recommend using Brad and his team, especially for high end coastal properties.

Brad and his team did a fantastic job! We needed to sell our Eastport home in under a week in order for our contingent purchase contract to go through. He coordinated with our other realtor and as soon as we were under contract to purchase our new home, he mobilized his team into action. Photos were taken immediately, our listing went live shortly thereafter, and marketing was sent out to his vast network. Ultimately, we had multiple full-ask offers within two days. Brad was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and efficient which resulted in an extremely pleasant selling experience.

Brad did a wonderful job selling our house.

In a tricky market,, we were able to get a full price offer in just a week. Thank you!

Brad's experience in the housing and renovation business prior to his going into real estate gives him the upper hand over other agents. His specialization in waterfront homes also gives him an edge over competitors in terms of inside knowledge of sellers, communities, and niche considerations for such properties. He has an excellent grasp on how much a house is actually worth/how much it will be appraised for, how much different rooms will cost to re-design, and who to contact to get various home projects done. He is open, honest, and sincere in his work to try find you your ideal waterfront home and makes the transition from searching to buying as simple and stress-free as possible. He will work with your budget, preferences, and timeline to help you find the fixer-upper or turnkey home of your dreams and is still available even beyond the purchase to provide additional assistance to fully settle in. If you are looking for a waterfront home in or around the Annapolis area (or are planning to sell your waterfront house), we highly recommend Brad!

Update:
We loved working with Brad and so when it came to selling our home, we again relied on his services. He not only had our house under contract within 10 days, but at a profit. If we ever move back to the area, we will be sure to rely on him again.

I researched many real estate agents in my area before meeting with Brad Kappel. He had multiple active and recently sold listings at the time. His name stood out because it seemed to be everywhere in the market. I was a bit concerned initially due to our home value being somewhat less than his other listings. My wife and I met with Brad and were impressed with his knowledge and demeanor. We hired him. He and Mistie Schleeper, his associate, were able to help us quickly get the finishing touches completed and on the market in record time. The communication with Brad and Mistie was excellent. He put as much time and effort into our listing as he did his higher priced ones. Brad gave us great advice and provided insights that only solid experience can give when we were negotiating with potential buyers. Overall a 10 out of 10 experience and will definitely use him again.

The great lesson I learned from him is that selling a house is easy, closing it is hard. My transaction had a number of challenges because my house was not a cookie cutter.
Brad spent a great deal of time with me, patiently helping me get the house ready, staging it, marketing it, and managing the process of showings in a way that did not disrupt my life unnecessarily.

Based on word of mouth recommendations and his having previously sold several homes in our area, we interviewed Brad Kappel when we decided to sell our family’s home for the last 7 plus decades. We were immediately impressed with the quality and detail of his preparation and his forthright approach to the discussion. His perceptive analysis demonstrated clear understanding of several unique factors that we believed needed to be taken into account in marketing the property.
Once we agreed to list the house with Brad, we came into contact with his obviously carefully-chosen team of Sotheby’s colleagues and others who deftly and swiftly executed his marketing vision. The staging, photography, videography and other elements were uniformly of the highest possible quality. It almost seemed like a shame their efforts got such a brief opportunity to shine as the home went on the market Monday and was under contract by Friday.

Having just sold our long-time Shady Side cottage through Brad Kappel, we can enthusiastically recommend him without reservation. We were impressed by Brad from the get-go when he arrived for our initial interview having already taken the initiative to do a drive-by of the property, enabling him to present us up front with an exhaustive compilation of well-chosen comparables. Brad's presentation of our property was expertly done, with first-class professional photos, a well-produced personally conducted video tour, and well-prepared descriptive material. His familiarity with the market, his sense of timing, and his negotiating and persuasive skills are first-rate, enabling him to elicit the best possible offers from prospective buyers. All this resulted in dozens of viewings, multiple competing offers, and a top-dollar contract, well above the posted listing price, only 4 days after the listing went live.

Throughout it all, Brad was unfailingly responsive to all our questions and concerns, and patiently guided us through the tedious process of getting the property ready for market, ably supported by his outstanding executive assistant Mistie. Although Brad's listings are very heavy on gorgeous multi-million-dollar properties, he devoted full expertise and effort to our little getaway cottage. If you're seeking to sell a property in Brad's area of specialization, Annapolis and Anne Arundel County waterfront, we cannot imagine anyone doing a better job for you.

Brad Kappel is a gentleman amongst men! A true professional at the top of his game. I wish I could give him 6 stars! I have recently sold my waterfront home with Brad to the first person to view it. I at that point was homeless with 2 months to settlement and we had to be out. He found a house for me to buy, and strategized on how we were going to beat out the competing bids and we closed in a month!

Then I had a small house to sell in Annapolis and I listed it with Brad and it was sold before we could even take pictures! It never even hit the market. He knows all of the other agents and has a great network. We got over asking price.

It has truly been an experience watching this man work. I highly recommend him!! He specializes in waterfront properties and did 140 million dollars in 2021! Brad Kappel gets it done!

We worked with Brad for a year to secure our perfect second home. It was a tough market and houses turned over very quickly. Brad knew what we were looking for, and, as a result, he did not waste our time showing us houses that were not for us. Brad knows the market so well- both as a result of Brad having grown up in the area and just doing the due diligence required for his clients. He gave us great information on each house we looked at- both the negatives and the positives. He is a pleasure to work with. He is responsive and if he does not know the answer to a question, he will find it out or find the person to answer it. He also has a great list of every type of person you will need to contact once you buy a house. We also want to give a shout out to Mistie, Brad's assistant.

It's said that a good real estate agent is similar in nature to a conductor of a symphony, coordinating the different players to make a successful transaction a reality. Sometimes a salesperson, a buyer’s advocate, an analyst, a business manager, a consultant, a negotiator, and a marketer, just to name a few of the roles. That is Brad Kappel.

I would strongly recommend meeting with Brad to discuss how he can help you in your next real estate transaction.

Brad Kappel just sold our home in under 4 days at more than the asking price. Brad has a deep grasp of the market, a rich network of interested buyers and a shrewd understanding of market forces and knew how to position our home for top dollar. He is at the top of his game and the leader in Maryland home sales for these and many other reasons. Thanks Brad for a job well done!

After following Brad's success in Annapolis for almost a year, I personally reached out to him about our desire to transition to Florida. We talked over the phone and then in person to get his thoughts on the market and that status of "waterfront" homes in Annapolis .
Of course, he came prepared with potential comps on our property, personal knowledge of each as he'd already visited them, and an outline on how we should proceed. Brad's knowledge, marketing prowess, strategic network through TTR Sotheby's, compelling videos and "coming soon" announcement resulted in multiple offers before the house went on the market. We were under contract within days and have since closed on the transaction without a hitch. "As smooth as it can get" should be his motto. A true professional, a wonderful person and organized to boot.. No wonder he is doing so well. Thank you again and congratulations on your continued success! G&S.

Brad was the listing agent, and I was the buyer, so I had never met him before the initial showing, yet Brad quickly became the friendliest, most helpful, knowledgeable, and informative agent I have ever met. He supplied a wide range of information not only about the house, including reclaimed floors, the comprehensive remodeling project, the geothermal system, and the pier , but was able to paint a wonderful picture of life on the water in Annapolis. He answered every one of my multitude of questions with detail and passion, and he had great ideas and insight into future plans that I was conjuring up for the house. And,of course, he made the process smooth and seamless for both his client, the sellers, and my wife and I. He communicated quickly, professionally and accurately. I have thanked him numerous times for helping to make our dream come true. Thanks again Brad! You are amazing!

Brad is an outstanding real estate professional and I highly recommend him. He differentiated himself with his creative approach to marketing my property. His market knowledge is impressive and his advice on how to price my property was right on target. His advice and guidance in helping me sell my property was perfect every step of the way. Besides being a top-notch real estate professional, Brad is a delightful person. The world of real estate is highly competitive, but Brad clearly stands out among the competition. I am very pleased that I selected Brad to help me with the sale of my Annapolis home.

I would definitely recommend Brad as an excellent real estate agent. He had our house under contract in 42 days. Brad absolutely excels at marketing properties. One of the things that separates Brad from other seller agents are the professional quality videos he uses to promote properties. Townsend Visuals did a great job with the drone, actually flying it underneath our footbridge and over the water for some amazing aerial video in addition to the birds’ eye views. Brad produced a custom video on our peninsula describing our waterfront property that emphasized the natural beauty of the of the landscape, local wildlife, and all the amenities of our property. This kind of marketing is just outstanding and was instrumental in generating a lot of foot traffic and ultimately multiple offers in just 42 days. The selling process was very smooth and easy. Brad is honest, knowledgeable, has his clients’ best interest at heart and makes himself available for any questions you may have. He is professional, organized, and goes above and beyond for his clients. I would recommend Brad to anyone looking to buy or sell! Thank you for the outstanding service.

Initially, I had no intention of working with Brad. I am traditionally very dubious about the value proposition of realtors. I was only casually looking at properties, and even if I decided to purchase, I was planning to use a family friend or my last agent.

However, Brad blew me away with his market knowledge and attention to detail. I peppered him with questions about the location, market value, financing options, and comparable properties. Sometimes I knew the answer and was just testing him. He passed. Sometimes I did not know the answer, and he demonstrated the domain and market expertise that left no doubt that I should be working with Brad.

I appreciate that Brad is very personable and responsive. But, if you are looking to purchase a million-dollar property, you want a realtor that will get you the best deal, understands negotiations, and can effectively shepherd you through to closing. Brad is the guy.

After working with seven other realtors over the years to buy and sell residential and rental properties, I can confidently say you won’t find someone more knowledgeable than Brad about the market. Brad had our house under contract within 24 hours of it being listed, leveraging his extensive network. From start to finish we felt like we were Brad’s priority and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Brad again.

We have worked with Brad for many years. We moved to the Annapolis area from Northern Virginia and did not know the nuances of the Annapolis waterfront market. Brad was instrumental is helping us purchase a waterfront home. He assisted with connecting us with local contractors and even helped us to find the perfect school for our children. When it came time to sell our home, we called Brad because we new he would help us to achieve top dollar. He listed and sold our home in only 4 days and we locked in a deal that was well over list price. His marketing of our home was top notch and the video was over the top. If you want top-tier representation and unprecedented local insight, call Brad!

Brad is an extremely experienced agent with extensive knowledge on luxury homes and waterfront properties. After our first meeting I knew he was the right person for us to work with. Brad presented us with an offer just couple months after our property was put on the market. He efficiently managed the listing, sale, contract and kept us fully informed throughout the stages of the entire process. We are very pleased with the outcome.
I have already recommended Brad to several of our friends and will continue to do so.

We had been dealing with a different realtor, trying to get information on a vacant home that was on the market for nearly two years. Getting answers to our many questions was painfully slow and frustrating. As soon as Brad Kappel became the new realtor, within a week, we had our answers and within 2 weeks Brad negotiated a wonderful deal for us. Well done Brad! Thank you.

As a lifelong Annapolitan, Brad has the resources to spot great real estate opportunities early. He also has considerable experience with home renovation and repair, and will eagerly pass on ideas, solutions, and names of reliable contractors.

He was a tremendous help to us when we moved here three years ago - professional, trustworthy, reliable and always accessible. We are glad to have him as a friend and highly recommend him for all things real estate.

Brad is an agent who is invested in his clients. He is on top of the real estate market, therefore, providing accurate data for moving your real estate. He understands the emotional investment of the homeowner by helping the seller understand how to price their property (by taking the emotion out of it) for a true sale. He knows what will sell in the market, how to get your property sold and how to get the deal done.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Brad for a long time. His real estate knowledge, and specifically waterfront, sets him apart from his peers. My wife and I were looking for new home for a long time. Brad was very patient, never pressured us and always kept our interests in mind. Brad is a good guy and a good listener and will take the time to learn exactly what you are looking for. Then he will use his experience and knowledge of the housing market to put you in great position to find the right home. It’s for these reasons and more that I recommend Brad if you are in need of a high quality & professional real estate agent.

Brad is an outstanding resource if you are considering a home in the Annapolis area. Born and bred here, he knows the neighborhoods and schools, and the waterfront/boating lifestyle intimately. His experience with renovation/construction is also a huge value if you are considering doing work before you move in. Brad is friendly, ethical, and professional, and has the contacts and experience you need to make the right move.
