Giquel + Adeline Brodtke

About

Adeline Started At The University Of Maryland As A Visiting Senior Faculty Specialist In The Department Of Astronomy In 2019. She Heard About The Homeownership Program Shortly After Being Hired, “The Department Gave Me A Brochure About The Homeownership Program And College Park, And One Of My Colleagues Recommended Real Estate Agent Dixie Meadows,” Explained Adeline.

She And Her Husband John Were Looking For Homes For About A Year – They Looked At A Lot Of Homes. “First, We Were Looking In Takoma And Silver Spring, And Also University Park, But Then We Remembered This Program. So, We Focused On College Park.”

Adeline Explained How Ms. Meadows Had Taken Her To The House She’d Eventually Buy, “But We Weren’t Ready Yet.” They Looked At Many Other Homes In The Neighborhood, But Eventually Came Back To This House. “The House Was A Former Rental Property Meaning It Qualified For The City’s New Neighbor Grant Too. We Were Able To Use Both Programs Together, Which Was A Benefit.’
