Jim Bim

We have had the pleasure of working with Jim and Winning Edge Real Estate not once, but twice over the past 20 years. He helped us sell and purchase our home 20 years ago, and when it was time to do it again recently, there was no question that we wanted Jim to be our agent. Jim is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated. He was always available whenever we needed him and guided us through every aspect of the process with patience, experience, and genuine care. His strategy for selling our home was extremely effective, and thanks to his expertise, we were able to sell our house in a remarkably short period of time. What impressed us most, however, was that Jim's commitment did not end when the house was sold. He personally spent his valuable time helping us sort through and get rid of unwanted items, going far beyond what anyone could reasonably expect from a real estate agent. That kindness and generosity truly meant a lot to us. Jim is not only an outstanding real estate professional, but also a wonderful person who genuinely cares about his clients. We are extremely grateful for everything he did for us and would wholeheartedly recommend Jim and his Winning Edge agency to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. We feel very fortunate to have had Jim by our side once again!

Great working with Jim and his team. My property was on the market for months when I met Jim. He provided market insight, advised on how to prepare my property through simple repairs, and the secured several offers before closing the deal. I believe his network and insight helped me to navigate this challenging market.

Jim, Grant, and Weston were great to work with. They partnered with us throughout the process from the beginning of preparing the home, marketing it, and closing the sale at the end. Great communication and follow up all the way through.

We recently worked with Weston and the Winning Edge team for the sale of our property on Diamond Cove, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Weston did an excellent job throughout the entire process. His hard work, dedication, and professionalism made the sale a reality, and we truly appreciate his efforts. We highly recommend Weston and the Winning Edge team to anyone looking for a seamless real estate experience.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience working with Jim. Before connecting with him, I had my home listed with an internet-based realty that promised a lot and delivered very little. At the time, I had also lost my job, so selling my home wasn’t just important, it was necessary. When Jim first reached out, I was honestly pretty skeptical. I asked him directly what made him so confident in such a tough market, and he told me it came down to his experience and his commitment to his clients. He followed through on that in every way. Jim sold my home in a difficult market and handled so many of the details that usually make the process stressful. The final price wasn’t exactly what I had hoped for, but the way he guided me through everything and made it as smooth as possible meant a lot. Looking back, I’m really grateful he made that call. I would absolutely recommend Jim, especially if you’re someone who tends to be skeptical like me. Do your homework, but I’m very glad I chose to work with him.

Jim is the Realator for you! Our house was on the market for almost 8 months, 2 realtors later we heard about Jim online and he didn’t disappoint! You truly get the red carpet experience and he will do everything he can to put the sellers first in getting your home sold and setting everything up for you. Thank you so much Jim, you made a stressful time look easy.

Working with Grant Bim and his family team was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Grant’s communication with us was excellent — clear, consistent, and always timely. He welcomed our input, answered every question, and made sure we understood each step of the process. His “coming soon” strategy was extremely effective and gave us a real sense of how much traffic and interest our home would attract before officially going live. Grant was actually the second realtor we worked with, and the difference was noticeable immediately. We began working with him around January 30, 2026, and he got started right away by sharing a thoughtful, well-organized plan for selling our home. What impressed us most was the speed and efficiency of the entire process. Settlement took place just 46 days after we began working with Grant — a testament to his expertise, strategy, and dedication. If you’re looking for a realtor who communicates well, values your input, and delivers results, we highly recommend Grant Bim and his team.

Winning Edge Real Estate is the only choice!! We are a young couple who wanted to start the next chapter and become homeowners. After going to a couple open houses with multiple real estate agents that seemed pushy and unwelcoming for our financial and uneducated housing situation. My aunt recommended Jim Bim and his team. We could not have been more lucky to get in contact. From the very beginning Jim made time available on a short time frame to meet with us at a desired property. Jim talked, walked, and answered ALL of our questions no matter how obscure or vague they were. We felt listened to and valued. We appreciate how we were always able to reach him, he walked/ talked us through every form and gave us amazing advice on the property. Jim was also able to point us in the direction of an amazing lender that helped us on the financial side. Even after the closing process he has reached out and has proven that he is always a recourse to us. We cannot recommend Jim Bim enough!!!!

I've worked with Jim for over 10 years and he has sold 4 houses of mine. All of them have gone very smoothly and his whole team has always been a joy to work with. Very easy to get ahold of and always willing to put in a little extra effort to get the job done.

Without a doubt the most knowledgeable, professional, amiable, helpful real estate agent I have ever had (and I've had a number). Sold my house quickly and at a very sold price (especially with the market stallng at the time of sale), made the entire process seemless, and even followed-up post closing (never had anyone do that before). Came in with a professional plan based on market research as to the best way to market our home and executed. As it was a rental property, he even helped us minimize the payment of state capital gains (who does this!?#). Just wish I had more properties to sell in Maryland! If you don't hire Jim, you're makng a BIG mistate!

Working with the Jim Bim Real Estate team, especially Weston Bim, was truly one of the best decisions I've ever made. As a family-owned business, they care deeply for their clients, and it shows. Weston was nothing short of incredible—he went above and beyond to address all my needs. From facilitating my move to Florida and assisting with downsizing to helping me consign some of my larger items, he provided unwavering support through what was a challenging time. Every emotional step of the journey was met with compassion and attentiveness from this remarkable team, making me feel truly valued. Most impressively, they secured top dollar for my home in record time! I am immensely grateful for all their efforts and the heartfelt care they provided. Thank you for everything—this experience has left an indelible mark on my life.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Winning Ridge Real Estate and the incredible experience they provided for me and my family. From the very beginning, this family-owned and operated agency made us feel like we were their only clients—giving our home their full attention and care every step of the way. They went above and beyond in every aspect of the selling process. Their team conducted thorough research to price our home competitively and thoughtfully. They helped us identify and make home improvements that truly enhanced the value and appeal of our property. When it came to staging, their expertise made our home look inviting and showcased its best features, which I believe played a huge role in attracting buyers quickly. Negotiation was another area where Winning Ridge Real Estate excelled. They represented our interests with professionalism and skill, ensuring we got the best possible outcome without added stress. Even after the sale, they supported us during our move, demonstrating a genuine commitment to making the entire process smooth and manageable. Overall, their personalized service, attention to detail, and unwavering dedication turned what can often be a stressful experience into a positive and rewarding journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Winning Ridge Real Estate to anyone looking to sell their home—they truly treat you like family and make your goals their top priority. Thank you, Winning Ridge, for everything you did for us! Roni

Jim and his staff were extremely helpful and made the process of selling my home as painless as possible. I always felt he had my best interests in mind, and it was a pleasure to work with him. I highly recommend him when considering selling your home.

Jim and the Winning Edge team go above and beyond. They’re honest, experienced, and truly know the market inside and out. Their customer service is top-tier, and they treat you like family every step of the way. You can count on them 100%—they’ll guide you through the process with confidence and care.

Weston was recommend to us by my husband's coworker and we couldn't be more greatful. Weston was so responsive and immediately helped us buy a house while overseas. It will be amazing to move back to the states directly into our new house. Weston listened to what our priorities were found us a house in our budget that we at excited to move into. He worked well with our lender and title agent to make the whole process easy and low stress. I cannot recommend him enough.

Jim and the Winning Edge Team helped us sell our home quickly and for over asking price at the start of an uncertain market. He provided great advice at the start of the process, ensured we understood what was happening and followed through on what he said he'd do. Our questions were answered quickly and thoroughly. We had multiple offers within days and Jim expertly negotiated with the other agents to ensure we were presented with great / qualified offers. I'd highly recommend Jim and his team.

Working with Weston was such a pleasure. As out of town owners, Weston made selling our Baltimore home so convenient. He truly went the extra mile to secure Plumber, HVAC, Painter/Repairman, and cleaner to help us put this house in it's best shape to sell. He communicated constantly with updates, handled our Maryland tax exemption request, and stepped us through all the requirements of closing. I highly recommend this firm for it's tremendous customer service. Thank you, Thank you!

Grant did an awesome job helping to get through every step of the process for selling the home in a difficult situation. From giving advice for preparing the house to connecting me with awesome contractors to get various jobs done, Grant had all the info, was quick, and helped close on selling the house within a couple months. This family team will have my own family's business and recommendation for years to come!

Jim and team are fantastic. His knowledge of the market trends and what you need to do to sell your home is unparalleled. He made sure we did what was right for us and ensured the property looked immaculate. His attention to detail is amazing and definitely paid off as we prepared to put our home on the market from across the country. Jim has a network of professionals who supported us throughout the process. Their response times and quality of work were second to none. Jim was supported us as we rented our property for four years prior to selling. He helped us find quality renters which allowed our family to stay together as we executed a military change of station. Jim also responded to all of our calls, questions, and emails in a timely manner. He made several trips to the property to ensure everything was perfect. Bottom line is Jim is a true professional and has my highest recommendation if you are looking to buy, sell, or rent.

Exceptional Service and Expertise: Highly Recommend! We had a fantastic experience with Grant Bim. From the start, Grant showed a strong knowledge of the real estate market and a real dedication to helping us find the perfect place. He was professional and paid great attention to detail in every interaction. What really impressed us was Grant's commitment and proactive attitude. He was always there to address our concerns and went out of their way to get us the best deal. If you're looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and dedicated real estate agent, we highly recommend Grant Bim. Thank you, Grant, for all your hard work and support! May and George

As a first-time homebuyer, Grant was there with every step. Grant went above and beyond to make sure the buying process was a great experience. He was always available to talk on the phone and would accommodate schedules with ease. I was referred to Grant by a friend and will continue to work with him and his team in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Weston Bim of Winning Edge Real Estate to purchase my new home. This was my third real estate transaction working with Winning Edge Real Estate but my first time as a solo buyer working directly with Weston. Real estate purchase, particularly in this demanding market,  is very stressful but Weston’s knowledge, confidence, and experience came through to make the process seemingly worry-free for me. Weston is easy-going yet professional, and very responsive to all my questions via phone, text, or email. Throughout the process, I felt like my real estate transaction was his priority as much as mine.  Weston worked late hours to get my offer submitted. Weston was indispensable in scheduling and attending all the home inspections, and helping me secure a loan officer as well as arranging for a title processing company. Ultimately, Weston helped me close an amazing deal where I paid less than the asking price and had the seller contribute to my closing costs. That is no easy feat in this hot real estate market and for that, I am very grateful!

Weston and Jim and their team did a fantastic job selling our home. They invested a lot of time and effort to quickly move the house from "sale" to "sold". Before I brought any issue up to address, they had already been working on it. They gave us the reassurance and peace of mind we really needed throughout the process. They worked very efficiently and were very considerate and courteous to meet out needs. I highly recommend them to both sellers and buyers. I wish them the best of luck in their growing and successful business.

Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Made the entire sale of my condo a breeze! Very helpful and always available. Highly recommend for your real estate needs.

Weston was very responsive throughout our search and quickly responded to all our questions. We negotiated a fair price forournew homethat we LOVE! We were so satisfied in finding a home with Weston that we also elected to use him to sell our home. He helped us find contractors to paint and refurbish floors and compromised with us on sale price. We were able to sell our home within a few days on marketbefore an open house above asking at an overall net/profit consistent with what we hoped to earn. He then followed up after our purchase and sale to ensure everything went smoothly afterward.

I was beginning the search of purchasing my first home and completely new to the entire process. I reached out to Grant Bim from Winning Edge Real Estate and him and his team were amazing from the start and throughout the duration of the entire settlement process.  Grant was available at all hours of the day to answer any questions, offer feedback, or just talk about any next steps or possibilities. His communication was outstanding, and his suggestions were spot on as he handled  business as if it were he himself going in on the deal with his own money. That is truly how much he cares about you and your success and decisions.  He knows the area extremely well and is very familiar with properties of all shapes and sizes and things to consider and look out for. The house purchasing experience is quite daunting especially for a first time home buyer, and Grant made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. Any doubt, confusions, or questions I had he was quick to answer, support, and offer assistance. He was on top of everything and ahead of the game at every turn. At any point during the deal, he was 100% looking out for me and what was best for me and for my future success, saving money for me with every opportunity he could. I would recommend Grant and his team at Winnning Edge to anyone in their search in buying into real estate and I will definitely be going back to him with any future real estate needs.

My experience was with Grant of the JimBim team, though we worked with several members of the JimBim Winning Edge team in the selling of our old house and the purchase of our new house. Throughout the process, Grant and the team were exceptional in terms of customer service, professionalism, and overall real estate acumen. Grant helped us focus on what was important in our house search, but also was patient as we waded through the house listings throughout Central Maryland. I found his realism in the real estate market to be quite helpful and he was able to find a buyer for us, and find the new house we are really enjoying now. Grant was also helpful in finding a creative financing solution with a local banker that was instrumental in making the sell/buy process effective. All-in-all, Grant and the JimBim Winning Edge team were exceptional. If we should choose to sell/buy real estate again, we will sign back up with them without hesitation.

Words cannot express how grateful we are to Jim for making the process of selling our parent's home from halfway across the country totally, and completely painless. Jim and his team handled every detail from start to finish and sold the home quickly for more than we expected. Far and away the best at what he does. We truly cannot recommend him highly enough.

Jim Bim was so helpful, honest and knowledgeable. I knew nothing about how to sell a house. It was like God sent me a real estate angel! Jim Bim made clearing out my deceased mom's house so easy and he had the house sold in a flash! It was actually a pleasant experience, I would recommend Jim Bim, to everyone!!! You can count on him to do the best job with ease, to be professionally supportive and do it all with a smile!

Grant was invaluable in helping me prepare and sell my sister's house as part of her estate settlement. He arranged for contractors to clean up the property , sell furniture and other items, and promptly responded to my questions and concerns from start to final sale. I wholeheartedly recommend Winning Edge Realty!

Grant and Jim really made us feel comfortable. They were very informative, caring with great communication. After no success a year ago to sell our house, (another realtor) Jim and Grant reached out to us on a regular basis. Once we made the decision to try again, we had them come and look at our property and we decided to give them a try. They made the process as seamless as they could. Had a list of several “preferred vendors and contractors”, including an amazing moving and storage company. They were honest with us, very professional and once we did a few things to help in the sale of the house, it was sold 2 - 3 days after going on the market. We HIGHLY recommend Winning Edge.

Winning Edge Real Estate were integral to the success of the sell of our house. They worked diligently to provide the highest quality of service. Open communication and respectful and kind treatments, makes them very special. We had a smooth experience selling and at settlement. Weston Bim is the best real state agent we've had the pleasure to work with.

Weston Bim, from Winning Edge Realty, was impressive from the get-go. We weren't even looking to sell our home when he first called my husband but circumstances changed and we met with him several months later. He was always sharply dress and very professional. And always prompt. We barely had to do anything as far as selling the house was concerned. Weston offered a name of a moving company and that experience was perfect - plus we got a 10% off discount. When the time came, Weston found someone to thoroughly clean our empty home. All in all, we would highly recommend Weston Bim on his professionalism, knowledge, and performance.

Grant and his company recently helped us to find a perfect tenant for our property, they did an outstanding job, very professional with lots of knowledge, lots of patience, we would like to recommend to our friends. We are very appreciative for their good job.

Helps my brother and I purchase our very first time. Was very professional, kind, and patient with us. We cannot thank you enough for all your hard work, you made this entire process so much easier than we ever expected it to be.

My family recently worked with Weston Bim to find our first home and it was a wonderful experience. Weston was dedicated to finding us the right home that met all our needs. He was very attentive to what we were looking for from the first conversation we had with him. Weston worked very hard throughout the process. He also had alot of knowledge in the Howard and Carroll County locations we visited. He sent us numerous listings and made time to show us houses (even during holidays). He always made himself available. Jim Bim also took time from his schedule to show us some listings which we also appreciated. We ultimately found our home and was very pleased with the process from start to finish. The road to home ownership has many twists and turns and can be stressful but with the right agent and team it makes the process so much easier to navigate. If you are looking to buy or sell a home please consider Winning Edge Reality. They will work hard for you and ensure you have positive results. Jacqueline and Harrison

Grant was great in assisting me in selling my townhouse in Glen Burnie Maryland. we went above and beyond every step of the way from prepping the house for pictures to the closing day. I highly recommend him and the Bim team.

My wife and I worked with Grant on the sale of our home in Davidsonville. We are completely happy with their services. Grant, Jim and the entire team are extremely knowledgeable and absolute professionals. They were honest and upfront about everything from day one. With their help we were able to secure an offer by the end of the first weekend. If you want a realtor to tell you what you need to hear, rather than just tell you what you want to hear; Hire Jim and Grant. 100% True Sales Professionals!

We worked with Jim’s son, Grant, and could not have been happier. In 2021, we got a cold call from Grant saying they had sold houses in the area and asked if we were looking to sell. We weren’t at the time, but luckily he called a few months later within days of us deciding to move. It was serendipity. Having never sold a house before, there was a lot of uncharted territory. Grant was not only patient, he was so helpful and always found an answer to any of our questions. We were so stressed having to move out of state quickly and buy a house, etc. and Grant made the process so, so smooth and seamless. It was the cherry on the top that he, and the rest of the team, were so kind and thought. We really felt like part of the family. Work with the Bim’s, you will not be sorry. We are so thankful for the experience working with them and, if given the choice, would do it all over again.

The Winning Edge Team guided me through my sales process from conception to final close. Grant Bim advised every step of the way. Grant provided analytical data to support his points backed by facts and not marketing messages. After being guided by Grant, the rest of the Winning Edge team, picked up the sales process and guided me in bringing my property to market. Advised by a pricing strategy, I selected the one most conforming to me. In addition, other components of the company also played a vital role from staging, marketing to closing, the Winning Edge kept me on track to successfully sale my home not once but twice within two weeks after the first buyer experienced a family death. On both occasions, my property sold within one day! Yes, the Winning Edge family based team has a proven track record of successful sales and complete customer service from conception to post sales. I highly recommend their service, especially in tough real estate markets. Neil Carter

Jim and his sons, Grant and Weston did a fantastic job of getting my properties sold quickly and at a good price. They were very professional from the first meeting to evaluating the value of my properties to strategizing the best way to sell them quickly. The team kept me up to date at all points of the settlement from offer to closing. I highly recommend these guys if you want your property SOLD.

With this realtor, I got a full team of people to work with. They stayed in contact with with us through every aspect of the sale, from getting the house ready to sell through settlement. And they did not shirk from doing things that needed doing. It was a real pleasure working with all of them.

Working with Grant Bim and Winning Edge realty was an incredible experience. I have purchased several homes before meeting Grant and I can say that their service is on a level all its own. Their responsiveness is incredible at all aspects of the sales process. They beat even their own estimates of what they thought our home could sell for. They managed to get multiple offers on our home in just two days! If you are a military member in the DC, MD, VA area, I couldn't recommend a better company to do business with. Not only did they help sell my home but they helped me find a great realtor in another state and find movers to help make the move as seamless as possible. I know my job will eventually bring me back to Maryland. Jim Bim and his team will be the only call I will make when I need to buy a home again.

In April 2021, I had given up on selling my property after being on the market for 8 years. One morning after taking property off the market, I received a call Frederick, MD & the number was unknown to me. I had received several previous calls from the same number but decided after the third call to answer. I'm glad I did for it led to the sell my property & purchasing a house. Weston was very polite & professional about getting my property sold. My first 2 lots sold in August 2021 and the third lot in November 2021. Between August and October I was also house hunting. Weston had the patience of Job. I don't recall how many homes I toured but finally in October I found the house. Weston continues to check with me occasionally to insure that all is going well. He takes a lot of pride in serving his clients.

Short version: Weston (Jim's son) is an absolute gem and if you're looking to buy or sell, he is who you should call. Long version: About a year ago, I felt like a hermit crab living in a shell that was much too small. I had a 2 year old and was very pregnant. We needed a new house, even though I had grown up in this one. I was a ball of hormones and nerves when I found Weston. He helped me and my family every step of the way. He walked house after house with us and was patient with me as I struggled with such a huge decision. Now, I couldn't be happier. My husband sees my smile and frequently says, "Don't say 'I love this house.'" I can't help it! I LOVE this house. I'm going to raise my children and make memories here and I couldn't have done it without Weston. He went above and beyond, answering my questions and doing research into it if he couldn't. He helped me sell the old house too, quick and painless. I would recommend him to anyone! Sure, everyone has that friend or cousin who's a real estate agent, but Weston is a second generation with his family's experience supporting his amazing work ethic and personality. Your cousin never needs to know you called Weston.

Working with Grant was a pleasure! He was so communicative and helpful throughout the entire process. We really struggled for a bit to find a place we loved on our own and as soon as Grant and his company came into the picture, we found the perfect house! We couldn’t be happier and we definitely couldn’t have done it without his help.

Just wanted to give a big thanks to Grant and the rest of the Bim team! I was a first-time homebuyer and they really helped me find my ideal home. They had a lot of knowledge and were able to advise me every step of the process and beyond! With their help, buying my first home wasn't actually as scary as I thought it would be. I really recommend working with this team if you are also new to the house-hunting process!

I have nothing but praise for Jim and the rest of the Winning Edge team. He is definitely a very seasoned agent as he knew exactly what needed to be done to get the best price for our house. Not only did he help us sell our home for above the asking price, he helped us purchase our dream home for less than it was appraised for! Talk about results! He will go above and beyond to make sure you are completely satisfied. Any hiccup that might arise, come hell or high water, he will nip it in the bud! So whether you are looking to sell or buying a home, he's the one you call. After all, among real estate agents, Jim is the GOAT! Hands down! ??

My wife and I would like to thank Weston, Jim, and the rest of the Winning Edge Realty team for helping us with the purchase of our first home. This already stressful process was complicated by the pandemic, the height of the housing market, and a move across state lines. We were referred to Weston by another realtor, and we were very happy with how everything turned out. Through numerous weekend trips, submitted offers, and lots and lots of phone calls, Weston helped us through the process from start to finish. His upbeat attitude and optimism throughout the process really took the edge off a difficult process. His recommendations for the associated folks (Loans, Inspectors, Title Agencies) saved us a lot of stress as well. Weston and the rest of the Winning Edge team were responsive, attentive, and made us feel like their only client at the time. This was extremely soothing for us first-time homebuyers, as we had lots of questions. The WT team was always able to answer. Even after we closed, Weston stayed in contact as we settled in, offering advice following Ida, and just checking in periodically to make sure everything was as it should be. We’d very much recommend Weston, and Winning Edge to anyone looking to buy a new home.

Thank YOU, Grant and the Bim Team! I'm so glad I picked up my parents' phone that spring day in 2020 when Grant called our Clarksville home. From that first conversation Grant was one of the most upbeat, affable, and resourceful professionals I have ever dealt with. On that day we talked for at least 45 minutes and most of it was talking about our family histories, sports, colleges, common bonds, life... and death. I felt like I was talking to a member of my family. That wasn't the only time we would talk about how life was going and Grant was always kind and able to relate and would talk about the best way to approach something, etc. He was very knowledgeable and ready to get an answer if he didn't know something off the top of his head. In this situation of representing my parents, maybe even more than on my own behalf, I felt I needed to understand everything and look at things from all angles – Grant and the Bim Team were not daunted by all of my questions and those of my siblings. So thank you to Grant and the Bims for being such a huge part of helping with this transition which is truly the end of an era for our family. They were instrumental in finding a buyer who wants to carry on the "good karma" of our family home and love of the land that my parents' had. That was also a tremendous gift! Just as theirs is a family business they understood they were dealing with people and families and treated us in kind. From the bottom of our hearts - from our family to yours - thank you, Grant, the Bim Team and the Winning Edge! Warmest wishes, Mary and siblings
