Buying a home with Ingrid made me realize the difference between working with a realtor versus a…read morereal pro. Her dilligence and attention saved us thousands and got us into exactly the home we hoped to get within the time frame we wanted and at a great price. She expertly guided us through the entire process and eliminated all the stress of the home buying experience. I refer all my friends and family to her because I know she will take excellent care of them and protect their interests from beginning to end and is always willing to go to bat for every detail that is important to her clients. I am so grateful for her dedication, hard work and experience, it truly lead us home! |

Ingrid helped my husband and I buy and sell in the Manassas area in the summer of 2015. She is…read morefantastic. When we decided to list our house for sale, Ingrid came out, looked at our house, and gave us a list of things to fix. She gave us an idea of what she would list our house for if we fixed everything vs. leaving it as is. Once we got the repairs done, she had a photographer take pictures of our home and had some very professional-looking brochures made up. She also suggested that we list the house as "coming soon" while we were finishing everything up. Within ONE DAY, we had a contract on our house for full asking price. Since our house sold fast, we had to quickly find somewhere to move. Ingrid arranged her schedule so we could go look at houses at the most convenient time for my husband and I. Unlike when we bought our first house, Ingrid didn't show us a bunch of houses outside our budget; she actually told us not to get discouraged because she could find us the house we wanted in our price range. We only had to go out looking once to find the house we wanted. I can't count how many times Ingrid told us, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Ingrid is a very assertive negotiator and made sure everything was done just right and for the right price. She also has a ton of experience and a huge network of people she works with, so no matter what problem popped up, she always had someone to refer us to. We called her many times panicking about one issue or another, but she took care of everything, and we were able to close on both houses the same day without a hitch. Ingrid's knowledge, dedication and professionalism are invaluable and I highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Sold for Above List Price with No Contingencies -- in a Buyer's Market -- Thanks to Sandra & Alex!…read moreWe couldn't be happier with the results Sandra Crews and Alex Crews delivered on the sale of our home in Greenbriar. We sold above list price, with no contingencies, at a time when 3 nearly identical homes were also on the market -- and ours sold for more than all of them. In fact, of all comparable homes sold within 90 days, ours achieved the highest price per square foot. And this was with mostly original windows, yellow vinyl siding, an ancient furnace, and an aging roof! From the beginning, Sandra and Alex provided strategic advice that was truly invaluable. They helped us prioritize which improvements would give us the best return and referred us to excellent professionals -- a painting company, hardwood floor refinishers, and carpet installers. Alex's expertise with technology and marketing brought maximum exposure -- the photo quality, order, and online presentation were fantastic and drove lots of buyer interest. They also patiently worked with us when our timeline shifted by a week. What really stood out was how professional, detail-oriented, and available they were throughout the process. We never felt any pressure -- just helpful recommendations and guidance. Sandra is an outstanding negotiator. She proactively reached out to generate multiple offers, and expertly leveraged them to help us select the best one with the highest likelihood of closing quickly and smoothly. We interviewed 3 excellent local agents, but Sandra and Alex clearly stood out. Their preparation was incredibly detailed (almost too thorough -- they love what they do!). Having two highly skilled professionals on our side gave us great peace of mind. Their commission was very fair, and the level of service we received was exceptional. If you want a team that works tirelessly, brings expert strategy, and delivers fantastic results -- Sandra and Alex are it!

I will be forever thankful for that introduction. She was the best support I could have ever gotten. Lauren is not only a spiced-up real estate agent, always keeping an eye for her client's interests, but she is also a lawyer, something invaluable when it comes to figure out details about selling or buying property. As if it were not enough, Lauren has a huge contact list of professionals whom she has worked with, first hand, in her real estate career, involved in the selling/buying process, such as electricians, handymen and also the --very relevant-- best home inspectors. I was nervous about my purchase, as I was looking right when the pandemic news broke. Lauren was very patient and informed me about all the possibilities surrounding real estate valuation, risk, comparative market analysis, etc. I would recommend Lauren to my best friend.

Ten years ago, GAIL JACKSON was the agent that listed our home for sale, and we purchased it with…read moreanother Weichert Agent from Fairfax that showed us the house. We hired Gail to list our home for sale this past November. We looked at comps and it seemed that several homes like ours (15-25 years old, 4 BR, 2.5 bath, ~2500 SF, 1/4 to 1/3-acre, 2-car attached garage, finished basement, updated kitchen, etc.) were all clustered around one price point. We discussed pricing at that price point and also pricing to sell quickly. We decided to come in $5K below that price point and to stick with the price. The strategy is to pick a price and stay with it, don't lower later. It worked. We had seven showings in seven days and a very good contract which resulted in a sale (December 2010). Gail said this is a smart strategy because people looking for your type house will see your house FIRST, then look at the others and ask why they should pay more, so they don't and you often get the offer when you price aggressively. Also, if you price along with the others, if your house is on the market 3-4 months and you don't get an offer, you end up reducing to where you would have priced in the first place, and then buyers wonder if something is wrong because it's been on the market quite a while and you reduced price. GAIL JACKSON has many listings ALL THE TIME and average listing time is ~30 days. So if you want someone who knows her business and will handle your transaction professionally at each step of the way, ask for GAIL JACKSON, Weichert Realtors.

To say that Shannon is an amazing realtor is an understatement. When we first reached out to…read moreShannon we were looking to buy in the Northern Virginia/DC area, and even though we were still 6+ months away from buying our next home she still provided us with daily updates and also routinely checked in with us to answer any questions and provide vital recommendations based on what we were looking for in our next home. Once we moved in the area and started looking at homes, she always made sure that we were happy with what we wanted and never tried to push us or sugarcoat something in order to push us in any way in order to make the sale. She also brought up key items that we didn't think about to help us narrow down properties that meet all of our needs as a family (location, work commute, school, lifestyle, community). Once we found the home that we wanted, herself and her team were able to work around the clock and also from around the globe to make sure we were able to have the winning bid. Then once we went in to escrow on the property she negotiated diligently and fought for very key credits which we weren't really expecting, which was all based on her vast knowledge of real estate market ensuring we were able to get the best possible outcome when closing on the home. Even after we closed on the home she continues to reach out and stay in contact with us to make sure everything is ok and also provide points of contact if we need recommendation on items we are looking to have done on the home. Shannon has made the entire homebuying process incredible as she is not only a great realtor but also a good friend. We couldn't be happier and if you are looking for a realtor to work with, look no further she is the one! Thank you Shannon! We are forever grateful!
