Christine Shepard has been an amazing friend, advisor, and miracle worker. A great personality with a caring heart. Having spent 3+ years selling our home in Chattanooga, we moved to Richmond so that we could be close to our 2 children who now had their own family. Four grand kids wanted nothing more in life than to have their Grandparents around, yet the 9+ hour drive from Chattanooga was getting a bit overwhelming. Unfortunately, we simply couldn't find a house in our price range that we liked. After working, endlessly, with another realtor (homes were sold by the time we were able to look at them), we met with Christine for lunch one day and explained what we wanted in the Richmond area. That was a Friday afternoon and we left feeling hopeful. Saturday afternoon Christine called with a home that was having an open house Sat & Sun and thought we should go look at it. We scheduled a visit on Sunday at noon. The house looked like it had what we were looking for and by 1:00, we had seen enough. We were very interested. Christine's team went to work and by 5:00, after virtual meetings with everyone, we decided to go after the home with our best offer. By 7:30, Christine called us with a "Welcome to Richmond" message, telling us there had been over 12 offers and ours was the winning package. Truly a Dream Come True. Christine and her team then helped arrange everything that was necessary for the closing, from inspections, closing date, and all the necessary topics to make sure we were protected, insured, and taken care of to make the closing day one of shear delight. Totally breath taking. I highly recommend Christine to anyone that is looking in the real estate marketplace. If she doesn't personally know an answer to your question, she has surrounded herself with one of the finest realty teams around, who will, in fact, have the answer. Thank you, Christine, for all of your help and assistance. We absolutely LOVE our new home. read more

I had to start looking for my own space in February of 2020. Never having owned a house I was clueless on the process of becoming a homeowner. I started out with Alison and right away we were looking at different places that fell into the category of my financial situation. We looked at some duds but we also had the opportunity to talk and for Alison to learn more about me and to determine my needs. She was relentless in sending me information on new listings and advising what she thought the potential was for each place. If I was interested she was quick on getting an appointment set up for a tour. If I found something on my own she was quick to determine the status so we could pursue or move on. When we found THE place for me she helped me understand the process on paperwork and financing. Very much appreciated because...well first time homeowner here...I knew minimal. I was advised by the previous owner that Alison put in my offer so fast it beat out the other potential buyers that looked at the house. This was big because at the time every house I looked at and had some interest in was under contract by later in the day I looked at it. He said she was organized and on her game. I like that about her. My closing was in March of 2020. Covid had started and everything was crazy but she kept me informed all along. Coming up on 1 year in my first new house and I have to say if it wasn't for Alison this might not be. Thanks Alison. Let Alison help you too! read more

I can honestly say my fiancé and I probably wouldn't be moving into our dream home if it wasn't for our realtor Jody Sidle! We were first time buyers in a very intimidating housing market. Jody was very patient and always available, willing to answer our questions and tour a house but never trying to push us into a purchase. We were very particular about the type of house we were interested in and Jody picked up on it instantly. After months of searching, we found a home we fell in love with. We went through a competitive bidding process and Jody was just perfect, helping us time when to submit the offer and how to compete against the dreaded "all cash offers". If that wasn't enough, on the day we went under contract she arranged a last-minute inspection within minutes which entirely saved the deal for us!! Looking back over the list of "must haves" and "want to haves" that we sent Jody at the start of our search, we found a home that checked every box within our budget and we couldn't have done it without Jody's help! read more

Let me tell you Monica and her team are the best! Monica is a go getter. We weren't happy with the services provided to us by another realtor so we asked around and someone recommended Monica. The best decision we made was to go with her. We got in touch with her that morning asking to look at a house and by the afternoon she was showing it to us. She worked for hours on our contract to make sure everything was good with our purchase. Helped us with negotiating, and got us the house! She is very knowledgeable of the business. Awesome personality, very down to earth. We recommended her to a friend that is trying to sell her house and she jumped in and didn't hesitate to help. She checked in on us after we closed to make sure everything was going good. If you want a knowledgeable, down to earth, will go above and beyond realtor..Choose Monica!! She is the best around!! read more

Buying a house from across the country is stressful, but Jenny and her team were incredibly responsive right off the bat! After a detailed phone call with Jenny to understand our needs in a house, her associate Terra stepped in and worked with us. Terra was amazing throughout the entire process - she showed us listings through FaceTime, and took videos when we weren't available for a live feed. She helped us figure out exactly what we were looking for, what areas were in our price range, and gave us info only a local would know. After narrowing it down to two listings, she helped us create a fair and competitive offer that got us our dream home! The process couldn't have been easier, and Terra was a delight to work with. We would highly recommend her, and the entire Jenny Maraghy team to anyone looking to buy or sell. read more

Cathy was recommended to us by a friend and I am so glad we chose to work with her. She was very accommodating to showing us homes through practically every neighborhood in the Richmond area. We moved from out of town and weren't as familiar with all the neighborhoods. But with each home Cathy made a point to highlight some of the local restaurants, shops, and parks. Also, being first time home buyers we had a ton of questions about every step of the process. Cathy had recommendations for everything from the mortgage process and beyond. She truly cares about her clients. We never felt pushed into a home just because she was trying to make a sale. Cathy made sure we were getting ourselves into the right home and right neighborhood where we would ultimately be happy. Highly recommended! read more

Jenny and Alyssa were a pleasure to work with! I so appreciated all of their efforts in selling my home. They were very attentive and responsive to all of my questions from the initial listing appointment to making sure everything was comlpeted before the final buyer walk through. They also did a very nice job with the photos, video, partial staging and all of the additional advertising and marketing to get the listing out to as many potential buyers as possible. Finally, I appreciated all of their efforts with meeting agents and contractors on my behalf and probably most importantly with the successful negotiations and closing of my home. If you are looking for top notch real estate agents to work with in the Richmond marketplace you should definitely give them a shot. : ) read more

We love Cathy! We were relocating to the area from over 12 hours away, so having an experienced, organized agent was a MUST. Cathy absolutely exceeded our needs and expectations. She spent time getting to know our family and truly understood what we wanted for our next home, so when it came time to look at houses we saw quite a few that would have worked well for our family. We were able to find the PERFECT house in just one day! Cathy recommended a lender that gave us an amazing rate and she continued to facilitate communication between all parties along the way. The entire experience was seamless. This was hands down the most enjoyable buying process we have ever had because we were lucky to find an experienced agent that truly cares. Thank you!!! read more

We are in the process of selling our brownstone, buying property and building a home. We should be crazy with anxiety, but we are not. We just love our realtor, and have enjoyed the process immensely. Our realtor, Stuart Williamson, or "Stewie", as we fondly like to call him, has listened to us, delivered what we asked for, is always prepared, guided us, has drinks and food for us, picked us up, driven through Goochland, Henrico, Hanover, and Chesterfield, driven through the mud for us, always answers our calls, and had a ball all the while! We are thrilled to have found a beautiful property and are building a beautiful home with his help and knowledge. Best of all, we have a life-long friend. Thank you "Stewie" and the Jenny Maraghy Team. read more

My husband and I, both retired, were nowhere near ready to buy, let alone "upsize," when curiosity led me to a neighborhood open house hosted by Christine Shepard. The layout caught my imagination, and Christine not only shared the excitement of this unlikely client but took time to explain what it would take to go from curious to serious. She proved to be everything one would want in a realtor--knowledgeable, efficient, hardworking, responsive--but her encouragement and support, and her respect for us and our concerns, fostered a relationship of trust that enabled us to keep taking the next step until the house was ours. We would highly recommend her to anyone of any age and at any stage of looking for a new home! read more

We were relocating from FL to RVA and found Cathy Dyer's profile on Zillow. The connection was immediate and only got stronger when we met in person. Cathy is very approachable and warm, knows the area very well and most importantly, listens to her client's needs. Thanks to Cathy, we purchased a home that works great for our family. We had unique needs and Cathy was a wonderful sounding board when deciding on the neighborhood that would best fit our family. Relocating to a new area is stressful but Cathy made it as easy as it can be. We were in RVA to choose the property but did the rest of the purchase remotely with Cathy's help. She is overall awesome and will be our go-to person in the future. read more

We moved to the Richmond, VA area this spring from Alabama. Christine Shepard of the Jenny Maraghy Team was great with providing us information about the local area and helped us learn our way around the Richmond vicinity. We previously moved a number of times, but Christine provided a review of the purchasing process in Virginia, which has some unique requirements. She responded quickly and was easily available by both phone and email. Christine continues to respond to questions we have about the area even after the purchase was completed. And Christine was able to negotiate a great purchase contract for us in a strong seller's market. read more

Cathy Dyer is an excellent real estate agent who is professional, classy, extremely responsive, and willing to go to bat for you. She helped us navigate selling a home in the midst of a pandemic! She was adaptable when we had to change course due to no open houses being allowed and was vigilant in calling buyer's agents to make sure everyone attending a showing would be wearing the proper PPE. When obstacles arose she stayed optimistic, and we never felt pressured to do things a certain way. She is great at following up and making sure the job gets done, all with help from the amazing Jenny Maraghy team! read more

Mari was incredibly helpful to my husband and I through the process of buying our first home. She was very responsive at all times of the day and always had helpful answers. She took us to see many homes and always gave her honest opinion, which was very helpful for us, as we were first time home buyers! Mari was also helpful in the negotiating process and gave us great advice on what to ask for, we were even up against another couple for our house and won the bid because of her great advice. We loved working with Mari and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house in the Richmond area! read more

Laura Roesser is a delight to work with. Four years ago she helped us buy the house we were selling and there was never a moment's doubt that we would call on her to help us sell. Laura was knowledgeable and very helpful in assisting us in setting up our house to sell. As we moved through the process she was with us at every step, explaining how things work. When decisions had to be made she would present us with our options, explaining each, with enough detail to allow us to make informed choices without steering us in any particular direction. We make the wholehearted recommendation of Laura Roesser. read more

I can't begin to tell you how helpful Christine Shepard was in the sale of a property recently. Due to the location of the property, there were a few more obstacles than I had ever faced before. Regardless, Christine did additioinal research, suggested a respectable price, and we were able to sell for more than asking price, plus close within 30 days. Additionally, Christine loaded up her car with a few items I could not fit in mine on moving day, saving me a lot of time and money. I highly recommend Christine Shepard and the Jenny Maraghy Team for your realty needs. They truly work as a team. read more

Cathy was terrific from start to finish! The marketing plan that she and her team put together for us was unlike any we had seen (staging,video, social gathering with prospective buyers at our house, phenomenal social media presence) and it helped us secure a top of the market price. Cathy was calm yet determined throughout and communicated with us daily via visits, phone calls, emails, and texts. She took lead the with inspectors, contractors, attorneys and anyone else involved with the process. We could not have been any happier and would highly recommend Cathy Dyer!!

Christine was amazing! She helped us every step of the way - even before we moved to Virginia! Every time we had a question, she responded immediately. The peace of mind knowing that she was guiding us was so helpful during the stress of an out-of-state move. She was equally astute when it came time to put an offer on the table. It turned out she saved us almost $15,000 because of her knowledge of the market in this area. And even more than all this, she was a wonderful ambassador to Virginia and all the area has to offer. We highly recommend Christine for your real estate needs!! read more

Laura R. and the Joyner Fine Properties group were an absolute pleasure to work with. Laura was very informative and knowledgeable through the entire home buying process, and her attention to detail when it came to finding the right home that fit my needs was spectacular. Not to mention she was so patient with me and made sure that I was happy with the properties we looked at. This was my first home and i don't think it could have gone smoother than it did! I can't say enough about how awesome my experience was! Thanks so much for all your hard work! read more
