I'm known for long reviews, so bear with me. A little about me, I am a young professional, and was…read morelooking for my first home on a VERY conservative budget within a 6wk timeline with a heavy preference of staying in the VB area. So not the easiest client.
I would absolutely recommend Jessica for all your real estate needs! Holy cow, that woman is a dynamite! I was originally working with a team of real estate agents. They felt 'off', I would give them a list of properties that I was interested in and they never explained why they weren't setting up viewings. After about 2wks with them, unbeknownst to me, they transferred me to Jessica. I was truly offput by my interaction with them and was hesitant at first. BUT, I am SO DANG GLAD they transferred me to Jessica!
From the moment we first texted/called she was on point, immediately responding back and providing me more information than I expected! She provided me access to her reinmls matrix which, I discovered, my previous agent should have done. Within 24hrs of being set up with her we had a phone conference to discuss exactly what I was looking for, again she was WAY more thorough then my previous experiences! Not once did she show me a listing that was above my price range, or pressure me towards viewing/considering a home that I did not show interest in. Not once did I get the feeling that she was "in it for the commission", in fact it is truly apparent that she is in it for the client!
While perusing listings on a Saturday afternoon I saw a few that clicked with me and sent it to her. She immediately responded back and within a few hours, had several of the listings scheduled! Went to see the listings and she gave me her honest feedback on them. Again, showing she cares more about the client then the commission. My very first listing that day was the ONE! I went home after viewing them and within 2hrs, texted her to go ahead with an offer. She walked me through what the process would look like. And that evening, with her due diligence and efforts, the contract with my offer and terms was completed, signed, and sent. The very next day she was able to update me that it was accepted!
The following month was full of a flurry of activity and Jessica was on top of literally everything. Again, as a first time homebuyer, there were so many things I did not think about or know...thank god for Jessica making sure to give me a heads up on any and everything! She got me pretty much everything on my wishlist during the walkthrough plus some! And she stayed on top of the seller's agent to get updates and everything I needed even though they were often not as easily accessible.
Final walkthrough and closing day, she still was working a thousand miles a minute getting things done for me. My mortgage lender (Tidewater mortgage) called to just check on me. He even commented that he had never worked with Jessica before but he has really enjoyed how on top of her game she is and she doesn't ever quit haha! Even though I closed, there are still a few repair issues that were not completed. Although technically she has sold the house to me, she is still diligently working to ensure that everything is good to go.
If you made it this far, congratulations haha! But seriously, go with Jessica...you won't regret it! She made what could have been a very stressful time, the least stressful time imaginable. I didn't have to worry about a thing with her on my side and I am so thankful that I ended up with her. I will definitely be contacting Jessica with my all future real estate needs!
