23Homes.com just got me an offer on my home in less than two weeks and sold. The Agents Gift and Glenn worked as a team that stood behind their commitment to selling my house ASAP. It was the best decision I made as I got two agents selling my home and looking out for my best interest. Before listing my home with 23Homes, I enlisted two companies to sell my home. These outdated traditional agents were over-promised and undelivered. Of course, they went with the conventional approach, running the market comp and listing my home on common sites such as Redfin, Realtor, Zillow and waiting for leads and referrals from other agents to show my house. I hardly have any walked through or offered within the first 90 days. In addressing my concerns, these agents requested me to drop my listing price, and I was not fond of that very much. I rejected their advice and decided to look for another agent. Gift and Glenn have been an asset to me in selling my home. Here are a few examples of their committed and value-added services to me. They are great listeners and understand what was important to me and my asking price for my home. Gift and Glenn took my requirements and came up with a price that was competitive in the market. They did this by educating me on what the industry expectations and demands are for selling a home. 23Homes has a robust, innovative, aggressive sales and marketing model in finding interested buyers. Their sales capability was the determining factor of selling my home. Lastly, they have excellent business acumen skills to manage and walk the whole process of selling a house seamlessly. It was a non-stressful experience, and I enjoyed working with these agents. 23Homes is on my exclusive list for buying and selling my next home. Great Performer and whatever it takes attitude are what I respect most about Gift and Glenn, two of the best real estate agents in the Washington Metro Area. Thank you 23Homes.com Michael read more

Buying or selling a home need not be stressful experience , if you are a first time home owner . The entire process and all the carefully planned steps encompassed through the stages can potentially be an enlightening experience if you have a smart, resourceful, ethical and engaging real estate agent working along your side promptly, tirelessly and efficiently. Gift Thongpia Hughes and her team was a great decision we made to sign on , given the really aggressive home bidding war like dynamics Herndon / fairfax area brings with it . If it wasn't for the highly resourceful , great networking skill (working seamlessly, negotiating with seller's agents , accessing critical info to formulate offer etc ) and highly responsive professional/ entrepreneur nature of our agent, we would have taken a long time to successfully close on any home buying offer . I have learned a lot through out this process, most importantly very important to work with an agent with strong networking skills, who possesses the business acumen , due diligence and not only help you in securing your cherished home but also work with you closely through the stages of lender contacts, inspection , suggest key contacts for any repairs or renovation work, etc ...that in my opinion is also very much a winning combination We highly recommend Gift Thongpia - hughes real estate services for buying / selling home. Thank you and best of wishes to you Gift! Very glad we worked with you! read more

I relocated to the Washington DC area and began the process of looking to purchase my first home. Purchasing a home is big financial commitment for me. Gift helped me go through the whole process and supported me all the way through to a very pleasant closing. Gift was referred to me by my co-worker. I did interview a couple of agents, however Gift stood above all the other with her knowledge, and pleasant client services. She was responsive and understand my needs and want. Moreover, she helped me understand the difference between homes that had been upgraded, that also came with a higher price, as oppose to distressed properties that carried a lower price. She schooled me on how to do my own upgrades. I trust her knowledge, sincerity and her great advice. As a result I was able to purchase a house that had equity from the moment I closed. Gift found me the perfect home.

Our questions were answered professionally and comprehensively. Simply put, we were very impressed with Gift and her team. Gift showed us a few homes. However, we fell in love with the very first home Gift showed us and she had picked out the perfect house for us! The problem was that the seller had seven other offers on the property.

I am former 20-year Military veteran and a 23-year retired real estate agent. Right off the bat, I have to say that Gift's services are excellent. I worked with buyers, sellers and investors. During my 23 year career I accumulated a few rental properties on the way. I was in the process of moving to and needed to sell my rental properties. I interview several realtors and I didn't like their marketing, approach or communication style. I found Gift professional, knowledgeable, experienced and aggressive. Her partner Glenn was great too. Their marketing was spot on better, offered more, hit more social media sites, listed my properties internationally, canvassing, professional images, website... simply put more than every other realtor and a lot more than they even know about. Take the advice from another realtor, the only realtor you should work with is Gift. read more
