Long & Foster Realty

With me being out of state, I relied on her to handle a lot for me.  She made the home improvements run smoothly by letting contractors into the home for me.  There were a few issues throughout the process but she worked through them graciously for me and professional.  She made the entire process much less stressful.  I appreciated all of her hard work.

What can I say - the home warranties are really a gimmick. They contract inferior subcontractors that go through the motions to tinker with the problem. They never would schedule appointments in a timely manner. I would not be persuaded in the future by the guarantee or "safety net" supposedly offered by HMS in the home sale - I would not rely upon it after the home inspection, and I would certainly never allow the costs to be passed along to the buyer. In short, the assurance of such a warranty is deceptive, and should be immaterial to the sale of the home. Sellers should know that an educated buyer (I am now) is wise to the irrelevance of the warranty in moving the home.

Excellent service and friendly. They returned phone calls and answered questions. Highly recommend them.

Everything went fine.

Noel Bourroughs was our Realtor. I would recommend them to everybody.

I really liked working with Stephen Cade. I have worked with other Realtors and he is excellent compared to them. He was very good about always returning my calls and keeping me up to date with showings and any offers made on the property.

I worked with both Kevin Shirley and Michael Dillon of Long & Foster, Capitol Hill (the Real Astute team), but I worked most closely with Michael. It was a great experience! They initially gave me a thorough briefing on the home-buying experience along with a notebook of resources, which was very helpful to me as a first-time home buyer. In addition, Michael was very supportive and encouraging, acting as part realtor and part therapist during the often stressful search for a condo on a budget. After seeing about 10+ condos over 2 1/2 months, and a couple of attempts to make an offer, I finally found the right home with all of the "musts" that I was looking for within my limited price range. Michael patiently answered question after question, email after email, and in addition to being knowledgeable and supportive, he was a lot of fun in the process! He helped me from the first home visit through the home inspection all the way to closing. I will definitely work with them again!

Tina is always readily available and takes the time to answer my questions. She is very efficient, knowledgeable and accurate in giving advice. Tina keeps up with the markets and is full of excellent resources. I recommend Tina for being a responsible and professional agent.

After spending over a year with a terrible Weichert agent, Real Astute was absolutely top notch amazing. It was a terrific experience working with them and they found me the perfect house in less than a month. They listened to me and got to know me and I want to let everyone in the world know how great and helpful they are. Hire these guys when you are buying or selling a home - you will not be disappointed.
