Without a doubt Katie Loughney is the consummate Real Estate professional. Katie successfully listed, marketed and sold my property on schedule and above asking price. Katie’s astute understanding of the local market, reliable advice and skillful use of online marketing presentation tools were key to a successful outcome. If you are in search of an experienced Realtor, I highly recommend you contact Katie and give her the opportunity to exceed your expectations.

Katie's calm professionalism was just what we needed when selling our house in 2020, during a time when the pandemic made the process even more difficult. She provided everything we needed to prepare our house for sale, then did a great job of promoting it. When the offers started coming in, she used her experience and knowledge of the market to help us evaluate them, and to negotiate with buyers. Once an agreement was reached, she made getting through the closing and final details a smooth and easy process. I highly recommend her.

Katie was wonderful to work with! She has significant experience working in the DC-area real estate market and is extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend working with Katie.

Katie was amazing to work with! Katie came to us by a family referral and took over during the middle of our home buying search. As first time home buyers we were very anxious and Katie was extremely reassuring, responsive and had all the answers to our questions. Katie made sure to specifically target and watch the neighborhoods that we were interested in and she would always get us into homes, even if they had limited showing times. Katie and her team always responded to emails promptly and this was what helped us to secure the home we bought by providing us with advice on our offer and ways to become more advantageous of buyers. We cannot recommend Katie enough!

The first word that comes to mind when describing Katie Loughney is "trust." Our family had complete trust in her when purchasing our first home, and she delivered. We didn't think twice about the process, paperwork, and legal matters, since she had that covered, and it helped us focus on simply finding the right home. Katie is extremely patient, knowledgeable, and responsive - we knew that we would hear from her quickly if I had a question. We purchased a home in our ideal location within four months of walking into Katie's office for the first time. All of the contractors that she has recommended post-sale have been top notch. We were recommended her by friends of ours, and we are happy to pass along the recommendation to others!

Katie Loughney is truly the best real estate agent we have ever worked with. She found us a house within our price range in a seller’s market when virtually nothing was coming on the market. She sold our condo to a buyer that offered to sign a contract “sight unseen” before it hit the market. Her advice was spot on and she knew exactly what the right selling price was and how to negotiate the best price for our purchase. She was in constant communication with us and responded quickly and patiently to all our questions. Katie seems to have very good relationships with her peers, which we’re sure was helpful in negotiations. We were out of the country in the middle of the sale of our condo and she made sure everything went smoothly, which lifted a big weight off of our shoulders. Even after the sale and purchase, we have kept in touch and Katie has helped us with referrals for work in our new house. She truly cares about her clients and we are so appreciative of everything she’s done for us. We very highly recommend Katie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Katie is an absolute pro and totally attentive to seller needs. We needed to sell our townhome as quickly as possible, and Katie condensed the process so that we had it listed in a week (complete with a recommended contractor to fix odds and ends and a professional stager for pictures and video). We had quick, competitive offers and moved out a month later. She is prompt, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her and her team for all real estate needs!

Katie was absolutely wonderful to work with during our search for and purchase of our first home. She was responsive, patient, and kind throughout the entire 5-month process. We confidently put our trust in her and never felt pressured in any way. Her wisdom, knowledge, and determination were invaluable as we navigated the competitive market of Northern VA. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

I highly recommend Katie. She was extremely professional, and a very calming presence during the hectic home buying process. She always made herself available to attend showings and provided helpful information. I already referred Katie to friends and she was able to help them quickly find a great home as well.

Katie and her team are true professionals. Her calm and caring manner is just what I needed as I downsized from my home of 38 years to a two bedroom condo. With her excellent knowledge of the housing market, she guided me through every step from getting the house ready to sell, setting the right price and advising on financing. She patiently answered every question and never pressured me to make a decision. When looking for a condo, she quickly assessed what I wanted and only presented me with the right options. I found exactly what I wanted in the condo I purchased. Katie and her team are the BEST!

Ms. Loughney is a consummate professional and my spouse and I had the good fortune of being referred to her through a friend. Three attributes in particular make Ms. Loughney an exceptional real estate agent: she always kept our best interests in mind, which means that she never pressured us and took took her role as an impartial advisor very seriously; she was exceptionally responsive on all matters large and small, even going so far as to arrange for a member of her team to show us a new listing in very short order during her brief absence; and her calm and unflappable demeanor is downright refreshing. Stop searching and choose Katie Loughney. You'll be working with the very best in the business.

Katie and Liz did a fantastic job from start to finish with the selling and purchasing of our new home. They are very knowledgeable, professional and were easy to work with under our guidelines and specifications that we wanted/needed. Donnie B.

If there was an option for an A+ rating we would have selected that instead of just "A." Katie was such a delight to work with. We didn't know what to expect, not having purchased/sold a house in 25 years, but Katie made this process so easy, transparent, and successful! Questions were answered promptly and thoroughly, the process was laid out in advance and updates were timely, and best of all Katie, and her assistant Liz, were upbeat, positive, and great to work with. You won't go wrong working with them!

Katie is amazing! Very friendly, calm, inquisitive, with a keen eye for details, and willing to go the extra mile! We worked with her for about 5 months and she was able to assist our family from a distance. Non-local buyers have a lot of "barriers" while looking for a house in a different location, and Katie accommodated us in every possible way. We recommend Katie to anyone!

She is fantastic! Katie went above and beyond to make sure my place looked great and she sold it within 10 days! It needed a little work and she facilitated getting all of the handymen I needed to get it up to date. She staged by place, which I think made it sell so quickly. She answered every question I had and made sure that the settlement happened without a hitch. I would definitely recommend Katie if you want a smart, competent, thorough Realtor that is kind, supportive and has your best interests at heart.

It was a pleasure to work with Katie and her team.

Katie and her team were fantastic from the beginning stages of preparing our home to sell, right up to the purchase of our new home. She walked us through each step of the process. We could not be more delighted. If and when we ever sell and/or purchase a home again, Katie will be the first person we call to start the procedure.

Katie was terrific. She's someone you can trust. We were first time home buyers and she walked us through the process carefully and thoughtfully. She was very patient with us as we figured out over time what we were looking for, was always responsive, and supported us throughout the process. It took us a while to find a house and we were outbid multiple times, but she never pushed us--she gave us her opinion but never tried to sway our thinking. We truly appreciated Katie as our realtor and would strongly recommend her.

Throughout the process she was knowledgeable, accessible, and very helpful. We interviewed several other agents and found Katie the most professional and prepared – working with her cemented our great first impression. She accommodated our schedules and made it easy to schedule showings, review listings, and then offers. She, and her assistant Liz, kept both transitions moving forward smoothly. I highly recommend Katie for both buyers and sellers in the Northern Virginia area.

As buyer's agent, she displayed infinite patience and good humor through what took us many months of frustrating effort. As seller's agent, she made the process fast and efficient. Her referrals to other companies were always reliable, and her resourcefulness in proposing options and solutions kept the ball rolling and ensured that we received a good price under the right terms. We presented many difficulties to her as an agent, not least that we spent half the year in Florida and needed to conduct much business from a distance. Her knowledge and experience were invaluable to us through the process, and we would give her high marks and recommend her services highly.

Katie and her team were an absolute delight; the quality of their work is outstanding. Katie is truly a knowledgeable professional --- and a quiet force. She comes prepared, she provides thorough and informed answers to all of your questions, and really aims her professional advice on what is best for YOU -- not in getting the deal, like we have experienced with other realtors. We first saw Katie selling the house across our street. It was remarkable the amount of effort she and her team put into getting the house ready. It sold in less than five days. Soon thereafter, we decided to start working with a new realtor (we had been working with our previous one for years) -- having seen the standard that Katie set for her clients' first-hand. We interviewed five different realtors before we made an informed decision to work with Katie. Here's why -- each of the other realtor's showed up and gave us lip service. They claimed they would find us the perfect house and sell ours at the perfectly high price. Why? Because. Trust them, they said. See, but here's where Katie was different. She showed up with spreadsheets, market analysis, sample marketing material, and an entire presentation designed around the sale of our unique property. Who knows how long it took her to make, but the work she did earning her MBA became apparent then. We weren't in a rush; in fact, we wanted to take it slow and make the right decision, which is difficult in this market. We looked at a few homes, and she took notes. Yes, literally, she took notes. Then she started pulling listings that she'd though we'd like -- and we told her what we liked and didn't about each listing. She listened, like really really listened. We then saw some more properties, and wham... she found one that was coming on the market in a couple of weeks. She reached out to the selling agent and was able to get us into the house to view, pre-market. She took us back time and time again that week, as we made our informed decision. We brought in contractor after contractor, literally spending countless hours there, to see if we could add the addition that we wanted. Thankfully we could and went forward with the sale. The purchase of our new home went off without a hitch -- thanks to Katie. And, the sale of our old house was so quick and easy, it is surreal that it even happened. Again, it was pre-market at an above-market price -- and again, Katie acted in our best interest, not hers. Potential buyers and sellers, I can not recommend Katie and her team highly enough. She really has set the bar at a whole new level for residential real estate in this market. We will gladly work with her again.

Katie is an outstanding realtor. We've worked with Katie on two home purchases in Arlington and have been consistently impressed with her professionalism, competence, and integrity. Katie provided relevant market research and guidance without ever making us feel pushed or pressured to make a particular offer. She was responsive and patient in response to our questions and moved us smoothly to closing. We look forward to working with Katie again when we sell our current home and would recommend her enthusiastically!

Working with Katie has been a wonderful experience for me and my wife. She and her associate Ryan Verey sold our house at a very good price in only a week, then secured the perfect condo for us the day after we closed on the house. Her expert negotiating and contractual knowledge and the remarkable speed and efficiency with which she does everything is truly astonishing. We were in constant communication with her. She is extremely approachable and easy to work with and became a sort of confidante and friend to us during the whole process. Her combination of professionalism, courtesy and extreme patience (she is unflappable) make her an unbeatable choice as a realtor. We could not recommend her more highly.

Katie knew exactly what I wanted and needed in a new place to live. She was thorough, kind, and caring without her, I’d still be in a mouse – infested apartment.

We identified Katie Loughney through Angie's List.  By dint of her consistent pleasantness, professionalism and punctuality, I would confirm prior reviews' top marks.

When we interviewed Katie, we were impressed with her command of the area market.  Her fee was standard & competitive. Throughout the subsequent process, her actions and communications were timely; she never left us hanging as to the status of either.

She was prompt with the initial proposal and pricing evaluation; they were comprehensive.  Then we did a walk-through with a staging consultant with an obviously attuned eye for design.  Katie followed up with an exhaustive set of notes which we then thoroughly implemented.  The photos & 360-degree video of the staged property were stunning, absolute eye-candy! 

Katie held our opening on the planned-for date, and followed it with a series of Sunday open houses, along with periodic individual visits on other days.  Without fail, Katie got back to us within two days--usually the next day--about would-be buyers' responses. 

Within six weeks, we received an offer for our asking price.  Katie accompanied the buyers' appraiser during his visit.  That his appraisal came in at her price testified to her own pricing skill.  She attended our closing.

I would not hesitate to recommend Katie to others.
