As a first-time home buyer, I had no idea what to expect during this process and was initially overwhelmed by the idea of finding a house with everything I was looking for, while still remaining within my price range. I am so thankful that I had Colleen as my Realtor® - her extensive experience, knowledge of the area, patience, and good humor was invaluable! She guided me through the process step-by-step - explaining (and often re-explaining) the terminology, what to be aware of, and what to expect next in the process - basically providing me with a crash course in homebuying 101! She does her research and stays up-to-date with the latest trends, market stats, and programs for first-time home buyers (which ended up helping me out tremendously)! She provided solid advice and is someone who is honest, trustworthy, and always has the best interests of her clients at heart, which are importa…

She provided solid advice and is someone who is honest, trustworthy, and always has the best interests of her clients at heart, which are important (and rare) values to find in a Realtor®. She was available day and night to look at properties and answer questions. Additionally, she is extremely personable and somehow made this very daunting process feel nearly effortless and even fun! I love my first home and I owe that entirely to Colleen. I cannot more highly recommend a Realtor®, and if I buy or sell any homes in the future, I will use Colleen without giving it a second thought. Thanks again!

Words are just not enough to express how deeply grateful and indebted my husband and I are to Colleen. She has held our hands and guided us through a very frightening process. She gracefully and seamlessly simplified the very daunting and overwhelming process of buying our first home. She introduced us to her extensive network of trusted contacts. Each and every single one of her contacts (Mike Travis, our lender; Mark Svrcek, our broker; and Danny Patkus, our home inspector) provided us with the same level of integrity and hard work. Mike Travis and his team were unbelievably thorough and accessible at all times. Mark went out of his way to accommodate our schedules. He advised us and patiently worked with us as we searched for that perfect home. Danny's experience (and parental sensibility) was truly reassuring and appreciated. The people Colleen surrounded herself with are a true test…

Colleen was recommended to me by a couple of friends who had chosen her as their Realtor® when they were buying their first home. When they were looking to sell their first home and find/buy their second home, they chose to hire Colleen again. Therefore, I felt confident I was in good hands. This was proven when I worked with Colleen to find and purchase my first home. As a first-time home buyer, I was nervous about the process but Colleen helped guide me through it. She was very responsive and answered my many questions. Whenever we toured homes, she would point out important things about them/the neighborhoods that I may not have caught myself. Also, I never felt pressured by her to do anything I wasn't ready to do during the process, which was something I greatly appreciated.

Also, I never felt pressured by her to do anything I wasn't ready to do during the process, which was something I greatly appreciated. She is very knowledgeable about the DMV area and all aspects of the home purchasing/selling process, such as market trends, re-saleability, neighborhood history, lenders, home inspectors, home warranties, and other important items a buyer/seller should consider. Whether you are choosing to buy or sell a home, I highly recommend Colleen.

Colleen is the best Realtor® I have worked with have used her to buy 3 houses and sell 2 over the years. Her knowledge of the area and years of experience made buying our house an enjoyable process. She spends as much time as it takes to find your dream home and is available day or night. When it comes to selling your house, she does her homework and provides the right advice to sell your house quickly for the price you are looking for. She sold our last house in 10 days for the asking price! Her contract experience ensures you will not miss anything throughout the process which is invaluable in such an important investment. Colleen embodies the value a Realtor® provides in this age of internet sites and searches!
