Selling a house in McLean, Virginia, from Western Canada shouldn’t be hard, right?
As executor of my cousin’s estate, I had to sell her townhome once the property was emptied. When I interviewed Amy Davis and Lisa Parcells, their knowledge of the market and their enthusiasm was apparent. They came with a solid plan in mind for marketing this property, and I sensed they would be a great team to sell it for me.
With their connections, they arranged everything to get the property ready to sell—stripped wallpaper, complete paint inside, deep cleaning interior, purchased new light fixture, and power washing outside! The place looked amazing and was ready to sell!!
This listing went up on a Friday at 4 pm, and by early next morning they presented an amazing offer, well over list, no conditions, and 30 day possession! All of their hard work paid off in dividends, as this was the type of offer we hoped for.
Throughout the month before closing, Amy and Lisa were always available for any last minute details that needed attending. They were very responsive and made this process very smooth. The sale closed on time!!
I would highly recommend their services, absolutely professional and topnotch!!
We had the privilege of working with Lisa as our realtor when looking to purchase a home in Reston, VA. As first-time home buyers, we were really not sure what to expect or do during this process. Lisa did a great job educating us and was very patient, answered all of our questions and was with us in every step of the buying process. In a highly competitive market, Lisa stayed positive and hopeful throughout the process. She was extremely responsive to e-mails and was available to see a property at a moment’s notice. She was very honest and supportive. She never forced her opinions on us; instead, she gave us the space and opportunity to discover and learn on our own. Lisa was with us the whole time, all the way to signing the papers. She made it an enjoyable experience from start to finish.
We absolutely loved working with Lisa and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy their home.
It is with great pleasure and gratitude that I recommend Lisa Parcells as a real estate agent for any individual or family selling, buying or renting a new home.
My circumstances were difficult: I was tasked with selling a large home (at the holidays) and finding a smaller home to rent within a close time frame as my resources were limited.
Lisa helped me get my home ready to show in record time – recommending how to stage the rooms, getting the gorgeous pictures and brochures done quickly, and even helping to rearrange the garage!
My home did sell quickly (thanks to Lisa and her spot-on listing price), and without missing a beat Lisa showed me everything to rent within my price range (she knows the area like the back of her hand). I love what she found (it was not fully listed in the MLS but was coming soon).
Moving under any circumstances is challenging, and Lisa was upbeat, encouraging and gracious, all the while maintaining a professional integrity second to none.
I have bought and sold several homes but never quite as efficiently or painlessly, thanks to Lisa. I would recommend her highly and would be happy to discuss my experience in more detail. Lisa can provide my contact info.
