Sold a Single Family home in 2003 for approximately $475K in Herndon, VA.
Without Michele we wouldn't have bought the right house for our family. We'd worked with another agent before Michele and felt that agent didn't understand our preferences or needs -- she kept showing us houses that simply were not right (neighborhood, floor plan, cost, etc.), and sighing, "Okay. What's wrong with *this* one?" when we turned down each one. So we found Michele and very quickly found the right house. But it was already under offer. Oh no! Regardless, Michele pointed us to other houses that would work for us but nothing quite clicked...until Michele discovered that the offer on "right house" we'd found had fallen through. She moved quickly to arrange a viewing, organize the paperwork, and negotiate an offer -- even going so far as working with her management to squeeze the very last dollar possible out of our budget -- that ultimately proved successful. (Note: This was all during the real estate boom years. Could she have sold us less of a house at a higher price? Probably. But she didn't; she knew our budget and empathized with our needs, and made the situation work.)

Michele also helped us rent a townhome for a few years, and then sell it some time later. Again, she worked hard to ensure the sale went smoothly, acting with poise and nerves of steel in negotiating with the buyers' agent.

Michele truly cares about her clients. She knows that families need different kinds of spaces to each other in order to be happy in their homes. She and her team work aggressively to meet these needs, dedicating significant time and energy to get the right house at the right price. We truly appreciated the work Michele did for us, and have enormous enthusiasm for recommending her and her team without reservation.

Sold a Single Family home in 2008 for approximately $625K in Fairfax, VA.
Michele (and her team) is FABULOUS! When we first put our house on the market (in a not so great economy) I didn't understand it when she said that "especially in this market, the realtor can be the biggest difference." After she helped us sell our house - in just 2 days - I thought all our work was done. However, there ended up being 3 deals linked together all of which had to go through in order for each of us to get the house we wanted (if the house we were trying to buy fell through in the negotiations, then our contract was void, and then theirs would fall through, etc.). The seller said they had gotten a better offer from someone else but preferred to work with Michele (since she was successful at keeping the deals together) if we could match the other offer (which we did). There were of course multiple more hoops to jump through which Michele helped us navigate successfully....and then the rest is history. I should also mention that Michele's additional expertise and services were what put us in the best position to sell the house as quickly as we did. With two small kids, the stress that saved us to sell quickly was phenomenal. Michele also knew the area so well that when I laid out my criteria (x minute commute, near grandparents, etc.) she gave me specific streets as boundaries to target a realistic area where I could enjoy a bigger house and not curse my commute. We were very fortunate to have selected Michele as our agent and hope you will do the same.
