During…read moreour initial communications with Jin, she was incredibly pleasant, professional and provided a variety of internet and mobile platforms so that we could share our home search requirements and timelines. Jin learned of our quick turn around house hunting trip from a foreign country and graciously without hesitation adjusted her schedule on short notice to meet and conduct an in-depth and relaxed interview of our wish list. Jin dedicated a number of days to meet with us on any potential homes to be viewed and did so in a punctual manner with a positive attitude. We ultimately selected a prebuilt home that checked a number of our personal wishlist boxes and Jin acted as our complete buyer advocate and was incredibly responsive in any questions and issues that needed to be addressed and resolved with both the builder and Mortgage Company. Jin was incredible from the initial introductory meeting and ultimately all the way to closing. We highly and without hesitation recommend Jin to anyone is search of a true Real Estate Professional who is in search of a great home!

Over…read morethe past 13+ years, and across multiple moves (this was our third home in Virginia alone), Jin has consistently been thorough and professional--from the earliest pre-planning stages all the way through post-closing. This most recent sale came with several contingencies that could have delayed or derailed the process. We were understandably worried, but Jin took each one by the horns and resolved them one by one. Thanks to her skill and determination, we closed right on schedule. How else can we describe her? Simply fabulous. Her team was equally wonderful and a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much, Jin!

She was prompt, polite and professional at all times, not to mention funny and a joy to be around! We will (and already have) recommend her to all close friends and family in search for a realtor. Thank you, Leslie, for making our dream of homeownership come true!

Having been involved in Real Estate for over 40 years as investors, landlords, homeowners (several…read morehomes) and licensed Real Estate sales people, Sue and I feel qualified to say that Leslie is the most honest, caring, compassionate and dedicated Real Estate person that we have ever met. Working with her as both buyers and sellers, we have personally witnessed her willingness to research every aspect of a home purchase that you are considering to identify potential problems and issues. Working with her as a seller, she provided us with real comps so that we knew that we were getting a fair price for our home and ultimately sold our house in 5 days in a very bad market. Having confidence that you are not paying too much as buyer and getting a fair price for your home as a seller is the ultimate goal, and Leslie did that. She is genuinely interested in you and not focused solely on the sales commission. In our opinion, Leslie is the standard by which all others should be judged. She is simply.....THE BEST! John & Sue

Jean's team developed a plan to give us the best possible chance of success. She also advised us to use an aggressive pricing strategy to increase interest.

After accepting a great offer, we were then so impressed with the communication and efficiency of the team during the closing process. Trusting her strategy was one of the best decisions we've ever made. We can not recommend The Garrell Group enough!​

This is not a fake review. Check out my account and you will see that I have been on Yelp for…read morealmost two years. You will see further that I have never reviewed anything until today. I come to Yelp occasionally to lurk, and that is about it. I have never reviewed anything because, whether good or not, the products and services that I have received have never caused such high emotional amplitude in me that I felt compelled to write public reviews about them. That changed two days ago, on October 6, 2014-- the day that I closed on my first home. As a result of working with The Garrell Group I have learned that Realtors don't just find homes and sell them for people. Good Realtors shape the home-buying/home-selling process and then shepherd it to its final conclusion. They are the ultimate conductors of the thing, and they work exceptionally hard to earn their pay. Mark and Jean Garrell are good Realtors. They are consummate pros who respect their clients and their profession. In short, they are The Real Deal, and I do not think you can find better Realtors anywhere. As I look back on my first contact with them I see nothing but a long chain of personal growth. From the very beginning of our home search, The Garrells skillfully educated me and patiently worked with me as we narrowed in on a house. I cannot stress how accommodating, how kind, and honorable these people are. The fact is, I did not just want a house. I had quite a few definite parameters, and yet once these parameters were established, they became the parameters that Mark and Jean insisted upon whenever we looked at a prospective house. They showed me what to look for in a house, what is really important, and what is not. We looked at a wide variety of homes, spread all across Northern Virginia. At every point they helped us see how each home stacked up to the market. But once we nailed down the right house, then the hard work began. From the moment we made the offer on our house to the day of our closing, The Garrells were there by our side. They worked with our mortgage broker to ensure that we would not be blindsided with negative surprises (I stress this most powerfully. Make sure the broker and Realtor are honorable and that they are working together for you). The Garrells arranged and then conducted us through inspections, managed our contingencies, and helped us negotiate an incredible stream of favorable terms. It was shocking to see it unfold before us, especially since I have so often heard horror stories of unresponsive agents who have permitted deals to come crashing down due to incompetence. That just never happened with us because Jean was constantly on top of the project. She artfully worked us through the entire thing, and then, as I sat at the table on closing day, she and Mark were both right there at my right hand. I only write this review because I enjoy experiencing the work of highly competent people, and want my experience to be enjoyed by as many others as possible. We all work hard for our money. The Garrells respect this and you see it in everything they do. As a result, I will personally never so much as think of using a Realtor other than those at The Garrell Group. They are so responsive, and work so hard to take care of you, that you would just be shooting yourself in the foot to deal with anyone else.

June sold our previous home, and the experience was seamless from start to finish. We interviewed several agents, but once we met June and sat down with her, our decision was made. June presented us with a comprehensive overview of the housing market, and answered all our questions. Her marketing strategies were outstanding, and she held open houses for us almost every weekend. At the close of each open house, June called us and filled us in on how it went - and then followed through by contacting those visitors she considered potential buyers. We received several offers, which June reviewed with us. Once our decision was made, she guided us through the entire process. Because of her experience and professionalism, along with a calm and positive demeanor, it went smoothly - and quickly - straight through to settlement. Since then, I have recommended June to two other friends - and they were also pleased. We most certainly will use June when the time comes to sell our current home, and purchase another, as we downsize.

She spent time giving her perspective on the market and easing my concerns about getting started before we had a formal contract with her. She was willing to see many houses throughout our search as we looked at too small and too large homes until we found one right in the middle. Lara was fun to work with, she was always upbeat and helpful. More than anything we felt like Lara was 100% focused on our needs as a family, not about closing a quick deal, not about optimizing her commission, and not about what would have been easy. She felt like part of our family and that she was as invested in finding the right thing for us as we were. She was always thinking strategy for us when she saw we had some interest in a home, and her communication with the other agents was awesome as this approach helped us gain insights and positioning. She talked us through the strategy to make our offer to win against 7 other buyers and we still felt like we got great value for our home. Our only regret is that we used a different agent to sell our prior home and it would have been much smoother and more positive experience with Lara by our side! We also worked with Kim and Kristina at different portions of the closing process and both were great, they were communicative and responsive and gave great information when we had questions.
