To say that Shannon is an amazing realtor is an understatement. When we first reached out to…read moreShannon we were looking to buy in the Northern Virginia/DC area, and even though we were still 6+ months away from buying our next home she still provided us with daily updates and also routinely checked in with us to answer any questions and provide vital recommendations based on what we were looking for in our next home. Once we moved in the area and started looking at homes, she always made sure that we were happy with what we wanted and never tried to push us or sugarcoat something in order to push us in any way in order to make the sale. She also brought up key items that we didn't think about to help us narrow down properties that meet all of our needs as a family (location, work commute, school, lifestyle, community). Once we found the home that we wanted, herself and her team were able to work around the clock and also from around the globe to make sure we were able to have the winning bid. Then once we went in to escrow on the property she negotiated diligently and fought for very key credits which we weren't really expecting, which was all based on her vast knowledge of real estate market ensuring we were able to get the best possible outcome when closing on the home. Even after we closed on the home she continues to reach out and stay in contact with us to make sure everything is ok and also provide points of contact if we need recommendation on items we are looking to have done on the home. Shannon has made the entire homebuying process incredible as she is not only a great realtor but also a good friend. We couldn't be happier and if you are looking for a realtor to work with, look no further she is the one! Thank you Shannon! We are forever grateful!

Our experience working with Jin Wickwire to sell our home has been nothing short of wonderful. 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!

We don't usually leave negative reviews, but our experience with our former landlord and real…read moreestate agent, Jin Wickwire, unfortunately ended on a very disappointing note. While the home-buying process itself was smooth, our move-out experience was the complete opposite. As a family with young children, we were repeatedly questioned and made to feel uncomfortable over normal wear and tear......things like minor drywall nicks that are expected in any home with kids. These were already being addressed on our end with a contractor, as we had communicated. Despite agreeing to cover repairs and forfeit a $3,000 deposit, we were met with unnecessary comments and a level of aggression that felt unprofessional and unwarranted. It was especially disappointing given that we chose to work with her over many other options, expecting a level of trust and respect in return. We believe in accountability and were fully willing to take care of any legitimate damages....but respect and professionalism should go both ways. Based on this experience, we would not recommend doing business with Jin.

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Natalie and Curt. We were moving from San…read moreDiego, California to the Northern Virginia area and Natalie was recommended to us by some friends. We had been talking with Natalie and had planned to come out and explore the area and look at homes prior to the move. Then COVID hit. Our jobs did not allow us to travel at all. So we ended up having to buy our home, in an unfamiliar area, sight unseen, from across the country. It could have gone horribly; but Natalie and Curt made the process amazing! We knew nothing about the area so we were extremely dependent on them and Natalie was spot on with her recommendations of areas based on our wants and needs. Natalie could not have found us a more perfect area and more perfect house. They even had food for us and our toddler when we arrived knowing that we had been driving all day. We are so thankful for them, will without a doubt use them again, and will recommend them to everyone we know!

Obtaining the services of a real estate agent is much more than "finding someone to sell your…read morehome". This is especially true if you are selling an inherited property as I was earlier this year. A good real estate agent will know the area, know the laws and rules and will help assess your home and get it listed and sold for a "good price". A great real estate agent is a counselor, a partner in your effort, someone who "has your back" throughout the process in addition to doing all of the real estate work. Philippa Main is an *outstanding* real estate agent and an even better person. My father passed away leaving a home in Woodbridge, Virginia - the home in which I grew up and which contained almost 50 years of possessions. I contacted Philippa in March of 2026 to discuss its potential sale even as the house was in significant disarray while I engaged in the slow process of cleaning it out and sorting through the many things my parents had accumulated over the years. When she visited the home, I looked around and threw up my hands. Philippa looked around and said, "we can make this happen." I sought her out specifically because she mentioned having expertise in sales of homes that are inherited - a particular niche that involves a delicate dance of handling family dynamics, wills, probate laws and determining what, if any, money should be put into renovations or improvements that will get a reasonable return on the investment. From our first conversation over the phone - which she took time to do in the middle of a busy weekend - Philippa was incredibly personable, easy to talk to and anticipated many of my questions and many of my concerns as we talked. By the end of our conversation, I felt like I was chatting with a friend who had expertise I needed. Over the following three months, she was a (rapidly-responded-to) text or phone call away as I navigated getting the house ready for sale. She helped outline a schedule and a plan to list the home. She connected me with a large network of trusted service providers from junk removers to contractors to painters to flooring experts from whom I obtained estimates and some of whom I contracted to help clear out the house and prepare it for sale. While she always reiterated that she would back any decision I made regarding the house, I always sought her counsel when making major decisions such as whether or not to spend money on renovations and, if so, which ones were most important. Of course, there were obstacles - some amusing, some less-so - but Philippa helped me handle each one with a confidence borne of having "seen it before". That is an incredibly valuable thing when dealing with a stressful situation. In the end, the home was listed in June and had nearly seventy showings in three days. The house sold for well over its asking price and after all of it I know some things: The home could have been sold by another agent. But few, if any, others could have been a partner in the process the way Philippa was for me. She was a trusted resource, a confidant, a person who knew when to inject humor into a situation and when helping me vent was what was needed - she understands people and the process of selling an inherited home in addition to being a brilliant real estate agent who knows the area and who knows how to get the job done. I couldn't recommend her more for ANY real estate work but, especially, if you face the task of preparing and selling an inherited property.

Her dilligence and attention saved us thousands and got us into exactly the home we hoped to get within the time frame we wanted and at a great price. She expertly guided us through the entire process and eliminated all the stress of the home buying experience. I refer all my friends and family to her because I know she will take excellent care of them and protect their interests from beginning to end and is always willing to go to bat for every detail that is important to her clients.

When we decided to list our house for sale, Ingrid came out, looked at our house, and gave us a list of things to fix. She gave us an idea of what she would list our house for if we fixed everything vs. leaving it as is. Once we got the repairs done, she had a photographer take pictures of our home and had some very professional-looking brochures made up. She also suggested that we list the house as "coming soon" while we were finishing everything up. Within ONE DAY, we had a contract on our house for full asking price. Since our house sold fast, we had to quickly find somewhere to move. Ingrid arranged her schedule so we could go look at houses at the most convenient time for my husband and I. Unlike when we bought our first house, Ingrid didn't show us a bunch of houses outside our budget; she actually told us not to get discouraged because she could find us the house we wanted in our price range. We only had to go out looking once to find the house we wanted. I can't count how many times Ingrid told us, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Ingrid is a very assertive negotiator and made sure everything was done just right and for the right price. She also has a ton of experience and a huge network of people she works with, so no matter what problem popped up, she always had someone to refer us to. We called her many times panicking about one issue or another, but she took care of everything, and we were able to close on both houses the same day without a hitch. Ingrid's knowledge, dedication and professionalism are invaluable and I highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

We had multiple offers in the first week of listing due and quickly closed on the sale of our home, primarily because of Penny's efforts. Penny stayed in frequent contact with us, and made herself available after normal business work hours to make our home sale successful in a very short amount of time. Penny is one of the hardest working people we have met in this industry. She is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the housing market in Fauquier County and the surrounding areas, market value, loan options and their effect on closing, and many contractual issues. She often provided her expertise to less seasoned realtors during this process. Penny had a great eye for staging. Her professional photographer took amazing photos of our home, and there is a clear difference in professional photos versus those taken from a cell phone. Home sales and purchases can be highly stressful, so we highly recommend Penny Glenn. You want to trust your important purchase to a top-notch professional. Penny is the gold standard!
