Dave Watson2024-12-12 It is hard to imagine a better realtor than Sharmane. From the first she educated us on the NOVA market, coached us on the approach to buying in the NOVA market, and when the time came negotiated on our behalf to get the house we wanted. She truly cares for the people she represents, and it shows in all the personal touches. She also has great connections, including our mortgage broker who made it possible for us to make a successful offer in a competitive situation with no financing or appraisal contingency. She is truly the best! Ian Stout2024-09-25 Sharmane is a phenomenal agent She had my back through the home buying process - not only did she proactively set up showings for good fits, she also made sure to advise me when a home was either not a good fit, or that the seller didn't have my best interests in mind. I'm extremely happy with the place we did settle on, and I would recommend Sharmane to anyone! Kelly Cook2024-07-30 We used Shar to sell our townhome because we saw the magic she worked on other properties in our neighborhood - way above what we thought was market price, quick closings, etc. When we met with her, it was quickly apparent she was a consummate professional who is an expert in the NoVA marke - she told us she uses data and discernment to sell homes, and that really spoke to us! She is very clear about what needs to be done to get a great price, very communicative, and gives great advice. We couldn’t have asked for a smoother selling and closing process with Shar and all the resources at her disposal. We give Shar our highest recommendation! Debbie Wallace2024-07-14 Sharmane was everything we could have hoped for in a real estate agent. We had to sell my parents' home under difficult circumstances, and Sharmane was a true partner every step of the way. As a person, she was kind, considerate, and respectful as she walked us through the process of selling. As a real estate agent, she was unstoppable. She deeply understood our local market and our house in particular. I really appreciated Sharmane's prayerful discernment, and how it helped us set our goals for the sale. Her clear-headed, steely-eyed, and super-focused plan got us everything we had hoped for. She was clear about her process and her plan for bringing our house to market, and she was always open to questions and clarifications. She honored our memories and our ties to the house while also helping us see the path forward. She never lost sight of the business at hand, but, more importantly, she never lost sight of the family involved. Before, during, and after the sale of our house, Sharmane was a first-rate teammate. Zachary Przystup2024-05-31 A growing family meant that we came across our next home a couple years ahead of schedule. We had to buy first, sell later--our townhome didn't go on the market until the day after we closed on our new home. That was stressful. But Shar had taken all the steps needed to ensure that our townhome hit the market immediately, and that it came off the market in less than a week. When a promising offer fell through and we began to fret (see buy first, sell later), Shar kept calm and stuck to her game plan, explaining her process along the way. Ultimately, she helped us find a buyer who was willing to pay a good price, close quickly, and allow us a free rent-back for a month so that we could get our things in order and prepare to move. Shar is extremely organized and detail-oriented, an excellent communicator, and helped us to hit every single one of our goals. Thank you! Mike D2024-05-30 Wow, where to start with describing the awesomeness of Sharmane. We knew Shar as a friend before we even knew she was a realtor. We hired her because we knew she was a woman of integrity who served the Lord with abandon. We knew she'd bring the same energy to our home sale, and boy did she ever! Simply put, we put ourselves in her hands and gave her full control. That was the smartest thing we could have done. She walked us through every single question, was always positive, and responded promptly at ALL times. The outcome? Our house sold in three days for WELL OVER the asking price. Truly, it could not have gone better. If you want your house sold fast, for the highest amount, with absolutely zero drama, Sharmane is the agent for you. Lukas Hayter2024-05-05 My wife and I had an amazing experience buying our first condo in Arlington with Sharmane! A friend highly recommended her, and she was the best realtor to work with! As first-time condo buyers, her expertise totally guided us through the process and what to look for. She was super easy to communicate with, advocated for and understood our needs, and we always felt like she was protecting our interests. Her negotiation skills were top-notch, and her kind, caring nature made the whole experience stress-free. Highly recommend! Katherine Przystup2024-04-12 When my husband and I learned we were having twins, we knew that we needed to move out of our townhouse and into a single family home with more space and a yard. We knew Shar personally and felt confident she would be able to help us through this process. We initially told her our timeline was 18-24 months out, but when we stumbled across a great home within a few weeks of giving her that timeline, she immediately got to work on our offer during an extremely busy time. Somehow that didn't slow her down. Shar gave us the tough advice we needed to hear to make a winning offer in a highly competitive market. We only had to make one bid, and it was not the highest one. Shar used her vast network of relationships and fantastic people skills to make sure the offer was competitive in all the right ways, not just the price tag. It was an enormous relief to be able to make this process happen so quickly--about 10 days total--and be able to find, purchase, and move to a new home all within my second trimester. Shar has a bumper sticker on her car that says "I can help you buy/sell your house!" She's not lying. Amber Reini2024-03-28 The process of selling our condo with Sharmane was seamless. Sharmane goes above and beyond to ensure that you are cared for as a client. She is organized, meticulous, and thoughtful (not only in her selling strategy but in how she engages her clients personally). Selling your home can be a whirlwind, but with Sharmane we felt grounded, confident, and excited throughout the entire journey. Sharmane is a great negotiator and truly advocates for your needs in a sale - we are confident that if we had used anyone else we wouldn't have received as amazing of an offer on our home. We would recommend Sharmane to anyone looking to sell or buy a property in the greater DC area! Tom Cosgrove2024-02-06 Sharmane helped me buy my first home in Arlington, VA. She came highly recommended by a friend. I very much appreciated her positive attitude, work ethic, and attention to detail. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable about the process and the northern Virginia market. I have two jobs, so I needed a little extra guidance through the purchasing process. Sharmane was there (and patient with me) through it all and had great recommendations for partners along the way. Even after I have closed on my home, she is still available to help and answer questions. This purchasing experience was more than just a transaction, Sharmane is a connection I look forward to having now and in the future!
