Full Service Real Estate in Northern Virginia

Dear Marjorie,

Ute and I returned from a fabulous vacation in Austria and are now refreshed and ready to move on to the next phase of our lives. I wanted to thank you for the fine professional job that you did in representing us and my aunt in the sale of her house. Ute and I knew that eventually the time would come when we would have to put her home on the market. Quite frankly, we had many sleepless nights wondering how we would accomplish this living in Wisconsin and the house located in Alexandria. Thank goodness you came into our lives and helped us with this process.

I think that I mentioned to you that at first we thought of selling the house ourselves. One of the neighbors had indicated an interest in purchasing the house. I had it appraised an was almost ready to proceed. Then I talked to you. you toured the house and advised me that the appraisal was too low for the neighborhood. One of the best business decisions that I have ever made was to list the house with you.

Not only were you able to sell the house in less than two weeks for the asking price, you also put me in touch with JoAnn Pasca. Joann was most helpful in arranging for a sale of household items and cleaning out the property.

I appreciate all that you did to make this sale go so smoothly. I was worried that I would have to return to Alexandria for the closing, however you were able to make all of the arrangements in such a manner that I did not need to return.

Thanks again for your help and counsel. You are a great professional and I enjoyed working with you. I would highly recommend you and Partners In Real estate to anyone who is considering selling property in the Alexandria, VA area.

To Whom It May Concern,

This is an entirely unsolicited letter. Mr. Robert Burroughs served as the listing agent for two residential properties my wife and I sold in the fall of 2006, and in August 2007. In the process of guiding us through these sales, Robert provided extraordinary service and results in two very different markets. These two properties were the 7th and 8th homes we’ve sold, working with 5 different Real Estate agents in 4 states. These prior home sales have provided a reasonably broad base of experience lending credibility to our opinion that Robert accomplished the marketing and sale of our Washington-area homes in a superbly professional and extraordinarily effective manner.

In the sale of one home during the fall of 2006, Mr. Burroughs’ recommendations regarding maintenance and upgrades, combined with his expertise in pricing and marketing resulted in a quick turnaround sale (8 days) at top-of-the-market prices, in market conditions that favored the seller. In August 2007 we sold our principal residence during very different market conditions, which favored the buyer. Robert’s aggressive marketing and willingness to patiently and knowledgeably negotiate issues as they arose with a first-time home buyer brought success in a significantly different, and tougher, sales market.

In over 30 years of real estate ownership and marketing Robert is the finest real estate agent I’ve had the opportunity to work with. In the sale of two homes, during two very different market conditions, he has proven to be knowledgeable, highly principled, flexible, creative, and willing to do what’s required to get the job done. This professional listens carefully, works hard, and delivers results.

He has earned my full trust and confidence. I am confident your decision to engage him will bring the same results.

Sincerely,
Jack H. Mechanic

Dear David and Marjorie,

We thank you for the outstanding professional job that you did pricing, timing and marketing the sale of our Villamay home. Your guidance and expertise resulted in a quick sale above the asking price - just 4 days from start to finish.

Your efforts, however, did not end with a contract for sale. You went above and beyond by helping us obtain a rent-back agreement from the new owner which allowed us to remain in the house until the construction of our new home was completed. Moving once is rare when one builds a new home. You made it happen for us.

We appreciate everything that you did to make the sale of our Villamay home and our subsequent move seamless and nearly stress free. You exceeded our expectations in the every way.

We highly recommend you and partners in Real Estate to anyone who is looking to sell or buy in the metro area. Please add us to your list of very satisfied clients.

You are the best!

Sincerely,

Sean & Laureen Rogers
