What Transferring Home Buyers Are Saying

Dan was recommended to us through a friend of the family and he absolutely lived up to his reputation. We were living in California and had no idea of what the area was like but it was our 5th house purchase so we definitely knew what we liked in an agent. After several conversations with Dan over the phone a plan was in place for our arrival and how we were going to go about our house search. Throughout the buying process Dan always kept our interest in mind and never tried to steer us in a direction we didn’t want to go. We liked how he was always prompt, informative and went above and beyond to make the process smooth.

When we chose to build a new home Dan didn’t stop servicing in the down time while the house was being built. He was always willing to help with meetings, inspections, etc. to make sure that our interests were protected. In addition we particularly appreciated the references for other items outside of the actual house search such as painters, handymen for after the build, lawn services, etc. I would say the our experience with Dan was one of the top buying experiences that my wife and I have had over the years and best of all Dan is still there to answer calls and just be a friend.

During my corporate career with IBM and other major firms, I relocated 16 times. During these relocations, I gained a keen understanding, and in many cases, a dislike for the real estate industry.

Dan Thiewes re-established my faith in your business once again. His dedication, awareness of market and property values, representation and support, all came together to make our purchase and closing experience a positive one. Dan is the best realtor we have engaged, and should be rewarded for his “Excellence in Service.”

Robert and Maureen Pascale

This was the most enjoyable home-buying experience we’ve ever had. Absolutely stress-free! We really liked the use of the Web to winnow choices before seeing properties, and immediate return of phone calls to answer questions. You are the best Realtor we’ve ever dealt with and we intend to recommend you without reservation to anyone moving here.

Your calm, thorough , and humorous approach gave us a measure of confidence that made the decision that much easier. We also appreciated your continued efforts in assisting us with the entire purchasing and relocation process.

John Bocchino and Shelly Dunn

Thank you for spending the time with me finding the best house for the money in the area! We covered some serious ground in a few short days. I liked that you were not pushy, assessing my needs early on, and knowing the market very well. You made contract negotiation comfortable for me, you were professional at all times. You take pride in your work and it really shows. You put your customers needs above all else.

Fred and Ginger Henney

We liked your positive yet discerning professional attitude. Your approach to client service and cooperative personal demeanor meant a lot to us.

Charles and Millie Frymire

A most sincere thank you for the time you spent with us over the weekend. The area tour and sampling of houses was truly enlightening, and both Jim and I were delighted to learn more about Virginia. We enjoyed working with you.

Jim and Susie Riley

We felt you personalized the process to our needs. You had a good grasp on what we wanted, and the extra info on the area, things to do with the kids, etc. was very helpful. We felt you were our advocate in this moving process. You were very patient with all our decisions as well as helpful in zeroing in on them. When we decided to go with new construction you were as knowledgeable and helpful there. Thank you for easing some of the stress of the move.

Don and Renee’ Blankenship

There are many things you have done that we appreciate then, and even more so now. Particularly, when we were frustrated with the builder and were ready to give up. We found you to be extremely knowledgeable, very organized, efficient, professional and a wonderful communicator. You were available all the time, a great listener, understood our needs and always put our interests first. You have done an excellent job to ensure that everything was done to our satisfaction.

Bob and Hui Griffiths

You were very patient and accommodating. The search was frustrating me but you were very encouraging, and of course right. We liked your availability to us, having your home phone, cell phone, etc. Your attention to the new listings, which of course found us this home. We love the house, neighbors are great and the location is excellent! Stop and see us sometime.
