Thinking about selling your home?

The first thing Pat said when we toured the property that I wanted to sell was that we needed to do a staging. In the prior 6 months before meeting Pat, my previous agent had never suggested that to me. On the 48th day of relisting the property with Pat, we got an offer from a couple who were initially unimpressed with the vacant “unstaged” property prior to Pat’s involvement but obviously changed their minds on their second visit. Pat has a well-known brand name in and around that neighborhood and it took us a while to figure out that simply picking an upstart company’s lower commission fees and heavy reliance on hi-tech web tools and marketing gimmick was not going to cut it. Pat is a traditionalist at heart. Pat and her team produced a beautiful brochure that highlighted the positives of the property. She retained a staging company that was affordable and that transformed the inside of the house. Pat invited other agents for a sandwich at the property. The fact that Pat’s ultimate saleswomen approach could reverse a buyer’s impression is a testament to both her vast experience and supreme confidence.

I primarily dealt with Pat Stack and Sue Cerbie during my $1.7 million home sale in 2015 and was thoroughly delighted. After having used and fired a prominent firm prior to Pat Stack our family was on edge. Selling one's home can be tough and I cannot say enough about the calm and professional manner of these ladies. They were extremely hard working, punctual, intelligent, vigilant and at the same time, gentle with me especially as I was exhausted having 6 months on the market already under my belt. They made the process seamless. I would use them again and again.

We’ve had the privilege of working with Pat Stack on both sides of a real estate transaction – the sale of our home in Oakton, and the subsequent purchase of a home in Loudoun County’s horse country. In both instances, Pat’s expertise in understanding the local real estate market, coupled with her professionalism as a real estate agent, led to very satisfying outcomes for our family. Her tireless effort in marketing our home to prospective buyers was exceptional, and led to multiple offers in an otherwise soft real estate market. Of course, her efforts did not end with the sale of our home, as she and her team were instrumental to our success in finding our current residence in Loudoun County. With both transactions, Pat’s negotiating skills allowed for not only quick resolution of contract terms, but also for smooth and uneventful closings. We could not have experienced a more knowledgeable, dedicated, and results oriented real estate agent with whom to place our trust, than Pat Stack. In what is likely one of the most important financial transactions families ever face, it is comforting to know that you are represented by the best, and someone who will place your interests and needs first. To put it bluntly, lawyers do make great real estate agents, as so ably exemplified by Pat Stack.
