This is the second time we have trusted Kristie with the all-important job of finding a home for our family, and it’s the second time she’s proven herself to be more than worthy of that trust. I cannot overstate how important a home is to me. It is not just a house or an apartment. It is the place, wherever it may be, where my family feels safe, secure, and together. It is where my children take their first steps, speak their first words, even tell their first jokes. It is where my wife and I share our lives, dreams, burdens, joys and sorrows together. It is where everything feels right with the world even when it’s not. Entrusting someone with the task of finding that space requires an enormous amount of faith. After our first experience with Kristie there was no question in our mind that we would be turning to her once again. We didn’t even have to discuss it or look at other options. She had found us our home, the first place that had truly felt like home for us. The incredible thing is that the house that became our home was not in any of the areas we were originally looking at, and it was very different from the sorts of places we were looking at. Yet after showing us what we wanted to see Kristie zeroed in on what we actually wanted but hadn’t actually thought about. We humored her, walked around the house and it was just an instant click. We’ve been extraordinarily happy here ever since. Our memories here alone are more than reason enough to recommend her. Now that it’s time to upgrade, she once again knew exactly what we were looking for and made sure we got it. More than that, Kristie and the amazing team she works with carried us through the transaction with an absolute minimum of hassle. As always, Kristie communicated with us thoroughly, effectively and promptly. She was usually available to speak when we called and when not would call us back quite very quickly, a trait I value highly in any profession. In every conceivable way, she showed us, as her clients, not only the high quality representation we knew she would provide but also a level of care and attentiveness that went above and beyond our highest expectations. When you add into the mix an exemplary team supporting Kristie on a moment’s notice, plus Kristie’s wide array of contacts in every conceivable field remotely related to the purchase or sale of real estate, and you have a winning formula. For ourselves, we had another seamless transaction and look forward to many more happy memories in our new home. To Kristie and everyone, absolutely everyone else who has helped lead us to this point: Thank you.

I was in the market for a one bedroom condo in the Northern Virginia region. Although the properties I was looking at were on the lower end of the market, as far as total cost, Kristie and her team always treated me as if I were purchasing a seven bedroom mansion. She dedicated her time and effort to finding me a property I am 100% happy with. Kristie was always very responsive to my calls and texts in addition to being right on time for every showing. She has a very low pressure, calming way of operating, which I greatly appreciate over a pushy salesman type of realtor. I would recommend Kristie and her team to anyone and everyone!

Kristie and her entire team were outstanding from start to finish. Pros: 1) Responsive. We were never waiting for much time at all before hearing back from her on every aspect of the process. 2) Patient. We never felt pressured at any time and, in fact, it was more so the opposite. Kristie went with whatever we wanted, though she would provide her honest and helpful opinion when asked. 3) Knowledgable. She had useful insights on every aspect of home buying, including getting a loan, understanding the differences between types of loans, key elements of a strong offer, cost of upgrades or renovations, etc. 4) Accessible. Kristie adapted to our schedules, and we never felt like she was not available when we needed her to go tour homes, do the home inspection, final walk through, and settlement. 5) Tough. She was always super nice to us, but was a tough negotiator when we needed her to be. She fought for our interests all the way through the settlement day. Cons: 1) None. Bottom line: You simply won’t go wrong with choosing Kristie as your realtor.

Lisa was a fantastic agent who went the extra mile to ensure we received the best offer when selling our house. She engaged with us and kept us in the loop throughout the entire sales process and her attention to detail ensured that everything needed for a smooth sale was achieved. Great experience, highly recommend!

-Jason

I was very impressed with Kristie’s preparation, professionalism, knowledge, and friendliness when she came to interview for my house listing via a relocation firm’s recommendation. Her experience helped me tremendously in listing and selling my house. It took less than 3 weeks to secure a contract with the listing price and there were multiple buyers. And, this is during the Thanksgiving time frame! She is a gem to say the least. She goes out of her way helping me to make the house looks the best. Kristie makes everything look so easy because she did a lot of work behind the sense. I can’t thank her enough for her super professional service. Simply put, she is the BEST. Thank you so much Kristie, and Lisa.

-Amy

Highly recommend Kristie to anyone looking to buy in the DC area. She knows the business well and provided excellent insight and advice while we were looking for a home. She went above and beyond to assist us leading up to the closing process and continued to provide assistance after we closed. Five star service!

Kristie Zimmerman of RLAH is absolutely the best realtor!! She is very professional, passionate, true, trustworthy, beautiful in every aspect you can imagine. She took the time to understand my needs, expectations and wants in a house. Even though at times I know that I can be a little picky and difficult considering the price range with crazy listing prices , she was very patient with me and never rushed me. She was very genuine, sincere and honest with me about the all the different areas we looked at. She went above and beyond in every way possible to help me find my dream house! She was me looking for my house and even better. She made the entire process of finding/buying a house very simple and enjoyable for me. Additionally she was my advocate my representative all time. And she has helped me with referrals for things I want to do to my house in the future. It is very reassuring to know that if I have any questions or concerns that she is always there to help. I highly recommend Kristie to anyone looking for a house to buy or rent!!!

Working with Lisa has been AMAZING throughout this whole process of selling, buying/building and renting! She’s been right by our side every step of the way and even got us a full price contract in only one week! Her impressive knowledge of the market in our area combined with the stellar marketing materials set us up for immediate success. While selling our home, she worked in parallel to negotiate a contract to build our dream home PLUS went above and beyond to find us a short term rental until that new home is being built. I can’t speak highly enough about her professionalism and genuine desire to exceed the expectations of her clients. Choosing a realtor is a major decision, and we will forever be thankful that we chose Lisa Anders.

-Ray & Shannon

Lisa was absolutely amazing when we worked with her on the purchase of our new home in Haymarket, VA. The sellers were not the easiest people to work with but Lisa navigated the entire process with professionalism and always advocated for us as her clients. She was responsive, professional, understanding, and made every move and recommendation in our best interest. I recommend her without hesitation or reservation!

-Lindsey & Andy

When it became time for my Wife and I to consider the purchase of a new home, I knew that I wanted someone who was ardent about details. Lisa is that person. Lisa demonstrates careful command and control through the entire transaction.  It is Lisa’s superb emotional intelligence and expertise that will thwart your anxiety stemming from one of the biggest purchases of your life. I will choose Lisa to support me in the pursuit of my next home and you should too.

-Joseph & Christina

We worked with Lisa Anders on the sale of our condo in Sterling, VA and on the purchase of our home in Leesburg, VA. She is top notch in communication and negotiation. She was always available to us at any time of day or night. We highly recommend her and would use her again for our next home!

-Chris & Amanda

Kristie was absolutely fantastic. What started out as a request for a move in ready home, turned into a new construction. When looking for a home, she took everything on my list to make sure that we looked at homes that had my “must-haves”. She was very knowledgeable and was able to guide us  throughout the entire process. She knew all of the systems located in the homes and knew exactly what questions to ask the seller. Once we decided we wanted to build, she switched hats immediately and became our partner in crime with getting what we needed in our dream home! She was able to negotiate for us to get us everything we needed and was the expert at our meetings with our builder and construction team. We never had to feel like we were pressured and she made sure she spoke up when we were unsure of something. She is an amazing person and was very professional the entire time. Thanks to Kristie, my family and I are now living in our dream home and can’t wait to make memories!!
