Client Testimonials
★★★★★
"My husband and I couldn't recommend Steve more highly. Steve assisted us 5 years ago with the purchase of a townhouse in Arlington. That experience was so positive that we stayed in touch over the years and when we were ready to move again, we knew without question that we wanted Steve to work with us on both the sale of our townhouse and the purchase of our new house. Steve and his team are truly fantastic -- very knowledgeable about the area and the market, responsive, and great about educating us, full of fantastic recommendations of vendors to use), and just really pleasant people to be around during what can be a stressful situation! Unbelievably, with Steve's marketing and good advice, our townhouse was under contract in one day and we never even had to have an open house. We ideally wanted to close on the sale of our townhouse as quickly as possible because we already had a date for the closing on the purchase of our new house. Everything went off without a hitch with both closings taking place on the same day, within 3 weeks of having a ratified contract. We would recommend Steve and his team to anyone. Great service; great people."

"Steve Wydler and his team are simply the best at what they do. My husband and I have worked with them in buying and selling our home. During the home-buying process, Steve was patient, attentive to our requests, kind, and detailed in letting us know the positives and negatives in each home we considered. When we were ready to sell our home, he was meticulous and determined to get us the best deal in this economy. Thanks to Steve and his team’s hard work, efforts, and great advice, we got an offer on the house in less than one week. Bottom line: if you want to find your dream home, the person to contact is Steve Wydler; if you want to sell your home fast and for the best possible price, the person to contact is Steve Wydler."

"We worked with Steve on the purchase of a new home in McLean, and the sale of our existing McLean house. Steve and his team did a terrific job of helping us get our existing home ready to sell, and it sold before the open house. He and his team helped us evaluate the homes on the market, handled all of the negotiations, and we ended up with the house we wanted. Steve did a great job explaining the process and leading us through the various steps. It ended up being much easier than expected. He has a great team of professionals, as well as extensive knowledge of local resources. Highly recommended!"
