Testimonials

Jennifer is the consummate real estate agent and client advocate. In our initial conversation, she arrived thoroughly prepared and provided comp numbers and a clear set of steps to a successful sale. Her depth of knowledge of the market in Old Town Alexandria was the basis for an aggressive asking price. She laid out the path to a successful sale with a clear strategic approach, recommendations about what changes to the house would make a difference, how the house should be staged, and when to get the house on the market. During the preparation of the house, she also provided several resources for moving, painting, tiling, etc, which helped streamline the needed work. Laying this groundwork was key to signing a contract after only two days on the market and with a bid over the asking price. Selling a house can be stressful and challenging; working with Jennifer was not only easy, it was a great experience. She communicated clearly and often. Jennifer is an exceptional professional and delivers both the sale and a great experience at the same time.

When deciding to move our family from Alexandria to Great Falls, we weren’t sure how to find the right agent that could help get us the best price for our current home in Alexandria City and would be knowledgeable to help educate us on the Great Falls market. We saw Jennifer’s listings online and noted a tremendous amount of activity in both areas. We chose to “cold call” her and from that point forward she delivered on every possible expectation. Jennifer made an incredibly complicated series of transactions smoother than we ever would have hoped, and in about half the time that we were expecting.

We will be recommending Jennifer to friends and family for years to come.

Jennifer provided excellent customer service for the purchase of our first home, its subsequent sale years later, as well as the purchase of our current home. She is an excellent listener and answered all of our questions regarding renovations to prepare a home for listing, sales price strategy, and navigating the contract and closing process. It is clear she has a good reputation with other agents and vendors, and that she knows our the local real estate market very well. We have recommended her to our friends.

We were first time home buyers looking in the Northern VA area (Alexandria, Falls Church, Vienna, Annandale, Springfield). We immediately went with Jennifer after interviewing her and she exceeded our expectations. The home buying process for us went very quickly, but we never felt rushed or pressured by her to pull the trigger on any property. She was extremely helpful in pointing things out to us when narrowing our search. We were able to narrow our search quickly and eliminate properties we were initially very interested in before wasting precious time with a walkthrough due to dealbreakers that were obvious to her but not so obvious to us until pointed out. This was also extremely helpful in walkthroughs where she pointed out major issues that we wouldn’t have noticed, preventing us from making a choice that we would have certainly regretted. It made us ultimately super confident to eagerly put down an offer when we did find the home that we did fall in love with. She was also very helpful throughout the closing process in taking care of all of the details without any burden on us. Everything went off without a hitch and immediately, well before any deadlines in our contracts. She put us in touch with a particular inspector that she recommends for 1st time home buyers. This aspect was extremely helpful! He walked us through every part of a very thorough inspection in which we learned a TON about our future house (basically a short course on home care that we desperately needed). Based on a lot of our friends who have been through the house buying process in this area and have had less than stellar experiences with their realtors, we know how important having a great realtor is to the house buying process. We couldn’t recommend Jennifer more! We look back and realize how freaking easy and stress-free our house-buying experience was when all we have heard from others is how awful the process is. We look forward to working with her in the future!

Jennifer was a delight to work with: knowledgeable, patient, always available, and very helpful in navigating me through the process of selling my condo. I highly recommend her.

Jennifer was wonderful to work with as a first-time home buyer - incredibly responsive, very knowledgeable of the local market conditions, and ultimately helped us buy our dream home!

I worked with Jennifer to buy and sell my condo in Alexandria. She is very knowledgeable about the area. In the 5 years that I owned the property, she was always available to provide recommendations, answer questions, and discuss options for selling or renting when I moved. I was out of state when she sold my property and she handled all of the details including repairs, paint, and staging. Jennifer has great pricing strategies and my unit sold over the asking price in one day. I enjoyed my experience working with Jennifer and would highly recommend her to any buyer or seller.

We just closed on our home a few weeks ago and wanted to share our exceptional experience in working with Jennifer Halm and her team!! We had a productive and informative initial meeting with Jennifer where we were trying to decide on our listing agent. We had done some research and met with another agent but couldn't agree on a strategy/approach. Our home was a little unique - Jennifer knew the neighborhood/comps well so was prepared to have a thoughtful discussion. She was helpful in identifying reliable and responsive trades to help get our home ready for listing. As with any home sale - it's a busy time and Jennifer and her team did a fantastic job of keeping us moving and on track for a successful sale. We had a great experience and would recommend working with Jennifer.
