real estate testimonials

Working with Deb made the whole experience of buying a new home simpler and as stress-free as it could possibly be. She worked tirelessly, always in my interest, and promptly addressed whatever questions or concerns I had. She was very professional and had in-depth knowledge and also gave great references for other services and people related to buying a new home. I couldn’t imagine anyone buying or selling a home without Deb!
Patricia Johnson, Arlington, Virginia

Why would anyone use anybody else? Deb made the process easy from start to finish.
Ken Klimpl, Burke, Virginia

Deb is someone of absolute patience. Deb found innovative ways of sharing her experiences regarding past clients needs that helped us shape our own ideals and ultimately find the property of our dreams! Most importantly - she has very good connections with the financial and "other side of the house" but ensures that her clients' interests are always at the top of her priorities.
Jon and Christine Krepsky, Manassas, Virginia

Words cannot express the gratitude and appreciation we have for you for selling my parent's home and overseeing all the “interesting components” of the sale.   You went above and beyond coordinating closure on the property while we were unavailable to deal with contractors.
Dr. Tammy Cashion and Dr. Paul Curcio , Clifton , Virginia

We just wanted to say thank you for everything. We know you spent long hours helping us find the perfect home and we did. Your undying energy and devotion to helping us find the perfect house and understand the process was more than we could have hoped. You really went above and beyond and we are very grateful. We consider you part of the family now.
Alicia and Bob Amico, Leesburg, Virginia

Deb, you could not have been better. Pam and I are so grateful that you handled our Alexandria real estate transaction considering the market at the time. We consider ourselves very lucky. Your attention to detail, positive attitude and professionalism were appreciated. We had total trust in your advice and knowledge. I would provide my highest recommendation to anyone, needing real estate services, to Deb. She works at her trade and is not only a great real estate professional, but a personal friend now.
Colonel Richard Owen, USMC (RET), New Bern, North Carolina

I just wanted to tell you what a pleasure it has been working with you over the past year. After twelve years in the title business, I have not worked with another realtor that does as much for his or her clients as you do. From open houses and creating websites for individual properties to consistent updates and staging the property for show, you define going the extra mile. What impresses me the most is the kudos that I hear at the settlement table from your clients on how well the process went from beginning to end. I think your genuine understanding of your clients needs and your ability to listen and respond quickly is what people look for in a real estate professional.
Joe Decker, Director of Marketing, Stonebridge Title, Fairfax, Virginia

Deb is a consummate professional but her calm and warm demeanor really made a difference for my brother and me in selling our deceased parents beloved home. She gave us expert advice on pricing and making the home look its best. This was a very emotional transaction for me, to sell my childhood home. Deb’s empathy and extra care made for a good transition. She will be my realtor for any future transactions.
Pamela Barron, Fairfax Station, Virginia

I have been in business for over thirty years working in the commercial and residential markets. You bring clarity of reality to the table. You have a great sense of understanding of the client, the buyers and the personnel you have to deal with in  this industry. Your honesty, hard work and creative approach in the marketplace are a key element to your success. I am thankful I found someone I can trust in today's climate. I will be working with you on my future projects, and will be referring you to my clients and friends.
Salvatore Alonge, Vienna, Virginia

Having worked with another agent previously, I was discouraged that I had not sold my property, but even more importantly, that I had not received a single offer. After my previous listing agreement expired, Deb went to work for me and aggressively began marketing the home. I received an offer in less than 5 weeks and closed 3 weeks afterward. Deb's thoroughness, professional courtesy, and attention to detail were first rate. She came highly recommended and it was evident all the way through the transaction. I sensed that Deb owned the property as if it were her own. I never wondered if she was doing enough and was always pleasantly surprised when she would tell me what else she was doing to market my place. Having worked with several real estate agents in the past, Deb is second to none.
James OBrien, Alexandria, Virginia

Your knowledge of the area and understanding of the market is top notch. Your professionalism, follow through, attention to detail, and demeanor has made this a very easy and pleasant experience for us. We truly feel like “you” were the reason our home sold in such a timely manner – well below the average days on market for our area. As an Army Officer and Combat Veteran, I have worked with some inspiring individuals. I know what selfless service dedication is all about. You are dedicated and you provide a superior service.
Erin and Bob May, Centreville, Virginia

I truly can say this was a pleasant experience.
I greatly appreciate
everything you did for us. You are by far one of the best I have ever known
and have had the privilege of working with. I have and would again recommend you to anyone for an agent to represent them in a real estate transaction.
Elizabeth and Mark Todd, Fairfax, Virginia

One of the things I admired most about Deb was her knowing when to provide information or comments and when to step back and let us decide. I know she had strong opinions about every property she showed us, but it was her ability to wait for us to broach a subject or ask a direct question before she gave those opinions. Overall, it was a thoroughly delightful experience. We LOVE our  home.
Michele and Gary Bowman, Chantilly, Virginia

A true eye for detail. Deb picks up nuances that are easily missed. Although I used her as a Buyer's Agent, her real strength is as a Sellers Agent. She would be the one I want in my corner!
Cathleen Tracy, Falls Church, Virginia

Deb was a pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable, answered all questions, provided more assistance than she was required to and seemed genuinely interested in helping us find the right home. Always professional and pleasant.
Michele Cappello, Haymarket, Virginia

Deb was instrumental in our relocation to Virginia. She was referred to us and she exceeded our expectations as a Realtor. What I appreciate the most about Deb is how important we were to her when we purchased our home and even now after the sales process. She is a Gem!
Denise and Chad Navarrete, Oak Hill, Virginia

The most competent, professional individual I have ever met. I enjoyed working with her and could always depend on her.
Barbara Murry, Reston, Virginia

Deb is the consummate professional
when it comes to understanding the local real estate market. She is also great at adding value to a property without breaking the bank. Her ability to target the specific needs of each client, and create custom solutions is simply amazing. Whether you're thinking of putting your home on the market or you're having trouble moving your property, I highly recommend contacting Deb.
Darrell Poe, Clifton, Virginia

Deb is committed
to helping clients find the perfect home! When you hire Deb you also get the best of both worlds as she's both a Realtor and a Home Stager. She'll make your home look it's best so you can get a premium price! Important in our real estate market!
Sara Schultz, Fairfax

Thanks Deb! We’re very happy in our new home.
Andy, Katie and Chris Lynch, Clifton, Virginia

Deb Gorham was an absolute pleasure! My next real estate endeavor will without a doubt be with Deb Gorham. Everyone should have an agent as good as Deb.
Stephanie and Troy Baxter, Herndon, Virginia

It was great working with you. In an industry full of phonies, I found you to be very genuine.
Mike, Chantilly, Virginia

It has been a pleasure working with you, Deb. Thank you for your prompt attention to all matters concerning this transaction. Thanks for going above and beyond.
Liz and Van Ernest, Clifton, Virginia

It was a pleasure working with you. Your knowledge and skills helped to smooth out potential wrinkles and made this transaction very harmonious.
David N. – Realtor, Fairfax, Virginia

If one is in the market to sell their home, especially in a slow buyer’s market, I highly recommend this individual to turn to a strategic marketer and certified home stager, Deb Gorham. It will be the best decision made with selling one’s home. Otherwise, one will risk his/her home sitting on the market and loosing significant amounts of money due to lack of strategic marketing and home staging expertise.

After 15 days, I had three buyers’ contracts presented to me! This is a testament of her excellent marketing and home staging skills!
Patricia Dunlap, Fairfax, Virginia

Thank you very much for all your help in selling our house. You put in a lot of work into Staging and held frequent Sunday Open Houses and a Tuesday Brokers Open. Our house sold while those of our neighbors sat on the market for months.
Drs. Keith Robertson and Seema Khan, McLean, Virginia

I recently sold my home in one day at the asking price.  I can honestly say that Deb's expertise was the reason why.
Jennifer Ponsart, Manassas, Virginia

We feel very fortunate to have had Deb as our guide through the tricky road of real estate.  Anyone smart enough to choose her will prosper.
Doug and Dawn Mauz, Sterling, Virginia

staging testimonials

"I recently listed a large beautiful home for sale and had the pleasure of introducing Deb Gorham to our Seller to assist with “Stagingâ the home for sale”. Often, the Sellers have too many things in their home and need to declutter. In our case, the Seller did not have over half of the home furnished. Deb worked with us and the Seller to coordinate a plan of renting some furniture to properly “show off” the fabulous features of this home. She also coordinated the installation of window treatments, accessories, live plants, and more to give us a “model home” look. Deb was very professional and considerate of the Seller’s feelings at all times. A true success - shortly after the Staging® was complete, the Seller received a contract from a Buyer. Staging® works, and I would definitely recommend Deb Gorham to any of my future clients or fellow agents!!”
Joan Lewis
- Realtor, Long and Foster
Reston, Virginia

We received four contracts the very first weekend - on a $2,000,000
vacant home! The only reason this home sold so quickly is because of Deb's expert staging strategies. She made the whole place look warm and inviting - and we had buyers scrambling to buy it. After seeing the power of staging firsthand, I continually recommend Deb's services to any of my clients who are selling a vacant home. Deb is a wonderful person to work with, highly professional but sweet and genuine, too. In this market, it will give sellers the edge they need for a quick sale!
Meg R., Realtor, Arlington, Virginia

Deb, thank you! Your help made all the difference.
Barbara S.- Realtor, Fairfax Station

Working with Deb on staging my condominium in Dupont Circle has been a real pleasure. Deb brought her extensive professional experience to bear in assessing my property and visualizing the true potential of the space.
With a great sense of design and detail, she maximized its attractiveness, targeting the urban customer that I'm looking for. As I put my condo on the market, I know that Deb made a real difference in improving its appearance and making it a real showcase. Thanks Deb!
Dr. Eric F. - Washington, D.C.

Deb's staging of my condo unit was the most cost-effective service that I used to sell my property.
  She collaborated well with me as a leader with expert staging techniques.  Two weeks prior to Deb's staging, I had no offers.  The day after she staged my unit, I was offered the asking price! 

In the lull of the summer, from my initial contact with Deb to her de-staging of my condo unit, she was the consummate professional. Her flair for design, staging props and strategies put money in my bank -- all for a very reasonable price!
Dr. Lauren J., Washington, D.C.

"Working with Deb on staging my listing was an extremely positive experience. She was a consummate professional in every aspect of the process. The property I had listed was a sparsely furnished 9,000 square foot home with wonderful decorating potential. Our pricing was in the upper brackets. Deb brought a keen eye for design, attention to detail and a flair for visualization. As a result, the house went under contract in a matter of days and we received our asking price. I am convinced that staging this home made the difference."
Kim M. - Realtor
Alexandria,
Virginia

"Deb carefully staged every room in the house and "neutralized" the interior so that it evolved into a visual showpiece. The sale of the home was quick and easy! The Homeowners and I were very impressed and grateful for Deb's support. It has been my pleasure to work with Deb and I hope you will have the fortune to call upon her to represent you in all of your transactions."
Vicki S.
- Realtor
Reston, Virginia


"Thank you for staging one of our most recent listings. You did an outstanding job. We are convinced that because of your services our listing sold quickly, and for top dollar! The property had been previously listed with another agent for over six months. After you staged the property for the sellers, we raised the price and the home sold in just two days."
Barbara L.
- Realtor
McLean, Virginia


"Thanks again for the great job you did staging my home. I'm positive it helped get me top $$$ for it."
Ron U.
Oak Hill

Deb, thanks for your assistance in Staging advice for both listings. They went under contract in 15 and 28 days. We received good offers.
Nancy H.- Realtor, Springfield, Virginia

Deb's Staging job was great! She is very professional and has subtle ideas that make a difference. I learned some new ideas and her Staging gave me confidence in the sale of this home.
Barbara S.- Realtor, Haymarket, Virginia

Deb, thanks for your very professional Home Staging services. My clients have all found your advice very helpful.
Rob H.-Realtor, Woodbridge, Virginia
