Testimonials

The Smolkos helped us with our search for a vacation house. They were very patient throughout the process. Although we looked for a long time and saw many properties we never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. In the end we found a place that suited our purposes perfectly and were masterfully guided through the negotiations up to and through the closing.

Gabrielle Pentalow (Shaheen, Ruth, Martin & Fonville Real Estate Company) is the best! She was extremely honest, upfront, and was able to find me a great home that fit right in my price range! She is very knowledgeable, accessible, and communicates clearly, making the home buying process extremely easy! From the first time I reached out to her, she answered immediately and from there on out she was very responsive. During negotiations, I always felt like Gabrielle had my best interest in mind. In closing, she is very easy to work, a savvy negotiator, and therefore I highly recommend her for your real estate needs!

KeShawn for Gabrielle Pentalow

Working with Ashley was very pleasant. At the time inventory was tight, but she kept her eye on listing and potential matches for me. She proved invaluable in the offer/negotiation process due to the depth of her knowledge of the market, what sellers wanted and what buyers needed to do to nail down the deal. I would highly recommend Ashley, and wouldn’t think of using another Realtor in the future.

Kerry Kreis

Abby was very familiar with the market and well versed in negotiations. She was always responsive with assistance and recommendations. Wonderful follow-up on all aspects of the purchase/sale and closing process. She sold our home and was our agent to purchase another.

Sherry sold our last home 8 years ago and my husband's mother's home. She has such a good way of making people feel they can trust her. She is very knowledgeable, good at follow-up and resolves problems quickly. She also worked with us on the offer leading to getting a very sought-after home.

Outstanding Agent

Monica was very knowledgeable about the market, current real estate news and she knew what we were looking for. Monica is well connected in the community, and she knew exactly who to reach for the information we needed. Monica definately knows the different areas of Richmond, and she was able to help us fine tune our housing search since we are not from this area. Monica's attention to detail was very important to us. As in our housing search, she led us through all the steps in the purchase of the house and all the steps in the completion. We had a lot going on (my mom passed away), but we knew Monica was taking care of all the details, which was a big relief for both of us. Monica was always very positive and optimistic. Trying to buy in a sellers market is not easy especially in an unfamiliar area, and Monica's optimism made the whole process very pleasant and hopeful. Also, once we found the house we wanted, Monica's tenacity to make it happen made it possible to get our house. Also, she made it possible for us to have a home inspector for a showing on a busy weekend. Monica is an outstanding real estate agent! We were so lucky to be able to have her help on our house journey.

Terri was a great worker, and very enthusiastically marketed our home. She helped me stage the house and gave me great pointers on how to best present the house to potential buyers. Terri held an open house the enticed the very first visitor to purchase our home. It took a month but Terri was persistent and never gave up. The marketing material including sales brochures, social media features, and mailers were professionally produced. Terri was ready and available throughout the entire sales process to answer questions and help me in every way. Extremely available and responsive! I highly recommend Terri to everyone I know who may be selling their home. She does a phenomenal job!
