ZillowVERIFIEDDan recently handled the sale of my two bed/two bath loft condo in Manchester Lakes. He was the ultimate professional and gave sound advice on the current market and comps, realistic listing price, and how to best stage the property. Within a week of deciding to list, he had brochures ready and the property was active online. We held an Open House on the first day and received an offer over the asking price a few hours later, with two more offers, also over the asking price, the following day. He reviewed these carefully and provided guidance as to which was the strongest and, two days later, we were under contract. Closing went very smoothly, and the proceeds were deposited into my bank account within two business days. It was the fastest and most painless home sale I have experienced to date.In addition to assisting with the sale, Dan even passed by my old address after I left the area to pick and forward urgent mail to my new location. He truly went above and beyond, and I would recommend him without hesitation. He was a pleasure to work with, is very knowledgeable, and a professional from start to finish. Thank you, Dan, for all of your help!Avril A.

ZillowVERIFIED I found Dan to be professional, courteous, and always available to answer any questions in a timely manner. Dans 30+ years in real estate proved to be very beneficial in the sale of our two homes - got the full listing price on each one!! I would highly recommend Dan to sell your home!

ZillowVERIFIED For being the longest realtor in the Kingstowne neighborhood I found my experience with Dan to be mostly average. If you're selling in the local Kingstowne, I think it's best to go with someone who specializes in the neighborhood regardless. Dan was very quick to get back to me and schedule an initial chat when I first sold my condo. After I got back from a trip, I was able to commit to a listing with his service. We got pictures and my house set up with a slightly delayed actual listing. Dan was mostly responsive to my calls and texts. I don't expect a realtor to pick up every time that I call since they could be working with another client, but if I do leave a voicemail, I appreciate it being returned in a timely fashion. There were a couple of instances when my calls weren't followed up with.Showings went mostly smooth. In one instance, though, a realtor couldn't open the lock box and Dan had to be called. I was able to get home to try to open the door, but found that the buyer's realtor had picked the box open with a screwdriver, and then subsequently proceeded to chew me out because Dan had not called him back to confirm that he'd be on his way to try to open the lock box. This was pretty humiliating for me to go through as a seller to a potential buyer.After seven days on the market, we had the right buyer come through who made an offer after checking the house out. Dan called me with the news, but the buyer's offer was rather insulting to me ($10k under listing price with another $10k in concessions). I was floored that Dan recommended I go with this offer without first reviewing options for a counter-offer. It made me feel like he was in for a quick buck and not on my side whatsoever. Thankfully I have training in negotiation and was able to put a counter-offer together on my own, which the buyer accepted. If I had just gone with Dan's recommendation, I would have been out an extra $10k.

ZillowVERIFIED A seamless home purchase or sale can easily paint any ordinary realtor in a good light but, lets face it, those transactions are few and far between. It is more likely that a Seller or Purchaser will experience a few hiccups and hurdles along the way. This is why its so important to seek the services of a seasoned realtor. Dan Stone not only excels when a blip or obstacle surfaces.....he shines. He is both professional and insightful and, just as importantly, accessible and responsive. If that werent enough, Dan maintains access to a network of experienced and very reasonably priced contractors on the ready in the event of a last minute repair. This was especially helpful in our transaction as we were out-of-state Sellers and had little knowledge of local resources. He truly loves his profession as demonstrated in his investment in his business as well as his relentless commitment to the satisfaction of his clients. Neither of us knew Dan prior to this transaction, but we concluded the sale of our home considering Dan an unforgettable family friend. We have ZERO reservation in highly recommending Dan for all of your real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIED I have known Dan since 2004 when he helped sell my townhouse in Kingstowne and purchase a new one. So when it came time to sell/purchase again, I didn't hesitate to call him! At the time we were overseas due to my husbands job and were planning on selling our town house and buying a new one. When I reached out to Dan and explained what we were looking to do, our circumstances and timeline he took the bull by the horns and was a great help to us! He assisted in every possible way, understood our circumstances and did the extra leg work!!He sold our town house in no time and helped us into a new beautiful home that we absolutely adore!!Dan is extremely knowledgeable about the area, the market and has an amazing understanding of people! He has great contacts in the business to help through the process of selling/moving. Most of all, I appreciate his candor and sincerity. You don't find that too often anymore.Needless to say.......I would HIGHLY recommend Dan Stone!!!

ZillowVERIFIED Dan found us the perfect home on the first try. He patiently walked us through the process and made sure we were happy. I'd recommend him to anyone. We also relied on him to help us find a lender, and were very happy with his suggestion. Dan is old-school, knows everyone, and is kind and respectful to all.

ZillowVERIFIED In 1996 Dan Stone helped my husband and I buy our first home in Alexandria, VA. It was the perfect home for us, and we loved living there. In 2015, I decided to downsize and sell our townhouse, I contacted Dan, he helped me get my house ready to go on the market. On a Friday afternoon, he put a "Coming Soon" sign in my front yard and 5 hours later there was an offer to buy my house for the price we were asking. Dan has been a friend to our family since we met him in 1996, he is a such an awesome person, he has a wonderful personality and has always been so helpful and friendly. I highly recommend Dan to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a house!

ZillowVERIFIED Clearly Dan helped me find the home of my dreams. He got a feel for exactly what I wanted, my price range, and was very diligent at getting me to all of these options before it was too late. It is nice to have a personable Realtor who knows his way around the area when you are new to the location. I would definitely recommend Dan Stone for your next move!

ZillowVERIFIED We contacted Dan Stone on April 10 and he came to view our condominium on April 13 and was extremely helpful in suggesting a few upgrades that would enhance our property. We followed through with his suggestions, hired the contractor that he recommended and all upgrades were completed in a timely manner. We were very pleased with the outcome and our property was listed the following weekend. Dan's expertise and advice helped us secure a full price contract by April 26 with the first couple that came through the unit. As the buyers requested a quick settlement Dan arranged everything in order to close on May 20. Dan was always available to answer any questions or concerns, is extremely knowledgeable about market conditions and real estate values in a wide area of the Springfield/Franconia/Alexandria communities. His professionalism and honest assessments allowed all parties to complete the transaction with no hassle. We would highly recommend Dan to anyone looking to buy or sell properties in the Northern Virginia area.

ZillowVERIFIED Dan was an absolute pleasure to work with! From the minute we met him, we could tell that he enjoys his job, takes pride in what he does, and goes out of his way to facilitate the home-buying process for his clients. His VAST knowledge of not only the Kingstowne area, but Northern Virginia in general, was more than impressive. Last, but not least, he is patient and willing to go the extra mile until the perfect home is found for his clients. His experience and expertise shines through in all he does, and I would not hesitate to work with Dan again in the future!

ZillowVERIFIED I had first come in touch with Dan about 3 years ago when a friend of mine was in the process of his house hunting. I had been impressed with his knowledge and so when it came time for me to look for a realtor, he was the first one I called up.He was prompt and very responsive with the whole process. House buying is very unnerving and Dan's astute handling of it definitely inspired confidence.The condo I ended up buying was only one of the two I had shortlisted and Dan was very eager to drive the distance to meetup with me and make it happen. And boy was it timely! I partly think that I actually landed at this choice because of Dan's willingness to be accommodating and treat his responsibility serious.I can recommend Dan to anyone looking for a realtor in the DC metropolitian area.

ZillowVERIFIED I bought my first house with Dan and had a very tight budget with certain requirements for the school district. Dan was fast, efficient and found exactly what I needed! Me and my kids are in a great community that I never even knew existed. And would have never even looked at. This guy knows his stuff, is honest as the day is long and makes everything fun.

ZillowVERIFIED I have known and worked with Dan for 20 years, as I have moved in and out of the area with my career in the Navy.Dan is one of the most knowledgeable, trustworthy, and responsive Real Estate professionals I have ever worked with. I have much experience as a Navy Captain who has moved numerous times, and both bought and sold homes in other parts of the country.I would use Dan again, and I would recommend him to anyone else. I would make it clear that our ability to purchase our current dream home would not have happened without Dan's advice to us, and management of the transaction with the seller's Agent.Thanks, Dan!Sincerely,Bill Snyder

ZillowVERIFIED Dan was wonderful to work with! We live out of state and he arranged all the renovations to get our house ready for the market. He was very active with showings and gave us frequent updates. Not only was he an expert in selling our house, he was our property manager for three years. Again, we could always depend on him to take care of our home. Can't say enough good things about him!

ZillowVERIFIED Dan has worked with me for over 20 years, helping my buy and sell numerous properties. All of my properties have sold in less than a week, but his knowledge and professionalism really come into play on the purchasing and settlement side. He has a team of professionals that will work with you on everything from inspection, settlement, lending and even contractors after the sale is final! Dan and his team will take care of everything and make you feel that you are getting the best, most personalized service possible.

ZillowVERIFIED 24 April, 2014To whom it may concern,My wife and I would like to recommend Dan Stone as an excellent real estate broker. We began to work with him about a year ago. At that time, we were looking for a home in the Northern Virginia area. Dan listened well, was attentive to our needs and strived to understand our likes and dislikes. Unlike other brokers we had worked with, he didnt try to steer us to view homes that didnt fit the profile we discussed with him. We didnt feel rushed, nor were his opinions about each home we viewed anything less that 100% sincere. Some homes were just not aEUR~us and he respected our opinions and moved on accordingly. We found Dan to know the area intimately, to know the inventory available, to know the back story on properties which was very helpful, and he kept up with new inventory that came onto the market that might interest us. When we found the right home for our family, Dan helped us close the deal, negotiate favorable terms, and was there to assist us until we had the keys in our hand! In short, Dan is the model of real estate professionalism, hes a likeable and friendly person, easy to work with, and we wouldnt hesitate to use his services again in the future.Sincerely,George B. Goff Chief Master Sergeant, USAF (Ret)

ZillowVERIFIED Dan has been my Realtor since 2003 when he sold my townhouse. Just recently he negotiated the purchase of a new condo and sold my old condo in a record two days! He successfully negotiated the purchase of my new condo. All through the process he assisted me and got me through it. I highly recommend Dan Stone.

ZillowVERIFIED He was very knowledgeable about area and very professional. He showed us about 30 to 40 houses and townhouses and usually was available when we needed to look at a place. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy a house in VA. He has been living in Springfield area for over 20 years.

ZillowVERIFIED We were looking for a house that grabbed our attention. We came up with must haves for me and my wife but could not find anything close to our needs. We looked at many homes in a span of about 6 months and came up short of what we needed. Dan kept sending listings and never gave up on us. The house we bought was a listing we didn't want to look at because the pictures were not very appealing. Dan said it never hurts to look first hand at a property before making a decision to oust it. Good advise! We loved the house and 80% of what we were looking for was there. I would strongly recommend Dan to anyone looking to buy real estate.

ZillowVERIFIED Incredible. I signed my papers with Mr. Stone, and two days later he showed my condo and the couple who previewed my unit purchased it. Mr. Stone is an expert in the Alexandria/Kingstowne, VA real estate market. He has exceptional interpersonal skills and is beyond honest. He is very transparent and is very respectful to the listing individual as well as all contacts concerning the sale of property. He is the consummate professional.

ZillowVERIFIED This is the third time Dan Stone has been my agent-when we bought a home, when I sold that home and when I bought my present condo.This was over a period of 13 years.Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about local communities, but is fun and friendly to work with. He understood my needs, both financial and the type of place I could be happy living in. I enthusiastically recommend him as a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED Mr. Stone was referred to me from my aunt (also a real estate agent in SC). I had just returned to Virginia from a year long deployment to Afghanistan and needed to look for a home to purchase. This was my first time purchasing a home and because of this, Mr. Stone was very patient in explaining and guiding me throughout the entire process. He was always available and flexible with my schedule, especially with my transition back to the states. When initially shopping for homes he knew the exact things to look for, such as any on-the-spot issues and provided advice when it came to any negotiations (i.e. fixes, pricing, etc.). His expertise in the northern VA area helped me find the right home for me. He was even able to help close down my home with the VA loan at a faster rate than expected. I highly recommend to anyone Mr. Stone as your realtor, especially for any veteran planning to use a VA loan.
