ZillowVERIFIEDI cant express the amount of gratitude we have for Kathleens kindness and expertise while selling our home. She was present and responsive through each step and helped us alleviate stress throughout the process. We will miss working with her!

Review for Member: Kathleen Hayden
ZillowVERIFIED Buying a home at this stage of life is both exciting and a little overwhelming but working with Kathleen made the entire process feel surprisingly easy. From the very beginning, she took the time to really understand what we needed and wanted - not just the number of bedrooms or the size of the kitchen, but the lifestyle we were looking for as we moved into the Fawn Lake community. She was incredibly patient with us, never rushed us, and always made sure we had all the information we needed to make confident decisions. When we had questions (and we had a lot!), Kathleen responded quickly, clearly, and with such kindness. She knows Fawn Lake inside and out, and her insights about the neighborhood, amenities, and even the little details you dont think to ask were invaluable. What impressed us most was how she advocated for us throughout the entire buying process. She handled every step professionally from the offer to the inspection to the final walkthrough, and made sure we felt supported the whole way. It truly felt like she cared about finding the right home for us, not just making a sale. Thanks to her, were now settled in a home we absolutely love, in a community that already feels like the perfect fit. I cant recommend her highly enough to anyone looking in Fawn Lake or the surrounding area. Shes a rare combination of knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely warm which is exactly what you hope for in a real estate agent.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleens expert experience in Real Estate was evident throughout the entire process of buying our home. My family felt very comfortable with Kathleens warm personality and we knew right away we could completely trust this major investment with her. Although we lived hundreds of miles away in NJ , Kathleen kept us up to date with every aspect of the process and in touch with everyone involved. We searched and visited many houses and Kathleen assisted us with all the questions or concerns we had on each property. We finally closed on our beautiful home in Spotsylvania. I highly recommend Kathleen Hayden for any of you Real Estate needs. Thank you Kathleen.

Review for Member: Kathleen Hayden
ZillowVERIFIED In a challenging real estate market, I discovered Kathleen Hayden at Fawn Lake community, Spotsylvania, VA. Despite my search for a new home and selling my own quickly, Kathleen stood out with her warm, engaging personality and extensive knowledge of properties in the area. Kathleen not only shared new listings and valuable insights but also demonstrated expertise in home construction, offering valuable input on features and potential concerns. Her recommendations expanded my options and led me to consider properties I hadn't thought of before. Beyond property suggestions, Kathleen excelled in managing contract negotiations, coordinating various aspects of the buying process, and ensuring a smooth settlement. Her dedication and attention to detail made the entire experience seamless and efficient. With incredible patience and respect, Kathleen made ""down sizing" fun! I wholeheartedly trust Kathleen for future real estate transactions and gladly recommend her to others. Kathleen Hayden is a standout agent who truly understands buyers' needs and ensures a satisfying experience from beginning to end.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen served as our listing agent for the sale of my father-in-laws home. She was exceptional and wonderful to work with throughout the process. Her efforts resulted in a quick sale of the home at the best price. Kathleen prepared a market analysis, coordinated inspections and repairs, held open houses and actively marketed the home, reviewed several offers with us, negotiated the contract, and navigated the settlement process with attentiveness and professionalism. We do not have enough superlatives to describe her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent with knowledge, expertise, professionalism, and integrity.

ZillowVERIFIED We originally chose Kathleen Hayden to be our listing agent due to her esteemed reputation and proven track record in our neighborhood. But we quickly realized she had so many more qualities wed benefit from during the process of selling our home, including two that really stood out: communication and hands-on service. When we originally sat down to discuss listing our home, Kathleen provided us with in depth price analysis and marketing strategy. She answered our phone calls, texts, and emails in a timely manner. While the listing was active, Kathleen kept us updated with buyer feedback, any change in market conditions, and promotional updates. And finally, upon receiving feedback that multiple offers would be forthcoming, Kathleen, with her calm and cheerful demeanor, helped us navigate those situations to choose the perfect buyer for our home. Her hands-on service included assisting us with getting our home listing ready, giving advice for downsizing, and hosting open houses with special touches for prospective buyers. Kathleen made us feel special and part of a team and we feel fortunate to having chosen her to represent us on the sale of our home for the past twenty three years.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen Hayden has demonstrated to us that she is the most intelligent, thoughtful, connected and hardworking real estate agent in Virginia. She responded immediately and effectively to each need and request we, as sellers, had and to the buyers requests as well. We are greatly appreciative but didnt know beforehand that Kathleen would lend a helping hand in house cleaning, lifting objects and contacting contractors to move along the sale of our house in a timely fashion. Lucky are future house sellers and buyers who engage Kathleen Haydens services under the Long and Foster Realtor umbrella.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was an outstanding agent. She helped me market, price and sell my luxury property which had a very niche and small target audience. Even still she managed to close a deal in a very short period of time. I highly recommend Kathleen.

Review for Member: Kathleen Hayden
ZillowVERIFIED We interviewed several realtors before deciding to work with Kathleen. Her preparation for our initial meeting was extremely helpful and made our decision easy. Her knowledge of the market coupled with the ability to understand our priorities made the entire selling process easy. But beyond the basics like setting the sales price or prepping the house, Kathleen just went over and above on the little things that make a difference. Our home was under contract in one day and closed in 30 days. While no realtor can guarantee a buyer that quickly as market conditions evolve, we are confident that we would not have had such a successful sale had we not had Kathleens expertise on our side.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was great! She is honest, responsive, fair priced and professional. She guided us step by step through prepping, listing and closing on our house which we had lived in for 15 years. I especially appreciated her weekly updates which summarized online and in person activity on our house, our neighborhood and in the local region. This helped us keep up with a rapidly changing market environment. Noting the change, she helped us take the necessary marketing steps to keep interest high and get a great contract. Notably, she didn?t do it all alone, she has surrounded herself with an outstanding team of industry professionals to include handyman services, painters, a house stager, as well as a settlement services provider and Title company. Just like her, all honest, responsive, fair priced and professional. If you are in the market, I absolutely recommend Kathllen!

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen rocked it! She took our input and factored in her extensive knowledge of the area market and led us to property after property that fit within our budget and style. There were very few property visits that would be considered a wasted trip and those that we didnt like, she quickly adapted and adjusted her search parameters. She was always timely, made herself available in person and on the phone, and was quick with advice, whether positive or negative, to ensure our experience was a good one. Kathleen is a great Agent to have for company relocations. Weve had some good and some bad in the past, but she is the best.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen has been an excellent realtor for us. We found our home within weeks of beginning our hunt. She was easy to get ahold of, a great listener, and clearly knowledgeable. Kathleen was honest and upfront with us as well as diligent in getting paperwork done quickly. She is a good communicator and very helpful in the buying process. She was also so flexible, understanding, and patient as we looked at homes with two children under two. If we had a question, she would give an answer or make sure she could find one in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend her to our friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was our agent during the recent sale of our home and we were very pleased. She was knowledgeable regarding the market and was always responsive if we had a question or concern. Her professionalism and patient counsel smoothed out any bumps we encountered during the sale of our home and continued even after we had moved out of the house. We would recommend her with no reservations.

ZillowVERIFIED Wonderful experience! We were referred to Kathleen by our relocation company because of her knowledge and experience in the Fredericksburg/Fawn Lake area and it really showed. Kathleen sold our home in less than a week for over list price and it was a very pleasant experience. She has our highest recommendation!

Review for Member: Kathleen Hayden
ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen is truly exceptional! She was so considerate, personable, and attentive as a seller?s agent on a property we wanted to see that we had to have her as our agent. So knowledgeable, so professional, so attentive, and has a great sense of humor! She guided us away from questionable homes, but always listened to our preference above all else, even when she wasn?t sure it was feasible. She was so patient and used her vast life experiences to coach and encourage us through the extremely stressful journey. Her tact and poise kept things smooth in tense negotiations, and in two days of house hunting with her in person, we found and made a successful offer on our dream home. Now, we are moved in and we absolutely LOVE IT! Thank you sooooo much Kathleen!!!

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was referred to us through my relocation program for a duty station transfer. We arrived on a Saturday and she already had three showings lined up for us to see on Sunday. She is very knowledgeable of the Fredericksburg/Spotsylvania areas as well as the surrounding cities. Kathleen was very responsive and answered every question we had. She walked us through the closing process to the very end, which was excellent as the legal firm almost dropped the ball the day before closing with a title issue. We couldnt have asked for a better realtor and will recommend her to everyone. Thank you again Kathleen for everything!

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I highly recommend Kathleen Hayden of Long & Forster if you are looking for a professional, knowledgeable and personable realtor. Kathleen understands the local housing market and suggested a marketing plan for our house which included home staging, professional photos and open house. Additionally, Kathleen has a high work ethic, excellent communication skills but most of all she is ethical and conducts business with the highest level of integrity.

She was professional, quick with responses, and gave us the honest advice to assist us through the selling process.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was an agent referred to me by a close friend who is also in the Real Estate business who was not in the area and was trying to find me the best agent to help me in my area. Kathleen was awesome from the day I met her. She is very knowledgeable and it was very obvious that she sincerely cared to find me the perfect home. I learned tips and advice from here that other agents I worked with in the past did not inform me on. I would highly recommend using her as you will not be disappointed! She is very reliable and great to share your house experience with!

She explained things and took the extra time to make sure we understood everything, she really cared about making sure we got the right home and had our best interest at heart!! If you are in the market to buy a home and need an experienced realtor with a great personality my husband and I both recommend Kathleen.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was fantastic! She helped me sell my home quickly in the fall of 2018, and she was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. From staging to closing, she was involved with every step of the selling process, and she went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure I got top dollar for my house. She was extremely helpful and organized, and her process was easy to understand. She offered sound advice that helped me negotiate the market and make my home more appealing to buyers. Kathleen knows the market and has great connections that made the process so much easier. Hire her, and you will sell your house!

ZillowVERIFIED I would highly recommend Kathleen if you are listing your home in the Fredericksburg area. She was prompt, courteous, and very knowledgeable about the market. We were selling our home from 2 states away, but dealing with Kathleen you would have never known it. She communicated very well with us and just made the entire process really simple. She used a professional photographer to take photos of our home for the listing, and provided vendors to fix issues that were brought up during the home inspection! She did everything! Best part, our home was listed for one day and sold! Highly recommended, we would definitely use Kathleen again if looking to buy or sell a home in Virginia.

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was so helpful in this process! She walked through the house, gave us pointers for staging, and helped make sure the house was as marketable as it could be. She also hired a wonderful photographer who helped ensure our online photos stood out among all the other house listings. Kathleens comp analysis made sure our house was priced well, too. In fact, thats why I think it sold so fast. It was only on the market a little over a week. One of the other things I appreciated about Kathleen was her accessibility. She was always quick to answer an email and always with a great attitude. I cant recommend her enough!

ZillowVERIFIED Kathleen was such a big help to my husband and I. We had worked with Long and Foster with purchasing our first home, and that realtor had actually moved. She had recommended us to Kathleen. Kathleen assisted us with selling our home, and purchasing our next one. We looked at over 100 houses until we found the perfect one. She was always available and worked around our schedule to see the homes. Some days we thought wed never find the perfect home and she stuck by us until we found the right one. She always gave us her honest opinion and made the processing so easy. I would recommend Kathleen to anyone that is looking to sell or purchase a new home.

ZillowVERIFIED We chose Kathleen after we were looking for an agent familiar with Severna Park since we were relocating from out of town. We happened to meet her at an open house and we left that open house saying if we move to this area, wed call her to be our agent. That is what happened and she was a delight to work with. She was very responsive, very knowledgeable about the Severna Park area, answered our questions/concerns honestly and we felt she guided us well throughout the whole house buying process. In fact, she went above and beyond our expectations with helping us get connected with various services etc in the area. We appreciate all of her expertise in helping us find our forever home and would highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I were relocating to the area. We did not know anyone or any agents. We met Kathleen at an open house we attended while we were in the early stages of home shopping. When we decided to seriously vstart looking for a home, we realised we did not have an agent or even know an agent. Kathleen had impressed us several weeks before at the open house. We called and thankfully she was available to help us in our search. The home we decided to purchase was for sale by owner. Kathleen was amazing. It was almost like she had to fulfill a duel role as an agent but never lost sight of our best interest. Kathleen worked very hard on this sale and we cannot thank her enough. Kathleens honesty, integrity, and protective nature of her clients best interest are attributes she possesses that make her clients comfortable in a stressful purchase of a home. Kathleen is the best. We highly recommend Kathleens ability to help anyone find their home.
