Lonnie was spectacular! From the moment I reached out with a text showing interest, he responded and kept me in the loop every step of the way. I never had to worry about anything. He made everything happened smoothly. I really enjoyed working with him to find the house I wanted within the parameters I wanted. I 100 recommend!
Lonnie was an amazing realtor and human being! We began working with him long distance as we planned our move from California to the DMV area. He was extremely knowledgeable about the DMV area and helped us think through the many options we had for finding the perfect home. He was always there. After making the move he quickly helped us tour properties, ask the right questions, and understand how to make the best investment possible. After finding our property, he was right on point about the type of offer we could put in and even negotiated the price down. We love our new home and thank Lonnie for helping set us up for this next stage in our lives.
Lonnie has truly excelled as our realtor. In this ever-evolving market, his unwavering determination to find the perfect property for us stands out. He went above and beyond to educate us throughout the process and offered valuable guidance on competitive offers. His patience, kindness, and reliability have been remarkable. Due to the challenges posed by this market, including losing out on multiple bids, we opted for a summer hiatus to bolster our budget. Remarkably, Lonnie remained vigilant on our behalf and found our ideal home that fit within our existing budget. We toured the home on a Saturday and our offer was accepted the very next day. Without his efforts, this home would not be ours. We are so grateful for everything he has done for us and look forward to working with him again.
Lonnie did an outstanding job with helping us getting our house, he was there every step of the way every meeting we had he was there every walk through, and inspections he was there. Lonnie is very knowledgeable in real estate Hes the guy that you would need in your corner. He has shown to me that hes is worth each of those five stars.
Lonnie was great to work with and helped me find the perfect home in the Washington, DC area. During the offer and signing stage he talked me through every document and answered any questions I had making the process stress free. Would definitely recommend working with Lonnie.
Lonnie listed and sold our old home and helped us buy our new home. He was a pleasure to work with. Very knowledgeable, gave great advice, was extremely communicative, and proactive. The entire process was smooth, effortless, and fast. We have given his contact information to family that are moving into the area, and would not hesitate to work with him again.
Lonnie was everything I had hoped for in an agent: knowledgeable, responsive, and honest. He would show us places, and unlike some others I briefly had showings with in the past, wouldn't attempt to wallpaper over problems just to try and make a sale. He discusses the pros and cons of each property in earnest, and what he felt would be realistic in terms of offers based on the current market assessment. The home buying/selling process is always stressful, but Lonnie made it as easy as I could imagine it being. All this in a really cool, calm, collected guy really helped with the sense of ease. He went to bat for us when we found our place and looked after the contingencies for repairs, even when the seller was, to put it lightly, lackadaisical in their approach. He took time to go back and back and back to check the status of the repairs with us to insure a smooth closing. For selling our old place, he was, again, a total rockstar. He knew the market, what was realistic for a quick sell, and advised us on any and all offers, and the pros and cons of each. Honestly, can't say enough about how smooth he made every process. Absolutely stellar realtor, and honestly, just a chill dude.
AMAZING realtor! Found my wife and I the exact home & land option we were seeking. His knowledge of the market and persistence in negotiating everything with the sellers was second to none. Highly recommended!
Lonnie, is my first and only realtor I will ever work with! I was referred by a good friend and working with Lonnie was the best decision I could have made for my first home purchase in DC. Lonnie was alway prompt, prepared and active the entire time. He was proactive and kept me in the loop of everything at all times. He is knowledgeable about everything and always had an answer for anything I asked. He was helpful in finding homes I liked based on my criteria and when I didnt like a home he sent other options but never pressured me into settling. He always made sure I was sure. I truly am thankful to have worked with him and surely will in the future.
Loonies knowledge and professionalism was outstanding. Mr. Scales understood my goals and objectives. Once he knew the style of house, kitchen amenities, bathroom layout, and basement design it became easier. Lonnie will and does support clients every step of the way. I am so impressed I offered him the opportunity to show others potential clients my house. Thank you Lonnie have become a good friend. Regards, Mr. Ron Howard
As a first time home buyer, I wanted someone who was knowledgeable, a good listener and someone I could trust. Lonnie exceeded my expectations. He was super patient with me and I never felt rushed into my purchase. Lonnie found me an awesome off market deal and it felt so good not having to engage in a bidding war. Lonnie is also a great advocate for his clients. I'm not sure there are enough words to express how grateful I am. I would definitely recommend him and will use him again, if the need arises.
Lonnie Scales made our home selling process easy, smooth and fast! Lonnie was knowledgeable, helpful and made this process incredibly easy. This was especially important to us since we were living in another state. He was even able to provide recommendations for contracting services. We had experience with purchasing a home before but were new to selling property. We were apprehensive at first because the market was crazy at the time. The level of customer service that Lonnie provided was top-notch which aided in our decision to sell our home. He walked us through the process, recommended what was really necessary to prepare our home for the market, listened to our concerns and explained things in a way that we could understand. We had numerous conversations about our options and we set realistic expectations, and he delivered! He even offered referrals for the work we needed done to the house. I highly recommend Lonnie for any of your real estate needs!

Lonnie went above and beyond my expectations for the home buying process. My first time home purchase was a smooth and seamless process.

Hes resourceful, we were able to close with a really good rate . We will definitely recommend Lonnie Scales to all our friends and Family
Greatest real estate agent ever. Was a blast to work with Lonnie. Very knowledgeable and made the entire process a breeze. He recommended items to take off our mortgage to save us money which were unnecessary, and that alone gives him an A in my book. Highly recommended.
Lonnie provided excellent service through the Home Buyer process. He was very knowledgeable about the process and conveyed that information to me efficiently and effectively throughout the process. Lonnie was very in tuned with my wish list for a property in mind and really allowed me to steer the process in homes to choose from. Lonnie was extremely supportive through the long process; advising me on all matters including with the external partners (the developer, home inspector and etc.) The personable service was outstanding.
Lonnie Scales was an excellent realtor throughout my entire home selling process. He made sure my house was staged and everything was in order for my home to be sold. He was always available to answer any question no matter how small at any time. I recommend Mr. Scales highly to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home! KiaJ
Mr Scales was both patient and attentive. He makes hisself available when needed to tend to the needs of his clients. I would recommend his services without hesitation.
Amazing! We were new to home buying, and were scared to buy a home during the current pandemic. However, Lonnie made this the best experience and process we could have ever asked for. He was polite, professional, and very patient with us. He Lonnie showed us many properties and found the prefect home that meet all our needs. From day one to closing he was right there helping us along the way. We could not have asked for a better realtor, Lonnie was the best!
Lonnie gets all 5 stars from me in every category possible. As a single mom buying my first home, I could not have asked for a better realtor to help me through this process. He made it a seamless experience and helped my find the perfect place for my daughter and I. He is good as what he does and Id recommend him to anyone looking for a solid realtor and just all around great person.
Working with Lonnie was an absolute pleasure. Being a first-time homebuyer can be a daunting experience. Thanks to Lonnies expertise, I felt confident about my decisions throughout the entire process. From the timely on-going communication remarkable accessibility, and (most importantly) through the inspection and closing process, Lonnie proved himself to be a true pro. Its also worth mentioning that Lonnie is a NACA-certified real estate agent. If you know anything about closing on a home through NACA then you know the process can be a lot more arduous and overwhelming than with a standard lender. Lonnie remained attentive and proactive to NACAs strict requirements, allowing me to close in record time. I would highly recommend Lonnie to anyone looking to buy a home.
My family and I are overjoyed to have recently purchased our first home. This was our first time buying a house, and we had a lot to learn about the process. Lonnie was able to provide the highest quality care and information to help us reach our goal. He is an excellent communicator, who works with professionalism and urgency to get the job done. Lonnie was with us every step of the way and used his knowledge, skills, and extensive network of resources to make sure that our needs were met from our first inquiry, to closing and beyond. He was also very honest, and was not looking just to aEURoesell a house.aEUR? He will let you know if something is not right with a home and lead you to better options. I would highly recommend Lonnie Scales to anyone who would like to purchase a home. He truly caters to the buyers needs.
During the time I was looking for my property Lonnie took the time to get to know me. He is very knowledgeable of the local areas in which I was interested. Lonnie was always very responsive to the many calls, emails, questions, texts he received from me no matter what time of day or night. He carefully listened to my likes and dislikes and reacted accordingly. There is never any pressure put upon me to purchase. He gave me ample time to make my decisions. Lonnie is a very skillful and realistic negotiator. I am very happy with the property which I purchased. Without a doubt, I would recommend Lonnie to any buyers looking for properties. I thank Lonnie for all his tireless work.
From the beginning of my wife and Is new home search, Lonnie Scales went above and beyond to accommodate everything on our wishlist. Not only did he find developments that would be of interest to us, but once we selected a builder and development, he served as our advocate, ensuring that we were getting everything we wanted and paid for. Lonnies passion for brokering was consistently on display, and his expertise, attention to detail, and calming nature gave us the confidence during periods that typically result in stress and anxiety. We could not have selected a better real estate agent. Thank you Lonnie for helping us build our dream home!
Lonnie Scales feels like family. As first-time home buyers we had a ton of questions and he answered them all flawlessly. From the first viewing we had, he asked us what we were thinking and also provided an expert opinion. Lonnie helped us find our forever home. We would highly recommend anyone who is looking for a home to work with him. Pick Lonnie and he will help you find your dream home!
Excellent to work with. Lonnie is always available throughout the process. He is very knowledgeable on the area and properties. He makes sure you get into a home that is perfect for you.
Thanks Lonnie for all of your help throughout my home buying process. The process was seamless and couldnt have gone any better. While I was still waiting for the aEUR~other shoe to drop, it never did. I was anxiously waiting for a roller coaster ride of a mortgage and closing process that Ive heard from family and friends, BUT I was completely WRONG. I put my offer on my property on June 13th and EXACTLY 30 days on July 13th, I was signing my heart away and got the keys to my new home. Lonnie and his team of professionals are true to their word aEUR~WE WILL CLOSE IN 30 DAYS!! Thanks again and I wish you nothing but success.
Awesome! Lonnie was timely, knowledgeable, and patient. He also has great connections! With his lender and closing agent, we were able to do a 14 day close during this pandemic. We highly recommend to anyone looking to buy a home, especially if you need a quick turn around.
Going with Lonnie was the best decision we made! We were looking to close and get in our first home in a very quick turnaround time. Lonnie handled like the true professional he is. He was able to keep us calm and level headed throughout the entire process. He also has continued to be a voice for any questions we may have post closing. Would definitely suggest going with Lonnie as he brings a personal approach and level of genuine concern for his client's long term well being.
Lonnie, knew exactly the type of house I wanted after our first conversation. I would send Lonnie houses I wanted to see along with the options he selected, almost every time he could tell from the pictures it didn't align to what I wanted. Lonnie was my third realtor and was able to get me under contract in 4 months. Goes to show he works to understand his client's need and uses his professional experience to help you find the right home. It was a wonderful experience working with Lonnie and I sincerely say he is good at what he does!
Lonnie help me with searching for and buying a home. As a first time buyer, Lonnie educated me about all steps and situations in the buying process. He was able to point me to all parties involved in the buying process (loan officer, title contact, and inspection team).
Lonnie is outstanding. Just the thought of purchasing my first home sent my anxiety through the roof! I contacted several agents and had consultations with each of them. Lonnie was the only one that made me feel like we were going to conquer the process together. He went above and beyond to make sure I understood each step, document, and dollar amount. His attention to detail allowed me to exhale; he continuously earned my trust by being responsive, available and proactive. I couldnt be happier now - as a first time homebuyer - with choosing Lonnie as my realtor! And I love my home. :-)
Lonnie is very proactive in meeting the needs of his clients. Often going above and beyond to ensure that all deals occur in the most time efficient fashion.
My experience with Lonnie Scales was absolutely great he broke down the whole buying process so that I would understand, and hes really invested in finding the right home, hes not going to just put you in any home he wants the best for you and thats how he was with my family and I appreciate it. If you want to close on a home #closingwithscales is the right and best thing to do.
Lonnie is THE BEST! He was so thorough in finding me my first home while I was away. I had complete trust because of his knowledge of the area, his expertise when it comes to real estate, buying and reselling, and his hustle. He went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable with my home selection while answering tons of questions. I still reach out to him about small nuances & hes ready to help where he can. My first home buying experience has been wonderful, greatly due to him. Thanks Lonnie!!
We can't speak highly enough of our experience with Lonnie Scales. We were first-time homebuyers with very little knowledge about how to find the right place. We met other realtors but we knew instantly that he was the one for us. He is honest and hands-on and he really helped to take the pressure off of us. We never felt forced to make an offer and when we finally found the one he worked for is to get the best rate plus extras. We always recommend Lonnie to family and friends looking to buy or sell. Hes the best!
Lonnie is not only knowledgeable, responsive and patient, he supported our family in ways I never imagined. Ive purchased and sold several houses but this is the first time that my realtor not only cared about selling my home, he spent hours helping me remove trash that my tenant left. When we were ready to purchase a home, I was busily supporting an ill parent so he reviewed homes to provide a summary so I could quickly find a home and go to settlement in 14 days. Hes amazing and youll enjoy working with him.
Lonnie is one of the best realtors around. Hes professional, patient, and an overall expert when it comes to home. I was told no so many times, but Lonnie kept finding me homes and making offers. I was able to secure my first home with his help. He also didnt waste my time trying to get me to view homes that didnt meet my requirements or budgets.
found the perfect home for me. and was there to inspect and contact contractors when issues were found or questions came about during the building phase of our home. would recommend 10/10 service/
Lonnie is Extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Lonnie was very punctual and responsive. I Would 100% recommend. He Explained processes and viewpoints in an easy to understand manner. He took my input and found the right property for me.
