ZillowVERIFIEDI have used Rich on more than a handful of transactions. He is an amazing realtor. You aren't going to find a more conscientious hard working person anywhere. I've literally seen him walking the neighborhood where I had a property for sale, introducing himself and letting everyone know my property was for sale. He also negotiates for you as your rep, not someone who just wants to get the deal closed. I've worked with multiple realtors in a number of regions. Rich is second to none and will always be my go to person in this area.

ZillowVERIFIEDIn 1999, Rich helped us purchase out first (and only) house here in VA. Several years later, Rich also helped our daughter purchase her condo. Rich made it a very easy process since we lived out of state at the time and didn't know anyone to help with the process. Over the years, we have kept in touch with Rich. He has been a good source of recommendations for just about anything.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich provides excellent service and understands the intricacies of the Northern Virginia market. Selling a home in the off season is a difficult task - especially when you have moved out of the area. Rich worked incredibly hard to not only make the sale happen, but to get the new owner into the home and settled in prior to Thanksgiving. Rich assisted with home preparation, presentation and makes himself readily available to the seller and prospective buyers - literally hands on. His time in uniform and service ethos continue to shape his ethos and work ethic. Rich stays in touch with you and your neighbors - not just to cultivate clients and understand the market, but as a friend with a vested interest in the community. First class service and dependability whether buying or selling a home in Prince William County.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich and his team were amazing to work with -- he put us at ease as he made his assessment of our homes value and talked us thru his recommendations to prep our home for sale. Rich is highly professional, personable, prompt, and precise! We have bought and sold homes in the past, dealing with various realtors, and can say Rich was the best to work with. Without reservation, we highly recommend Rich and his outfit.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich is an amazing agent! He will work FOR YOU! He'll push you to really find what you like and ask questions that you didn't think of. He's got a lot of experience, great relationships, great skill, and he's just fun too. My wife and I were getting exhausted going to open houses and searching for a place ourselves. We brought on Rich and at the end of a long day, he suggested an option that was not readily listed or apparent to us and we ended up signing and purchasing - at ~60k below the asking price! We've been moved in for 2 months and we love it. He's been in contact with us the whole time to make sure we're properly settled. Highly recommend Rich DiGiovanna - 5/5 stars

ZillowVERIFIEDI first used Rich to find a place in Lakeridge to rent when I was in the Army back in 1997, and since then he has helped me, and my wife buy 2 houses and sell one. I will tell you if you are looking to buy or sell in the northern VA area you want Rich as your realtor, there is no one with more knowledge in the real estate game!

ZillowVERIFIEDI have worked with Rich on two separate properties and he was an absolute expert! He knows exactly how to stage a home, how to describe your property to get the BEST attraction. Rich was always professional and very honest. He answered all of our questions and concerns and made us feel super comfortable throughout the process, so much so that we used him again with out second property as a reliable resource. If you want a "5 Star" Agent go with Rich DiGiovanna, you won't regret it!!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDRich DiGiovanna and his realty team did an excellent job preparing our home to be listed, listing it in the MLS, and "getting it sold" in a timely manner. Rich recommended renovations and repairs and suggested a contractor for all the repairs and renovations. We followed all of his recommendations. Rich then coordinated all of the work until it was completed. After the renovations and repairs were completed, Rich listed the house on a Thursday and held an open house Sunday, three days later. In a matter of days, we received six offers above the asking price - with no contingencies! Highly recommend Rich and his team for your realty needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis review is for an associate, supposedly the Property manager of Superior Property Management group. We submitted our application for a rental home along with the $60 fee only to find out that there were 6 other applicants in front of us. Eileen directly told our realtor that the first application processed was accepted meaning that the other 6 applicants were never processed or reviewed. Our application was never denied, just didn't have the chance to be reviewed since it was 7th "in line", which is completely understandable during these crazy times in the market. However, we basically paid $60 to send our application in...no processing was done, nothing was reviewed. This company pocketed almost $400 from people who applied who were never processed, which I think is incredibly immoral to take advantage of people during this time in the market. Rich directly told me that the best way to contact Eileen was through text messaging. I sent her ONLY professional, respectful text messages regarding our application to which she contacted my realtor asking "tell your client to stop contacting me". I spoke to an associate in their office in regards to getting a refund for the $60, he said to contact Eileen and it shouldn't be an issue...I emailed Eileen and she has refused to contact me directly. I sent our application and documentation via email, she refused to contact me or keep me updated with our application. She denied my request for a refund via Zelle and refused to acknowledge my email to explain or talk to me in ANY way. We are an active military family and this experience was awful.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich was a great real estate agent. Very proactive and willing to do almost anything at a moments notice in helping find and sell my home. He connected us with very good house repair people that we quick and did not break the bank. He also provided us a very nice and helpful interior design POC for helping set the house up. As he thought we averaged more than 1 person viewing our house each day with more than 1 on the weekends. We consistently got offers in and interest in our house was immediate and consistent from the point of putting it on the market until we listed it as under contract. We believe we got a fair and reasonable price and only settled in the closing cost of the property after following Rich's direction to fix certain areas up. He also was very honorable in making suggestions as the home inspection and other conditions for the sell of the house came in. He truly wanted both parties to be happy with the buy and sell of my home. Even several months later, he immediately responded to a question I had posted by the buyer, and again showed his integrity in his answer and timeliness.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich exceeded our already-high expectations during the sale and purchase of our home. He got our house under contract within three days of being on the market and closed within 30 days for an amount over our listing price. During the process of getting to "sold," we found that Rich cares, is a man of high integrity, is knowledgeable, works hard, and has an experienced team that adds value during the selling process. He has earned a consistent high rating for a reason. From the first time we met Rich at one of his open houses, we got the sense that he was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and cared about being the best realtor out there. Then we checked his reviews and saw that he was highly rated, which was consistent with our first impression. Therefore, we held onto his contact information, and when it came time to sell and buy our new house, we felt confident that Rich was the best person to help us. After working with Rich, we found our impressions were reality. He has a great eye for detail and an experienced team that led us to getting our house ready for sale. Rich provided many tips on how to stage our old home and make it look great. He hired a professional stager, Linda, who gave us great tips to make the house look its best with the items that were already there. Photos of our home were great and even though we didn't need to use flyers (because our house sold so fast), they also looked great. Once we were under contract, he had a team efficiently handle all of the administrative steps to get ready for closing. When Rich said he would do something he did it. We felt great about Rich because we knew that he was doing his best job for us, and we can't thank him enough for this! He cared about us as if we were his most important customers, even though we only met him at an open house for the first time. I suspect all of his customers feel the same. With regards to helping us buy our new home, we purchased a new construction home, so we don't have much experience with Rich in terms of him showing us homes. However, when selecting options and lots for our new home, Rich provided some good tips on things to consider, and helped us walk through the newly built home to make sure there weren't any deficiencies. We were happy that we had his knowledge as we purchased our new home as well.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich DiGiovanna took care of our home sale entirely. When I say that he took care of it, I mean he did everything. EVERYTHING. My family lives and works overseas. We received an email that my tenant of nearly ten years was moving out. My wife and I decided that it was time to sell the house as we had already made the decision that we would not be moving back to the area. We were unable to return and deal with selling the home, so we were faced with the daunting task of finding an agent to help us sell the place in our absence. We found Rich highly rated on Homelight and gave him a call. I immediately knew we made the right choice when we explained our situation, and he didn't hesitate to get our details and schedule an appointment with our tenant to see the place. You may be thinking, "that's what any real estate agent would do," but Rich's confidence and competent knowledge of home sales washed away our apprehension entirely. For example, we knew the home would need work and were willing to sell the house as-is to avoid the pain of dealing with contractors from afar. Rich would have none of it! Rich documented the required home repairs, advised us on the best course of action, personally coordinated with my tenant on moving out, organized a team of fantastic contractors to do the repairs, listed the home, and ultimately sold our home quickly and for a far better price than we initially expected. We suspected Rich would be the right choice based on his very high ratings, but he blew our expectations out of the water with the way he and his team took care of our family. Thanks, Rich. You're Awesome.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich knows his stuff and is no-nonsense. If you want to sell your home, he can make it happen. He is also realistic and knows the market so will price it properly to sell. Rich is prompt to respond to communication and if any concern arises, he does the research and solves problems. I recommend Rich DiGiovanna without hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIEDAfter going through an extensive research process of interviewing 12 top agents from three separate real estate agent ranking services, all the indicators pointed to Rich and so engaged in a contract. Well, performance result metrics do matter and Rich got our home sold in one day at asking price! He has the extensive client network, has very strong knowledge of the local market and lives in the Fairfax Station area. Most importantly, he was detail oriented, client accommodating and high energy with a can do attitude that helped us move out and close with ease. I only wish Rich was also in Florida to help me buy my new home.

Their expertise and professionalism generated a great offer at terms we were extremely happy with. We had a full price offer within two days of putting our home on MLS.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich was a consummate professional from the start of our home search to the day we signed our title. From the very beginning, Rich took it upon himself to ensure my family and I were made a top priority by making himself available to answer all of our questions, give us professional advice, and to introduce us to information or ideas that would help us find the best home for our budget. Rich worked nights, weekends, and odd hours in order to give my family the best house hunting experience possible. Rich always made us feel valued and important, he always kept his promises, and he was punctual on every deadline. When my family decided on the home we wanted, Rich made the process easy and smooth by taking care of all of the details, both large and small. Rich supervised the completion of inspections, seller commitments, and even the installation of a Radon mitigation system. All my family had to do was decide things like, "Yes, we want that included in the contract" or "No, we can take care of that home improvement project on our own." Rich did so much work behind the scenes that it made our home buying experience easy and stress-free. I always looked forward to Rich's updates and regular communication because it meant things were being completed without me having to ask. Rich truly sets the standard for real estate professionals. I only recommend Rich DiGiovanna for buying/selling homes. He is an experienced professional who truly puts his clients above all else. Rich is the absolute best real estate agent in the Northern Virginia area and he is the reason my family has its dream home.

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Rich made the difficult and stressful process of selling a house so much easier to navigate. After selling a house down the street from us, he knocked at our door and we could not have chosen a better agent to work with and represent us. He is extremely knowledgeable about the market, readily available to answer our questions and patiently walk us through the terms of the various agreements we were signing. Simply put, he is just a really good person. He is transparent and willing to take on all the stress of negotiations so that we didn't have to. He helped us identify a lot of little improvements in the house that we wouldn't have noticed, but which helped the house sell as well as it did. Even though he is a busy man, you will never be made to feel like he is distracted or not focused on his work with you. We cannot recommend Rich highly enough; he always produces high quality work and gives his very best.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich was an absolute pleasure to work with. I started by calling Rich after doing some research and looking for a reputable realtor with experience buying the kind of house we were looking for. Unfortunately we didn't work with Rich for long. We looking at a few houses on Sunday, and by the next Tuesday we put an offer in that was accepted. It is because of Rich's availability and readiness that we got our dream house. We saw this house at 7:30 at night (after telling Rich about it mid day) and we submitted our offer around midnight. The next day we got the call that our offer was accepted. Not only was he a top notch realtor, but we often works with a great mortgage company. The mortgage officer he recommended gave the sellers agent a call the morning of and vouched for us and guaranteed a timely closing. If you're ready to buy a house- look out! If you hook up with Rich you'll be moving in before you know it. Thanks Rich!

ZillowVERIFIEDRich is friendly personable man, very professional, aggressive but not pushy. A man with dignity and respect for others. A year and half ago, shortly after I signed contract with him to sell my house, a tragedy happened to my family and I told Rich that it was impossible for us to move at that moment. He gave us his condolences, voided the contract, not even " When you are ready please contact me". During that period, he contacted our family periodically, as a friend to see how we are doing, never a word about our house. This is a man who put other human being's welfare before his profit.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a retired realtor in No.Va. with 27 years experience, I recognize excellence in the business when I see it. During those years, I worked closely with hundreds of realtors but when I decided to sell a couple of investment condos, only one person came to mind - Rich DiGiovanna! I remembered how Rich had impressed me with his professionalism and dedication. I was not disappointed. My efficiency condo was not a high priced property, so he didn't stand to make a huge commission. Nevertheless, the level of service from Rich and his support staff was so extraordinary, I could have been selling a $2 million house! My little condo looked fabulous in the professional video and wide-angle photos in the listing on the web. His no-expense-spared marketing strategy brought forth immediate offers and Rich negotiated a very good contract. His very efficient staff kept me fully up-to-date on the progress - not once did I need to call to check on the status! All I had to do was show up at the settlement! I will certainly list my other condo with Rich as soon as my tenant leaves.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich is a wonderful, excellency, and marvelous human being. He is highly professional. One evening I was outside working in my yard when this gentle man showed up, asking me questing about why did I remove the house from the market. (to cut long story short) He told me he can sell the house in two weeks or less. We had an appointment to meet. He came and show me how to stage the house. He even came another day to stage with us. (what a wonderful man) We listen to all his advice and it worked out perfectly in two weeks. Rich and his team created a beautiful colorful first class brochure and outstanding video presentation from a professional photographs that were taken by a highly professional photographer. He advertised strategically, held an Open House in less than a week. Our home was sold at the price we wanted. He was with us every step of the way, very responsive to all of our many questions and concerns, he helped negotiate the sale of our home in a manner that made us feel extremely satisfied.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe called Rich when we getting ready to put our home on the market because we noticed that the houses being sold in our area were being sold by him. It was a bit daunting to be told by Rich and his design consultant that the home you loved needed a few changes before his sign went up in front. BUT, we listened, took his advice, made the updates and changes. We undertook a major purging and decluttering of our home of more than 30 years and while it was emotionally and physically challenging it was well worth the effort. Rich and his team created a slick colorful first class brochure from the professional photographs that were taken and an outstanding video presentation highlighting our home and the many advantages of living in our neighborhood. He advertised strategically, held an Open House and in less than three weeks our home sold at full price. He was with us every step of the way, responsive to our many questions and concerns, and helped negotiate the sale of our home in a manner that made us feel extremely satisfied. We would highly recommend Rich DiGiovanna for all your real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich was a true professional from day one. Our home had been a rental and needed many updates to get it ready for market. We looked into selling it "as is" and avoid the hassle of renovations. We were hesitant at first to put in money for the renovations as Rich recommended, but we did and it was money well spent! We were extremely pleased with the outcome! It was well worth it! Rich knew local contractors that were very reasonable in price and completed outstanding work in a very timely manner. The house looked gorgeous and we received two offers within three days of putting it on the market! He and his associates were always on top of things and kept us abreast of the progress. We have worked with a lot of real estate agents and can honestly say Rich and his team are one of the best! You will not be disappointed with Rich!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe put our house on the market late but rich and his team got us full asking price in just a few weeks! It started with a walkthrough our house and recommendations of what to do to make it show better followed by a specialist that helped us stage, or remove, the items required to show the house at its best. then came the photo's and videos that really showcased the house. People look at houses online and rich gave us a GREAT online presence. As a result, we had several showings a week. Rich was always patient, responsive and non-judgmental in his approach. Both my wife and I always felt very confortable with ever part of the sale and always felt he was working on our behalf. Once an offer was made and a contract in place, Rich's team took care of everything. We just showed up at closing. I would HIGHLY recommend Rich to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIEDI live in Portland Oregon and was recommended to Rich by a previous neighbor. I listed my condo in Woodbridge Va with him. I traveled to Va to meet him and talk about the details of what needed to be done to sell the property and what I was willing to do. After listing the property he took care of all the arrangements to clean the place up and make it marketable as I was in Oregon. At a critical point in the negotiations he coached me to do a certain counter offer which in the long run saved me about $7,000. Additionally the move date was moved up 15 days so I didn't have to make another payment on the condo. I couldn't be happier with this experience, and I used to sell realestate!

ZillowVERIFIEDFirst of all, let us declare that without Rich, we would not have been able to sell our home at the desired price and in such a short timeframe. We were under contract in less than thirty days after putting the house on the market. Rich DiGiovanna is an outstanding realtor. First, as we gathered information on multiple realtors to determine which one may be the best, it was evident that Rich was the best. His reviews were the highest, his advertisement of homes the most appealing and complete, and the number of homes he sold within the shortest amount of time far exceeded his competitors. When we selected Rich as our realtor and prepared our home for sale, Rich guided us through the process. First, he conducted a detailed survey of the home with us and in collaboration, we developed a plan for updates that was feasible and cognizant of an established budget. Since we were not knowledgeable about reputable contractors within the area, Rich provided us contact information about home repair and renovation businesses with which he had worked with in the past. The contractors were excellent and Rich inspected all completed work to ensure high-quality standards had been met. The renovations were excellent, very reasonable in terms of cost, and timely without any issues. Again, without the assistance of Rich, we would not have been able to accomplish the needed work When the house was ready to be placed on the market for sale, Rich maximized the venues for advertisement and developed an extremely high-quality advertisement portfolio. The online video and tour of the house was beautiful accentuating the natural light and the features of the home. The brochures were beautiful, again with excellent photos and a very appealing appearance. Information about the home was comprehensive and annotated key and unique features. Throughout this timeframe, Rich updated us routinely. Once we had an offer, Rich negotiated an excellent sale and we quickly moved to a successful closure. We were so thankful for Rich's service, for without him, we would not achieved this sale. Rich is outstanding and we recommend, without hesitation, his services. If you want to sell your home, you must select Rich as your realtor!

ZillowVERIFIEDRich knows Northern Virginia really well. He knew where I wanted to live even before I did. Even though I wasn't interested in viewing homes in the area where I wound up buying, Rich convinced me to have an open mind and trust his area knowledge. He negotiated a lower purchase price than I expected, got the seller to fix items after they had insisted on not doing any work or offering any compensation, and worked with me through what was probably one of the oddest closings ever. He still keeps in contact to make sure I am happy with my purchase. He was definitely more involved than the last real estate agent I used to purchase a house.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe've bought and sold several houses in the past, and can say with certainty that our experience with Rich and his team was the best. They delivered, by far, the most service and the best results for the same commission rates as the others. He not only provided excellent marketing of our house, but excellent analytics regarding that marketing, which allowed us to make informed decisions on pricing. Once we had an offer, the excellent service continued, quickly and competently moving to a signed contract, and a successful closing. He and his team kept in constant communication with us throughout the entire process. At no point were we ever left wondering what was going on with home sale. 100% satisfaction and no stress --- it doesn't get any better.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I first met Rich when he was selling our neighbor's home. He was going door to door in our community introducing himself and offering his assistance to help us, friends, family, or acquaintances with the buying/selling process. He was very knowledgeable about the area, as well as the housing market and trends. I really knew he'd be the realtor for us if we ever decided to sell when he was out shoveling our neighbor's driveway, first thing in the morning, after a snow fall. He sold our neighbor's home expeditiously and they were extremely positive about the experience. Rich is a trustworthy realtor who really cares about doing a job well done. Rich was the first realtor we called when we put our home up for sale. He came to our home, did a walk through, gave us multiple helpful hints, and ultimately left it up to us as to what we were comfortable with fixing or changing. He also had the names and numbers for painters, wood floor refinishers, driveway sealers, you name it, that were very reasonably priced for the area. He pulled up multiple comps in our area and really made us feel comfortable with choosing an amount to list our home. Rich's extra efforts to generate buyers were evident with his marketing and online advertising of our home, which included a beautiful virtual tour with wide lens photographs. Rich and his team are a pleasure to work with. They kept us informed and updated every step of the way. Their response time was excellent and there was always an answer for any question during the process. We had multiple showings with multiple offers within days. Rich's negotiating skills ultimately brought us to get over asking price for our home, something we never thought was possible. If you want a quick and painless sale with a realtor who puts you first, who is extremely knowledgeable about the area/current housing trends, with the added perks of being honest and trustworthy, choose Rich DiGiovanna. I would work with him again in a heartbeat and will always recommend him to friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy buying process with Rich could not have gone any better. I contacted him to let him know I was interested in looking at a home...within hours we met and went through the house. It turns out the first one was the winner, but Rich still took me through multiple other comparable homes in the area to make sure I was making an informed decision. The negotiation and settlement process were seamless. Rich worked extremely diligently to get me what I was asking for in my negotiations and move the deal to settlement.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe contracted with Rich to purchase a new home in Northern Virginia. Neither of us were familiar with the area and we wanted to get acquainted with the area before looking at homes. Rich was incredibly knowledgeable, and patient, giving us information and driving us around several communities before we narrowed our search. He asked GREAT questions to ensure he understood our needs. Then, he showed us a wide variety of homes that met our specifications. He was unbelievably thorough in his evaluation of each home. Ultimately, we elected to build a home that met our exact specifications and Rich was with us every step of the way, from initial contracting to selection of finishes, to inspections and walk-throughs. We always felt Rich was our advocate and partner in the process.

ZillowVERIFIEDI am a first time home buyer and initially met Rich while viewing a home he was selling, though the home was already on contract he still showed it and boy was I glad to have met him. Rich is extremely well versed in the market and his strategies are second to none. He stuck with me for quite a few months viewing all kinds of houses and every time was prompt and courteous. He gave me all kinds of tips and things to look for. Being a first time home buyer I was a bit naive and not once did I feel like Rich was "just going for the sale". I went with my own financing that ended up being a horror story when a pre-approval was no longer approved. Rich immediately sent me to his team of local financing which was a GREAT experience. He even recommended an inspector as well as an insurance agent. Everyone he sent me to was extremely helpful and personal. I will definitely be referring Rich to all my friends and family! Thanks Rich!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have previously used Rich to sell and buy homes. This time, as before, he did an excellent job walking us through the steps to prepare our home for the market. He gave us names of people to make repairs, clean the carpets and refinish wood floors. All of the workers that he recommended did a great job at a reasonable price. The photos and virtual tour of our home showed it off beautifully! Rich was responsive to our questions, and his assistant handled the closing time line with no glitches. We are so pleased with the quick and easy sale of our home, and highly recommend Rich to anyone who is ready to buy or sell a home!

ZillowVERIFIEDA friend suggested I call Rich and see if he could help me. My husband had passed away and I needed to sell my house quickly. Rich came over and I was impressed with his knowledge of the area and what the market in my neighborhood was like. Rich was very knowledgeable and together we strategized to get top dollar for my home. I was pleased with his sympathy to my situation and how confident he was that he could sell my house quickly and at a price I would be pleased with. After that initial visit I had trust in using his services with my best interest in mind. So true to his word that he would work aggressively to sell the house he had a photographer come to the house and post a "tour the home" online as an advertising effort to generate buyers. Within a week I had an offer on the house that was in the price range I wanted. Rich had to use his massive negotiating skills and got the contract negotiated that was agreeable to me and we had a closing date. Rich and his team kept me informed throughout the process so that I didn't have to be in the dark about what was going on. When I had questions he was reachable at all times and happy to discuss whatever question I had. So if you are selling your home and need a realtor with 30 + years experience, I suggest you contact Rich. His compassion and tireless efforts with the entire selling process resulted in less anxiety and stress for me. If I need a realtor in the future I will definitely call my friend Rich.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich DiGiovanna is a friendly, hard working results driven Real Estate Professional. He has a vast knowledge of the industry as well as the local market. Rich and his wife Eileen, a Property Management Specialist, had previously helped me rent and ultimately sell another piece of property and so I didn't hesitate to contact him about selling my home of 23 years. Because of his marketing and advertising strategy, Rich was able to bring in a very acceptable contract before the house went on the market. Rich was there every step of the way to answer any questions, make recommendations and make sure the whole process ran smoothly. All my phone calls and emails were answered promptly from my initial contact with Rich to even after we left the settlement table. I will contact Rich for all my future real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDI first met Rich at an open house for a different home. He was friendly/personable and it was clear that he enjoyed being in the real estate business. I researched his credentials and with his many years in this business (30+) I decided to have him represent me. We wanted to stay in our neighborhood (Daventry). We visited various homes and Rich was able to point out potential trouble spots and the pros/cons of each property. He was thorough with his observations. Due to the limited inventory in our area he went door to door to see what homes may potentially be coming on the market prior to being listed. He was easily accessible as well by phone or email. The other thing is that many of the purchase hurdles have been streamlined by him. We wanted that streamlined process and went with his recommended home inspector, mortgage broker, and title company. These ancillary services were also engaged and easy to contact especially the mortgage broker. With his help we were able to package together a competitive offer and have since closed on a home in our neighborhood. I would use Rich again.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich and Team made this whole process a breeze. This is our 2nd home we purchased with Rich. He never stops. And once you find your dream home, he's there through the whole process. His team has the buyers best interest at heart. I never dreamed that all I needed to be concerned with is packing and preparing for the move. If you are looking for a group that puts their client first, lets you know the process up-front, because surprises are not something you want, Rich is the man you need to call. I can't thank him enough for dedication and seamless process. I am in my dream home!!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe came to know Rich when I was trying to see a house he has listed. We were in process of working with other agents but once met Rich, there was no going back. He impressed us at the very first meeting with his extensive knowledge of the local market, honest assessments and professional expertise. We knew Rich was the guy to go for to find a right house and we decided to work together. He was tireless and available round the clock, weekday, weekend, morning or evenings or even nights. Together we probably saw over 50 houses before we found our current home. Despite this, Rich was always ready to help and move further, never pressing to buy any property that we did not fall love into. One of the many attributes he distinguishes himself is that he will always remain positive and will keep looking and looking for you until you find your perfect home, never pressing you to settle on something that you did not exactly liked.. And always available for you when you need. Additionally, his knowledge of the local market of Fairfax area, contacts, and negotiating skills are superb and will prove very handy especially when you have to move really fast in a competitive market. We are glad to have met Rich and are now happily settling in this great Barrington neighborhood. We will certainly go back to him in any future needs for selling or buying

ZillowVERIFIEDRich DiGiovanna sold the house next to mine a couple of years ago. I contacted him about selling my house and he was able to put the property on the market very quickly. He marketed the property on the internet using professionally produced photographs and a very effective video presentation. Within about 5 to 10 days, there were multiple offers on the property. He was able to sell my house for more than I thought possible, and he very competently negotiated for the full asking price. The entire sale process was done in a very professional and satisfactory manner.

ZillowVERIFIEDRich marketed our home with a professionally produced video and still photos that made all the difference, and generated over 5K video views and tens of thousands of views on Facebook ads. He provided us with weekly online marketing status reports to keep us in the loop and provided feedback from potential buyers and other realtors that showed our property. Rich's integrity, engaging personality, experience, client trust, negotiating skills, knowledge of the neighborhood and area, and creative ideas on staging generated tremendous traffic in marketing our property. We received multiple offers during one of the more challenging markets. We highly recommend Rich if you want a top-notch realtor who uses his skills effectively and leverages social media to the max. Our overall selling experience working with Rich was truly outstanding.
