ZillowVERIFIEDWe are so incredibly grateful for Val. As first-time homebuyers we had no idea what we were doing, and Val was endlessly patient, reassuring, and knowledgeable from the very beginning. She walked us through every step in a way that was clear, calm, and never overwhelming. What truly blew us away was how dedicated and responsive she was. When our dream home was suddenly reduced, Val arranged a next-day tour so we wouldnt miss our chance and we were the very first ones through the door. She also wrote up two same-day offers on extremely short notice and guided us through some truly complicated negotiations less than thrilling inspection findings, septic issues, well questions, termite treatments, acreage discrepancies, seller credits, repairsaEUR| all of it. She handled every twist with total confidence and professionalism!! Her flexibility was a life saver for us as well. Because of our jobs and family schedule, most of our conversations happened well after normal business hours and Val never once made us feel like an inconvenience. Her network was equally incredible. The inspectors, contractors, and specialists she brought in were thorough, honest, and fast, and having her trusted team behind us made the whole process so much less intimidating. She advocated strongly for us through every negotiation and thanks to her hard work we ended up in our dream home, well below list price!! If youre a first-time buyer or anyone who wants an agent who truly goes above and beyond, Val is exceptional. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDValerie recently helped my wife and I purchase a home I Frederick. We were moving in from out of town, and she helped significantly with teaching us the area. She has great contacts throughout the process, has a great process for working through everything in a timely manner, and even took care of some things after closing that she should not have had to doaEUR|..but she did because shes the best. Dont bother interviewing realtors, just hire Val.

ZillowVERIFIEDVal is an exceptional real estate agent who ticks all the boxes. From day one, they were readily available, making the daunting process of buying a home much smoother. Their extensive knowledge of the market and industry was evident, especially for beginners like us. What truly sets Val apart is their personal touch. Throughout the journey, they didn't just feel like an agent; she felt like a friend. Val consistently kept us updated and always had our best interests in mind, reassuring us every step of the way. If you're looking for a real estate agent who goes above and beyond, look no further than Val. Highly recommended!

ZillowVERIFIEDYou should hire Val & Chris! They offered stellar support and local knowledge & helped us sell our house way over asking given the pricing they recommended and their awareness of the market trends, and support in staging. Val went above & beyond to help us hunt for our dream home & kept us focused & energized in a crazy overwhelming market while I was 7 months pregnant with our 2nd child. I could not have asked for a better team! You will be highly satisfied with their expertise!

ZillowVERIFIEDVal helped my husband and I so much through the buying AND selling process. We actually started over a year ago thinking about selling our sweet home and Val was so patient in answering our questions and sending us information. Over time her expertise and advice made us comfortable with moving forward selling and buying! Val was able to negotiate the perfect contract that worked best for our family's needs in selling our house. She is motivated and dedicated. We cannot recommend Val (& Chris :) ) enough! They're amazing!!

ZillowVERIFIEDVal was AMAZING to work with from start to finish! Her professionalism and knowledge made the process of buying our first home such an easy process. With being on such a tight time crunch Val made every effort to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. She is always so prompt at answering any texts, phone calls and emails. She made sure all of our questions were answered and gave us her best advise on being able to secure the home that we truly wanted. She is amazing to work with and I cant speak highly enough of her! For anyone in the market looking for someone to go above and beyond I highly recommend Val!

ZillowVERIFIEDI cant speak highly enough of Valerie and Chris! They are absolutely wonderful to work with. They helped my wife and I find our dream home during this crazy home buying time. Its like having a friend on the aEURoeinsideaEUR? that is working for you. They really care about their clients as well as the community and neighborhood you live in. Valerie showed professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity and hard work. It was very much appreciated. She is detail oriented, honest, good with people and very knowledgeable of the market.

ZillowVERIFIEDVal is amazing. I'm a first time home buyer who was doing this all alone, and I'm so grateful I had Val to guide me and answer all my questions. She had so much knowledge about the process, was very persistent with getting any responses we needed from anyone, and has great communication. As a teacher I also loved her hometown hero program!!

ZillowVERIFIEDChris and Val were great to work with! We found a house that we loved and called Val right away to see if she could show it to us. We got in right away to see it and put an offer in that same night. Because of Vals local knowledge and negotiating skills we found out we got the house the same night! There were a few times where I would get stressed (lets face it, dealing with large amounts of money and home inspections, etc. can be stressful!) and Val was a calm and reassuring voice throughout the whole time. Bonus is you have her husband Chris too so between the two of them you always have someone to help or show up for you. We are so thankful for them and their help getting us into our forever home!

ZillowVERIFIEDVal was AMAZING in helping us find a house. We were coming from out of state and had to quickly find a house in a pretty specific location. Val was patient. Super responsive. Very positive and supportive. And, ultimately a great adviser when we got into making an offer. We cannot say enough about how great the experience was!! Thanks Val.

ZillowVERIFIEDWhen beginning our journey, we took the process very slow. After meeting Val, we instantly felt comfortable and found her knowledge extremely helpful! From the first meeting until the signing of contracts, Val worked tirelessly to ensure we covered all the bases on the selling of our current home and purchasing a new home. Val spent late nights and weekends ensuring our questions were answered throughout the entire process. Val has been EXCEPTIONAL from the moment we met and we would highly recommend Val & Chris Vinson!

ZillowVERIFIEDAfter listing with Val, she quickly had my house sold after it just being on the market for a few days. She was able to get me more than the asking price and handled all of the issues regarding selling my property that still had tenants in it. There were a few bumps in the road due to the buyers having loan issues, but Val was able to negotiate additional terms to put me in a great position in the event the sale fell through! She constantly kept me updated on the entire process and made the sale such a pleasant experience. She has such a great personality!!!! I defiantly plan on using her services again and HIGHLY recommend her! I'd give her more than 5 stars if I could. She is THE BEST!!!! Thanks Val!!!!!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDVal was my listing agent and made the process of selling our home extremely easy and efficient. She has all the qualities you want in an agentaEUR| knows how to read the market and help price your house right, knows how to manage expectations, and keeps the communication going. She was always quick to respond to my questions and guided me every step the process. Our home sold in two days with seven offers and we closed in 23 days! You will not go wrong with Val and Chris! They are top notch.

ZillowVERIFIEDWhen we reached out to Val saying aEURoewe love this house and want to buy it and sell oursaEUR? we were really nervous about making such a big decision so quickly. She responded with such confidence and ease and it was infectious. We went from not even looking for a house to buying our dream home and selling our home for 68K over list and I attribute this to Val. I cant say enough great things about her and would recommend her to anyone!

ZillowVERIFIEDIn terms of selecting a realtor theres no other option other than Val and Chris. From the moment I reached out to them communication was prompt and clear. Its extremely apparent that they are in this profession because they actually care about helping people during what can be a stressful process. Being a first time homebuyer there is so much that I never knew, however, I always felt comfortable asking questions because they are extremely approachable. They go above and beyond for their clients while being extremely, kind, patient, and understanding. Their knowledge of real estate and the areas in which they serve is very apparent. I would recommend Val and Chris to any and everyone without hesitation!

Review for Member: Val Vinson
ZillowVERIFIEDThis experience comes from first time home buyers. Our experience started well before we were actually entering the market. On a search of the areas we were looking to potentially buy was a house that was seemIngly perfect. I reached out to the agent listing the house and it was Val and Chris. Although there were parameters set that we could ultimately not meet (pre-qualification), we received guidance as to when to enter the market and steps needed to take to become buyers in a competitive market. From that moment on, we knew they were very pleasant because they werent working for us yet and still took the time to speak with us. Val and Chris are absolutely friendly, very genuine, and down to earth people. Their experienced negotiation tactics were used to help us secure an absolutely beautiful house. Mind you as a first time home buying couple, my fiancA(C) and I were able to secure the house (third house we toured) and first offer submitted and accepted out of our entire buying experience in a very competitive market. If you are looking for a real estate agent for you, look no further. A search of homes meeting your criterium within your financial parameters will be set up. Since Val and Chris operate as a team they have almost open availability, and will work to secure your own dream house like they did for us almost 24/7. We would absolutely recommend Val and Chris for any buyer and seller as they work just as hard to find a house as they will selling yours.

She was always available to answer questions I had (and I had a lot !) and helped me find the perfect place. Val and Chris gave superior recommendations on all people involved to get me to closing which made the experience as stress free as possible . I highly recommend using Val and Chris!

She along with her husband Chris are not only hard working and knowledgeable.. they are very sweet, kind and caring. They will really work in your best interest. Five stars is not enough .. highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIEDJust sold our house in New Market with Val, the entire transaction went flawlessly. I am a perfectionist and want things done a certain way and Val did not disappoint. I will say the number one thing that Val goes above and beyond with is response time. I could call or text her at anytime and I would always get an immediate response from her. I would definitely recommend Val to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe didn't know any real estate agents so we selected Val and Chris based on the excellent reviews in Zillow. I can personally attest that the glowing reviews contained in Zillow are all true. They quickly set up our search parameters in MLS and we immediately received listings that we were interested in. They were very flexible with showing houses and were able to meet us on our schedule. We were initially looking for houses in the Frederick area but then changed our mind and found a house we liked in Southern MD. Despite the 2 hour drive, Val and Chris were happy to show us houses in other areas. They were extremely responsive and kept us informed of everything going on throughout the entire home buying process. Having a team of 2 Agents that worked as a team was an outstanding experience. Thanks again Val and Chris!

ZillowVERIFIEDI cant even begin to say enough great things about Val and Chris. Just when my husband and I were ready to give up selling our home we contacted them and they were a game changer. They went above and beyond to make our house look beautiful before listing and to ensure we would find a buyer who loved it as much as us. I wouldnt ever trust anyone else to sell my home and will continue to shout their praises to anyone who will listen! So if your looking for knowledgeable, kind and compassionate realtors, Val and Chris are your team ??

ZillowVERIFIEDWe hit the jackpot with Val!! I was dreading the process of selling our house knowing how much work it would be. Val was very knowledgeable and able to come up with a realistic time frame for the sale. She had so many insights on what would make our house sell and suggestions for how to accommodate viewings with me working from home. She was very prompt in answering my list of daily questions. We had showings lined up within an hour of putting our house on the market! Within 3 days we had so many offers, it was hard to keep track. And then Val was able to guide us through which offer to select. I know the housing market is hot right now but credit needs to be given to Val for the quick sale. There were other homes in the area that are exactly like ours that sold for market value. Our home sold way above our asking price and we were able to successfully get a rent back agreement. It was important for my husband and I to have a reliable realtor that e could put all our trust in to get this house sold- quickly! Thanks Val for everything!

ZillowVERIFIEDI really don't have enough kind words to say about Val and what a great experience it was working with her. We started this process a little unsure about listing the house at all, but she was so patient and understanding. She presented us with facts from all angles and we never felt pressured - in fact, I'd say we became fast friends and trust was immediately formed. She even recommended a realtor (who we also ended up loving) to help us in our out-of-state house search. Once we decided we did want to list, the house was on the market in just a few short days, under contract by the end of the weekend AND 50K over asking price! You really can't ask for a better experience than that :)

Review for Member: Val Vinson
ZillowVERIFIEDChris and Val define teamwork. These two helped me sell my home and buy a new one in less than 2 months from me reaching out as an inquiry. Their round the clock professionalism and availability, as well as a customer's best-interest focus, did not seem difficult for two such individuals who naturally just want to help facilitate this process for others. Knowledge on the areas, market insight and trends, seemed hand in hand with their top notch negotiation skills and contract detail awareness. They helped me get those magic numbers that I wanted for both selling my starter home and purchasing my new dream home. Being a contingent sale was tricky (to me) but Val and Chris stayed on top of every deadline and involved party. I highly recommend working with them because who would want any less than a smooth and perfect process during a time that is suposed to be stressful!

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time homebuyer, Val and Chris provided me with so much valuable insight and assistance in purchasing my home. They were attentive and always ready to chat and work together - whether it was seeing a new potential home on short notice, negotiating a sale price, or signing the closing documents. Most importantly, I always felt that they had my best interests in mind - in my experience with my friends, so many of them felt that their realtor was more focused on just making a sell rather than making sure the home was right for their client. With Val, I didnt have to worry about that - she was 100% focused on making sure the home was right for me. As far as a home buying process goes, it was as smooth, quick, and easy as can be. I cant recommend this team enough.

I believe this had more to do with them than just plain ole good luck. I wasnt expecting to have her help staging the house to help it show but thats what we got. I wasnt expecting to have her have our interest in the negotiations every step of the way but thats what we got. Well be coming back to them when we decide to buy again - you should too!

I trusted her with every decision and knew she would do what was best. I cant wait to use her again in the future. I am grateful for the experience and meeting Val!
