Knowledge, experience and excellence can't be beat.

Last year, we wanted to downsize from our Vienna home and move to a waterfront condo in Reston. We also sold a rundown investment property and purchased another upscale investment property using a 1031 exchange. John sold our Vienna house and our investment property in a very short period of time and in both cases, the contracts we signed were both much higher than we ever thought we would get. John helped us find our new condo in Reston and used his experience to ensure that we won the bidding war over other prospective buyers without needing to increase our offer. Finally, John used his vast realtor knowledge to make the buying of another investment property using the 1031 exchange very simple and quick. What we thought was going to be a stressful period, was actually quite simple thanks to John. John is absolutely the best!

John goes above and beyond to champion, protect and keep his clients informed.

We have known John since he was recommended to us almost 20 years ago when moving from the west coast to Fairfax county. At that time he worked tirelessly to have multiple houses for us to see on the few house hunting trips we were able to make. He educated us on the plusses and minuses of the various communities and ultimately found us our dream home in Great Falls where we lived for almost 18 years. As empty nesters, we called John up a couple of years ago telling him we were just thinking of maybe moving to a house with less upkeep, but we weren't sure. We were clear to him that we were not ready to make a commitment right then but just wanted to start exploring options. He told us at that time that he understood and that it might be a couple of years before we were ready to make the decision, but he still worked as hard for us as if we were ready to move that day. Fast forward almost two years exactly and John helped us find our new dream home in Leesburg. He was great throughout the process and handles all the things that add stress to the process. He and Kim also handled the sale of our Great Falls home - again handling all the tough parts so that the closing was seamless to us - and he got us well more than we thought we would get. We can't recommend John and his team enough!

John and his team are pros and I felt extremely well taken care of from the first conversation through closing. This was my third real estate transaction with the John Stacey team. I strongly recommend!
