Kathy is an amazing agent

Kathy is an amazing agent. She is very detail-oriented and stays on top of things, not like one of those big-name firms who don't know you personally. She is a real problem-solver and was very innovative in marketing our penthouse property overlooking the Potomac. She is tenacious as a bulldog and has clearly learned a great deal during her 27+ years in the business. Our property was in the MLS for just one day and we got what we we're asking.

We have used Kathy both to sell and buy a house. She is, bar none, the best realtor we have ever worked with. Her knowledge of the market, and expertise with the process from soup to nuts is unparalleled. You cannot find a more responsive team anywhere.

Kathy was wonderful! She was wonderful to work with and a wonderful representative of our needs throughout the process of selling our home. It was a roller coaster for us as we sold our home and made plans to move to another state. She supported us the entire way with all she had to do to get our house ready for the market. Her experience, knowledge, and commitment to us were immeasurable! We feel so fortunate that she worked with us.

I interviewed 6 agents . I chose Kathy Fong

I interviewed 6 real estate agents before settling on Kathy. From the first meeting, I immediately connected with Kathy. She is an amazing person. However, the reason I selected her was experience, expertise and network. Kathy has over 25 years experience, with focus on the Washington Metro area. For me it was a big plus that she was local to my neighborhood. She truly understood what buyers in my zip code were looking for. Beyond her experience, I chose Kathy for her staging expertise. She is an expert at identifying the right upgrades and improvements for obtaining the target price. We worked directly with her service providers to quickly (and painlessly) make these upgrades which including re-doing kitchen floor, painting and new carpeting. Her recommended providers were professional and great value. Once these basics were done, Kathy did an amazing job in staging our house. She has incredible eye for design - in fact could be a professional interior designer if she ever gave up real estate. She was able to use most of our pieces and had additional pieces readily available. She gave great advice and guidance regarding how to prepare the house for showings, open houses and photos. They were practical, actionable and definitely helped reinforce the "feel" of the house, but most importantly our selling points. Our house looked incredible on-line and in person. Lastly, Kathy's network within the Metro Washington area real-estate professionals is invaluable. Based on her personal reputation, as well as history of marketing incredible houses, Kathy is able to bring the right buyer agents to open house and showings. The bottom line is we were able to obtain an offer above listing within 3 days of putting our house on the market. We closed 30 days later. The results speak for themselves. Throughout the process Kathy (and her team) were professional, accessible and client-focused.

Kathleen and her team  are amazing!

Kathleen and her team are amazing!

Kathleen and her team at Shepard and Fong are amazing! My husband and I decided to sell our condo in Virginia after our renter decided to move out. We live in Alaska and were dreading dealing with the sale and the multiple trips it might take out there. A friend of ours recommended Kathy and Paul and as soon as we spoke to them on the phone we knew we were in good hands! They immediately started getting ready for the sale, and as soon as our renter moved out, repairs and upgrades were quickly made, staging furniture was in place, and it was on the market. We got two full price offers within two days of the open house, closed on it a month later, and never had to make a trip to Virginia! W-O-W! During the entire process their communication with us was above and beyond all expectations. They responded right away to any questions we had and always kept us informed. They really know the market and how to get a place to sell and we loved Kathy's no-nonsense style! I HIGHLY recommend Shepard and Fong!

When someone knows the market, why use anyone else?

When someone knows the market, why use anyone else?

We have purchased and sold several homes with Kathy over the years. She is simply the greatest, a true professional, with total integrity and impeccable customer/client service. I would strongly recommend Kathy for anyone seeking to purchase or sell a home in the Northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC area. If you need to make it happen, Kathy will make it happen for you.
