Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working with Marnie as the listing agent for my father's home in Reston, VA on Lake Thoreau. She did a fabulous job marketing the property. Resourceful, pragmatic, a great communicator, professional, and just a great person to work with. She staged the home beautifully and was patient during a shift in the market. The entire process was seamless. I would highly recommend Marnie for buying or selling your next home. You are in great hands.

We recently purchased a home and sold a home through Marnie and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. Marnie is a personable and professional Realtor that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home in Northern Virginia. Marnie gave us some great advice that helped get top dollar for our home, which ended up selling in one day for full price! She was also very helpful in navigating the pros and cons of purchasing a new home in a competitive market. I consider Marnie to be a trusted advisor that has her client’s best interests in mind throughout the buying a selling process. She’s truly a joy to work with!

Marnie and team - really everyone that helped us with our home buying experience were thorough, diligent, warm and essential to making the purchase of our first house an easy, fun, and exciting experience. Marnie has a deep understanding of the Reston area, and helped us find the best first house we could have asked for!

Marnie's experience as a realtor showed from the moment we met her. She is very professional and very detailed in the entire process of listing the house. She is very practical and never forced upon us her opinions. She presented us with different options regarding listing date, price, staging and gave her opinion only when asked. She always kept her appointments and returned our calls and messages promptly. It was a very pleasant experience working with Marnie. She took care of the safety and health regulations during the COVID times and made us feel safe. We liked her confidence in her area of expertise and that made us comfortable and put us at ease working with her. I definitely recommend Marnie to anyone who wants to list their home. We look forward to her help in buying our next home.

Marnie puts the "Real" in Realtor! And the "Help" in Helpful! I could not have done this without her. Not only did she recommend needed updates and color schemes for my, she found contractors and service providers to do the work at great prices! And if that were not enough, she also picked out (and ordered!) needed appliances for the kitchen! When it came time to list, Marnie was outstanding at doing market research and managing expectations. With her great negotiating skills, I was able to get an offer that was very close to asking price, for a that had fewer updates compared to similar properties. Anyone looking to buy or sell a home would be lucky to have Marnie Schaar’s experience, integrity, and work ethic in their corner.

Our experience with Marnie and her team have been simply amazing. She has been very patient and helpful, and we felt that she really cares about us getting the right home rather than making her sale. Marnie has been exceptionally professional in every direction yet very personable that we felt like we were hanging out with our good friend whenever we had meetings with her. We never knew we could have this much enjoyable experience with a realtor. She is just very sincere and an honest person who would go miles to make things happen for her clients. Thanks Marnie!

We loved working with Marnie! We were moving to VA from across the country and had only a few days to work with her while on our house hunting trip. She blocked out the time to work with us and we felt like we had her full focus for those days. Marnie was able to pinpoint what we were looking for and lead us in the right direction. She really took the time to explain each part of the process and paperwork given that some of the VA real estate procedures are different that what we had previously gone through. We highly recommend Marnie!

I absolutely recommend Marnie! She has been our realtor for over 8 years and has always navigated our tricky moves smoothly. Her and Margo have always gone above and beyond to meet our family's needs. They both showed unwavering patience and were determined to get us into a home that was just right for us. What a wonderful team to have on your side! If you're looking for someone who has a great feel for the area and an amazing insight, look no further.

Marnie was recommended to us by friends who had used her services before, and she far exceeded our high expectations. When the unthinkable happened, and the house we were about to buy was found to have some major mold problems, Marnie helped us get out of the deal and found us a new place one that almost perfectly matched our needs and expectations in less than 5 days. She is terrific.

I absolutely recommend Margo! Her and Marnie have always gone above and beyond to meet our family's needs. They both showed unwavering patience and were determined to get us into a home that was just right for us. What a wonderful team to have on your side!
