H. Qian

 

We are very satisfied with our experience about service that Kirin Realty provided.  Both Leona and Michael are very knowledgeable and friendly.  Especially, they have warm hearts and are ready to help.  They are very considerate and willing to listen to every request and comment.  We are very happy that we had Leona and Michael in our searching for the new home in Virginia.


M. Stites

 

Thank you so very much for all of your specialized and attentive efforts in the sale of my

condominium. Your professional online pictures, marketing cards and sales packets for prospective buyers is truly a testament to your dedication to your profession. Once the contract came in, we were able to go to closing in less than three weeks. It was a pleasure working with you and your team.

We would like to thank you for your diligence and hard work in the sale of our condominium. You showed great understanding of the market dynamics and the legal and business aspects of the transaction. We appreciated your market analysis. Also, and more importantly, real estate is not just about finances and the analysis, but it is often about the emotional ups and downs that correspond to a volatile market.You were very patient and kind in dealing with the ensuing challenges that come with a dynamic market. It was a pleasure getting to know you and working with you.  We wish you both the best in your real estate endeavors.

Leona and Michael just helped us sell our third home and buy our fourth (our second through them).  There's a reason we keep returning to them for our real estate needs.  Their ultimate goal is to make their clients happy.  They guided us through the confusion that comes along with purchasing a short sale home.  They offered advice when we decided to move on from the short sale and look for a second, regular sale home.  When Leona noticed a mistake in the final numbers during settlement, she fought and refused to give up until they finally realized she was right.  We will continue to recommend them to anyone we know who is in search of a top-notch realtor.

P. Phillips

You and Michael make a great team and I feel you have met every need in a high quality way. Your personal attention, the mailings that arrived so often and immediate response to my phone calls, plus your compassionate concern about my welfare has been 'value added' to be certain. You have definitely earned your fee. I must say also that your service has restored my confidence in Real Estate agents and that took some doing. You are a credit to your profession.

Leona helped us find our very first home and we couldn't be happier.  We met her at one of her open houses and we were extremely impressed by her knowledge about the Northern Virginia areas.  As we were first time homebuyers, she educated us in the home purchasing process, and made our purchase extremely efficient and smooth.  She was very prompt, courteous and professional.  We greatly appreciated her quick response and most importantly negotiation skills.  We felt that she had our best interest at heart and was very diligent in meeting our needs.  She was always available for any questions or concerns via phone or email.  We found a home in less than 2 weeks and could not have done it without her help.

 I like the fact that you two team well, were readily available for any questions and concerns.  And mostly, because you really stayed on top of all things to the finest detail.  I couldn’t have asked for a better realty to watch my back!!!!!!

What a relief to have the house sold.  This could not have done successfully and smoothly without your extra efforts, patience and professionalism.  Your help to me is very much appreciated.
 

J. Ambler

Leona & Michael delivered satisfaction through their extensive experience in real estate investing, selling / buying and management. They were very knowledgeable about the Northern Virginia and DC Metro real estate market. Instead of being stressful and frustrating, they made the process an interesting and exciting activity. They were good negotiators at the right times and were willing to go the extra mile to ensure their client's satisfaction.

 J. Lee

 

 “Unlike other real estate agents who exist merely to act as a broker for completing a home purchase or sale transaction in the shortest amount of time possible, Leona is truly a real estate “Consultant” who invests the time to educate and make her clients feel comfortable with the entire process. She is extremely knowledgeable on the topic of real estate and is always able to answer questions quickly and with assertiveness. Additionally, Leona is a skilled negotiator, striving to achieve the best prices on real estate for her clients by taking the time to research comparable properties in the area. She stays on top of providing her clients with updates on the most recent listings of properties that have come onto the market in their areas of interest, without them having to ask continually. Overall, her clients get the attention they need along with an unmatched quality of service. These characteristics greatly increase my confidence in her as a reliable, trustworthy, and incredibly capable individual. I employed Leona for the purchase of my first home and because I was so satisfied with the results, I decided to use her again for the refinance of my home. Leona is truly exceptional.”
 

K. Yang

 

 “I am an experienced real estate investor and have worked with many realtors in the past. Leona's team is the best by far. They truly take professionalism and customer service to the highest level -- putting my interest first, taking time to address my needs and concerns, and negotiating deals tirelessly for me. Their honest opinions, exceptional industry expertise and outstanding work ethics have earned my trust. It's my pleasure to recommend her and her team to everyone I know.”
 

 S. Jao

 

 “Leona is not only my real estate consultant but also my friend. She is very knowledgeable about the local real estate market, keeps customer’s requirements in mind, honest about the pros and cons of the properties she finds, and makes the purchasing process easy and painless. I feel I can trust her for making important decisions.”
 

 M. Chan

 

 “I've worked with Leona in buying condos. She has always been able to put herself in her clients' shoes, i.e., genuinely work for the client's interest. She also has a great sense of urgency in helping her clients.”

Thank you Leona and Michael for all the help!

I was thoroughly satisfied with you and Michael's service and assistance.

J. Gerbino

I really would like to compliment you on being very top notch professionals and providing a very valuable service.

C. Harbison

I wanted to add my thanks for all the help you and Michael provided us this past fall with the sale and purchase of our home. Both Stephanie and I have had limited experience with realtorsand you and Michael are indeed a credit to your profession. Especially with the tightening housing market, you and Michael gave a sustained effort that really helped to get things done. I really appreciated your help with the loan process as well, especially in light of the fact that your help was beyond what most real estate agents are willing or able to provide.

 

You will be the very first people we recommend when we hear of friends or family who might need your services. You may also give potential clients our name and contact info for references if you should find the need.

 

Thanks again for all that you did for us!!
