Description

Full time real estate agent in Marion, West Memphis, and its surroundings in Arkansas. Always take extra care of my buyers and sellers, and referrals, too!

REALTOR®, Marion, Ar.-Rita Fong

Hello, everybody,

My name is Rita Fong and I am a bilingual real estate agent with RE/MAX REAL ESTATE TODAY in Marion, Ar., I speak Chinese (Cantonese) and English.  I joined RE/MAX in February, 2007 and it has been an exciting journey ever since.   I am a dedicated full time real estate agent for my clients in Marion, West Memphis, and Crittenden County in Arkansas.

I was asked many times about my background after I came to the States.  I would like to give you a brief history of mine when I was living in Hong Kong.  I was born and raised in Hong Kong, which is a very fast paced city like Manhattan, New York.  Doesn't it look like New York? 

I went to Roman Catholic school there, and Hong Kong was under the British Government rule until 1997, then it was given back to China.  I was working in travel industry, my clients were all from overseas like the USA, Australia, some also from Europe.  You can say I always work in people business, and very used to multi culture.  With my background of a little bit from the British rule, overseas clients, my own root as a Chinese, I am very diverse, if I do say so myself.  

I work hard for my clients, and I am privileged that I earned their trust to help them with their real estate needs, no matter sell or buy.  I don't treat anyone as a number, real estate is a people business, it takes time to learn about each other, it is a team work.  Getting referral from my clients is a high compliment from them. Go to www.ritafong.remaxarkansas.com   for easy access of home listings and useful links.

Other than working, I love to go to browse antique stores, I don't do it often though.  I enjoy outdoors when time allows.  I like to enjoy a cup of hot tea and some tasty light snacks, got that from my British influence in Hong Kong.   I like to go to bookstores, too.  I am also a CASA volunteer, http://www.crittendencountycasa.org/ It is a non-profit organization to help abused and neglected children, and I am a Court Appointed Special Advocate for the child of my case that I was appointed to.  If you are interested in being a volunteer, please feel free to contact me or visit the website.

Rita Fong's real estate service areas, Marion, Ar.

Other than Marion, West Memphis, Crawfordsville and Crittenden County, I also service Hughes and Horseshoe Lake, Arkansas. 

My specialty is selecting a home that fits my client's needs and criterias by listening to them during our initial conversation, and help them to become a very satisfied home owner.  Communication is what I keep with my clients, and they seemed to appreciate it a lot.  Paying attention to details is what I do for all my clients, I know they depend on me for guidance, and they deserve to have my full attention.

What makes my job so rewarding is when I successfully helped my client through a very tough situation all the way to closing.  Their relief of anxiety, worry is all gone after it is all said and done.  It is priceless to see them smile after going through some unexpected difficult times during the transaction. 

There are times that things happened beyond our control, and it is okay.  The main thing is to solve the problem and move forward.  It is my job to make sure everything is taken care of, so my clients can move on to their next plan in life. 

Words from my Buyers and Sellers (Testimonial)

 

Rita, Thank you for making my first time home buying a wonderful experience!  You are the best!   Felicia Toney

 

Buying a house was something that had never really occurred to us as a necessity.  We were absolutely content to rent our way through the next few years of our lives.  Then life happened unexpectedly.  Much to our surprise, we were going to have our first addition to our family.  Needless to say, our one bedroom townhouse wouldn't cut it. That's when we contacted Rita.  We heard about Rita through a family member who highly recommended her work.  We were on a tight budget and an even tighter schedule, but she did all she could to show us as many options as possible in our short time frame.  We must have seen at least 10 houses within about 2 weeks.  But finally, we found it; the house that fit our needs and budget better than we even dreamed.  All that was left was to do the paperwork, which you would think would be the biggest headache of it all, but thanks to Rita it was an absolute breeze!  From the time we started looking to the day we signed our title it was about 2 months.  That time seemed to fly by with very few worries because of the absolutely amazing job that Rita did!  We would recommend her to anyone looking for an easy-going experience while purchasing a home.   Dustin and Heather High

 

We cannot thank Rita enough for helping us find our amazing home.  She showed us so many houses and worked hard to help us get the right one.  We are so happy!  We have an awesome new house and a friend for life in Rita.  Thanks so much from the bottom of our hearts.     Beth Radick

 

We were recently fortunate enough to sell our house in Hughes, Ark.  We attribute this sale to one of your Realtor, Mrs. Rita Fong.  We would like to take this opportunity to tell both you and RE/MAX how extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and professional that Rita was during the entire process.  We did not, due to Rita's expert experience and patience, experience any concern nor doubt in her professional opinions.  We again want to thank you, RE/MAX and Rita for making this transaction go so smoothly.     Lloyd and Carol Linn

 

 

"My husband and I had been considering moving to Marion for about a year, and finally one Sunday afternoon we decided to drive over to look at open houses since we didn't know any of the realtors in the area. We met Rita Fong at one of the open houses that Re/Max had listed. She was the only realtor we saw out that day AND she was out working with an injured leg. It didn't take long for us to develop a connection with her. This was our first home purchase and we were very nervous, but Rita quickly put us at ease. She was SO kind and approachable . With her injured leg, she led us to house after house that very day! We didn't find the house we wanted that day, so Rita said she would research other listings & email them to us. She sent the email before bedtime that night. It was amazing to me how she deciphered through all the listings in Marion, and after only spending one afternoon with us she knew EXACTLY what we would and wouldn't like. By the en d of the same week, we had arranged a day to tour more houses. We found the house we wanted and 30 days later we closed! She made what most people describe as a stressful situation go as smooth as butter! She was eager to answer all of our questions, and there were many! There were some days that I called her so many times & she was so sweet each time. My family & I are eternally grateful that we met her that day! It has been three months since we moved into our home and Rita continues to check in with us to make sure we are still happy! I'm glad that she does because I actually missed getting to talk to her after closing! I knew that we would find a new home, but I didn't expect to find a new friend.
THANK YOU, RITA FONG! You helped us find our dream home!"   - Blaine, Ashley, & Jackson McCoy, Marion, Ark

 

I have had the opportunity to meet and do business with an exceptionally talented young woman, Rita Fong.  Rita is a really hard working agent for RE/MAX REAL ESTATE TODAY.  When I first met Rita about six months ago, I had the feeling that I had known her all my life.  In my opinion Rita possesses the talents to excel in her field of business.  Her personality and willingness to get the job done is very refreshing.  She has all the confidence in an agent that I expected when I decided to purchase my new home in Marion, Ar.  Rita always goes the extra mile for you.           Carl Woods 6/25/08

 

We were recently transferred to Arkansas, from Northwest Indiana, we had no friends or family to help us make a decision on what would be the best city for our family to relocate.  Marion was one of the locations that we had targeted, I found the Marion RE/MAX website and contacted one of their agents Rita Fong.  Immediately I felt that Rita was knowledgeable of the area and willing to put forth the effort to make sure Marion was the right choice for us.  Her professionalism and organization was evident from the start.  Rita listened to what our family needs were and put together all the information we needed to begin our house search.  Rita took the time to make sure we first felt comfortable with the town and never put any pressure on us to make any decisions we were not ready to.  Rita was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had while making our decision, she was quick to respond to any communications we had and always found us any answers we were looking for.  Once we chose our house, Rita made the negotiations/closing process as seamless as possible.  Rita even took her job further and went with us to help register our son into the Marion school district once we moved down!  We have only positive things to say about Rita and would without a doubt recommend her to anyone, RE/MAX is lucky to have her as an agent and we are lucky to now call her a lifelong friend.                                              

Thank you, Rita.      The Tabler Family

I am truly grateful that one simple inquirey about a home led me to an expert in the Marion housing market.  Rita, thank you for working with me in every step of the home buying process.  Your expertise and diligence was intergral to our settling nicely in a home that meets all of our family needs and desires.
