Testimonials:

Dec 2006 

As a former realtor, I guess I have higher expectations than most for my own real estate agent.  That's why I chose Dave King as my Realtor.  I definitely wanted someone who is smart, can think on his/her feet, and has business savvy without being over-the-top or obnoxious. He/she must be able to present opposing ideas and suggestions in a way that is well-received by a strong-headed client like me, and he/she must be very knowledgeable in areas such as location and neighborhoods, as well as real estate laws and transactions.  The breadth of his/her knowledge must also span across areas involving construction standards and flaws, systems equipment and how they operate, and he/she must have a network of reputable third-party contractors at their fingertips.  Above all else, he/she must be ethical, accountable, responsible, and highly entertaining with a great sense of humor.  This describes Dave King.  I highly recommend him for your all of your real estate transactions.

Hi Dave,

I just want to say thank you.  Thank you for helping make my "dreamhome" a reality.  After moving here from out of state, it took me a year and a half to recover from sticker shock. 

When I finally decided that it was time to bite the bullet and get settled, at the advice of a friend, I enlisted your help in my buying process.  From the moment we had our first meeting at Greenberry's you put my mind at ease and the apprehension began to turn into excitement. 

As you know, I had a lot on my plate when I first started looking.  Illness in the family, a new job, and such.  Searching for a new home would normally add tons of stress.  However, your expertise, patience, and "house-side" manner, made this whole process simple and expedient.  You handled every detail, leaving me only the packing to do.  Within the time period of our first coffee at Greenberry's to the day we closed in Vienna, I not only acquired the house of my dreams, but also a good friend.  I now cherish both.

Thank you Dave,

Sue - Belmont Greene - Ashburn

"Dave King, Justine and the Virginia Dream Team did a great job in helping us find that perfect home in Vienna. They not only represented OUR interests throughout the process but coordinated all the inspections, helped us through the closing and even went so far as to schedule carpet cleaners and painters for us!  Find a house online, but use this team to close on a home!

Dave and Justine:

It's been a crazy period for us and I regret not responding earlier to Justine while I was on the road but I cannot tell you enough how pleased we were with your service and guidance.  Above and Beyond would be how I describe the two of you meeting our expectations.  Thanks so much for helping us secure a great home for Jon Anthony, Patrick and
Barbara..................now if our goods can come in from the diversion to Salalah, we'll get settled!!

See you soon

Dave,
Thanks for helping us find a place to call home. Buying a new home can be difficult for a newly married couple who are new to the area. Dave showed us all of our options. We now have a wonderful place to call home. Dave helped to make becoming a first time home owner a great experience. Thanks for all your help and advice.

We really enjoyed working with Long and Foster and Justine and Dave.
Justine made finding our new home easy and fun. When we decided on the
home Justine found us she made sure we got it and went out of her way to
put us in the best possible position to obtain the home. We told her
what we wanted and she did it....it was that simple. Not only would we
work with Long and Foster (Justine) again but we would recommend them to
our family and friends. They made buying our house an almost stress free
Process. Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks so much for the great service that you provided.  It was evident every time that we talked, met, or emailed that Dave and Justine always had our best interests in mind.  It was clear when we met with the sellers and their Agent that we had the best players/agents on our side.  Your skillful negotiating, breadth of knowledge and experience truely made this a pleasant experience.  If we are ever in the market again we will definitely be looking to you, Justine, and Long & Foster for representation with our sale and our new purchase. Thanks again for your outstanding support.

Dave,
I wanted to thank you for all the hard work and effort you put in for helping me find my first home.  As you know I have dealt with a couple of other agents in the past but you by far have exceeded them all.  You are a true professional and I really appreciate you sticking by me and helping me find this wonderful place.  Its been a long journey.  You have not only been dedicated and sincere during this process but you have also become a good friend.  Thanks for all your help.  I couldnt have done it without you.  And be sure I will be contacting you whenever I decide to sell this place ;).  Thank you.

I already knew Dave and Justine would help me find just the right property since I had already used them as my Realtors before.  As I expected, they kept in touch with me every step of the way and made the process of buying my second home (with them) a dream come true.  I don't hesitate to pass their names along whenever I know someone who is looking for a team of great Realtors!

RE: Services provided by Justine VanEngen and Dave King

Todd and I couldn't have been happier to have Justine and Dave as our realtors, both in buying our new home and selling our previous one. We have had disappointing experiences with past realtors but were glad that we had both Dave and Justine to help us through a very stressful time. While the purchase of our new home was relatively easy, the selling of our previous home had some distinct challenges. There were many times when we were very stressed about the various difficulties but they were always supportive and provided reassurances without being patronizing. We would highly recommend them to anyone who is either buying or selling a home without question. Thank you both!

I wanted to thank you, Dave and Justine for helping us to purchase our new home.  We haven't used many realtors in the past and were leary of them.  Dave and Justine proved us wrong by going out of their way to help us with the
purchase.  I would recommend them because of their patience and their attention to detail.  There were many phone calls and details that needed to be attended to.  We knew that we could trust them to be on top of all of them.  The closing went very smoothly and there were no last minute hitches.

Thank you again for making the purchase of our home plesant from beginning to end.

Dear Dave,

How are you doing?  I am doing great here in Richmond.  I wanted to formally write and thank you for selling my townhouse.  I needed my house to sell in less than two months so I would be able to purchase my dream house.

I knew the odds were against us.  The market was not good at the time.  It was a tricky situation to say the least.  Time demands in your field of work are everything.  You went the extra mile for me.  Your attention to detail is what makes you great at your job!  It is because of your hard work that I am sitting here in Richmond, in my new home.

Thank you for a job well done!

Hi Dave!

Just a little note from the girl from your past....

You are on my mind almost every day.  I just count my blessing for you and Missy and all your help in selling my condo in Reston.  Although, my neighbor Jen is very sorry that I sold. 

I just love my house here in VA Beach.  It is coming along slowly.   Just yesterday I got my computer hooked up.  Anyway so sorry I have not been in touch but will from now on,  I promise.   My phone number here is XXX-XXX-XXXX, If you need to run away for a weekend or something feel free to give me a call,  would love to see you.

Have a great week and say Hi! to Missy for me.... Liz
