I hired Lisa on the spot after meeting her and I can tell you she will be my realtor for life after helping me both buy and sell a home.Notes on buying a home: Lisa always made us feel like we were her only clients even though I know she has many others. She showed us more than a dozen houses before we found the one we liked and never got frustrated by our last minute showing requests or any of our questions. She knows a lot about costs for certain projects and typical floor plans in neighborhoods which was incredibly helpful. She gave us professional guidance on how to make our offer more attractive than other buyers (we ended up getting the home we wanted for less than the top bidder because of the way we packaged our offer!) Lisa also had great contractor and moving recommendations - a one stop shop!Notes on selling a home: Lisa made us feel confident in how to price our home so that we could get what we asked for (and with her expertise, we ended up getting more!) You can tell her team is passionate about selling your property. They pay for staging and pictures and also make a website of your home with a virtual tour. Also had us do things like write a story about the memories we had in our home to display during showings -- different, but I believe very impactful.All in all, I cant say enough positive things about the experience with Lisa and her team. They gave more than I ever good have expected in terms of professionalism and dedication.
We recently purchased our first home in DC and we could not have worked with a better realtor and team. First, working with Lisa was beyond easy and we could not have been happier with our decision to work with The Chrissy and Lisa Team. Lisa is incredibly knowledgeable of the market and process. If we had any questions or concerns, I would call or text her and she would call or text right back. What I love about Lisa is her honesty. She would tell us like it is and if she felt she needed to talk us through something, she did. We fully trusted her advise and comments / concerns. She truly listened to us and guided us through the entire process. From looking at new homes to submitting our mortgage application. 5 star service all around.We are now living our best DC life in a beautiful new condo with the most amazing views. And for that.... we are so very thankful. We highly recommend Lisa and her team. Highly recommend them!Thank you Lisa and team... youre simply the best.Happy new DC homeowners and your friends,Frank & Jamie
My husband and I cannot say enough good things about working with Lisa and the whole team at Chrissy and Lisa. We are incredibly happy with our new home and the sale of our prior home. Lisa is incredibly professional and personable. She found us the perfect home and sold our old home very quickly. All the transactions and negotiations went very smoothly. Thank you again, Lisa!
Chrissy helped my husband and I both purchase a new home and sell our previous one. The process took about four months and during that time Chrissy and her team did all they could to make the process of buying and selling smooth and easy. We love r new place and feel like we received a great price for our old home. Would definitely recommend Chrissy and Lisa!
I worked with Lisa to purchase my first home in DC, to sell that home 12 yrs later, and to buy my current home 5 months ago (3 blocks away from the first home). Lisa goes above and beyond to get to know her clients, and works tirelessly to meet their needs. She is straightforward and tells it like it which, in my case, meant not always telling me what I wanted to hear about certain neighborhoods and homes that I was considering. In addition to driving me all over the area on multiple weekends when I moved here (13 years ago) to explore different areas, she helped me with a host of other things such as recommending good contractors and neighborhoods that would be best for my lifestyle and interests. And Lisa’s support does not end after the home purchase or sale. Over the years, I have frequently checked with Lisa when I had home-related questions or needed advice. Lisa’s recommendation is the reason why I chose my current neighborhood and I could not be happier. She is the best in the business and I could not imagine working with anyone else.
Lisa was wonderful to work with! As a first-time home (condo) buyer, Lisa and her team helped me through every step in the process, and Lisa was very knowledgeable about the specific needs and challenges of purchasing a condo in D.C. Not only did she help make me feel comfortable throughout the journey -- from starting my search through closing day -- she also helped me find the perfect space that meets my needs and budget. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much Lisa for helping us find the perfect house for our family. Lisa gave us great advice on where to look, what the good fits for our need were, and was straight with us about what we needed to do to get a house in the very competitive market we were looking at. I would highly recommended working with Lisa and her team if you are looking for a home.
I worked with Chrissy and she blew away my expectations every step of the way throughout the home buying process. I randomly met her through Zillow and was a bit skeptical at first with working with someone who I didnt know before, but she built instant trust and I chose to work with her over some other realtor friends of mine. She listened to me and understood what type of home I wanted and what location. She eventually helped me find my ideal home, negotiated and won my offer over 3 other bidders, and then she even saved me a few hundred dollars at closing. I cannot recommend her enough!!
We recently decided to sell our condo in Arlington and listed it with Chrissy and Lisa. They did an amazing job staging and selling the condo for top dollar in less than a week. If you are selling a home or investment property I would definitely give them a call. They are absolutely amazing to work with.
Lisa could not have been more professional, helpful and responsive. She found just the perfect house and worked with the owners and us for a flawless transaction. In addition, she always has a smile and is quick to answer any and all questions. If she doesn’t know the answer, she’ll find it! A real pro.
Chrissy and Lisa are both very experienced, kind and professional. They explained everything about buying a home to us and were patient and understanding. We never felt pressured. Thanks to them we were able to purchase our dream home.
Chrissy and Lisa get the job done in Virginia.We lost our house to a flood in 2019.Lisa showed us so MANY rental houses and we were quickly in a wonderful home.In 2020, we were ready to buy - and Lisa helped us find a FOREVER home. There were unique challenges: the buyer didnt want to use a realtor, so Lisa spent time explaining how he would get his # and we were paying for her services.Home buying is so, so stressful. Keep calm, call Chrissy & LIsa, and carry on.
Lisa helped me through a tough time of selling a family home during COVID. She advised me on things to fix, replace, and update so the home would show better. It was difficult for her to get comps, have an open house, and get people in to see it because of the quarantine. She took professional pictures of everything and what she posted was stupendous!. I had offers in the first day and signed a contract on Day 4. I cant say enough good things about this team. I was kept in the loop all along the way. My home would not have pulled as much nor sold as quickly without her expertise. Hooray for Chrissy and Lisa and the team that backs them. I cant say enough good things about them!
Nick helped me buy a condo in summer 2020. He is passionate about his work, very patient and always response fast. I recommend Nick to other first time home buyers!
Lisa was fabulous to work with to buy a home nearby. Lisa was responsive and had many ideas based on her experience that made our purchase and the whole process easy and fast.
Lisa DuBois is a true professional who has her finger on the pulse of the market, especially the Lake Barcroft area. She and her team staged my home quickly, communicated all processes clearly, had my house under contract within days! I have considerable respect for Lisa and the team, and recommend them without hesitation.
Lisa is simply amazing. She sold our first house for us in quick fashion -- having staged it and really worked the open house that she set up. Within a week of listing the house, wed found our buyer - thanks to Lisas amazing follow-through.In addition to being an amazing seller, shes also helped two of our friends purchase their first homes. She knows exactly how to help new buyers navigate the system, explaining the details along the way and making sure it doesnt become too overwhelming.Quite simply - shes amazing.
We recently sold our home in the Pinecrest section of Alexandria. We interviewed four agents--including one that specialized in Pinecrest and another that had been our realtor before--and despite this went with Lisa Dubois after her initial fantastic impression. From the start she was direct with us, knew exactly the right approach for marketing the home, and was true to her word on all that she said she would do. But where she truly outshined was when it came to the negotiations. We did receive multiple offers and it was clear to us that Lisa was masterful at working the situation to our maximum advantage as sellers. To top it off, we were selling the house from a distance and Lisa ensured that the house was always presentable and even helped arrange the final repairs that were required by the contract. All in all, she and her team were absolutely terrific! We highly recommend her and all of the Chrissy-Lisa team.Larry and Heidi Lynn
I always said that I would not do business with a friend, but that Lisa is the exception. This spring, with COVID, we decided to take the risk to try to sell our house and buy our dream house. Lisa and Chrissy and their team made that happen. The entire experience, including the challenges with new Covid protocols, was amazing. I would never buy or sell a house without them. They are trusted advisors, they work incredibly hard for their clients, they know the market better than anyone else and you will not regret for one second working with them! They are the absolute best!
Chrissy is the best realtor! She helped me navigate my home purchase and sale with ease. She works to get her clients the best price on both ends of the deal. She is knowledgeable and an invaluable resource with any needed recommendations for home services. She gets to know her clients personally and cultivates trusted relationships!
Chrissy is a super realtor! Always upbeat and calm, regardless of how frenetic the process gets, but also patient about waiting until my perfect place came on the market. I recommend her highly. Within 1-2 outings, she knew exactly what I was looking for, and even helped me find a rental while I waited four months for the right place to open up. She was generous with her time when i needed it, super responsive when we had to move quickly, and a font of knowledge about useful contacts.
Chrissy is awesome! She made the process much smoother and less stressful than we were expecting. With her help and understanding in what we were looking for, and after sending us numerous great options, we were recommended a perfect home, and much quicker than we could have anticipated. We were also out of the country for much of the process, but Chrissy was still able to quickly work through negotiations and closing without a hitch. Cant recommend her enough!
Last Fall my husband and I stumbled on our dream house right before it was about to hit the market. At that particular time, we had absolutely no intention of selling our house or attempting to purchase another one. On a whim I contacted Chrissy O’Donnell from the Chrissy & Lisa Team to get an assessment to see if this was something we could actually pull-off. Firstly, Chrissy is a consummate professional – always on time, gives you her undivided attention, is honest and knowledgeable. She was able to tell us what we needed to do in order to get our house ready to sell, and made it happen with her own contracting team stat. It is a stressful process; Chrissy was there through it all, fielding all of our questions, keeping us calm – my husband and I joked that she must not sleep! All this said, we received multiple offers on our house and was able to purchase the home that started all of this, 100% could not have done this without Chrissy’s help. The Chrissy & Lisa Team – truly the best of the best!
Lisa is such a terrific real estate agent! We’ve referred her to several friends and she’s always done a terrific job with their home purchases. In addition, she is a wealth of information if you are looking for strong referrals for anything home maintenance related - contractors, plumbers, electricians, etc. And always interested in discussing new ideas about housing, repairs, and local markets.
I can not recommend this team enough if you are looking for or trying to sell a property. They are great to work with; personable, professional, caring and attentive to the smallest detail. The have a great support team as well so even the smallest of things are taken care of. If you are looking to buy or sell, this is the team for you!
We have known Lisa for several years and she has always been quick with helpful responses and has been proven to be there for our needs. Lisa is quick with recommendations for contractors or other workers when asked. Not only is she our realtor, she is our friend and continues to be there for us even years after our home purchase.
Lisa is a gem of a Real Estate agent, she will get to know you and understand your desires in a home. One of the best around! They made it really simple and easy overall to buy our first home.
The Chrissy and Lisa Team are exceptionally knowledgeable of all neighborhoods throughout the DMV. Their focus is always on the needs of their clients, whom they get to know on a personal level to better understand their desires and needs as buyers and sellers. Each team member has extensive knowledge of real estate enabling them to answer questions before their clients even think of the questions to ask. If you’re looking for a real estate agent who will work tirelessly on your behalf, and treat you just as they would a family member, then your search is over.
The best real estate team in town! The relationship doesnt stop when they have smoothly completed your real estate transaction, but is an ongoing one provided support and answer even the silliest of questions for you. I am very lucky to have found them and have referred many people to them through the years.
Lisa simultaneously sold our house in Arlington and then helped us buy a house in Falls Church. The timing and paperwork were very complicated and it went off without a hitch. I would highly recommend using their team.
Chrissy and Lisa really took their time until we were feeling that that was the place we wanted to live in.They know very well what to suggest and they are not pushy at all.Really reccomend them if you looking for real estate agents.
These folks are perennial students of their profession at the top of their class. Good service is just the price of admission in any endeavor - Chrissy and Lisa take it to the next level with the extreme competence, knowledge and skills required to give you complete confidence that the deal isnt just complete, but that the deal was done right and in the best way possible.
Always friendly and knowledgeable! Best service, they go out of their way to get the job done!
WOW. Lisas analysis of the market was SPOT ON. We received over 6 offers within 24 hours of the open house. Sold for more money than we imagined. THANK YOU!!!!
