If you're looking for an all around amazing real estate professional who will keep you informed, organized, and get you through the home buying process with minimal headache, you need to call Josh Morimoto. I can honestly say we got our dream house in large part because of Josh.
Informative: From day one, Josh was very attentive and communicative, giving us updates on many details we didn't even know we should be tracking, providing solutions to roadblocks and keeping everyone on the same page. We aren't home buying experts, but Josh was so informative about the process you might start to believe you are an expert.
Organized: Josh implemented a system for keeping all parties on the same page, updating and distributing a 33-step milestone tracking document which was absolutely invaluable throughout the process.
Negotiator: When our inspector found some issues with the home, Josh was able to negotiate with the seller to accommodate us on virtually every single item, 4 days ahead of schedule. This was all after he assisted in getting us a below market price contract on the house.
Efficient: Many things impressed us about Josh, but one of the most impressive feats was how he got us from showing to closing in 22 days! You read that correctly. We had a very narrow window of time to manage exiting a rental situation and getting into our new home, so timing was critical. When our lender was dragging their feet and saying they needed weeks to complete Closing Documents, Josh was able to motivate them to get it done within a week. I would not be surprised if they tried to recruit him for themselves to enhance productivity.
Lastly, Josh just seems like a genuinely good person who looks out for the interest of his clients. He was contracted to help us buy a house, but he also assisted us in finding replacement renters so we could exit our existing lease early despite having no real incentive to do so. It really is hard to overstate just how amazing Josh was, and I encourage you to find out for yourself if you want to elevate your home buying experience.

I would recommned Deb and Roe highly since they accomplished getting the house sold well past the end of the normal sales season, and in spite of working with non-motivated sellers who showed no flexibilty on discuss price. Obviously, this did not make their job any easier but they didn't kick us to the curb but kept on actively trying to sell the property. The final result was a sale price that was acceptable and a good working relationship with Deb and Rpe throughout the process.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Roe Sommer and Deb McLoughlin when selling our home. We were impressed by their personal approach, professionalism, attention to detail and hard work. They were always available to answer our questions and provide guidance and support. We felt like they had our best interests in mind. Roe and Deb were extremely helpful throughout the entire process, keeping us informed about every aspect all the way up to closing. Their knowledge and experience made the entire sale process less stressful. We received multiple offers above listing price within the first two days. We can’t say enough wonderful things about the McLoughlin & Sommer Team and we highly recommend them if you are in the market for an exceptional Realtor.

The bottom line up front is that Deb and Roe are an outstanding team - we were extraordinarily lucky to have them as our agents and we would fully endorse them for any real estate needs.
After meeting with Deb and Roe, they worked together to understand our wants and needs. They worked with us to ensure we arrived at a good decision to build a new home. After signing a contract to build a new house - in which we had to go in with a contingent offer - we knew we had to get to work to list our property and get it sold quickly. This is a stressful situation, but Deb and Roe walked us through the entire process to put us at ease. They brought research material to the table to enable us to make an informed decision on the right price point to list our property. They answered all of our questions, ensured we had a solid understanding, and never pushed us in one direction or another. With the right price point, a great marketing plan, friendly staging advice, open houses, and consistent communication, we were able to receive two offers and close on our property in a timely fashion. With their expert guidance, friendly demeanor, and positive focus, Carrie and I were able to focus on actually enjoying the entire process - not stressing over it.
Carrie and I also want to thank Deb and Roe for helping us overcome an adventurous closing experience. They both came to our closing while the buyers agent did not. Despite several issues (from the buyers perspective) on the home inspection, Deb and Roe were able to tactfully explain the contractual obligations of the buyer and seller, articulate the compromises that Carrie and I made to meet their concerns. Deb and Roe both professionally, but firmly, explained to the buyers that we would not be making any more concessions. The closing date was not the negotiation table - and Deb and Roe diffused this situation in such a fashion that we could press forward and finish the closing process.
They are truly a unique tandem and we cannot imagine going through this process without this team. Thank you so much!

Josh is one of the best! I have closed dozens of transactions with him, and he goes above and beyond for his clients. He negotiates well and is eager to work creatively to keep deals together. His effort and dedication has been the same whether his client was buying an inexpensive foreclosure or a million dollar beach home. I highly recommend him!

I cant say enough good things about Roe Sommer but I will try. She has more integrity than any other professional I have met. It doesnt matter how big or small the task at hand is she gives it 150%, pedal to metal all the way. Rapid response and here’s the kicker.....she actually listens to you as opposed to pushing another agenda. I would never use anyone else for my real estate transactions!

I truly believe that we would not have ended up in our dream first home if not for Amy’s extreme dedication and proactive nature on behalf of her clients. She immediately educated us on the current market and things to consider before even putting an offer in and was always there as a sounding board or to provide detailed answered to our questions. She wasted no time getting our offer in and making sure we understood everything from there on out. It was as seamless and stress-free as it possibly could have been thanks to her involvement. We could not be happier with our home, the experience and our realtor who made it possible!!

I have known Sandy for many years now. She have been a true asset in the Real Estate dealings of both my parents and myself. She most recently helped my husband and I sell our previous home and purchase our current home. I must say she worked tirelessly and patiently with me until I found the house I loved. I knew where I wanted to move and basically what I wanted. Sandy never pushed and was patient with me. until I found exactly what I was hoping for. And she was available any time we needed her or had questions to ask. We had 4 contracts on our house the day before we even took down the "coming soon" sign down and officially had it on the market or had an open house. She also helped us navigate the bidding war and were very pleased with the results.
She also helped my parents sell their townhouse and purchase a condo. And after my father passed and my mother moved on to a senior apt., she handled the renting of her condo and always found wonderful tenants. She was very kind and patient with my parents who were elderly at the time. And, of course, she was again our agent when we sod the condo eventually.
So as you can see we have have many dealings with Sandy and would not have went with her if we had not been satisfied.
Since I did get to know Sandy personally I can testify that she really does want to see you happy with your outcome and will work her hardest to obtain that. Sh3e is knowledgeable in her field and will give you her best. You are in good hands.

This was my first time selling a house. Deb McLoughlin & Roe Sommer Team were excellent through the whole process. They always maintained a professional manner and were clearly determined to help my husband and I get the most value for our townhouse. Roe made sure we understood all of the paperwork we were signing, going through it with both of us. She gave us a timeline of the sale and came through even when we had to slip the dates a little. Both Deb and Roe provided excellent advice on staging our house. They were both present at the open house. The Deb McLoughlin & Roe Sommer Team are excellent! They love what they do and are very knowledgeable about the neighborhood. We received 8 offers on our house and sold for more than we expected! I highly recommend them for selling your house.

Roe was absolutely incredible to work with. My Husband and I were renters, looking for a new rental until we're ready to buy. We're selective, on a tight budget, and we come with a dog -- not an easy combination to work with when renting. Roe must have let us drag her through every Northern Virginia zip code looking for the right place, and she did it all with a smile, a fantastic disposition, and a genuine desire to ensure we found the perfect fit. She was relentless in her search, and kept in near-constant contact with us; we always knew the status of our search and any upcoming opportunities to check out a house. She cared for us as renters better than many Agents I've seen treat buyers -- which is noteworthy, considering it's a commission-based career, and rentals have very little return on the time an agent invests, relative to the return on time invested in a home safe/purchase. She made us feel throughout the process as though we were the most important clients in her portfolio, and I don't doubt she treats everyone with such kindness, courtesy, and grace. We wholeheartedly recommend Roe for any of your real estate needs, and hope to work with her again in the future.

My husband and I were immediately struck by the warmth, grace and professionalism of Roe and Deb in their interactions with us. We had several other interviews with other realtors and no one else was as friendly and approachable. We felt our needs were heard immediately.
Roe and Deb did a phenomenal job selling our home. Most of their time was spent in helping us get ready for the sale. Making the home attractive by helping us select the best colors for repainting various rooms, staging for the best look before going live, and assisting in creating a new contemporary look in our kitchen. They both have a wonderful sense of style, design and color which helped transform our older somewhat cluttered 1968 cape cod home into a stylish home that garnered more offers than we ever expected and our home sold in less than a week!!
They are always willing to go the extra mile to find the answer to a question or research information without any hesitation, and always with a smile. They are the BEST! I would and will recommend them to anyone looking for a home. They have listened to us in the best and worst of moods as is the case in selling a home. We thank them for their patience, sensitivity and caring in all their hard work on our behalf!

I would highly recommend Roe Sommer and Deb McLoughlin to anyone looking to sell or buy a new home. They clearly walked us though each step of the process and each page of the contract to insure we were comfortable. Additionally, they offered many helpful tips and recommendation in preparing our home for sale as well as always being available to include immediately responding to new potential homes when they pop'd up. Giving us the first shot at making an offer. I have to say that getting 8 offers 2 days after listing our home was beyond my expectations. If I ever need to look to sell or buy again, I will most certainly choose this excellent team.

In 1998 Sandy sold us our home in Countryside, Sterling Va. The sale and experience was so exceptional we decided to ask Sandy to help us sell our home in 2018. She has been selling home and helping buyers as well as sellers in our neighborhood for all this time and we felt she would have the most knowledge about how to sell a home in Sterling and she proved it. She is very easy to work with and helped us decide on items to update to ensure maximum selling price for our home. She walked us thru the whole process and was always available for any questions. She offered to help in any way possible as we were moving out of the area - and she delivered on that offer-many times.
She is a fountain of knowledge relating to home services. She helped us fine vendors to update items thruout our home. She also helped in providing information on moving services.
Sandy kept us updated with the market and all the homes like ours that were for sale and what they had sold for and most importantly they sold for what they sold for.
She has a realistic eye on the market and advised us on the manner to update our home to maximize our return for the investment. This helped us ensure our home was ready for sale and priced appropriately for a quick sale. Her practical approach combined with her wealth of knowledge, experience and most importantly support thruout the process helped us know that we were using the right Real Estate agent.
I highly recommend Sandy as your next Realtor for buying or selling your home.
