Testimonials

We’ve worked with Carmen a number of times as a renter and buyer. Most recently, she helped us buy our first house in Rockville. In all of our interactions with Carmen, she has been incredibly responsive. I can’t imagine someone being more focused on her clients. She worked very hard to help us get the house we wanted. She went so far as to be in regular communication with us even when vacationing with her family out of the country! We had seen the house we ended up purchasing early in our visits to the open house before we started working with Carmen. Several months later, when we began looking seriously with Carmen, this was still on the market, at a reduced price that we thought we could afford. At this point there was another low offer in that the sellers were considering Carmen worked with us to quickly create a proposal that appealed to the sellers while protecting us–in a difficult market, we still ended up getting the house below the asking price in a competitive bid situation. Throughout the entire process, Carmen was there to make sure things moved smoothly. I couldn’t imagine how much more difficult it would have been without her by our side. We have and will continue to recommend Carmen to friends who are looking to buy a house. In this tough market for buyers, Carmen knows the tricks to help you get the house you want!

Luis was very helpful in getting us into the home we wanted, he worked tirelessly before, during, and after the process to ensure that we were happy with our purchase. Luis is very professional, courteous, friendly, and provides excellent advice in purchasing a home for the first-time buyer, and when it came to our business transaction, he handled it as if it was his own. We will highly recommend Luis to anyone.

Michelle deserves a 10-star rating. She goes above and beyond for her clients and I would highly recommend her as a realtor. She listed a condo for me in Oakton, VA that had been a rental property for years. Since I reside in Florida, I was not able to be in the area to meet with and get work done on the property. Michelle went above and beyond what most realtors would do to help me get the property ready to sell. She helped me with scheduling and coordinating, meeting the property, and making sure that everything was done to get the condo show ready. She also hired a professional photographer and provided high-quality photos for them. Michelle has excellent communication skills and kept me up to date throughout the process. She is extremely detail-oriented and is able to keep track of the many nuances and important details of a real estate transaction. She is also knowledgeable about the laws and the process of a real estate transaction. She is also very professional. Real estate transactions can be stressful, and I appreciate that she always was able to remain professional and level-headed in all aspects of the sale of my property. Michelle helped to negotiate a very good price for my condo, and we were able to do a quick close which is what I wanted. Michelle is truly a pleasure to work with and very knowledgeable in her field. Most realtors do not provide the same level of service and have the experience that Michelle has. I highly recommend her both as a buyer's or seller's agent.

Laura is one of the best realtors, so professional and at the same time so friendly. Laura helped me get my first home and made the process a breeze. She helped also my sister get her first home, so we consider her our lucky charm and we gained a friend. Before choosing Laura to be my realtor I met so many others before, but they were either too pushy or not flexible. I never felt like Laura pushed me on the contrary, even though we visited so many places and I was so stressed to get any house, she insisted I should wait for the right one. And was she right? With her help, I found what I exactly had in mind, even better. I have no enough good words to say about Laura, and I feel so lucky to have met her. And I’ve never met a realtor as punctual as Laura, always on time, and even when sometimes I was late for the appointment she always had a smile and never made a big deal. Laura is an angel. I would absolutely recommend her to everyone that I know that’s looking for a house.

Alinda is an excellent realtor, I would highly recommend her. She is patient, professional, and extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of buying a new home. I have purchased a couple of homes with Alinda's assistance and have always felt extremely satisfied with her guidance.

Jasmin assisted my husband and I get our first home. She was very quick to respond to our requests and also was very understanding with what we were looking to buy and the time frame we wanted it to buy.

Laurette is amazing, takes her time, does research and is a joy to work with! I recommend her to anyone looking for a place, it was a joy to work together.

Eric is the ideal agent. While searching for a home, he was patient, responsive, and proactive. When making an offer, he was tenacious, motivated, and decisive in getting us to close. Throughout the whole process, Eric maintained only my interest at heart. His recommendations in settlement company, mortgage company, inspector, and appraiser were flawless and ended in me securing my dream home. Eric is the ideal ally to have in this crazy market. I cannot recommend anyone more highly.

Carmen recently helped us sell our condo and she couldn’t have been more helpful. We live in CA and were selling a condo in Rockville, so we relied on her heavily and she delivered! She helped arrange repairs, staged, and listed the property. She also helped us close remotely. I never traveled back east at all! She was a fierce negotiator in a tough climate and got us a sale quickly while other properties were sitting on the market for months. Carmen is thorough, well-prepared, and fierce. I highly recommend her!

Amazing service! First, she helped me get my townhouse rented, and found the perfect tenants. Then she helped me buy a condo and got a great deal I was not expecting. Amazing! She puts her clients first and results are seen. Definitely will keep her in mind for my next real estate deal!

For several years we looked to buy a home in the DMV with little success. A couple of years ago, we met Laura in an open house for which she was the selling agent. In our brief conversation, we were impressed with her knowledge of the locations and properties we were interested in. She also understood what kind of amenities and communities we wanted, never straying from our desires. Thanks to her, we found places we didn't know about, but that fit our specifications and price points. Laura was always quick to reply to our inquiries and readily available to show homes. In the end, she helped us find a place in our first choice community for a price that was right for us. She treated us not just as customers but as friends. She's stayed in touch, checking on us since the closing of the sale. We enthusiastically recommend Laura if you need to find a home in the DMV.

Jasmin was super helpful through our rental process. She was always available and always responded to my call or texts. I highly recommend her, and we will be working with her when it comes to purchasing our home.

If you’re looking for a professional, knowledgeable, efficient, and personable realtor, then you owe it to yourself to not only call Carmen but to work with the Fontecilla Group. From our very first interaction, Carmen and her team were consistent, thorough, prompt and provided timely guidance. Most importantly, she made us feel comfortable and at ease with every decision. In the end, you’ll feel good about selling your home and even better that the Carmen Fontecilla group was there to guide you through the process.

Working with Michelle was a delight. She was very professional from beginning to end. She is absolutely efficient, hardworking, and very knowledgeable of the business. Great attention to all detail. Her ability to connect with the client is commendable, she is a very good listener and understands quickly the needs of the client. She made the whole process feel like a breeze!

Carmen is a great realtor! She was very responsive, kind, professional and passionate about real estate. I highly recommend her over any other realtor. She sold my condo in less than a week of it and helped me buy a beautiful home. Thank You, Carmen!

I was relocating to the Kensington area and wanted to be in a specific building. We looked at multiple units, strategized, and Michelle went above and beyond to get local intel and help me be knowledgeable and feel confident in my process and final purchase. Anything I do in the future will involve Michelle and I will recommend her to anyone in need.

Hey Eric. Thank you again. I can't thank you enough for everything you did! You made it super easy for us and a good first time buying experience
