Testimonials


There are many things I can say about the high quality of service I provide to my home seller and home buyer clients, but probably none would be as credible as testimonials from some of my recent clients themselves.


So please take a moment to read the following testimonials. I hope they indicate my experience and integrity, as well as make it clear how much I enjoy helping people with their real estate needs.   Please visit my ZillowGoogle Business, Facebook Business, or Rated Agent sites to see more reviews! 


"We met Jo Ann as endorsed by Dave Ramsey as an Endorsed Local Provider.  She is prompt and answers all your questions, no matter how small you may think they are.  She was able to assist us in negotiating a mutually agreed upon price of a house we were purchasing, with a difficult selling agent.  She understands the "ins and outs" of the VA loan process.  She is objective while providing sound advice to the requirements we desired in a house and location.  Highly recommend her."


Carl, Fairfax


"Jo Ann was recommended to us by cousins and friends. We used Jo Ann to sell our home back in 2014 and to buy our new home that same year. Jo Ann had our home sold in 4 days, and she was very patient with us as we looked all over Northern Virginia at houses. She knows her stuff. She also helped my mom sell her condo a few years ago as well. Highly recommend."

Elizabeth, Lorton


"Not once but twice!  When I was house hunting in 2008, Jo Ann helped me with every step of the process by providing comps and quickly responding to my myriad questions.  A decade later when I was ready to sell that home and relocate, Jo Ann again provided advice, secured a professional  photographer, created a topnotch sales brochure, and walked me through the potential offers.  We had a solid contract within four days and closed within 30 days.  Plus, she made the process fun.   Highly recommend!"


Gayle, Alexandria


"Jo Ann is a very experienced Property Manager.  She has managed 3 of my properties.  She is very knowledgeable and hard worker.  She would never hesitate to to take care of problems relating to my property even after her official work schedule.  She is very ardent and skilled in her  responsibilities.  I have one hundred percent confidence in her work. She also has good tastes in decorating and showcasing my properties.  I will always recommend her to anyone who is looking for a property manager, because she does her research well enough to get the maximum money.  I wish her well in all her endeavors."


Lesley, Woodbridge


"Jo Ann sold my condo in Burke, VA the first day it was put up for sale on the market! And, it was sold for the asking price!  Prior to the time the condo was offered sale, Jo Ann advised me about how to fix the condo so it would be more attractive and competitive in the market. This included new interior painting and carpet—using expert contractors that Jo Ann knew. They did the work promptly and at reasonable cost."


Ed, Burke


"My wife and I met Jo Ann in 2007 when we she helped us rent a single family home. We went straight to her when we bought our first home in 2010.  Our good fortune led us to her expertise again in 2016 when she was our agent buying and selling.  She's seen our son grow up; at this point, she's practically family."


Mark, Springfield


"I highly recommend Jo Ann Kennel. She did a wonderful job helping to prepare my house for sale. She watched over everything - no worries for me. She sold my house quickly for a fair price. Everything went smoothly. She was just great."


Allan, Annandale


"As first time sellers we benefited from Jo Ann’s experience and judgment! Great communicator who guided us through the process before, during and after the sale. Sold our home in three weeks!"


Chuck and Lynn, Springfield


"Jo Ann and I worked together diligently through several challenges in selling my condo as I prepared to retire in June 2017. Though not successful in selling in 2017, I was able to rent and have tenants in time for me to move. We stayed in contact and Jo Ann kept me abreast on how the market was doing and the best time to put on the market as we approached 2018. She gave great advice and we weighed my options. She was wonderful in explaining so I could make an informed wise decision. In the end I was very pleased with the sale outcome, and it was a pleasure to work with her."
