        Working with Katie Stowe was an absolute dream. Selling a home can be stressful enough, but doing it from abroad seemed almost impossible but Katie made everything so easy. From start to finish, she made the entire process seamless and stress-free. She was incredibly easy to work with, always communicative, and totally on top of every detail. She coordinated directly with a contractor, knew exactly what needed to be done to get our home market-ready, and handled everything with complete professionalism. We trusted her implicitly, and she absolutely delivered. Thanks to her guidance, expertise, and dedication, we not only sold our house smoothly but also got over asking price. We couldn’t be more grateful for her hard work and heart. If you're looking for a realtor you can truly rely on, who goes above and beyond in every way—look no further. She’s simply the best!

        Katie is great and very patient with the endless questions we had for her (it is our first time renting out a property). Always there when we need her, answers all of our questions (there have been many). Has made the process, which to us is very complex, easy to navigate and is always willing to take the time and ensure we feel comfortable and ready for next steps.

        Katie was OUTSTANDING to work with as we had a tight timeline to find a new place to live. She scheduled prompt showings and gave us her thoughts on properties when needed. Most importantly, she helped us through the stress of waiting for decisions from property managers/landlords, and took the time to get to know us as a family. We would not have found this place without her!

        We cannot say enough good things about Katie!  Thanks to her expertise, dedication, and professionalism, we felt supported and confident with our first home purchase. EXPERTISE:  My husband and I were first-time homebuyers and initially felt overwhelmed.  Katie ensured that we were informed and understood every step of the process. She expertly guided us -- from securing a lender to sharing invaluable market insights to contract negotiations.  Katies knack for spotting potential issues and suggesting helpful resources was immensely helpful. Her clear explanations of every step in the process empowered us to make informed decisions.  And her negotiation skills secured us an excellent deal.  Of note, we appreciated her unique expertise because we are a Foreign Service family with frequent relocations  she understood our situation.  DEDICATION:  Katie went above and beyond. She was always available, anticipating our needs and exceeding expectations.  From researching neighborhood developments to personally contacting building management to advocating on our behalf, Katies dedication was unmatched.  PROFESSIONALISM:  We valued Katie's clear communication, responsiveness, and attention to detail.  Her organizational skills, including a personalized checklist, kept us on track throughout the process. We also appreciated that we never felt rushed or pressured when searching for a home. When we ultimately found a place on which we wanted to place an offer, Katie was willing to visit it as many times as we wanted, helping us feel confident in our purchase. CONTINUED SUPPORT:  Even after closing, Katie continues to be a valuable resource for additional questions and recommendations related to home ownership. Plus, Katie is kind, has a great sense of humor, and is incredibly knowledgeable. We wholeheartedly recommend her!

        We want to thank Katie Stowe for helping us buy our condo in Alexandria. We feel fortunate to connect with an experienced Realtor who is licensed in VA, DC, and MD because we looked in all three jurisdictions before finding a place in Alexandria that will be a perfect fit for our family. Katie not only helped us find a great place to live, but she also arranged for a somewhat complicated remote closing. She truly understands the needs of people relocating to the area and adjusted her schedule to fit the time zone difference. Katie also kept us continually updated throughout the process. We feel lucky to have been able to work with her to purchase our new home!

        Katie and Rengin's level of service was exemplary because it set the standard on how agents should support customer needs. Katie and Rengin were consistently in touch with us to address our questions, anticipate our needs, and guide us through the process. They did this despite regular challenges regarding time zones, technology limitations, and set travel/work schedules. Katie and Rengin successfully worked to prevent the fact that we were posted overseas, working in highly demanding positions, and tied to complicated schedules, to keep our transactions on time, on track, and culminating on great real estate deals.

        I could not have been more impressed with our entire experience working with Katie. She knows the DMV real estate market intimately and was a wonderful guide through the process. Not only did she help us navigate an extremely tough buyers market, but she did an amazing job of guiding our decision making.  We never felt pressured at all, but we always felt supported. Katie and her team were always instantly responsive, quick to act when new homes entered the market, and always prepared. Katies exceptional efforts got us into a wonderful new home at a great price, and her network of contacts got us across the finish line quickly and with no difficulties.  Working with Katie was an amazing experience, and I cannot imagine having a more effective guide and advocate as we bought our new home.

        Katie Stowe goes above and beyond to make sure I understand the process and that my interests are a top priority. I trust her to keep my needs in mind and to provide salient advice throughout the decision making. She made sure I got the best deal and steered me in the right direction each step of the way. She was communicative and responsive to my needs, even though my availability meant I could mostly talk during the evenings and weekends.

        My wife and I cannot say enough about how impressed we were with Katie's customer service and negotiating prowess on our behalf when we purchased a co-op unit.As first time homebuyers who were overseas with a significant time difference, Katie was outstanding, immediately responsive via phone, text or email when any questions or concerns popped up. When a unit in a building we dreamed of came available, we were disappointed in that particular unit.But through her own initiative, she offered to take a look at a similar unit, which we ended up loving and closing on!She made ever part of the process as stress-free as possible, even when we encountered a few hiccups.Her knowledge of the process was appreciated and always a pleasure to work with. Thank you Katie!

        Wow, we can't say enough about working with Katie this year to purchase a home. Not only were we dealing with a challenging and competative market, we were overseas in different countries, different time zones juggling our own busy work schedules. Katie and her team were oustanding, immediately responsive via phone, text or email when any questions or concerns popped up. She made a stressful situation seamless and we closed much quicker than we anticipated. She has a wealth of knowledge and is a joy to work with. Thank you Katie!!!

        Katie was amazing in the way she supported the sale of our house, which was made particularly challenging because we did it while posted overseas. Starting with all the information she provided us (without pressure) to help figure out whether or not we wanted to sell or rent, to the recommendations she made on which upgrades and fixes to prioritize, to the work she and her team arranged for us on the ground to get everything done, to fixing last-minute glitches with the homeowners association, to being online with us at all hours of her day to keep things moving, and literally being virtually “present” to ensure our closing was proceeding as it needed to, Katie provided the support one can only wish for from a real estate professional. She was extremely communicative, always on top of things, and very proactive with doing what was in our best interest. Katie and her team handled every part of our home sale with the utmost care and expertise. Our house sold very quickly and for the above-asking price. The upgrades she recommended were definitely worth the time and financial investment we made. We highly recommend her services, including for those who might be located elsewhere and selling (or buying) remotely.

        In a very competitive market, Katie helped us find the right home. We were searching for homes in DC while living overseas- a difficult task indeed! However, we managed to tour houses, learn about neighborhoods, get pre-inspections, all while being abroad. I know that it would not have been possible without Katie's professionalism, communication, dedication, various connections and attention to detail. Thank you!

        Katie was the person that helped us find the perfect home in Oakton while living abroad. She was stunning.She worked around our schedule, our time difference and went the extra step to help us out. She visited potential homes several times, she was present at home inspections while we couldn’t,  she pointed out potential problems, was very punctual and always available for a phone call or WhatsApp. She noticed that a house we had made an offer on had a serious issue and, setting aside her personal gain, she helped us buy our perfect match.We have been extremely lucky to have found her and very grateful for all the help.

        We were first-time home buyers in the competitive Arlington market, so having a great realtor was very important to us. Katie found a great listing that I wouldn't have checked out on my own, and within a few weeks we were under contract for an amazing 4BR/3.5BA in a desirable neighborhood of North Arlington. She walked us through every step, recommended a great title company and mortgage lender, and helped us immensely at every stage of the process. On top of everything, she gave our kids the sweetest closing gifts, which were some toys she'd noticed them enjoying during one of our open house visits.

        Katie Stowe of McEnearney Associates is an excellent realtor. We just sold our townhouse with her, and it was an amazing experience. We were posted overseas, and the townhouse needed some renovation work. She provided a responsible and efficient contractor, oversaw all the renovations, including input on design, and expertly shepherded us through a changing DC area market, including some tricky negotiations. I can't say enough about how knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful she was. Plus, she's just a genuinely lovely person who made the whole process go smoothly. We highly recommend Katie to both buyers and sellers; you will not be disappointed in her top-notch service.

        Katie, while meeting her work schedule and family's demands, still found time to come to my home to share coffee and explain the steps in getting a home ready for sale. Any question I had was quickly answered from her own knowledge or through her research. Katie proved to be a valued asset in meeting the many steps necessary to get a house to market. One of her first steps was putting me in contact with a trusted contractor, who gave my house the needed look for a welcoming curb appeal. Next step was the downsizing, followed by the house inspection, repairs, the house staging, open house and taking contracts for purchase. These steps and more got me a fair price for my house. During this process I had to have a knee replacement and therapy. And while I had moved out of the house during the last six weeks before closing, Katie handled the scheduling and appointments for the workers, preparing the house for sale.

        We were fortunate to meet Katie Stowe when work required a major move for our family into the Washington, D.C. area. Finding a new home was our first priority. And finding an honest, hard-working realtor was a task in itself. But honest and hard-working describes Katie perfectly. Katie made sure she understood exactly what we needed and wanted in a home. She stayed in close contact by e-mail and phone on a daily basis. She did her research and we were not disappointed. When she found us the home we knew would be perfect for us Katie made sure our offer was stronger than three other offers made on that home the same day. And after the offer was accepted, she made sure every detail stayed on track through closing. We could not have asked for a more caring, professional realtor than Katie Stowe. If we find ourselves needing a realtor in the future, she will be the person we call.

        Exceptional Service! Phenomenal Experience with Overseas Families Moving Home. All Transactions leading to final closing conducted 11 time zones away. We are an active duty military family and we recently PCS'd from service at the U.S. Embassy in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan to the Northern Capital Region. Because most of my service is overseas, I have not previously purchased a home. Like all of us in uniform, we have to plan for the day that our career comes to an end, so on this move, we decided to purchase a home. Because we initiated the process from overseas, on the other side of the world, I was very nervous about the process and asked other officers for advice and through the Foreign Area Officer community, Katie was highly recommended. We contacted Katie and other Real Estate Agents in the area and Katie by far made the best first impression. As we continued to work with her under contract, that first great impression was only intensified. She did an amazing job. We are now first-time homeowners and the experience of purchasing a home was excellent, despite my initial concerns. Here are the highlights: * Professional, friendly and well thought-out advice. * Fast response on all questions. * Willingness to work with us in hours that were mutually acceptable with an 11 hour time difference. * Great use of tech to run us through Webcam home viewings of all houses we were interested in. * Sage advice as the process continued, to included a willingness to give us 'hard news we didn't want to hear' on one property that we narrowly avoided purchasing (fire damage). * Despite the pressure to buy quickly, Katie gave us the advice we needed to make the best negotiations in our interest. * Help with local contractors. * When asked, she provided several options for highly rated local mortgage lenders, without pushing us toward any.

        Katie represented us when we bought a home in March of 2018 and facilitated a seamless home buying experience for us. She was very thorough in explaining the whole process as well as at each stage-specific documents we had to sign. During the house search, she demonstrated excellent knowledge of cpimtrCountry Creek and the broader Vienna area and accommodated special requests from us, including checking the willingness to sell of owners of certain houses we liked particularly well. We also felt Katie placed our interest through out the processs. She meticulously vetted all documents before asking for our signatures. Her attention to detail saved us money when during the final walk-through she identified something that required fixing from the seller. All in all very professional and responsive and I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking to buy/sell.rent.

        Katie helped us find a house in Arlington VA in November 2017. After cycling through multiple agents who promised responsiveness and in-depth familiarity with local neighborhoods, I'm thrilled to say that Katie was the only one who actually delivered. She is thorough, very responsive and really made us feel like she was working on our behalf. We would recommend Katie to anyone looking to buy, sell or rent in Northern Virginia, and we look forward to working with her in the future
