What a POWERFUL Real Estate Team! Denise Buck and Ed Johnson of the DC Metro Reality Team are some of the best. Denise served as the listing for my home in May of 2021. Denise provides expert staging and service coordination. She was able to coordinate top-notch photography, video, and web-based services (personalized website for my home with 3D Walkthrough and video), which resulted in receiving multiple offers that were ALL over asking price within three days of listing. Denise is a artful negotiator who maintains a level of professionalism that is hard to find. Denise will always act in your best interest to bring bring in top dollar. Denise was recently listed in Northern Virginia Magazine as a Top Producing Agent and has over 60 other 5-Star reviews on Zillow. Whether you are buying or selling in the DC Metro Area, Denise Buck and Ed Johnson are the right Realtors® for you.

DENISE BUCK IS AN AMAZING Realtor®! After almost two years of searching for a home, I had been through two recommended Real Estate agents, viewed 107 homes, and lost several bids in which my offer was significantly above listing price. After all this mayhem I decided to find my own Real Estate agent who could not only find me my dream home, but who could also close in extremely competitive bidding situations. When I initially spoke to Denise, I explained to her that I am an EXTREAMLY picky and not easy to deal with client. She was unphased by this affirmation and displayed extreme confidence in being able to deliver. Based on this, along with her sales record, I decided to retain her services. With no exaggeration I can unequivocally say this was one of the greatest choices I’ve made. She was able to find my dream home and get me under contract in 20 days!!!!! There’s so much I can say t…

There’s so much I can say to quantify why Denise is an awesome Realtor® that I can write a book. Since that’s not feasible for reviews, here’s a couple bullets to capture actions which reflect business acumen, competency, and professionalism; -Leveraged relationship with Realtors® to identify and show houses before they were even advertise -Rendered guidance on actions to take to ensure my bid was accepted in extremely competitive situations (i.e. going with a local bank, getting pre-approved vs. pre-qualified, writing a letter to coincide with my offer, etc.) -Displayed amazing negotiation skills with seller bearing unreasonable expectations -Alleviated seller concerns regarding my ability to close in a timely fashion -Recommended great contractors to conduct renovations at great prices (I know this because I shopped around profusely) -Frequently alerted me of other clients who were moving out and selling furniture at a good price. Because of Denise, I am now living in my dream home in a great community and can get back to enjoying life! Thank you Denise Buck!!

Denise and Ed represented my wife and and I in selling and purchasing our new home during the pandemic. During a hot market, Denise and Ed understood that we needed to act quickly, and they always made themselves available to discuss new listings. Denise was instrumental in getting top dollar for our sale. She knows what buyers and the market want, but she also understands budgetary constraints. Denise and Ed were also able to help instrumental in negotiating the purchase of our future home. Denise is wonderful at establishing rapport with other agents. Her rapport with the seller's agent gave us the information we needed to craft an offer that our seller couldn't refuse. With Denise and Ed, you will get a very thoughtful and experienced Realtor® team. They truly do care and spend the time to ensure that you feel comfortable with every step of the selling and buying process.

During our long search for a new home in Northern Virginia, we had worked with various Realtors®. Denise Buck impressed us with her persistence, thoughtfulness, professional knowledge, and dedication to listening to her customers and understanding their true needs. It is because of all of these nice qualities, she successfully found us a new home that fits our needs and expectations. As a Realtor®, it is crucial that they truly listen to their customers to respond to their needs, and Denise spent time in the beginning to sit down with us talking, discussing, and interviewing us to understand our profile and needs. We had looked for a house in Northern Virginia for a couple of years, but at no avail due to price, location, house conditions etc. Denise listened to us, and understood our priority, and heeded for us. When we were about to give up our search, she told us an upcoming new const…

As a Realtor®, it is crucial that they truly listen to their customers to respond to their needs, and Denise spent time in the beginning to sit down with us talking, discussing, and interviewing us to understand our profile and needs. We had looked for a house in Northern Virginia for a couple of years, but at no avail due to price, location, house conditions etc. Denise listened to us, and understood our priority, and heeded for us. When we were about to give up our search, she told us an upcoming new construction within our budget range at a perfect location for us. She had us reserved as the first session with the builder, and we had the deal done easily. It turned out that the new construction was extremely popular, and we were lucky to be the first one to choose a premium slot due to her connections. This showed that she carefully screened and selected for her customers after she established a complete profile for them, and thus is able to meet their needs sharply and promptly when the chance comes. In addition to her connections and thoughtfulness, Denise is always responsive to our questions and concerns. She walked us though the entire buying process, followed-up with builders for miscellaneous matters, provided us with information with a good loan officers to get a good rate. She even gave us a congratulation card and surprising house-warming gifts as soon as the closing was done. She provided many other relevant services and information, such as posting appliances for sale, mover’s contact, and garage opener’s information, as well as ideas of interior design, home space use, coupons for furniture store, and many more. I feel any information related to home, she will be able to provide some advice or information. We cannot appreciate her enough and will surely invite her and Ed to our new place when things are settled. I would highly highly recommend Denise and Ed for your next home search for their proactiveness for the entire process.
