" Working with Carol was a joy.  She is hardworking, organized,professional, efficient, energetic and enthusiastic.  She turned a scary occasion into a smooth, easy ride.  I can't even believe how simple the whole process was, thanks to her." - Dian L.

"I have worked with Carol E. McEwen both as a buyer and seller, and can assure you that she will be a tremendous asset to you on either side of a real estate transaction.  Carol has everything you will need in a Realtor: years of experience, lots of energy and creativity, attention to all the details -- small and large -- in the transaction, high ethics, and communication and 'people' skills that are both effective and genuine.  After working with Carol, it will be obvious to you how much she loves her job and appreciated having you as a customer.  Moreover, as buying and selling a house can cause stress for many of us, you can be assured that Carol will make it as painless as possible." - Dan R.

"I wanted to thank you [Jinx] for everything you and Carol did for me during the sale of my home.  From the first meeting we had, I felt so comfortable with you, and I knew that you would take my best interests to heart.  The fact that you were able to answer my questions knowledgeably, but clearly, really put me at ease.  The support you gave me during the whole preparation process leading up to the showing was invaluable.  Even when I was worried, you kept your cool, and offered support and guidance that really made all the difference.  So many people who had been in my house numerous times, commented on how the little changes you suggested made all the difference!  Guiding me through the contract negotiation process is where you really earned you keep.  Managing to keep up with all the phone calls and faxes, and being able to distill all the information into the bottom line, while keeping my wants and needs top priority throughout the process was quite a talent.  The fact that my house went on the market and sold in the same day is a testament to your hard work and dedication." - Cynthia B.

"When I met Carol at an open house in March I was ambivalent about what sort of house to buy or where.  But by the end of April, my husband and I were the owners of a beautiful house in Arlington.  We would not have this house if it weren't for Carol.  From the start, she was organized, energetic, enthusiastic and informed.  She is charming even when she's telling you what to do.  In fact, her signature perseverance pulled the deal off.  She dogged the seller, getting him to approve changes to the contract when the listing agent couldn't even get him on the phone.  In short, I would recommend Carol to anyone looking for a house in Virginia and they would be lucky to get her." - Barbara R.

 "As you [Jinx] know, I had already done quite a bit of background reading on purchasing a home before I came to you for help.  Despite all of that information, questions still came up, and you were always able to answer them.  You patiently took me through every step of the mountain of forms and kept explaining everything until I understood.  I also appreciate how you listened to what I wanted, such as a secure building, a safe neighborhood, and easy access to public transportation, as well as what my limitations were, like the cap on the property's sale price.  You worked miracles to stay within those guidelines, and found just the right property for me.  And you definitely searched far and wide to find a place that was a good fit. . . . All of your hard work made this process practically painless.  And your expertise with handling questionable sellers and their agents helped me stay calm during those interesting times after we submitted our bids.  I will definitely be calling you again when I am ready to expand my real estate empire." - Leza C.

"Dear Jinx,  Roger and I want to thank you very much for your delicious pumpkin bread.  We did enjoy it.  But, most of all we want to thank you for being so patient with us over these past eight months.  Everything you did to help sell our house is very much appreciated.  You bent over backwards to do everything you were asked to do plus more.  You were patient and gracious no matter what day or time we called you.  You made selling a house as stressless as you could for us and we want you to know how much your thoughtfulness was and is appreciated.  We wish you the best in your future.  All the best, Lori & Roger" A.
