I have worked with Joan Carmichael on the sale and purchase of properties for over 20 years. Each time she continues to demonstrate her expert knowledge of the real estate markets in/around the metropolitan DMV area. She is experienced in setting goals and expectations to her buyers and/or sellers of what to expect throughout the real estate process; knows how price listings for sale; while communicating often and clearly of what is happening during the process and ultimately the transaction. Joan is a trusted advisor; but more importantly, she's kind, generous, professional and attentive.
Joan and I have been neighbors for many years. After 34 years of living in my home, I decided it was time to sell and downsize. Joan was the third realtor I met with and by far the most impressionable. From our first meeting to our pre-closing session, Joan continuously explained every step and terminology used in the house sale process. If I had questions, etc., Joan promptly and clearly responded to my concerns in the most professional manner. Her real estate experience and knowledge are exceptional. Most importantly, Joan is a real person who understands and respects her clients.
We recently sold our home in SW DC with the phenominal support of Joan Carmichael! From start to finish, she went above and beyond what was required by contract. We were non-local for a majority of the time the home was shown and Joan made a personal committment to stop by before and after every visit to ensure a positive first impression each showing. She took time to understand our expectations and needs, offered clear guidance, and handled every detail with professionalism and care. Her expertise, responsiveness, and genuine commitment made a complex process feel smooth and manageable. I highly recommend Joan to anyone seeking a realtor who truly exceeds expectations.
Joan Carmichael handled a challenging sales experience expertly. She was professionally tenacious in negotiating with the outgoing renters above and beyond the call of duty. From start to finish, including recommendations for rennovation, overseeing the quality of the work through to listing, staging and securing a contract. Joan Camichael is an extraordinary professional.
Joan is an excellent realtor who is passionate about her work and clients. She takes time to learn the client needs and the market. She priced our property optimally and we received an offer in less than 7 days and closed the transaction in 30 days. This is a great example of her expertise and knowledge of the market. I highly recommend Joan Carmichael as a realtor of choice, who has her finger on the real estate pulse in the area to ensure a smooth transaction. Bravo!!!
Joan is very professional. if you look for a real estate agent to change your dream home to reality I highly recommend Joan Carmichael. And what good about her is, she has no problem to understand broken English and foreign accents.English is my second language so I am not perfect,but it wasn't an issue at all. Also Joan never said no to me when I asked her to see a house anytime any day. I am very happy about her service and I will recommend to my friends and relatives to work with her.
We feel so fortunate that we got to work with Joan. She was the perfect agent for us. Really great guide who was super punctual, great at scheduling tours in order, and super knowledgeable about what to look for and the neighborhoods in DC/VA. She's also just a standup person with a great attitude and we were so happy to do our outings with her. Joan's great at what she does and she's awesome!
Joan was professional, knowledgeable, and personable. She was attentive to my specific needs. She took time to explain the process and what to expect. I was comfortable with working with her and would definitely recommend her to others.
Joan was very helpful and diligent as usual with both the sale of our old house and the purchase of our new house. We were happy to work with Joan once again after working with her more than five years ago to buy our first house.
It was clear from the start that Joan was an expert in the area of my sale. She has a great team of resources available that proved to be very beneficial to keeping the momentum of the sale moving forward. Thank you Joan!
