I owned a condo in complex that normally would take 3 times of regular unit to sell in any market condition. Worked with Lisa to make strategy how to make it suitable for market with optimal renovation cost. While others exact similar unit taking 2-3 months to sell, I was able to sell my unit in 3 days with 2 offers to choose from in addition, other owners in complex lowering their price, I sold it above my asking and covered my cost too. Excellent experience.

Lisa is smart and very knowledgeable. She knows the area very well and was able to help steer us in the right direction. She was communicative throughout the process and answered my texts at night and on weekends. She somehow managed to get us into every house we wanted to see in a span of 3 days on a short house hunting trip. Then, after we found our house with a few minor issues, she had a contractor for each of the things we needed fixed or updated, and they’ve all need outstanding. Overall, the best realtor I’ve ever worked with.

Lisa Goodfriend has been my realtor since 2011 for the buying of my condo home and recently for the selling of the same home. Lisa is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely listens to concerns. She never tried to rush me to buy or tried to sway my decisions. She gave me excellent advice and negotiated very well in my behalf! Lisa's expert knowledge of real estate, the area, and housing trends, make her an excellent choice as your realtor. I highly recommend Lisa Goodfriend!

We selected Lisa after interviewing a couple real estate agents to list and sell the townhouse. We made the right choice! She listed the property competitively and obtained many offers well over the sale price. And, her insight into buyer financing led to us accepting the highest offer and resulted in a quick sale with no complications! All this even after she supervised contractor work for upgrades, staging, and more! And she was never more than a text or message away, even while on a short vacation! Yes, we knew she'd be on vacation (just a few days) when we hired her. Her reputation, energy, listening skills and professionalism proved she was the right person. It's a sellers' market, but our experience was made even better and more profitable thanks to Lisa.

Lisa is a brilliant realtor that was my trusted advisor as I was selling my home while doing significant travel. She kept me completely up to date on all aspects of preparing my home for the market and quickly getting it listed.
She provided me with her wealth of wisdom on updates and staging that led me to receive multiple offers and selling my home for WELL over asking price!
I highly recommend Lisa because she is a brilliant realtor and also a joy to work with.

Sometimes you are lucky to get one glowing attribute, but this caring, thorough, agreeable and professional real-estate agent has all these qualities - and more. I felt very well taken-care-of and not at all anxious during this major change in my life! Thank You (again) Lisa!

We can't say enough good things about Lisa. We recently sold our home while also moving abroad, so we were looking for someone who could be as hands-on as possible while communicating across many, many timezones. Right from the outset, she gave outstanding advice about the work we needed to do to sell at our desired price point, and from there she handled just about everything. She directed renovations, coordinated staging and photos, and even set up a virtual notary so we could close from half a world away. She kept in constant communication so we didn't have to worry about anything. Given all that, unsurprisingly, Lisa was able to get us well over our asking price. Lisa made the emotional process of selling our first home easy, and we couldn't imagine using anyone else.

We’ve moved more times than I like to admit but Lisa made selling and buying our homes as simple as humanly possible even during competitive markets. We value her opinions as they are backed up by years of experience. Hopefully we won’t be selling/buying again any time soon but if we do it will be with Lisa’s help.

Lisa, my wonderful real estate agent is Second to None! For the past 10 years she has surpassed my expectations in terms of her professionalism, thoroughness, and knowledge of the neighborhood and the community. Lisa does a lot more for me than I ever expected from a Realtor. From walk-throughs to recommending paint job to flooring to plumber, her insight has been extremely valuable in rental of my property year after year. I don’t think I could have done it without her expertise and professional service. She is totally a friend who cares for you!

Lisa Goodfriend helped to make the sale of our home run smoothly. She reviewed our house prior to listing and made suggestions for improvements to help us to get top-dollar. During the renovations, Lisa stopped by several times to check on the progress and to see if we needed any help. When the work was complete, she walked through to see if anything else needed to be addressed. After we moved out, Lisa treated the house as if it were her own. One of the toilets started to leak and Lisa arranged for a plumber to fix the issue. She paid the plumber, for which she was reimbursed at closing. She even swept the front porch before the final walk through. It was certainly a pleasure to work with Lisa!

We can’t say enough good things about Lisa Goodfriend. She is truly exceptional! Lisa put in all the hard work towards making our dream become a reality. We had big asks of her that made everything working out a needle in a haystack scenario. Specifically, we narrowed our needs to one neighborhood with one particular floorplan, and Lisa delivered us the house of our dreams all the while getting us the terms we needed to sell our house during the holiday season. Not only was Lisa able to assist in the domestic purchase and sale of our house in Kingstowne, but she was also able to get a family-owned foreign property in Spain that we had not visited in ten years on the market and sold the first day!
When it comes to real estate agents, Lisa is at the top of her game. She exhibits kindness, patience, knowledge, responsiveness and an attention to detail that is absolutely needed at every step in a real estate transaction. After a terrible purchase experience with our first realtor, we were left believing that all real estate agents were crooks and pointless. Lisa truly is a rock star and showed us the value of a good real estate agent. Again, we can’t recommend her enough, she is the best realtor out there, period. We just wish we had a Lisa to help us out in every other aspects of our lives ;)

We cannot say enough about how amazing Lisa was throughout the entire process of the sale of our home. From the get-go, Lisa made us feel comfortable, explaining the process from start to finish and took care of everything along the way. She was there every step of the way, guiding us along while still leaving the final decisions up to us. Fighting on our behalf, Lisa worked hard to get us an incredible deal on our home and we cannot thank her enough for the excellent customer service. THANK YOU LISA!

Lisa was a personal referral and far exceeded the referring person's accolades (which were extremely high). She has a deep background and network in the NoVA area, truly looked out for us and represented our best interests, and was a lot of fun to work with. She worked hard to find the perfect house and was unflagging in her pursuit. I actually wish I could buy another house, just so I could work with her again! Can't recommend her enough and have already forwarded her info to several friends looking to buy.

I had no referrals for a realtor! I started looking on the internet and found a lot of agents with good and bad reviews, mostly bad reviews. Somehow I stumbled on to Lisa's website. She had all good reviews! HOW CAN THAT BE??? I studied her profile and find out she has been selling real estate in my area for nearly 30 years. So I thought what the heck, I gave her a call, she picked up right away. We made an appointment to meet and I was sold on her knowledge of the market and the area. We got 3 offers right away. Lisa was so helpful negotiating though them. She absolutely got me the best offer. THANK YOU LISA!!!

I was living out of town, and Lisa helped my daughter locate a GREAT place in Old Town Alexandria suitable for both of us. She negotiated an excellent deal with the buyer, and found us a wonderful mortgage agent as well. She is a personable, highly competent agent, and I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy in Northern Virginia.

I was thrilled with Lisa's assistance with the home buying process. She quickly learned what our requirements were, and helped us find prospective homes to consider.

A consummate professional who brings skill, experience and technical competence to real estate transactions.

I initially met Lisa Goodfriend when she was the listing agent of the first house I purchased in 2000. (not my realtor, but the realtor for the seller) From the moment I met her I was impressed with her insightfulness and honesty regarding the home buying process. Needless to say, when I was ready to purchase my second house I knew exactly who I wanted to be on my team, Lisa Goodfriend! She provided amazing support and research for all the properties we visited and when it was time to place an offer I knew it was the best presented offer on the table. Multiple offers were presented to the seller and ours was the one they accepted! I decided to turn my first home into a rental property and I, once again, asked Lisa Goodfriend to assist me. She helped me navigate the rental market and it was rented within 2 weeks! Since then, she has rented my property out an additional two times and all three times with respectable tenants. I have referred numerous friends to Lisa Goodfriend and they all have had amazing home buying/selling experiences. I continue to call upon Lisa Goodfriend for real estate questions and she is always there to assist me. I wholeheartedly recommend Lisa Goodfriend for all your real estate needs!!

I would definitely recommend Lisa. i found Lisa online when i initially started my search on buying a home and she responded quickly and answered all my questions as I was clueless on how to even begin and we started looking at properties then. Unfortunately, i was not ready to buy that year and let her know that i would follow up with her the following year, which i did. Amazing experience, she listened and knew exactly what i wanted and didnt want and went above and beyond to help me get what i wanted. After looking at property after property and making offer after offer, i finally found what i wanted and i got exactly what i wanted out of the deal and she was always so patient and understanding. For any future realtor needs, I will definitely be going back to her. Hope this helps! Courtesy of Jennifer, Alexandria

Lisa is one of the most knowledgeable and experienced real estate professionals you will find. She sets the proper expectations from the start so there will not be any surprises down the road. Her razor sharp attention to detail and her keen ability to negotiate on behalf of her clients is what you want when selecting a real estate professional to represent you whether you are listing or buying a home. Having Lisa in your court will give you the leg up that you need in our very competitive real estate market.

Lisa is the best! I had worked with a realtor previously, who gave up on me and my list of must-haves. When I met Lisa, she really listened to me and and worked with me to find the right condo. She knows real estate and all the requirements and walked me through the process painlessly. I agree with one of the other reviewers, that Lisa's communication skills are superior. She always responded to my phone calls and emails, almost right away, to answer my questions or concerns. She kept me updated with information about her schedule if she was going to be involved in closings or out of town.

Lisa Goodfriend helped my husband and I search for our first home. As first time home buyers this process seemed both scary and overwhelming! Thankfully, we knew we were in good hands the second we sat down to meet with Lisa. From the start she was genuine and extremely personable which made working with her a true delight! Lisa is intelligent, confident and knowledgable and she knows the real estate market inside and out. It helped tremendously that she was direct and to the point when it came to answering our questions and uncertainties. She made it her priority to teach us the many important details about home buying. This helped to ease our minds and made the decision process quite simple. Lisa has incredible attention to detail and was able to point out both pros and cons in potential homes; things my husband and I would have never even considered. She was open to sharing her own opinions and concerns which was a huge help to us in the learning process. I can't express enough how comfortable and calming it was to have her as our realtor. Lisa has become more than just our agent. She has become our friend - an absolutely phenomenal agent and we are forever grateful!

I've hired four real estate agents in my lifetime. The competition for best realtor isn't even close. It's Lisa. We were living in California at the time of our home search, and Lisa took care of so many details from Virginia, even showing up for an appointment that we couldn't make. During my visit to Virginia, I had narrowed it down to two homes. One was a townhouse, and the other a SFH. The SFH cost $50K more. Some realtors just want the higher sale--get it over with. Lisa reminded me, however, that the townhouse met more of the criteria that my husband and I had listed when we began our search. This is one realtor who doesn't make you feel like she's just in it for the money. She's in it to help you find the home for you. All along the way, she makes you feel like you're her only client. (You're not!) When the movers were delivering our furniture and couldn't get something past the banister, Lisa knew a handyman who could get right over to us and take it off. She knows locals who can respond to situations you might encounter in your new home. When we recently bought a new home, outside of Virginia, Lisa looked at the listing online and did not hesitate to point out the weaknesses we needed to take into consideration. We ended up buying the house (an old farmhouse that we love!), but we were more aware during the process because Lisa did not hold back on giving us the negatives about a home we were excited about. She is direct and honest, and there through the years. With Lisa, you get a realtor for life. Courtesy of - Kari Marti

From the start, Lisa takes the time to get to know you and your needs. She never tries to sell you something that isn't a good fit. Most importantly, she has your back throughout the whole process of buying or selling. Her knowledge of the market and legal matters is superior to most. On top of all this, she flawlessly handles your stress/concerns so you have a pleasant real estate experience. I love her honest and candid feedback, her communication/availability (she is there for you day and night, no joke) and the fact that she has become more than an agent to us-we consider her a dear friend. Thanks for always taking great care of us, Lisa! Courtesy of - Hunter & Randi - Woodbridge VA

I worked for the DoD for over 30 years in Housing Management and know first-hand how stressful it can be to move around. One of the most important decisions you will make is finding the right Real Estate agent to advise and help you through the process. Lisa Goodfriend is that right agent! I first met Lisa through friends of mine while she was helping them to find a home in the DC area. And though she didn't help me with the purchase of my home, when I needed professional Real Estate services while I was stationed overseas, I contacted her. She helped me to find a good property manager and upon several occasions new tenants when needed. She worked diligently to find me the right mortgage lender when it became apparent I needed to refinance my home. So when it came time to sale - again I called upon Lisa. After just a few short weeks we received an offer and each and every time there was another hurdle to get through in order to close the deal, Lisa was there! She worked hard for me and she will work just as hard for you!! Courtesy of Ginger, Alexandria

Lisa was our Realtor when we purchased our home. She was fantastic and knew the area extremely well which helped us tremendously. Two-plus years later we are still thrilled with our house and location, especially with the new shopping center coming (which she knew about a year before a single hole was dug). We will definitely seek Lisa's assistance in our next home. Courtesy of Dan S - Alexandria

Lisa is a remarkable realtor! We never could have bought this home without her and never could have sold our old one. She handled my stress and neurosis with aplomb, even when I was driving myself crazy. She's honest, spins no tales and speaks the truth. Just what you want in what can be a very stressful time. So glad we worked with her! Courtesy of - Micah & Anna, Springfield

We actually enjoyed looking for houses and it was, in part due to Lisa and her incredible knowledge of the area and the properties. It helps that she has been in the area, working as an agent for so long because she also knows the other agents and that allows her to help move the buying process along. We were so happy, start to finish with our buying and then our selling of houses. We recommend Lisa to many friends that are looking and moving into the area.

Lisa was an absolute pleasure to work with! She quickly determined what type of home we were looking for and was successful in filtering out anything we wouldn't be interested in. We bonded immediately; it felt as if we knew each other for years! Once we decided on a house, Lisa made the negotiation process as easy as possible. She was firm with the Seller to get us what we wanted to agree to the contract. After the closing, Lisa continued to stay on top of the outstanding items until completion. I would be very happy to do business with Lisa and I will definitely recommend her when given the opportunity! Courtesy of Paul, Mary Ann & Steve, Springfield

I am from the Washington DC area, and my work has required me to move in and out of the DC area many times. As such, I have now bought and/or sold 7 homes with Lisa, and I would not consider using any other agent. She knows the market, the trends, the prices and she always keeps your interests at heart. She is easy to work with and quite innovative/shrewd in finding ways to make thing work. I think she is simply the best. Courtesy of Patrick & Geri, Alexandria

After having a bad experience with another agent, I asked my friends to recommend an agent to work with me to sell my townhouse. Lisa was immediately recommended and my husband and I hired her after we met. Throughout the process of selling our home, Lisa was present and her guidance through the process was wonderful. Having experienced the other side of the spectrum, her responsiveness and attention to detail was refreshing and relieving, particularly as this was the first time that we've sold a home. She made a stressful experience as smooth as possible, and was easily available and a prompt communicator. We would highly recommend Lisa, and have already passed her details along to our neighbors. I'm bummed that we have moved from the area and she can no longer represent us... Our new agent will have big shoes to fill Courtesy of - David & Rachel, Springfield

Lisa went above and beyond in helping us find our dream home and her negotiating skills are amazing. She was always looking out for our best interests. I am definitely going to recommend her to everyone I know that's looking to buy or sell! Courtesy of David & Beth, Springfield

Working with Lisa has been a pleasure in every way. We were planning a cross-country move from San Diego to the DC area. She set up a great search based on the amenities we wanted in a home, checked in with us frequently to make sure that the search was meeting our needs, and developed a great plan of attack for our house-hunting trip. She cleared her schedule for the entire 5 days we were in town to house-hunt, making it clear that she understood the importance of our time in the area to find a home. She planned a first day based on houses we were most interested in, and a few possibilities she thought might be good considerations. Lisa offered plenty of valuable advice about the homes, schools, and neighborhoods, while allowing us room to make our own decisions based on our taste. Once we chose a home, she helped us work on a reasonable offer based on multiple points of data. She worked very well with the seller’s realtor, and built a great relationship with him in order to ensure a smooth closing. The agencies that Lisa recommended (lender, inspector, title company, etc) were all top-notch, thorough, and timely. After closing, Lisa didn’t just disappear as some agents might, but continued to help us out with our move. We closed about 45 days before we arrived at the home, so she assisted us with several things such as carpet replacement in the mean time. We highly recommend using Lisa Goodfriend as your Realtor!
