As a parent I am very concerned about the safety of my children.  Ben was very cognizant of these concerns as well.  He pointed out things that I should pay extra attention to as a result.  Ben made sure that I was aware of the time constraints involved in buying a foreclosure home but, also encouraged me to take the time to research the schools in the area before making an offer.

This was one of the biggest events in my life and I am extremely grateful that Ben was there for the whole process.  He made a huge impact on my sanity as well as that of my children and the people around me.  Ben made this a very easy transition and something to look forward to and be excited about instead of something to worry and stress about.  I cannot thank him enough! Nicole Seidel

I finally found my dream home thanks to Daniel Dominguez!  Daniel was very patient, as we changed our minds several times, and definitely cares about helping people find just the right home!  He was always courteous and professional and just a phone call away.  This is the second time I have used Daniel to find a home and would not think of using anyone else.  I really can't say enough about him.  He has my sincere appreciation for all he's done.  He's the best!  Liz Cronkhite

Ngoc Do & Daniel Dominguez helped me to sell my property, when I thought it would never be sold.  They are smart & knowledgeable.  They do what it takes to make closing happen.  They were relaxed, professional, maturity & applied a systematic approach to the sale of my home.  They know what they are doing and brought results without overwhelming promises, like other agents I had dealt with.

They were always there when I had questions or concerns.  They answered all of my concerns quickly and provided me with the knowledge needed to understand the process and make the best decisions.  I really felt like I was working with friends and people who cared about my interests.  The bottom line is that they made the deal happen when others could not.  Maher Dahdour

Lauren Bailey was our agent. She was fantastic, professional, fun and always available. She worked with us to identify the best property in our price range and market. Through multiple offers and 4 months of looking, she always had our best interest in mind. Our first home buying experience was excellent, solely due to Lauren and the Ngoc Do team!  Jim and Courtney Spearman

We were referred to Lauren from friends who had good experiences with her and  couldn't have been more pleased. She was straight forward with us about what to expect and gave us her honest opinion of the places we looked at. When we decided to make an offer, it so happened Lauren was on a much-deserved vacation. Ngoc Do and his team, particularly Gurdeep, showed what a team they were. Gurdeep stepped in seamlessly to help us with the contract and other steps, and both she and Lauren made sure we were well informed and well-prepared for the process. We are extremely pleased with how it all went and would gladly recommend Lauren and the Ngoc Do team. Jen Pekkinen and Dave Kaye

I bought during the midst of the credit crisis when the banks and the FHA seemed apprehensive to provide anyone with a loan no matter how good their job or credit. This was certainly my experience. Despite having excellent credit, a decent down payment, and a well-paying job, obtaining a loan was not easy. However, it would have been impossible without Lauren Bailey to guide me through the process.

Lauren has many fantastic attributes as a buyer's agent. Her greatest strength, however, is her positive outlook and dogged willingness to make closing a reality. When all seemed bleak, Lauren frequently called to offer reassurance. Her positive outlook an how things might unfold kept me motivated to continue my home search and prepare for closing in the home I selected. But even before there were difficulties in obtaining a loan, Lauren held fast to making sure I found a home that fit my needs and my somewhat colorful personality. When I felt that obtaining financing for the home would be difficult, Lauren assured me that she would get the deal done. In fact, this is exactly what she did.  Timothy Foden
 

Ngoc Do is the best realtor we have ever worked with. He is always courteous, professional, works all hours and brokers deals that leave all parties happy. He went above and beyond in his efforts to sell our home and help us buy one. He deserves all the praise he gets! George and Irene Griffin

After our home had been on the market for 1.5 years without a single offer and minimal overt efforts by 2 realtors, we took our house off the market for the winter of 2007 and began to interview realtors.  We were feeling rather hopeless and that our dream of retirement would probably need to be postponed for another year or two while the market completed its anticipated continued downturn.

After 7 interviews, we chose Ngoc Do & Associates and what a difference it made!  Immediately, the team arrived and offered invaluable information on ways to enhance our home and to discuss marketing strategies.  Amy found creative ways to stage the home to highlight its strengths and gave suggestions for improvements that would make the home more appealing to a wider clientele.  Ngoc, Gurdeep, Dan & Lauren deliberated over marketing techniques.  Ngoc and Dan even moved furniture.  Immediately, showings increased as prospective buyers were personally contacted.  We were also provided a beautiful web viewing of our home and numerous advertisements via mailings and local newspapers.  Our neighbors commented several times on the ongoing newspaper ads.  As we received comments on the lot,  the team researched way to improve the landscape and solicited bids and suggestions for our review.  Ngoc provided realistic market information and consulted with us as we evaluated the pros and cons of a variety of decisions.  After a little over 2 months on the market, we had a contract!  Once the contract was signed Dan handled all of the details.  He scheduled all of the necessary inspections and the paperwork.  We were never inconvenienced or had to take a day off from work.

We cannot say enough about this team of professionals, who, not only marketed our home in a superlative manner, but offered support, feedback, and encouragement to us every step of the way.  They are in no way your "typical" realtor.  We cannot thank them enough for helping us to pursue our dream.
Don & Beverly Chestnutt

With the severe downturn in the housing market, I knew I needed the  best agent with the most aggressive marketing plan, someone who could get things done.  There was no question that I would list my inventory and personal residence with Ngoc Do & Associates.

They sell more "million dollar homes" in the area than anyone else.  Over the past 10 years as a professional builder, I have come to realize that Ngoc Do and his team are the very best at what they do.  They're always a step ahead of the market, know the inventory intimately and have the ability to make things happen when no one else can. 

With the two most recent sales they completed successfully for me, the traffic was great.  He and his team showed my house more than all the other agents combined.  Because of the large number of sales they do, Ngoc and his team come into contact with the majority of prospective buyers in the market for a luxury home.  I've also come to realize they have the largest network of cooperating buyer agents in the area. 

Ngoc is a seasoned negotiator and has an incredible marketing package tailored specifically for luxury homes.  He and his team are truly excited about each and every home they list, know who should buy and why, and most importantly how to reach those people.  Plus they know how to stage a home to bring out the emotional component in a buyer's decision to move forward.  In these difficult times, I certainly want Ngoc and his team on my side, representing me, not the other side.
Bradley Hibbard, President of HBI Custom Homes

Today we sold our home and we begin another chapter in our lives.  In the extremely competitive housing market that currently characterizes Northern Virginia, we knew that selling our home would not be easy.  But from the moment we met Ngoc Do, explained our goals and gave our confidence to him, we absolutely knew that we were in the hands of the most capable, hard working and professional real estate agent in Northern Virginia and perhaps the United States.  His reputation as one of America's top real estate sellers comes as no surprise once you get to know Ngoc.  His marketing strategy, home preparation, continual market analysis and recommendations ensured that our home sold quickly, below the current average for time on the market, and or maximum dollar amidst strong competition.

Just as Ngoc Do provided us with service to a degree that we never imagined possible, so too did all the co-workers of Ngoc Do & Associates at Long and Foster.  The team that Ngoc has assembled truly reflects his own personal drive, commitment, and trustworthiness.  And just as he and his team have provided us unparallel results in selling our home, they are now doing the same as we search for the next.

Indeed, working with Ngoc Do & Associates has been a totally gratifying experience.  But just as important as the superb results have been are the friendships that we have made with Ngoc and every person on his team.  We have made a friend for life, and encourage every potential home seller or home buyer to place your trust in him as well.  You will be glad you did! 
Chuck and Patrizia Grenchus

It seems hard to believe that it has been a month since we closed on our beautiful home on Duvon Place.  It still seems like a dream to us.  A dream that could not have come true without an exceptional amount of behind-the-scenes hard work, innumerable phone calls, and a fair amount of understanding and support from your team.  It was always a pleasure to speak with you or any of your team members, no matter how many times we called or how trivial some of our questions or concerns may have been.  Never did you or any of your team make us feel like we were interrupting you or were a bother.  In fact, it was frequently a call from you or your office that would answer a question we were wondering about.

I am sure that over your years of experience in the real estate business you have encountered almost every situation imaginable.  For Yvonne and I, this was a unique and somewhat trying experience, as we encountered so many obstacles in the process of purchasing this wonderful home, due to to the unique circumstances surrounding the sale.  We could not have succeeded in this process without your vast experience and unending patience.  We will always remember you and your team and the efforts you made to help us.

The work on the home is progressing nicely.  The deck is being built, the fence is being completed and the grass is growing in full and green.  By the time we move in, in July, we will truly have a dream home.  When we get moved in, we would like to have you over to enjoy a barbecue & movie, to celebrate.

We are thankful that you so fully immersed yourself into this project and were so persistant and supportive in your efforts.  Your professional, yet friendly approach made this an enjoyable experience and we feel like we have made a lasting friendship during this process.  Thank you!
Aaron & Yvonne Stack

I'm so glad I finally met and worked with Ngoc Do and his team.  Hiring Ngoc Do & Associates was the best real estate decision I've ever made.  After nearly a year of trying to sell my home in the most difficult real estate market anyone of us has ever experienced, it became obvious to me that I needed help from the best realtor in the South County area of Fairfax County.

Like everyone else, I had seen their listings in all the local newspapers, received their glossy full color postcards in the mail and marveled at their extraordinary digital virtual tours.  Often, when I drove home from work, I saw their directional signs leading to yet another one of their new listings.  I watched as they showed their clients my home and others in the community.  They sold their listings and others in the neighborhood.  I went on their website and read about the the experiences of other clients.  In the end, I realized it is not just the real estate company or the office that matters; it is the individual agent and their team's support that truly matters.

After I met with Ngoc Do, I finally realized that selling real estate is not as simple as I thought.  He and his team just make it seem simple and effortless.  Now that they have sold my home with multiple contracts at list price and I've had the opportunity to witness firsthand what they do to sell a home, I am utterly amazed.  I can tell you they're not going to advertise how they work and what they do to sell a home.  They're more concerned with marketing their clients' listings and getting them sold.  You'll just need to meet them and work with them to find out what I and so many others already know.  Their strategy and marketing plan are truly amazing.  Their integrity and work ethic takes client services to an astonishing new level.
Mike Sin

Thank you for your excellent services in the sale of our home in Vienna, VA.  As you recall, we received five offers in the first week.  Your expert negotiation strategies quickly guided us to a bidding war in this otherwise tough buyer's market.  As a result, we not only negotiated excellent terms, but we netted more than we expected, more than area comparables, and 11% above our own hired appraisal amount.  All of our neighbors were impressed with the results too!

In particular, your availability and cheerful attitude eliminated any stress and made our side of the process educational, easy and even exciting. Furthermore, while under contract, a single phone call with your network of repair professionals took care of all our inspection items economically and without a glitch. Thank you again for your assistance in this major financial transaction. Jamie & Calyce Magee

Lauren was great.  Thoughtful and professional, she very patiently worked with me in order to not only find the absolute right new home for me but also to secure the requisite financing through the Veteran's Administration.  Notably, even post-closing we have still kept in regular touch.  This is my second home purchase, and I have not been disappointed.  I would recommend Lauren and the Ngoc Do team to anyone wanting to either buy or sell a home in the great DC area.
Ralph W Turner III

We were extremely happy with the service provided by Ngoc Do & Associates on the recent sale of our home.  They always kept our best interests in mind and represented us in a professional manner.

The NDA team is very knowledgeable of current trends in the housing market.  With their knowledge we were able to list our home at an appropriate price and it was sold within a week.

The team members did an excellent job updating us with all contract offers and advising us on how to proceed in a manner most beneficial to us.  They made certain that our closing went smoothly without any surprises.

NDA is truly a great real estate team.  They were all very helpful, professional and were willing to assist us and answer any questions that we had.  We will definitely seek their services in the future.
Vuong Huong

Your help was outstanding and was invaluable to me while selecting a home.  Thanks for your honesty and integrity.  I would recommend you to any new arrivals to my office or friends that might be seeking a new home.  Your team is top notch.
MSG James Baker

We cannot thank you enough for your help during and before our home purchase.  You have a wonderful staff and your help was and is greatly appreciated.
Everett & Wanda McAllister

I am pleased to commend Ben Dominguez on a job well done.  Though anxious to take advantage of the current down market as a first time home buyer, I was also naturally very skeptical.  Thankfully, Ben was patient, informative and accessible throughout the entire process.  He recommended locations based on his knowledge of the NOVA area and even acted as an intermediary when I had questions regarding lending procedures.  I would certainly recommend this gentleman to any friend, or associate in search of a knowledgeable realtor who emphasizes client service as a core business value.  Most importantly, I am very happy with my purchase.
Ed Hall

We want to convey our sincere appreciation for all that you did to assist us with the recent purchase of our townhouse.  Your professionalism, knowledge of the market and suggestions all contributed to our overall feeling of confidence and peace of mind.

Finding someone willing to take time to listen to our needs, while keeping our interests in mind meant a great deal to us.  It was great working with a realtor who is so committed and passionate about what he does for his clients.

Your extensive real estate experience combined with your professional manner and integrity made it pleasurable to have you acting on our behalf.  Also, your insight, guidance and recommendations on pricing strategies, strengths and weaknesses of potential homes, knowledge of neighborhoods, knowledge on quality of construction and finishings were all very valuable in our thinking.  Once again, thank you for a job well done.  Your customer service is absolutely the best.

Furthermore, your pleasant personality, unbelievable patience, negotiation capabilities, attention to detail, dependability and drive would definitely rate you as a 10+ and we would be honored to recommend you to friends and family should the opportunity present itself.

In summary, Ben, you were a breath of fresh air.  You were able to manage the purchase of our townhouse with exemplary service and a friendly demeanor, which made us feel in control and 'in the driver's seat'. On behalf of Chris and myself, we thank you so very much for making our buying experience a successful venture.
Christopher & Carol McCleary

We would like to applaud Ngoc & his team for the hard work that was put forth in the marketing & sale of our home.  The entire process was nearly painless, even in this very difficult market.

Ngoc & his team held several open houses that attracted many prospective buyers.  We appreciate all of the hard work and attention to every detail involved in selling our home.  We were updated several times a week with the new advertisements, details about new prospective buyers & feedback that was received about our home.  Even though we know NDA works with a large number of buyers and sellers they always made us feel as if we were their only clients.

We are happy with the new home that Ngoc Do helped us to purchase, but if we ever decide to move again, we will certainly use no team other than Ngoc Do & Associates.
Pat & Jim Campbell

David and I are very grateful for the professional way in which the sale of our home was managed.  When we first met with Ngoc Do, every detail was explained to us so we knew just what to expect.  Soon after our first meeting we were contacted by Ngoc's professional stager, Tammie, who explained she would help us prepare our home for sale.  She suggested a few updates we could make to the home and then took things from there.  She accentuated the best parts of our home to appeal to the widest range of buyers.  We were already living in our new home so Tammie completely furnished and decorated the home with Ngoc's personal home furnishings inventory.  It showed beautifully!

During our first open house, we received fantastic feedback from everyone that saw the home.  Two days later, we were presented with several contracts!  We were even given the opportunity to meet the couple who ended up buying our home and they are lovely.  This entire experience has been wonderful!
Dave & Linda Fluke

Thank you for all of your support and guidance over the past few months as Jenny and I purchased our new home.  Throughout a process that is, at best, cumbersome to a seasoned home buyer and incredibly overwhelming to a first-time home buyer, you remained engaged and supportive at every step along the way.  You did more than go through the motions of the process, but instead took a step back to help us understand what the motions were and the underlying purpose behind them - an incredibly valuable service that is, unfortunately, in short supply these days.  You were always responsive and, above all else, used our best interests and needs to drive your recommendations.  In my opinion, anyone can get a real estate license, put signs in a yard, and show potential home buyers properties.  You went miles beyond and clearly leveraged a blend of real estate savvy and years of expertise to help us not only get a great deal, but get the best deal possible for the property.

Thanks again, Ngoc, for everything that you have done for us.  Please feel free to extend our thoughts of gratitude to Dan, Jerry, and everyone else on the team.  You can rest assured that we will reach out to you when the time comes for us to purchase our next home.

Lastly, I encourage you use me as a referral and share these thoughts with any prospective customer.

Here's to a safe and happy holiday for you and your family, and a prosperous new year.  Danny & Jenny Zambito

We selected Gurdeep Mangat to help us sell our home after interviewing several realtors, including realtors recommended to us by other people.  We could not have made a better choice!  She sold our home for a good price in a very difficult market.  She provided excellent and timely advice for the sale and took care of every step of the process.  Since that time she has helped us with leases on our rental properties and found us outstanding tenants.  Gurdeep understands the real estate market in Northern Virginia and has been able to provide excellent advice on competitive pricing of sales and rentals as a result.  She also works tirelessly morning, noon and night and is a terrific negotiator!  We are experienced property owners and have known several realtors over the years.  Gurdeep is someone we can recommend with confidence to anyone buying, selling or renting a home.  Jan & Steve Carey 

Gurdeep, you are amazing!  We greatly appreciate all your hard work on our behalf.  Experience has been much easier because of your expertise.  No wonder you are #1.  Our warmest thanks to the entire team.  Each was just so effective.  You are the best.  John & Margaret Spencer 

 Gurdeep, you are my best realtor.  Al Price

You are wonderful and so very easy to work with. You sold my home (at the worst time) in less than a month and got more $$$ than either of us hoped for. You helped me purchased the new home and saved me lots of $$$ from the builder. You are a delight!!! Kay B Young

Camille and I would like to thank you for your assistance with the recent sale of our home. The whole process was very smooth and, except for the quick sale, no surprises. It really was an enjoyable experience. We would gladly recommend you to our friends. Bob McNeil
 

Nwe and I just wanted to say how absolutely grateful we are about the marvelous job you did representing us on the sale of our home. Your professionalism, attention to detail, dedication and hard work was truly the difference maker in a market that was no longer a friend of the seller. You are a true professional! Nwe and Vinroy Douglas

Gurdeep is indeed the finest realtor with whom I've ever worked. A consummate professional, during my second home purchase, she always had my best interest at heart. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to work with a conscientious, truly caring person who knows the real estate business inside and out. Mark W. Adams

We couldn't have asked for more professional and responsive service than we got from working with Ngoc Do. Until we worked with Ngoc, we honestly thought that Realtors did little more than put up a sign, call you periodically and hope for the best. Ngoc was exceptionally proactive in marketing our home. He took the time to find out about our needs and established clear, realistic expectations about how to sell our home. He developed a detailed market plan that took into account both the strengths and challenges of our unique situation. When we received an offer at asking price, Ngoc also worked tirelessly to ensure we got the best deal possible coming out of the negotiations. I would recommend Ngoc's services without hesitation or reservation to anyone who wants a Realtor who takes his clients concerns as seriously as they do. Jonathan and Amy Bennett

Cristina and I were worried about the effect that the housing market in Virginia would have on the selling of our home in the winter of 2007. Your understanding of the market, careful preparation and keen eye on presenting the home helped us sell within 10 days despite a down market during the dead on winter. We could not have done it without your expertise and hard work. We will be forever grateful for your guidance. Cristina and Paul Jenny

Thank you so much for the checklist and everything you've done. We must say you are the best agent we've ever met. James and Phuong Pham

You did any excellent job at selling my house and finding the new one I always wanted. Since I'm disabled, all your extra hard work made my move possible. Without your help, I'm sure I would still be in my old home. Jerry Haller

You are an excellent Realtor. I will recommend you to everyone. Amy and Keith Green

Today we settled into our new home.  For us, it is a dream come true.  We kept our previous house and rented it out.  The entire process was supervised by our Realtor, Ngoc Do.  Our search for a new home started eight months ago.  Initially when we searched alone, the process intimidated us and we felt lost in the maze of procedures and necessary steps that we had to accomplish.  Then we met Ngoc Do and we knew we were in absolutely good hands moving forward.  His patience and continuous efforts to match our requests and inform us of the realities of the market made our dream come true.  He knows the market, understood our needs, and suggested the best way to achieve and overcome any complications.  Working together with his team and using all the information that they gathered for us, he managed the entire process in the most meticulous and outstanding way.  The whole team worked together like a fine tuned watch.  They updated us regularly and kept us a step ahead.  At times, when we felt lost in our huge accomplishment, it was reassuring to see Ngoc and his team always thinking about us and assisting us to overcome any hardship of the moment.  Now, we are very proud to say that we not only have gained an exceptional Realtor for life, but also a very good friend.  Long and Foster should be glad and proud to have Ngoc Do & Associates as one of their elite Realtor teams.  Thank you Ngoc.  Thank you everyone on Ngoc's team.  Thank you Long and Foster. Dan and Catalina Ioan

We wanted to thank you for all the time and effort you put in getting us our home. We're really enjoying it and look forward to working with you again in the future. Kerry and Christopher Hunt

You did a fantastic job for us. Chris Jabs

Our sincere thanks to you for working so hard at selling our home, helping us every step of the way and finding us a new home. George and Jane

When it's time to move again, you will certainly be the one to sell our house. Melinda and Terry Weimer

We have bought and sold several homes in the Washington, D.C. area over the past 27 years. NDA professionals were by far some of the best real estate agents we have ever dealt with. They put together an impressive marketing plan to sell our home and continued to advertise and show the property months after the property was listed. They persevered during the slow times and never let up. Likewise, they stayed positive throughout the entire process. They were extremely professional and thorough, following up on every lead with each potential buyer. They managed the entire process from the listing agreement to the closing. We highly recommend utilizing their services to buy or sell a home. Doug and Nancy Oby

I have purchased 8 houses in my lifetime from numerous realtors around the world. You are at the top of my best realtor list and I will never forget your happy attitude, loyalty and sincerity in looking out for my welfare. I would choose your services again and again when I purchase my next home in the Metropolitan Washington area. I will definitely recommend you to the best of best friends. Thomas Napier

You did an excellent job of guiding me through the process of selling my home in a very difficult market. Not only did you offer advice and strategies to make my property more marketable, but also kept a positive attitude that we would find the right buyer. Your team of dedicated professionals was always available to assist me in any way possible. I would highly recommend you as a realtor for anyone contemplating selling a home. Jeanne Vargo

I'm writing to thank you for your help, patience and guidance throughout our home purchase. We will be recommending you to anyone we know looking to purchase, and even to those just thinking about it. If we ever need real estate services in the future, we will definitely be talking to you first. Michael and Stephanie Swearingen

This was our first home purchase, so we approached the idea of a buyer's agent with more than a little trepidation.  With Ngoc, however, we were completely at ease.  He is, first and foremost, honest and values integrity more than making a quick buck.  He is also willing to go the extra mile for clients; having shown us more than 40 homes his enthusiasm to help us find exactly what we wanted never waned.  Once we made an offer, he didn't disappear, but stayed totally engaged (I remember him crawling around in the attic on a scorching day in July to check on a required repair).  Would we recommend Ngoc?  Most assuredly. Alan & Dimitra Tripp

You are amazing!  We greatly appreciate all your hard work on our behalf.  Experience has been much easier because of your expertise.  No wonder you are #1.  We've dealt with many realtors around the country and we can say they have a lot to learn from you. Our warmest thanks to the entire team.  Everyone was just so effective.  You are the best! Jack & Maggie Spence

My wife Janice and I would like to thank you for assisting us in selling our property in VA last summer.  Ngoc, we know that you have the magic hands and thank God you came at the right time to close this page in our life.  We are now living happily in Illinois.  Should anyone need a realtor in the Washington, DC area be assured that your name will always come first.  Again, thank you for your help.
Anani & Janice Hoegnifioh

I just wanted to make you aware of our experience in working with one of your associates, Ben Dominguez. My wife and I began looking for a home and contacted Ben on a specific property. Ben was very responsive and efficient in setting up an appointment to view the home. In the following weeks, we went on to view another property and after a few days of thinking things over, we decided to suspend our search and see how the market played out. We spoke to Ben about our decision and he graciously took the news and politely wished us well and asked us to give him a call whenever we wanted to start looking again.

Several months later, we did just that and, once again, Ben was very responsive to our request. He showed us a number of properties around Northern Virginia and he was always more than happy to help us, providing us knowledge of his past experience and letting us know about things to look for as well as things to look out for. We eventually purchased a home and could not be happier. We are just ecstatic about our first home.

Needless to say, Ben was an absolute joy to work with. His professionalism and commitment to us was really something to behold. More than once, he offered to come to our apartment when we had to meet with him face to face, eliminating the needs for us to take additional time out of our day. Also, we requested to see properties at all hours of the day, yet Ben always made the time to accommodate us. He guided us through the entire process with courtesy and kindness and we felt he went above and beyond his call of duty. The service he provided us was outstanding and we felt someone should know about it. We wanted you to know how much we appreciate being able to work with such a fine individual. If anyone I know plans on looking for any tope of property whatsoever, you can bet I'll be pointing them in Ben's direction. Samuel A. Garza
