Testimonies

"Gayle was great and I could not say it enough! As a first time home buyer, he helped me navigate the home buying process and helped me with a contract that had fallen through with another agent. Gayle was always willing and available to show me properties. He offered great advice and helped me to negotiate the best price for my new place."
     Samantha Farren - Alexandria VA

"Gayle Bailey is the consummate real estate professional.He knows the market, is incredibly responsive and understands that home-buying is an emotional experience.

Because Gayle really listened to us, he sent us listings that matched our specific needs. And if we saw a property we wanted to visit, he made the necessary arrangements so that we could see it that same evening. That dedication and commitment is why we now own the house of our dreams.

Gayle expertly guided us through the entire process, taking the time to answer all our questions. He truly went above and beyond to ensure that we knew he was with us every step of the way.

We're happy to give Gayle our highest recommendation. He's a real professional who truly cares about his clients."
     Rochelle Levy - Dunn Loring VA

"Gayle has taken great care of us as we navigate through the purchase of our new home. His combination of knowledge and charismatic personality have been an asset to us, and has allowed us to know that we can completely trust him. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an agent!"
     Harrison & Lindsay Briggs - The Broadlands VA

"We worked with the Bailey Team for both the sale of our townhouse and purchase of our single family house. We sold our townhouse right away but spent four weeks looking for our new house. We are very pleased with our new house. The Bailey Team sent us listings every day with recommendations. Gayle Sr. and Gayle Jr. were always available for showings. They always gave us honest appraisals of the properties and were very knowledgeable and approachable about all aspects of the sale and purchase details of both house transactions. They also have an extensive network f finance, title and legal experts as well as inspectors and contractors to assist us with all the aspects of the home buying and selling process. Above all Gayle Sr. and Gayle Jr. are very personable and patient. We highly recommend the Bailey Team for the sale and the purchase of your new home."
     Jim & Sharon Keeven - Chantilly & Reston VA

"My husband and I worked with Gayle to purchase our first home. We had no idea where to start and Gayle was able to calm our nerves, educate us on the process, and help us find our first home! I would (and have) recommend Gayle to anyone who is searching for a new home.We had spoken with a couple other agent's but nobody compared to Gayle's knowledge, abilities, communication, and overall experience. When we move again, we won't think twice about calling Gayle!"
     Leah Potosky & Chris Ferezen- Haymarket VA

"I have had three chances to work with Gayle and the Bailey Team over the past three years for both purchasing and selling properties. All experiences were positive. Gayle has a great understanding of the market, gets to know his clients and their needs, and provides excellent marketing skills. He is readily available and is always quick to respond to any activities or questions to get the job done. I highly recommend Gayle and the Bailey Team to all."
     Ed Omachel & Jan Dillon - Fairfax & Gainesville VA

"Gayle is super professional, savvy, and responsive. I never had to worry about following up because he always gave updates. He provided lots of good data on comps and the market which helped make my decisions easier. I would recommend him and have!"
     Shelly Price - Leesburg VA

"My husband and I were referred to Gayle when it came time for us to purchase our first home, and I am so happy we worked with him. He made the process smooth and always had our best interest in mind. Gayle never wasted time getting us out to property's we were interested in, and he was quick to act with getting our contract written up and sent up when we made an offer. He treated us like we were his only customer and has exceptional customer service. He was extremely accessible and always accommodated our schedules to meet with us. He was very consultive explaining the process in great detail the entire way, we rarely had questions because he proactively gave us all the right information at the right time. "

"We would highly recommend Gayle, matter of fact we already have to two couples we knew were looking, they are both working with him after meeting him and feeling the same level of confidence in his knowledge and abilities. I will definitely use Gayle in the future if we decide to sell or buy another home!"
     Heath & Laura Shelters- Berryville VA

"When we decided to sell our home last spring, we considered a number of options. With houses moving so quickly in our community, we originally thought it didn't matter who represented us. We would soon learn how complicated things can become. We now know that not all real estate transactions go as expected. And, most importantly, The Bailey Team is prepared to handle the unexpected. It was great to have such experienced professionals on our side - for both the buying of our new home and the selling of our old one."
     Dave & Lisa Rennyson - Centreville, Virginia

"The Bailey Team really came through for us on many levels. Everything they told us to do to prepare our home for sale was right on target. Their pricing suggestion not only helped us reach our asking price, but also got us five offers and $20,000 more than asking price - all in 3 days! One major goal we had was to make sure we secured a rent-back on our current home until our builder completed our new home. They went above and beyond to make sure that happened. The Bailey Team is impressively organized and client-oriented. Our neighbors, friends and family are impressed with the responsiveness, web presence, advice and organization they have seen us get from The Bailey Team."
     Christie & Jason Nader South Riding, Virginia

"The Bailey Team did an excellent job supporting us in the sale of our home. Their professional in-depth knowledge, experience and most importantly price-to-sell strategy afforded us a quick sale at the right price before our home ever reached the MLS. In addition, they provided outstanding support in identifying property for us in a very tough market. We will certainly utilize The Bailey Team for future real estate transactions."
     Steve Kominek Clifton, Virginia

"All around five star effort by The Bailey Team! When a homeowner is selling their home, they of course want to get top dollar from the sale. Most real estate agents, at least in a seller's market, can do this in their sleep. In my opinion, what helps set real estate agents apart is service. The Bailey Team has this down cold. Their staff was awesome! From day one I knew I was in great hands. Most of my questions were answered right away, and my concerns were always addressed in a very prompt and timely manner. I met every deadline, thanks to them. And of course, Gayle and Bonnie Bailey were there for me at every step of the home buying and selling process. Their combined experience alone puts them at the top of their field. Three cheers for The Bailey Team!"
     Frank Wiegand South Riding, VA

"The Bailey Team was a pleasure to work with. Their agents are topnotch and have an extensive knowledge on all aspects of buying a home in Northern Virginia (school districts, commuting, shopping, etc). They are truly a team and someone was always available to meet our schedule and needs. Once we chose a house we closed in two weeks. That's fact. The DC area is a tough market for buyers right now and The Bailey Team has the right people. We appreciate all their help."
    John & Debbie Claxton Centreville, Virginia
 
"Thanks for all your hard work. Your group really impresses us as to how quickly, thoroughly and aggressively you get things done! People's recommendation of The Bailey Team holds true!"
     Todd Butler Centreville, Virginia
 
"Wow! That is the only way we can describe our experience with your firm. Our agent was terrific. She managed to get us a home in Little Rocky Run at a great price with a home inspection contingency, at a time when the seller's market was raging out of control. We could never have done this without her. The rest of The Bailey Team kept us informed throughout and got us to settlement without a single snag. You certainly took the stress out of the home buying process. If we ever decide to move, we know who to call first. Thanks for everything."
     Ann and Andy Timmins Clifton, Virginia
 
"The Bailey Team was referred to us by friends. The Bailey Team was extremely professional and had our best interests in mind - that was obvious. They educated us thoroughly so we could make sound decisions and they moved forward quickly. Our house sold in less than a week for far more than what we listed it for. Closing occurred within two weeks and everything went extremely smooth. These are the best Realtors we have ever dealt with. Would we use them again? Absolutely! Would we refer them to others? In a heartbeat!" 
     Pat & Andy Anderson Centreville, Virginia
 
"I want to say thank you for helping get our house sold both quickly and pain-free. We appreciate the open houses you conducted early on and the quick response in getting the house back on the market when our first contract fell out. We have know Gayle and Bonnie for many years, and I actually competed against them in the early 90s when I was a Realtor myself, prior to moving to the mortgage side of the business. Throughout the years we have seen The Bailey Team signs go up and down and we have read each newsletter as it came out; so when it came time to sell our choice was really not hard at all. However, we did not know of the wonderful help the Baileys have in Peggy Duffy and Marsha Manley. What a pair they are! They were on top of every detail and kept us well informed throughout the process, from the open houses right through to the day of settlement. They couldn't have a better pair of assistants back at the office. Thanks again for making the sale of our house go so smoothly." 
     Larry & Geraldine Curtis Centreville, Virginia

"For years we'd been receiving The Bailey Team's monthly newsletter and were impressed with their knowledge of the Northern Virginia market, particularly in South Riding. Naturally when it came time to sell our home, there was no one else we considered representing us. Their approach to marketing and stellar negotiating skills resulted in a full price plus offer which met our moving timetable. Relocating is hectic enough. We appreciated having such a strong team to handle the selling aspect of that process. We highly recommend The Bailey Team for all real estate needs."
     Kevin and Catherine Bailey South Riding, Virginia

"For years we've been reading The Bailey Team's monthly newsletter, so when it came time to sell our house, there was really no one else we considered representing us. Their approach to marketing and stellar negotiating skills brought far more traffic and more money than we expected at a time of year when real estate is traditionally slow. Moving is hectic enough. It was nice to have such a strong team to handle the selling aspect of that process. We cannot express enough our tremendous satisfaction with the services of The Bailey Team."
     Craig & Susan O'Connor Oakton, Virginia

"We've been reading the South Rider each month and always found the newsletter to be full of helpful information. Naturally, when it came time to sell our home, we called The Bailey Team. They brought us not one, but two contracts, the second one for more than our asking price. We trusted them completely when it came to working on our behalf--they negotiated that second contract for us while we were in Australia! We found The Bailey Team to be professional, competent, and knowledgeable. They were easily accessible and responsive to all our needs. We highly recommend them."
     Eli & Sara Burke South Riding, Virginia
 
"We contracted with The Bailey Team at the end of October 2003 to list our home. While they have a sizable team, my wife and I felt that we were the only clients they had. Most of the time when we called their office with questions or concerns, we were connected to a person. Only one time did I have to leave a message and then we had a response within 10 minutes. While selling a house can be a stressful time, The Bailey Team eliminated it. Their approach to marketing our house resulted in having 45 inquiries on the house and it being sold in three weeks. I would very highly recommend using The Bailey Team for any real estate transaction. Their genuine caring, responsiveness, professionalism, and knowledge of the process and the local housing market is superior to other agencies that we have used in the past."
     Richard Krahe Ashburn, Virginia

"As a former military family, we are experienced movers. Our daughter, who currently works for the army as a civilian, bought her home in Virginia Run with the help of The Bailey Team. We needed to buy a house in Virginia Run as we provide childcare for our seven year old grandson while our daughter is at work and traveling for job-related duties. Her husband was deployed in Iraq. Gayle and Bonnie Bailey took us to see many homes over many weeks in Virginia Run before we decided to buy this one, which happened to be one of their listings. They were patient, professional, and helpful every step of the way. We highly recommend The Bailey Team."
     Capt. Charles S. Stanley, Retired & Gladys Stanley Centreville, Virginia

"For a number of years we had received marketing information from The Bailey Team so when it came time to sell our home, they were obviously the people we thought of. As it turned out, when we first sat down and talked, they said they might be able to put us together with a buyer from their pool of buyer resources. Not only did they have numerous people within their buyer resources, but they sold our home without us even having to put it on the market for exactly what we wanted and under terms that were beautiful for the possession of our new home. We couldn't recommend them enough."
     Paul & Claire Seifert Centreville, Virginia

 "Once again it is with great pleasure that we step up to the microphone and tell you what a wonderful job The Bailey Team did in putting together our latest real estate transaction. We have now worked with them on four separate real estate transactions and are looking forward to working with them on our fifth and as many more as we would do. We couldn't recommend them enough. If you're looking for agents in a league of their own, they're your people."
     James & Lynn Tillman Centreville, Virginia

"As a dual military family, we've spent many years in different locals before deciding to settle in Fairfax County. When we returned to the DC area, we opted to rent in Oakton with long-term plans to purchase as we neared retirement. As we began our research, The Bailey Team's monthly newsletter really impressed us with both the information and insight provided into the Northern Virginia real estate market. It was obvious to us that The Bailey Team had the knowledge and attention to detail we were looking for to assist us. We called them with an extensive wish list for our dream home and neighborhood. They were always patient, professional and attentive to our needs in the house hunting process, and their staff was readily available to respond to all our requests. Most importantly, they respected our needs and input. The Bailey Team found us our perfect home in an incredible setting which met our commuting and neighborhood desires in Brecon Ridge Woods. We give The Bailey Team our highest recommendation for expertise and superb customer service."
