Summary of their experience
We met Chip when we attended an open house at a property where he was the seller's agent. We immediately connected with Chip's personality, which was light and engaging, yet helpful and full of knowledge. We knew we found the buyer's agent for us. He took us to any property we wanted to see up and down our price range over many weeks. He was available to talk, email, or show us properties at night and on the weekends. When we narrowed our search down, he took us back for second and third visits. He never pressured us, and always listened and has a wonderful sense of humor. We are 100% we will use Chip as our agent when we are ready to sell.

Summary of their experience
Chip helped us buy our house in 2005, and then helped us sell our house in 2010. From the first meeting, it was apparent that Chip was an honest broker with a willingness to learn our particulars. When we bought, he was clear about the market, it's possible trend and how it might affect the house (by the way, it all came true...) Then in 2010, he was right there again with all the required facts and even took the extra step and educated us and himself on the Homeowners Assistance Program sponsored by the Corps of Engineers. Bottom line is I would recommend Chip Warner in a heartbeat to anyone, especially relocating into the northern Virginia area.

Summary of their experience
Chip far exceeded our expectations. We moved to Virginia from out of state and Chip provided so much knowledge about the various areas. His use of technology made our search efficient which was so important in the short time we had to house hunt. He tirelessly reviewed and showed properties to us so that we were satisfied with our decision. He drove by schools and stores in the area so we had good feels for the neighborhoods. I could go on and on about how wonderful our experience was and we recommend him to everyone.

Summary of their experience
My husband and I had such a great experience working with Chip as our Realtor. At the time that we decided to purchase a home, we were in the process of planning a wedding and had been introduced to at least three Realtors before meeting Chip. Finally, we met Chip and we felt very comfortable. We didn't feel rushed, pressured or discouraged at any time while working with him. Looking back, I am still impressed at how he managed to assist us with buying a house in such a short time frame as well as accomodate our busy schedule! Chip was also very encouraging when our contracts fell through. He never gave up on us although we certainly felt discouraged at times. Eight years later we are still in the house that we purchased just four days before our wedding. Thanks to Chip, he helped our dream of buying a house come true!

Summary of their experience
I was moving to the area because of work, and I needed to buy a home within a month. Chip provided me with a list of 47 homes that matched my preference. He patiently drove me around Fairfax County and showed me 43 of the homes that I had selected, all in a four day period. He strategically planned for the least amount of driving, by sectioning off the areas to view the homes. The time spent viewing the homes, and the rate of homes viewed per day, were under my control and I was never rushed. He was willing to show me any of the homes again, if I had desired. I had a townhouse ($335,000) on contract on the fifth day, and a month later I had my settlement. During the whole process, he helped saved money with his comparative market analysis ($10,000 savings), and his assistance with my home inspection ($200 savings plus work the owner had to do) and home owners association (HOA) packet review ($600 savings).

Working with Chip was a great experience as a first time homebuyer. Since I am a single mother on one income, I was nervous about the responsibility of owning a home and being able to afford. In order to be in my price range, my search focused on forclosed properties in Prince William County. Everytime I expressed intetest in a property, Chip made sure that I saw it. I was always able to get in touch with him and he responded promptly to phone calls and emails. In total, we saw around 20-30 townhomes some of them more than once as I tried to make a decision. Chip was always patient and supportive of the process. I genuinely felt that he wanted me to make the best decision in selecting a home. He offered practical, honest, and professional advice about the condition of the homes we viewed and things to be wary of as well as good strategies for putting in a winning bid. He had a lot of knowledge of the real estate market and showed me properties that would work with my wish list. He recommended a great morgage lender, settlement agent, home inspector, and repairman to make minor repairs in the home I eventually settled on. It was a very smooth process- even with buying a foreclosure :). Chip is a great agent to work with and makes a process that can be trying and stressful a lot less so.

Chip,
It was truly a pleasure working with you. Many many thanks for your professionalism and your attention to details which have made our purchase of a new home and selling our old one an educational and enjoyable experience.
We would highly recommend your services to our friends and colleagues. Best wishes to you, Chip.

We are very glad we asked Chip Warner of the Warner group to sell our house. The whole process went very smoothly. He first advised us how to prepare the house to make it attractive to buyers without spending a whole lot of money. Turns out the advice worked, because an attractive offer was made within hours after the "For Sale Sign" was pounded in. This was before the first open house was even held. All this took place in a down market. Chip advised us how to structure the contract to avoid possible pitfalls later on. Good thing, as one of those pitfalls came to pass. But because Chip had head it off at the pass, it was a non-issue. Several minor things cropped up before closing. Chip dealt with all of these with common sense solutions that both we and the buyers could readily agree with.
Nothing beats dealing with an experienced, competent, professional!

We could not have done better than Chip Warner. His professionalism, knowledge of our development and jovial manner are a true testament to his broker's goals and mission regarding customer service. Chip was with us every step of the way. He sent us daily E-mail listings and introduced us to Long and Foster's Relocation Services. When two other bids were placed ahead of ours, Chip worked above and beyond the call of duty, day and night, with the lender and settlement companies to ensure that our contract made it through. His sense of humor and grace under pressure made the stress of homebuying much more enriching and fulfilling. Chip is absolutely the very best!

Chip IS definitely the agent that you want/need if you are in the market for a home in the Northern Virginia market. He is overall just an AMAZING agent and a wonderful person! He never gave up on us and helped us buy the perfect home. My husband and I took an extended amount of time deliberating on homes, trying to figure out what area that we wanted to be in, what type of house we wanted/could afford, etc. Chip probably thought that we would never make up our minds but he held in there with us throughout the two years of our indecision. Whenever we called and wanted to see a home, he got us in to see the house as quickly as possible. Whenever we e-mailed or called him with questions, he got back to us immediately with all the answers that we needed to help us make an informed decision. Chip also helped us secure a wonderful mortgage loan officer and the perfect settlement group. With Chip, everything is always taken care of; you don't have to worry about the small stuff or the large stuff, all you have to do is call him. It was a true pleasure working with Chip and in the future, my husband and I hope to work with him again to buy another home.

Chip is the epitome of customer service. My family wanted to move directly into a home upon relocating to the northern Virginia area and Chip made it happen. We were able to take a short househunting trip prior to our move, but were unable to find a place after a snowstorm cut our trip short. This setback didn't stop Chip. He traveled to several locations from Ashburn to Stafford with video camera in tow so we did not have to buy a house sight unseen. Thanks to Chip's efforts, we eventually found a place. We couldn't have done it without him. For a first time home buyer, Chip really made us feel comfortable with the whole process and gave us honest answers to all of our questions.

We asked Chip to find an investment property and we have had it now for 7 years, rented the entire time. We were very pleased with Chip and his professionalism and honesty.

Chip, you exceeded all our expectations and went above and beyond what other real estate agents would do. Traveling to properties and videotaping them saved us from making another trip to the area. You also did a great job of ensuring the entire process ran smoothly...from cradle to grave. Thanks again for a job well done. I'll definitely recommend you to anyone who could benefit from your services.
