Tell Us Your Story

I couldn't have asked for a better person to work with!

She answered all my questions and numerous texts. Readily got me in to see houses before helping me find my perfect home! She's the best! She even helped me pick my paint color!

Pam Burke

We had the pleasure of both buying and selling our home with Kathleen, and the experience could not have been better.

She advocated for us every step of the way, ensuring our best interests were always represented. We enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in Virginia. The only regret is that our move took us out of state—otherwise, we would have loved to work with her again on our next home purchase in Colorado.

Mitchell Hofstede

Kathleen helped me every step of the way and we had a lot of extenuating circumstances.

She continued to assist, was patient and diligent about all the details to help us close on time but made sure nothing was rushed or sloppy. I would recommend her to my own children!

Cheryl Panas

My husband and I cant say enough wonderful things about Kathleen!

! She is extremely knowledgeable. She had an answer for every one of our many questions and was available every time we needed her. We had multiple offers on our house within 2 days and she knew exactly how to guide us through the complicated and stressful process. She treated us like we were her only clients!! She gave all the expectations and advice (and then some) that got our house sold as quickly as possible with no worries. Not only did she sell our house but she found us our forever dream house!! She is a great person and we consider her our friend!!

Gena Sisson

Working with Kathleen was a dream!

She was so incredibly knowledgeable and savvy and provided so much helpful info during every step of the process. I never had a question that she didn't answer quickly and thoroughly and she even brought up many things I didn't even think to ask about. Anytime there was an unexpected bump in the road she immediately had a plan B, C, & D. She was also so incredibly kind, warm, and fun to be around! I legitimately enjoyed every time I got to meet with her. Kathleen made what can be a very stressful process easy and enjoyable. I'm so thankful to have connected with her and can't say enough great things about our experience with her.

Kathleen is a real go getter!

She had my best interest as her top priority! She worked hard to get the best deal for me on a home that had multiple offers and her efforts paid off! She is very responsive and is always willing to take a call or text and answer any questions.

Kathleen is AWESOME!

I really enjoyed working with Kathleen in finding my new home. She was always very attentive, friendly and helped me maneuver the thriving market where homes were selling quickly. She helped me understand the price ranges I could really afford and how to get as much house as I could for the money. She was very flexible with my requests for showing available home and was prompt in answering my messages, texts or e-mails. She was with me through the entire process making sure everything went smoothly and quickly.

Debbie Holt

Kathleen was great!

She guided us throughout our first home buying experience so well! We were worried we would have to settle with the craziness of the market currently but she was able to find us our DREAM home that checked all the boxes and was in our budget. She was available every step of the way, answering all of our questions (we had a lot). I highly recommend her to anyone, and if we ever need a realtor again in the future I know who to go to!

Isabel Burgess

She was very good at listening and understanding what we were looking for in a home.

She was knowledgeable, very responsive and diligent and a pleasure to work with.

Lynda Fulford

Kathleen was an absolute rockstar realtor during our relocation to Charlottesville!

Even though she was our realtor, it felt more like she was our coach playing offense and defense, cheering us along, and guiding us to what is now our beautiful home! Buying and selling were more of an emotional undertaking than I anticipated, but Kathleen was able to keep our eyes forward and hearts set on what we wanted from the very beginning. I believe we had more curveballs thrown at us than the average buyer and seller but Kathleen got us through with pure confidence and did not hesitate to make sure she had every piece of information necessary in order for us to make those stressful decisions. While her home base is in Charlottesville, she was still willing to sell our house in Fredericksburg AND help us find our new home in the desired Cville area. Even with plenty going on, she was always available to take our calls and often checked in to provide a status, so we always felt informed. She delivered clear expectations even during the unknown of the pandemic and continued to accommodate us the whole way through. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Kathleen and appreciated her patience, perseverance, and support through it all. She fought for us, kept us calm, and didn’t give up on helping us find exactly what we were looking for so needless to say, we are beyond grateful and overjoyed to be settled into our new Charlottesville home!

Sheli Schneider

Kathleen really took the time to understand the "must haves" vs.

the "want to haves". She was extremely knowledgeable of all the areas we looked at (proximity to highways for commuting north, ease of grocery shopping, etc.). She even took into account vets for our dogs, proximity to hospital/urgent care in case of emergency, etc. Her patience in all of the houses we looked at was amazing, and she really helped hone in on the important things what were on our "quality of life" list. When it came down to the financing, paperwork, contracts, inspections, etc. her knowledge and ability to explain what was happening throughout the entire process really put us at ease. She does her homework as far as value, not only of the house itself, but property, neighborhood, location, etc. and again, really helps to understand/illustrate why a home was or wasn't worth asking and what the possibilities may be for negotiating (how long on market, interior, exterior, neighborhood/location, etc.).

Kathleen Long was a pleasure to work with.

Robin Siletzky

It was my first home buying experience and I couldn’t have had a better one!

Kathleen is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, easy to work with, and responsive. She exceeded all of my expectations by far, and I would refer anyone to her!

Mitchell Hofstede

Working with Kathleen Long for the recent purchase of a home on Lake Monticello was genuinely a fantastic experience!

! We were initially referred to Kathleen online thru a listing we happened to find on Zillow, and since that was a first for us, we honestly had initial reservations about who Zillow would refer us to. Then Kathleen phoned us within minutes of clicking on Zillow, and literally within two hours, she personally met us on a Sunday morning for a showing at the home. From there on thru closing last week, Kathleen honestly exceeded all expectations-- she was exceptionally professional, knowledgeable of the market, and incredibly timely and responsive via all mediums-- phone, text and email. Perhaps most importantly, Kathleen's positive personality makes her an absolute delight and blessing to work with!! We would happily work with Kathleen again, and we confidently offer her our highest recommendation for anyone seeking a realtor. Scott and Betsy Rechel

It was a pleasure to work with Kathleen on the purchase of my new home in Virginia.

From start to finish, she was the absolute professional. From our first conversation and throughout our house hunting process, Kathleen was on point. She is highly knowledgeable about the local market and was excellent with the follow-through and the follow-up responses with regard to all of our discussions. Kathleen also went out of her way to ensure that every detail was taken care of from the various inspections to looking into potential issues with the home that I decided on. I am also grateful for Kathleen’s patience and the delightful ways in which she kept me informed along the way and right up to my closing. She is a jewel and I am very happy to have been her client.
