Went Above and Beyond
We are so incredibly lucky and appreciative to have worked with Chelle Bravo. We are first time home buyers, and she truly went above and beyond to make our experience easy, comfortable, and exciting for many reasons.
From the moment we met Chelle, we knew we were in extremely capable hands. Her exceptionally kind, charismatic, upbeat, and thoughtful demeanor made it feel as though we had been friends with her for years, which made the painstaking process of buying a home actually enjoyable and less nerve-racking. She consistently took steps to ensure that our best interests were prioritized and her constant consideration for our needs proved that Chelle always puts the buyers first before the sale.
Another aspect that we really appreciated was Chelle's constant communication and availability. We talked day and night through the buying process. In this market, we needed to move lightning fast with everything, and she always kept up. We knew that we could text her at 7 am or 11 at night, and Chelle always responded promptly. She met us on the fly when we randomly found a house, and quickly pivoted when times needed to change.
Perhaps the thing we appreciated most was Chelle's honesty and genuine, sincere effort to look out for us. She never hesitated to be honest with us about the pros and cons of a home, and we never once felt pushed into a house we didn't love. She honored our opinions and our process and masterfully facilitated viewings and decisions so that we felt informed, but in control.
I would highly recommend Chelle for any buyer because of her professionalism, diligence, and exceptional kindness and consideration. She found us the perfect first home to start our life together, and we are so incredibly grateful. Thank you, Chelle!
Stress Free Process
From start to finish, Chelle made the sale and purchase process completely seamless. Buying and selling a house is supposed to be stressful, but Chelle made the process stress free. We LOVE her!
Extremely Knowledgeable
Chelle is extremely knowledgeable about the RVA market. She is a wonderful person and beyond helpful
I love her gumption and tenacity!
I can't say enough about my experience with Mrs. Bravo. Her innate ability to filter my dreams for a home through casual conversation were beyond impressive; and her respect for what I explicitly wanted was granted. I love her gumption and tenacity. Those qualities are what ultimately made the sale of my home that was initially listed as "for rent". Beyond those effective qualities, Chelle also shows you that she is listening. I have a geriatric, large breed, dog who is struggling with stairs. A lot of homes we visited had very steep and narrow stairways. I must have mentioned that my dog would have a hard time with those. To my truly heart felt surprise, one of the features she was so excited about with the home that I ended up buying was a less steep, and wide stairway. Words will never express how grateful I am to have had Chelle Bravo as my Realtor.
Not a single unscrupulous bone in her body!
I have always been markedly apprehensive about the home buying experience; the magnitude of the decision, the red tape, and not least of all finding a trustworthy real estate agent. In that regard, I count myself as extremely fortunate to have had Chelle as my agent and guide for the endeavor. In fact, I doubt I would have seen it through to the end without her. From the very beginning, she listened to me. She listened to what I was looking for in a home; she listened to my many (and I do mean many) concerns; she listened when I asked questions. She regarded every one of those questions as valid and answered each one carefully, drawing on what I could tell was an encyclopedic knowledge of her field. On the rare occasion that she didn’t have the answer I was looking for, she was very quick to find out or otherwise direct me to the person who would. But most importantly, Chelle swiftly became someone I knew I could trust. Perhaps my greatest fear in entering the home buying arena was falling prey to a predatory agent who would pressure me into buying the first, most expensive home I was approved for – someone who was only interested in finishing the deal and saw me as just another commission. It was apparent from our first conversation that Chelle simply is not that type of person. She truly took her time and exercised patience (and I mean, A LOT of patience) in helping me find first the area and then the home that was not only right for me but also well within my budget. Above all else, I found her to be a very kind and warmhearted person. I doubt she has a single unscrupulous bone in her body.
She went above and beyond!
Chelle is an amazing realtor! She was so helpful with finding us our new home. She had gone above and beyond for us. I would recommend her to anyone. She made the home buying experience fun and easy!!
Chelle did an excellent job
I began with Chelle Bravo by discussing plans to downsize and finding property in Hanover County before listing my home. Chelle immediately started with property searches which quickly led to multiple options and my final decision to build. With a timeline in place Chelle coordinated the sale of my home beginning with explaining the process, professional photographs, listing and holding an open house, contract negotiations, sale and all the way through close. Chelle did an excellent job through the entire process.
An Absolute Dream
Chelle was an absolute dream to work with. She listened to my wants and dreams, and didn't waste my time showing me houses I couldn't afford. With her help I was able to find a house in my price range in the area I hoped for. She was extremely easy to communicate with, she was never pushy, and gave me time to make decisions. I have recommended her to several people already, and I'll continue to recommend her again and again.
Knowledgeable, Professional and Willing to help
Chelle is great! She listened to what we were looking for in a new home and helped us find the perfect location. She also listed our previous residence. Chelle is knowledgeable, professional and willing to help in any way possible.
Incredible Agent!
I wanted to relay how incredibly thankful and impressed I am to have been able to work with one of your agents, Chelle Bravo.
From the first day of working with her, Chelle was incredibly professional, approachable & accessible, clear in her communication, and most importantly was a fierce advocate during this process. As a first time home buyer, there were many moving steps in this process and it would have been very easy to feel overwhelmed, which is why I feel particularly fortunate to have worked with Chelle, who made things clear and very straightforward. She took the time to show many homes and got a feel for what we were looking for, and then guided us through the process while being as strategic as possible, both with making offers on homes as well as how to respond to the seller's needs.
Our home purchase was a complicated one because of a joint mortgage, a very uncompromising seller, navigating around an existing lawsuit against the seller before closing, as well as rental agreements and appraisal needs with contractors. It was fairly complex and required close attention to detail. Without Chelle's guidance, I don't know that I would be happily moving into my first home due to these complications. She led the way in terms of explaining details and then advocated strongly for our needs. Up until we walked out of closing, Chelle was there guiding the way.
I feel incredibly lucky to have worked with Chelle Bravo during this process, and wanted to relay this positive experience to you, as one of your agents made a big impact on my first time home buying experience.
Big thanks to Chelle, and a thanks to you for having such an incredible agent in your firm!
