Ariana Gillette

I had been thinking about buying a place for over a year and felt overwhelmed by the process, the lingo, and just where to start.  I wanted to make an investment and start earning equity in a home of my own, but I didn't want to be pushed into a decision.  During this time, it felt like everything was above my budget or that I couldn't afford the down payment and upfront fees that come with buying a home. After over a year of searching, and a principal who wanted to give his teachers resources about housing in Loudoun County, I was finally able to meet Ariana and Angie!  They answered all of my questions and were able to make me feel comfortable and confident in my home buying decision.  Ariana & Angie were quick to respond to texts, emails, calls, and everything else in between.  They have a wealth of contacts within Loudoun County and were able to make the process easy and seamless.  I know if it weren't for the Teacher Home Benefits program and all of the opportunities it provided, I would still be searching for the perfect starter home for me and my adorable puppy.

Ariana is just fantastic! As first time home buyers we weren’t quite sure what to expect as we searched for our dream home but we were in good hands with Ariana. She was honest and thoughtful about each home we viewed and carefully looked for houses that had most, if not all of the things we wanted. Having worked in real estate for a long time, she is very knowledgeable and will no doubt be a great asset for anyone looking to navigate through the home buying process in what is a very competitive market (Nothern VA). Highly recommended!

We were a bit nervous about selling our house, but Ariana took all the worry away and told us to focus on moving into our newly built house and on enjoying our new neighborhood. Ariana made it so easy for us; she scheduled her trusted contractors to prepare our old house to go on the market, and we really didn’t have to do anything. We received offers within hours, and after just a few days, we had 6 offers to review! Ariana reviewed the offers with us, explained the pros and cons, and provided excellent advice. She used her expertise to help us select an offer that allowed us to go to closing in only 12 days, and she guided us through the whole process. Ariana was right — we had no reason to worry!! We would definitely recommend Ariana!

Ariana was wonderful. She had great energy, excellent contacts, and was terrifically responsive (answered our messages within seconds). We were very satisfied. Working with Ariana was easy and a pleasure. Happy to recommend her!

Ariana Gillette helped me buy my first home (a condo). We initially connected over love of dog rescues, which is a good start. She was up front from the beginning about what the process would be like and explained different paperwork that I would see and what my rights were as a buyer. Ariana showed sensitivity to my current position in life when helping me search for homes. She made sure to point out locations that she thought might be concerns, safety-wise, while also pointing out good neighborhoods or places that would be dog-friendly. Ariana was helpful in evaluating the shape a condo was in, identifying what might need some work sooner or later. Once I chose the home I wanted to make an offer on, there was not much to negotiate on, but Ariana still identified some things she felt would benefit me to ask for. Throughout the process, she was easily available when needed. Ariana was great in all of these ways despite my budget being on the lower end - it was not an issue with her at all.
