Ratings & Reviews

Ginny Hendron

I was impressed with Marc and with his method of selling my home quickly and at an excellent price. I was especially pleased that each member of his team was specialized in a particular area of selling and marketing and answered questions promptly. All team members I was involved with were extremely helpful. The fact that showings were limited to three days made the process less stressfull.

Kathryn Stankovic

Marc Highfill and all of his staff were excellent. We had a very complicated transaction, way out of the norm as the buyer encountered many obstacles, some of their own making, but Marc got it done. I cannot say enough good things about everyone involved: Sharon Johnson for the listing and open house, Shannon Redmond for the closing and, of course, Marc. Earlier contact with Alyssa Chalifo who helped us make the decision to sell. I highly recommend Exit for anyone anticipating the sale of a house.

Lance Tracey

Marc and his team were outstanding. I have been through the real estate process a number of times and this has been by far the best experience. The knowledge, attitude and responsiveness of the team exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend Exit reality to anyone buying or selling a home.

Caprisa Scruggs

Marc was highly recommended by a close friend. He was very responsive and provided the knowledge that I needed to make decisions that was best for me as it had been many years since buying/selling a home. The transition to selling and closing was seamless. I would highly recommend him!

Elsa Nuñez

After 16 years living in our home selling it could have been an overwhelming experience; however Marc and his team at Exit Realty helped us with the journey from getting our home ready for sale to the last step in closing the deal. I personally liked the use of My Home App for scheduling potential buyers and the team's exceptional communication during the entire process. Overall an excellent experience with a multi talented team of professionals!

Stephanie Mize

Marc and his team are amazing! Our family has used Exit First Realty for multiple homes, including buying and selling properties. A top notch experience!

Darryl Jones

I recently sold my property and Exit First Realty was there every step of the way. All the staff there was helpful and kept me informed every step of the way. They made the sell easy for me as they put in all the work to complete this sell. My realtor was Trent Dankos and he was amazing very professional and trustworthy. He worked really hard to get the sale complete and was available to talk to every step of the way. If anyone is in the market to sell or buy property you should make Exit First Realty your first choice to help you. Amazing company thank you Exit First!!

Amy Estes

Using Exit First Realty for a home sale transaction was a great choice. The team was professional and was always quick to answer questions from me as a first-time home seller. I felt like there was a team member to take care of anything and everything so that I didn't have to lift a finger. Home selling is very stressful but Marc and his team made it EASY.

Adel Fabiato

Marc and his team are amazing! We have worked with them numerous times over the past 15 years buying and selling our homes and rental properties. They are a pleasure to work with and make the whole process so easy. Any text or phone call is immediately answered and they are extremely helpful with any questions or issues that may come up. We are so grateful for them.

Joseph/Elaine Cacciatore

Our experience with Exit First Realty, Marc Austin Highfill broker/owner, has been first rate. This was the second occasion we have used Exit First Realty to market our property. Marc and his sales team were very aggressive in getting multiple offers for our property. Marc and his team provided guidance and were very responsive when questions arose. We would not hesitate to use Exit First Realty again in the future. We recommend Exit First Realty to anyone considering buying or selling a home

Sally Matchett

Marc and his team were remarkable. They all were very pleasant to work with. It was so nice to have full confidence in them to get the job done!

Mike C

Marc and Bryan have helped me with 7 homes in the past 20+ years. They have always done an excellent job in looking out for my best interest and maximizing my home sales values. The Exit Team have also helped us with new construction builds, supporting us from concept to our new dream home. I recommend them to everyone who is looking to move as they have a great support team and do an excellent job.

Richard Cross

Marc and his team worked very hard to guide me to the right way to market the house. With their guidance and close communication we were successful to getting the highest price in the current market conditions.

Thomas Reitz, Jr.

Our experience with Marc Austin Highfill, Exit First Realty was great! Marc's team worked with us in all aspects of the sale of our home. They provided advice preparing the house for the sale, educated us on the recent sales in the area and assisted on pricing. They understood the market in the area of our home an extremely detail. They advised us on the offers and kept our nerves calm throughout the process. His team was very responsive to questions. They communicated by telephone, email and texting. Overall, if I had to use one word. That word is "positive." Yes, I would use them again if I was selling a home

I can’t say enough about the seamless way Mr. Marc and his team supported my family in selling a home. I was a bit intimidated about the market conditions and did not want to prolong the process. My family had been facing some tough times and the experience with EXIT truly left an impact. His team genuinely cares and listens to the client. The confidence put forth by Marc eased any difficulties we were facing. I very much appreciate him listening to our feedback about the listing price and working towards a strong figure which we all agreed to. The home received multiple offers right away and he guided us through in selecting the best one. Sharon, Shannon, and Stacy very responsive. I don’t think any other realtor would help us get to the finish line at such a swift pace.

Same Kube

We had a fantastic experience with Marc and everyone on his team from listing through close. We received multiple offers over asking and appreciated everyone on the team being available anytime we had a question.

shaquanta d robertson

Loved, the whole team from start to finish. They made the process easy to understand. The best part about this team, you have multiple people you can submit your questions to. The ease of not having to wait on one person to respond keeps a first time seller at ease.

Great service!

April Station

Marc and his team are amazing!!! We relocated from Seattle, WA to Richmond, VA during the height of the pandemic and surge in the housing market. To say there was limited inventory, would be an understatement. Marc did a great job with listening to our needs. He was able to leverage his 23 years of experience and expansive network to come up with creative (and out of the box thinking) to land us an off-market home without a significant premium. I appreciate his professionalism and devotion towards customer satisfaction. I couldn't be more thrilled with the service, my perfect new home, and would definitely recommend Marc Austin Highfill if you are in the market for a realtor!!!
