I have had the privilege to work with Louise on multiple occasions over many years. Each time she was able to assess what was need to sell my home fast and at the best price possible. In addition to being knowledgeable and professional, she is a joy to work with. Whenever problems arose, she worked with me to find simple and creative solutions. She has a can do attitude that makes all things seem possible. I look forward

Due to Louise's outstanding professional skills, with the support of Kristin, we sold our house in double quick time for over asking price. Local knowledge, approachability, a calm approach all combined to make this a remarkably smooth experience. Her choice of Euro Staging was inspired. Follow her advice to the letter, trust her judgement and experience, work with her and trust her do her job and the rewards will be rich. A wonderful, warm,

This is my second time working with Louise for buying/selling our home. She is an expert in the field and is extremely kind and helpful. She answered all of our questions and helped us pick out paint colors and furniture so that when we sold our home it looked beautiful and sold well above asking price. She helped us navigate the 6 offers that came in and negotiated with the buyer on contingencies landing us a fantastic deal. I highly recommend Louise to all my family and friends looking for an agent. She will exceed your expectations.

This was our second time with Louise Molton. We engaged her to buy the house and again to sell it. Both times she was lovely, thorough, engaging, dogged, knowledgeable, and professional. She went above and beyond the call of duty on so many occasions that by now, my wife and I see Louise as a friend. She really is the realtor's realtor, and I can think of no one I would rather go through the process with. If we ever find ourselves in the Northern Virginia housing market again, we will make a beeline to Louise. Save yourself the realtor shopping trip. Call Louise

I was very fortunate to work with Louise in finding and securing the perfect property for me. She did an incredible job in all respects, and made the process very smooth, efficient and stress free. In addition to being incredibly knowledgeable in all aspects of the process and the market, she is such a pleasure to work with. She is extremely responsive, and never let me down or left me waiting. If I am in the market again, either buying or selling, I would without a doubt work only with Louise.

Primary point of contact: Kristin Sharifi. We worked with Louise and Kristin Sharifi during our recent purchase and their thorough understanding of our local market was critical in achieving our goal. They were very responsive throughout the process, offered great advice and accommodated us at every turn. They also went above and beyond to share their personal experiences and expertise as we began our first sojourn into the leasing arena. They are both very personable and easy to work with, which made the entire process very enjoyable. We highly recommend working with this team.

I was very fortunate to have Louis as my agent. From the time I met her till now after closing, her relationship has been personalized, caring and comfortable. She has many years of experience in her profession and knows the area and the market very well. She is diligent, very hard working, conscientious, responsive and loves what she does. She communicated with me daily or several times a week, depending on the issue and the process. She was always available to answer my questions even if she was out of town. After every open house, she would send me feedback the same evening and would always be positive. She is highly respected among her peers. She had 2 brokerage open houses to get their feedback. Many of them attended. They were complimentary and gave feedback. My house was slow to sell. Louise worked very hard, did extensive marketing. She is patient and a skilled negotiator. I had a contract. The buyer went back and forth for almost a month. I told Louis "no more". She said one more try. She came up with a price and presented to the seller's agent, the buyers agreed. It was sold. Louise and Kristin work together. They both are knowledgeable, skilled and are an excellent team. Louise has an excellent Stager, who did an amazing job. Every person who walked through the house was complimentary. She has many other contacts which sellers need, that is a big help. I feel very fortunate that I had Louise as my agent. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is buying or selling house or any real estate property

06/16/2019 - Susie Larcamp Sold a home in 2019 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise sold our house in 2 days for over asking price. She made the whole process go smoothly. Louise is a true professional and was very responsive to our questions and needs. We had already moved out of the house and out of state. Louise and her staff made sure that everything was perfect for the Open House. She even helped us get rid of items that were left in the house. We closed long distance without any problems. We feel very fortunate that we had Louise as our agent. We would highly recommend Louise to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in the Northern Virginia area.
06/16/2019 - user60703377 Bought a home in 2019 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise and Kristen are wonderful to work with. We were first-time buyers and we are so glad we went with a seasoned team with deep knowledge of the market. They are extremely responsive, proactive and very well organized -- plus they are nice people! We trusted them completely to help us navigate through the buying process. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home. Thank you Louise and Kristin!
06/15/2019 - christian loucq. Found a tenant for a home in Falls Church, VA.
We decided to rent our house in Falls Church and contacted Louise Molton and Kristin Sharifi to help us. We were very impressed by their professionalism, courtesy and knowledge. They made the process very smooth; they were very responsive and made sure that we could reach quickly our objective. Louise made sure that we understood the market and adjust our requirement accordingly. Louise personalize her relationships with clients and made us feel very comfortable and assured that we were making the right decision. We got positive feedbacks from several parties who interacted with her. She knows the area very well and is known and appreciated. We were fortunate to find her and work with her.
06/02/2019 – prasullivan Sold a home in 2019 in Falls Church, VA.
I was ready to sell my home of 52 years, knowing lots of downsizing was needed, as well as some sprucing up. Louise was very helpful in clarifying what was necessary and what wasn't. She was clear on when to put the house on the market for maximum benefit, and how best to market it. She was always available to answer questions and offer positive suggestions. Louise handled buyers' desires vs. seller's interests with diplomacy and skill. I found her completely honest, responsible, and excellent at her profession. I would readily recommend Louise to anyone needing to buy or sell a home.
05/31/2019 - Alina Russo Sold a home in 2019 in Alexandria, VA.
I have known Louise for many years and my family has trusted her with selling and purchasing several homes. My husband and I recently sold our first home with Louise and her associate Kristen and we are so thankful for their diligence, expertise and guidance throughout the process. We are living in Denver Colorado and while we were concerned about the logistics and comfort of selling our Old Town condo from out of state Louise and Kristen made sure the process was as smooth as possible. There were several bumps and stresses along the way from the buyer's side, but Louise and Kristen worked hard and professionally to handle each issue. We would highly recommend them to anyone buying or selling in the area- they have a wealth of local knowledge and experience, and it is clear that they genuinely love what they do.
05/01/2019 – georgepieler Sold a home in 2019 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise paid special attention to the particular needs of the seller (me) and the Need for Speed in this case, while marketing sensibly to diverse array of potential buyers without presuming which KIND of buyer would be most likely to bite. Speedy responses at all times, fast to the market, closed in a month at full ask.
01/03/2019 – markoperdido. Sold a home in 2018 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise Molton sold my house in 46 days. I believe that’s the absolute minimum amount of time required to sell a house in Fairfax County. From listing to closing—from me driving away in a moving van to knowing that the check was in the mail—Louise did it all. Amazing. When I write that she did it all, I mean she did everything because I was in a different state and could do nothing substantive to advance the surprisingly convoluted sale process. Louise arranged for cleaners to make my home presentable. She dealt with plumbers and painters, letting them into the house and locking up afterwards, confirming work was complete and inspecting the results. She arranged for three separate inspections: the initial home inspection, the lending bank’s valuation, and a final inspection to confirm certain problems had been fixed. She resolved issues where inspectors fell short in their examinations. And the whole time she kept me informed of what was happening with my house and how the sale process was moving forward. There is no question that if I had to do it again, I would engage her services.

In the past I had dealt with many real estate agents. Louise and her associate, Kristin are one of the BEST. It was a great pleasure working with them. Good communications and very professional. I must say I was happy with the smooth process of selling my house! Louise and Kristin were Great! Highly recommend them! Less
10/19/2018 - tscardino314 Sold a home in 2018 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise and her team (especially Kristin) were simply amazing! I have been involved with many real estate transactions and can say that, without a doubt, they were by far the best team I have ever worked with. Simply put, without their creativity, willingness to go the extra mile, responsiveness, hard work, and real estate knowledge, my home would not have sold for the amount that I needed for my next purchase. They literally made this happen and I would recommend their services to ANYONE looking to sell a home in the NoVA area.
09/25/2018 - va703 Sold a home in 2018 in Oakton, VA
We loved working with Louise and her associate, Kristin, when we bought our first home. When it came time to sell our home to relocate, we contacted Louise and Kristin again, based on our positive experience. Despite putting the house on the market in the summer, they were able to sell the house in just a few days! Louise and Kristin ensured that we understood our options and walked us through the process. They offered advice without being pushy, and they were very respectful of our decisions. They have excellent communication skills and promptly respond to emails, text messages, and phone calls. We definitely recommend them to others!
07/27/2018 – hcdarst Sold a home in 2018 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise helped me sell my home in Falls Church, VA. I had to move on relatively short notice and Louise guided me through the selling process and took care of everything so I could focus on packing and moving without any added stress or distractions. Her knowledge and expertise gave me confidence that I has chosen the right agent, and I can honestly say every bit of advice she gave me ended up to be correct and beneficial. I was very happy with the entire process and the results and I would enthusiastically recommend Louise Molton to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Falls Church.
06/20/2018 - Anna Oosterbaan Sold a home in 2018 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise is an incredible real estate professional. She is extremely knowledgeable and practical, and gets things done efficiently and effectively. She always exceeded my expectations, and I will continue to recommend her to my closest family and friends. In addition to her professionalism and work skills, she is very kind and compassionate. Louise is articulate and diplomatic, and is able to accomplish a first class result for all parties involved. Thank you Louise! You did a wonderful job selling our home.
06/14/2018 – skokaku Sold a home in 2018 in Dunn Loring, VA.
We listed our house with Louise and it sold in 10 days! She was there in the preparation phase, she created the listing, and she negotiated a quick sale. End-to-end service. Highly recommended.

Worked hard holding weekly open houses for many months....good friendly person....was very knowledgeable about my area and the pricing. I would use her again.
03/30/2018 - Patti Cary Listed, but didn't sell my home in 2017 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise was a terrific agent. We interviewed several real estate agents and decided to list our home with Louise. I was the right decision. She understands the Falls Church real estate market and was very easy to work with. She and her team were responsive when we had a last minute showings and we were out of town. Louise would make sure the house was in showing condition before the potential buyer came through. She provided us good advice when we were presented with various offers. My husband and I highly recommend Louise.
12/9/2017 - htkriz Sold a Townhouse Home in 2017 in Falls Church, Va.
Louise Molton was my representative in the sale of two somewhat difficult properties. We hit a couple of points along the way that could have gone against us and Louise Molton really pulled us through with sound judgment and creative thinking. Her experience and savvy came shining through!
11/21/2017 - zuser20150515170434444 Bought a Single Family Home in 2017 in Falls Church, Va.
We work for the State Department and we were buying our first home from overseas. Not an easy feat, especially with a 12 hour time difference! I cannot recommend Louise highly enough, especially if you are in similar circumstances. Because Louise is intimately familiar with the real estate market in the area we were interested in, she kept me in the loop of homes for sale which she thought I might be interested in as well as homes likely coming up on the market for two years until we found our home. From Whatsapp messages, to facetime video walkthroughs, to docusign documents and middle of the night phone calls I am extremely grateful to her for all of the guidance, time, and patience involved in buying our home. Louise made what is usually a very stressful life event into what seemed like a project among friends. Her warmth, compassion and sense of humor are irreplaceable, we could not have had a better experience. We love our home, thank you Louise!
11/18/2017 - sheiladugg Bought a Single Family Home in 2017 in Falls Church, Va.
When my husband and I decided to put an offer in on a house that had just been listed, Louise had our offer on the selling agent’s desk and accepted by the seller’s just hours later. Throughout the process, she had creative negotiating suggestions that we realized could only be made by a realtor with substantial knowledge and experience. Louise was always available to talk when we had questions or concerns and her positive and calm energy allowed for a seamless buying experience.
11/10/2017 - sqbuck Bought a Single Family Home in 2017 in Falls Church, Va.
Louise made the sale of our old house and the purchase of our new house go so smoothly. She took time to discuss details with us and never seemed to be in a hurry. She showed us many properties over a period of months. She was able to find out through social media the home we eventually bought. She helped us analyze comparables and advised us how to negotiate. She was always very happy to hear from us and we now count her as a good friend. I highly recommend her.
11/9/2017 - aliceincville Sold a Single Family Home in 2017 in Fairfax, Va.
Louise Molton provided expert advice on my selling strategy and what work needed to be done in my house (and also what didn't) to get it ready for showing. She recommended really good, responsive contractors which saved me tons of time and stress. She didn't push for an immediate listing, but gave me time to get all the work done. Once that happened, the house went on the market on a Thursday, open house on Sunday, and was under contract by the next Tuesday, with multiple offers at and over the listing price! Your results may vary but I went from listing to closing in three weeks. Beyond all that, I found Louise to be a charming and personable woman, easy to work with, and who wanted the best result for me.
11/9/2017 - thuydavis Bought & Sold a Single Family Home in 2017 in Falls Church, Va.
Louise recently helped us sell our house and purchase a condo. We went through the whole process with little stress and worry thanks to Louise and her team. They provided a seamless process from getting the house ready for sale, closing dates, and moving to our new place. From the first meeting, we feel very impressed and comfortable with her. Louise is knowledgeable, professional, efficient and personal. She is always very prompt in responding to any of our questions regardless of what day of the week or what time of the day.
9/11/2017 - robert f gaskins Sold a Townhouse Home in 2016 in McLean, Va.
Louise helped me sell a rental property owned by me and my ex-wife. Needless to say, it was a "high" conflict situation which Louise handled with grace, patience, and expertise. She never wavered in her professionalism and continually calmed the situation with her understanding to all parties involved in the transaction. In addition, she obtained top dollar for my home and was able to make sure I closed on-time. Would I use Louise again...absolutely. However, hopefully next time under a less stressful situation.
11/9/2017 - zuser20171108165454227 Sold a Single Family Home in 2017 in Falls Church, Va.
We had a few balls up in the air and didn't have as much time as we might have wanted to deal with the details of selling the house and moving - for example, getting rid of our excess furniture & boxes. Louise repeatedly saved us by organizing support, being calm-cool-and-collected, and making critical decisions. All while on the way to an easy, above asking price sale. Can't ask for more.
2/2/2017 - Geoffrey Greene Sold a Townhouse in 2017 for approximately $625k in Falls Church, Va.
Louise, her associate Kristin Sharifi, & her entire team did a terrific job! They found us a builder looking for a remodeling project (for a family member) before our house was even listed! This saved us the expense & headaches of repairs & staging our property. Throughout the entire process, she & her colleagues answered every call, text & email almost instantly, providing clear & actionable answers to our question. Highly recommended, especially for folks looking to buy or sell in Falls Church City, a unique micro-market in the metro area because of its great schools.
12/7/2016 - Grace Lee Sold a Condo home in 2016 in Dupont Circle, Washington, DC
I worked with Louise's colleague Kristin Sharifi. We had to move across the country and the thought of dealing with selling our property was overwhelming. Kristin was the voice of calm and reason throughout the whole process. She went above and beyond to ensure that we were informed of the process, was direct and clear about what we needed to do with our property to have it ready to show/sell, and provided much needed advice when it came down to figuring out how to handle offers. Kristin was truly in my corner the entire time and made the whole experience as smooth as possible. We would work with her again and recommend her without hesitation.

Louise helped us buy a house for our residence from overseas. We never saw the property in person until after we made the offer and moved to the US. Louise looked at the properties I flagged and gave me detailed descriptions of the homes. She noted pros and cons for each property. Based on her feedback I had complete confidence in her assessments and felt comfortable making an offer. Louise also help us sell our condo and the process for both transactions were smooth and seamless. Her staff are exceptional and attended to all the details. We highly recommend Louise and her team.
12/6/2016 - ichiyo iwata Bought a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $700K in Falls Church, VA.
We are very pleased with the service Louise provided for purchasing a home in Falls Church City. I love the fact that she is super responsive and acts very quickly, which you will need your agent to be in a competitive market. She is very knowledgeable, if uncertain, she will get the answer for you right away. She is very personable and not pushy in influencing our decisions, which I really liked. This is our second home purchase, we do not even keep in contact with the realtor we had for our first home, but I will make sure to ask her to be our agent again in the future. She is a keeper, you will know the difference when you work with her.
12/4/2016 - annecwan Bought a Condo home in 2016 for approximately $625K in Falls Church, VA.
We have worked with Louise on several occasions and we highly recommend her. She is extremely professional, an expert on the real estate market in Northern Virginia and just a pleasure to work with. We are not from this area and relied on Louise's deep knowledge of the local market to help our family find the perfect fit and then navigated us through the process of closing, including expertly negotiating on our behalf throughout. We could not have been happier with the house we are in and credit Louise for guiding us through the whole process. We trust her and will definitely work with her again.

Louise Molton and Kristin Sharifi are quite simply everything you want in a realtor. Professional and caring, responsive and knowledgeable. We found our dream home in Falls Church in literally one week, and our negotiations with the owners were pleasant, immediately productive, and ultimately quite successful. I would recommend them unconditionally!
12/4/2016 - user6726206 Sold a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $550K in Falls Church, VA.
Louise gave us valuable advice in preparing the home before the sale. She did extensive research in pricing the home and listened and respected our concerns about presale expenditures. She and her assistant addressed our questions without delay. The process could not have gone smoother or faster. Her advice and pricing were right on the money. We sold on the first weekend on the market and sailed through settlement. Highly recommended for the Falls Church area.

Louise and her team helped us with all aspects of selling our house, from deciding what color to paint the walls before we listed it to negotiating the sale price. She knows the neighborhood well and helped us get a good price for the house.

Louise ROCKS! She helped us out of a pretty major jam . we had to change agents the day after we listed and Louise took us on and didn't miss a beat or our scheduled open house the next day. . which was pretty amazing. Sold the house quickly with effective negotiation. We recommend Louise as highly as we can. She was a pleasure both personally and professionally.
11/2/2016 - David Jafarzadeh Sold a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $1.2M in Falls Church, VA.
What a great experience! We had to move out of state before the final signing -- Louise and her team did a masterful job ensuring all tasks were complete and kept in touch during the entire process. When the new owners moved, they found a few items we had left behind. Louise boxed all the items up and mailed then to us. We can't say enough wonderful things about our experience w/Louise and her team.
11/1/2016 - simmsjt0 Sold a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $650K in Falls Church, VA.
Simply put, Louise and her team are incredible. They put the “P” in professional, the “F” in friendly, the “R” in responsiveness and the “E” in both experts and effort. Recently, Louise and her team helped us to sell our home in Falls Church and relocate. Once we made the decision to sell, we moved quickly and they matched our aggressive pace. Their expert marketing drew a great deal of attention to our home and we had a contract in under 3 weeks during a time when houses could sit idle for months. The team transitioned immediately and helped us to relocate in record time. Not an easy feat. If you are going to either buy or sell a home in the Washington Metropolitan area and you want the support of a highly effective yet very pleasant and down to earth person, call Louise and her team.
11/1/2016 - bonnie nicklien Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $275K in Bentonville, VA.
We are so grateful to Louise and her team for helping my husband and I navigate through a short sale purchase of our home. Louise really listened to our needs and helped translate that into finding us a home. She truly has a great heart for people and really invests her time and energy into your individual process - which to me is a rare find in an agent. Unfortunately, within a few months a new job opportunity had us leaving the state but we knew immediately we wanted Louise to work with us on selling the house. After living in the house for only 9 months we received two different offers within the first two weeks of listing and we were under contract. Again, Louise and Re/Max Realty West End were always ready and willing to answer any questions. We couldn't have asked for better representation throughout the selling process!! If only we could bring her to FL to help us through our next purchase.
05/12/2016 - CA Kenny Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $1.15M in Falls Church, VA.
Louise is a delight to work with, and a hard working, knowledgeable professional who got us the results we needed. We used her for both selling our home and buying a new home; neither process was easy. Yet Louise got us through an arduous but ultimately successful sale of our family home, and then several stressful multiple bid experiences, in buying a new home, Louise kept our spirits up, worked her many professional connections to get us into homes right away, and exhausted all options to get us into a new home. She is smart, quick to respond to questions, and savvy about real estate negotiations. Thanks to the efforts of Louise and her partner, Bruce, we look forward to closing on a new home in a few weeks.
05/11/2016 - shawneenpetersen Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2015 for approximately $625K in Arlington-East Falls, Arlington, VA.
Ms. Molton is a top notch agent. She handled the sale of my home of 39 years last year and then found the perfect place for me to buy a month ago. She has tremendous knowledge of the area. She listens carefully to her clients to determine their needs and to build rapport. She is attentive to details in terms of the selling and buying process and beyond. She responds quickly to questions, concerns. I couldn't ask for a better agent. I refer Ms. Molton as my choice realtor whenever possible.
05/11/2016 - alexblackstone Helped me rent a Townhouse home in Falls Church, VA.
Louise was very helpful and responsive to my inquiries of finding a rental property within my budget. Having resided in the Falls Church area for many years, she is extremely knowledgeable about the area and provided information on relevant services for a newcomer like myself. Her warm personality made every interaction a good experience and I felt that she genuinely wants to provide the best service she can. I would definitely recommend her services.
05/11/2016 - ljtarr3 Sold a Single Family home in 2015 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise smoothed every bump in the road, and there were quite a few. I have doubts that our home would have been sold within our time frame without her outstanding attentiveness. She was always responsive and competent. Working with Louise was a pleasure.
09/17/2015 - allenk608 Sold a Single Family home in 2015 for approximately $850K in Falls Church, VA.
Louise Molton was our FIRST choice among many possible realtors to sell our home and she and her team proved to be the BEST ever. Because of her expertise, knowledge of the market, and keen advice, she helped us obtain a full-price contract on our home the FIRST day it was listed! To achieve this exceptional outcome, she knew exactly how to price our home, when to list it, and how to market it. Louise and her team were extremely responsive to every question we had throughout the preparation, sale, and settlement process, and even beyond, after we had moved away, no matter the time of day or night. A bonus to her expertise and extreme professionalism is her personal touch. She cares about those she's working with, and their families and *homes* [not just *houses*] which is the icing on the cake. We would recommend Louise Molton and her team first and foremost to anyone considering selling or buying a home in Falls Church, VA.
08/31/2015 - jabber888. Bought a Townhouse home in 2014 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise is an exceptional agent who has helped us through two transactions in Falls Church City, once in June 2014 and most recently in August 2015. Before buying our properties, Louise was in regular communication with us, advising us of properties she thought we would be interested in based on our parameters. We are not from the area so Louise guided us through the nuances of buying property in Virginia and we relied on her expert knowledge of the local market. Louise always took the time to understand us; she knew what we were looking for, our preferences, requirements, and limitations. Although we were overseas and at times were unable to even see the property before purchasing, Louise made the process seamless and took care of every detail, every time representing us well. Louise is trustworthy, professional, and knows the local market like no other agent. We highly recommend her!

Primary point of contact: Kristin Sharifi .We worked primarily with Kristin Sharifi, however, she and Louise are truly a team. If Kristin wasn’t immediately available (very rarely), Louise was there to answer or call us back right away. Kristin and Louise were both prompt with all meetings, emails, and phone calls. We were first time home buyers so we naturally had a lot of questions, and they were both very knowledgeable and thorough in their responses. When it came time to make an offer on the house we now own , Kristin came up with a great plan to make our offer more attractive, despite there being multiple bids and higher offers. We loved working with Kristin and Louise!
06/02/2015 - awags11 Bought a Townhouse home in 2015 for approximately $375K in Reston, VA. Primary point of contact: Kristin Sharifi
I have worked with Kristin Sharifi from Louise's office twice now to buy a new home, and both times have been a pleasure. She has helped me with every step of the process, giving useful advice along the way, and has never pressured me into a buying situation I was uncomfortable with. You always want an honest opinion from a real estate professional and Kristin is always willing to give one. She has always been focused on what I wanted in a house and not just trying to push a sale. Along the way, she is always very responsive with calls/emails, which is very important in a potentially stressful home buying situation. It has always been a low stress experience working with Kristin and her team. She even has provided me several references and information outside the realm of a normal realtor/client relationship based on all her experience in the field for moving and getting settled in a new home. I also have experience working with Louise, who was just as helpful and responsive as Kristin was. Will definitely be working with Kristin for as long as possible for every real estate need.

We first used Louise 8 years ago when she helped us buy the house that we have now just sold. We left the sale of our house in the very capable hands of Louise Molton. We moved across country from the East Coast to the West and left Louise to stage the house, put it on the market, organize open houses all at the time of year when there was snow on the ground and subzero temperatures, AND she sold it in 3 weeks!!! One of her team checked in on the house every couple of days to make sure there were no burst pipes and they did plenty of shoveling of snow for open houses. She made the whole process totally stress free for me. She is an excellent negotiator and tries her best to make everything go smoothly for both parties involved in the selling and buying. I would recommend Louise and her whole team if you want to sell your house quickly and efficiently. I would use her again in a heartbeat. For me she goes above and beyond to make things easy for her clients. Louise and her whole team ROCK.

Working with Louise and Kristin was awesome! We had been thinking about making a move when a great home popped up on the market in the perfect neighborhood for us. When our offer on the new house was accepted, we had to move very quickly to list our townhouse. With a toddler at home and new baby on the way – this was a daunting task! Louise and her team were incredibly helpful with getting our townhouse “open house ready” from arranging the details for having our place painted and cleaned to marketing and staging. Kristin was instrumental in helping us navigate some tricky financing issues to ensure we could close on time at our new place. It has been the best move for our family. We love our new place and would definitely recommend working with Louise and her team!

Louise, it was a pleasure working with you. We selected you based on your track record and you exceeded our high expectations. I appreciate your professionalism, expertise, and joyful spirit. I will recommend you to all my friends.

A friend of mine recommended Louise Molton and even though she specialized in McLean and Falls Church and not Fairfax, I am so glad I took her advice. I was also concerned because Louise usually sells more high-end houses than ours. But Louise quickly set my mind at ease. It was clear that Louise about every client no matter how expensive their house is and It turned out Louise knew all about Fairfax and our neighborhood particularly. She knew how to market our house to its best advantage. She recommended fabulous paint colors and recommended a wonderful landscaper and painter who were so helpful and made good recommendations themselves. They, like Louise, really seemed to care about us and were invested in our selling our home. Louise advised against an expensive kitchen upgrade and bathroom upgrade because she said we wouldn't get our money back and she told us things that we should do that would make a difference. She told us what to put into storage and where to place the furniture. She calmed us down when we got nervous and she made us laugh when we got discouraged at how much we needed to do. Louise markets with class. The signs were beautiful. At our first open house, we had so many people come and we sold our house that night for our asking price to a very qualified buyer. We were so thrilled! I am recommending Louise to everyone. Louise is a good and kind person with integrity. Anyone would be lucky to have Louise represent them.

Working with Molton Team was great experience. Wonderful ideas, photos and assistance in setup. Louise even provided the names of contractors, from to landscapers to painters to assist in preparing our house. Our house sold on the showing date, one day and the house was SOLD. Can't ask for more than that! Thanks to all who helped with the sale!

Louise listed and sold our single family home in the City of Falls Church, VA. Louise was very active in getting our home in shape for selling. She made arrangements for painters, repairmen, staging, and landscapers and worked closely with them to make sure things were completed and completed properly. Louise, along with her associate Bruce Turner, spent a great deal of time at our house packing up and moving furniture. Louise worked very closely with us on the offers we received and helped to get the closing completed quickly.

Louise (and Bruce and Kristin), We really appreciated the support you provided during this difficult process. We wish all of you continued success.

Louise is a great real estate agent, always professional, very knowledgeable, and a fantastic negotiator. She helped me get top dollar for my home. I've recommended her to several people.
08/28/2014 - Sold a Townhouse home in 2013
I have both bought and sold with Louise and she was fantastic on both sides. She earns my highest praise for the work she did to sell my home when I was an absentee seller. Back in 2013, I needed to sell my home in Vienna, VA but was only able to spend a few days in the area before moving to a new assignment. Louise was instrumental in transitioning my home from a rental property to listing condition and was so successful that the winning offer came in the first weekend the house was on the market! Louise accomplished all of this by providing referrals for and coordinating all the players: cleaning services, a handyman, and landscapers to ensure that the property showed well following three years of being renter-occupied. Louise worked with my relocation company, which was no easy task, and the buyers to ensure all inspections were conducted and issues addressed prior to closing. I was certainly not Louise's easiest client but she made the entire process feel effortless and was always supportive and positive throughout it all.

Louise is amazing. She is great at figuring out what people need--whether buying or selling--and is masterful at finding them something even better than they had imagined! She sold a home for a dear friend a decade ago and I was so impressed by her skill, professionalism, calm manner, and high level of customer service that I have since recommended her to a host of other friends. Each one of them has been completely delighted with her services--quite a feat! She really is superlative. I recommend her most highly and without reservation.
08/18/2014 - Sold a Single-Family home in 2008 for approximately $800K in Falls Church, VA.
We would recommend Louise in a heartbeat. Six years ago, mid-February 2008, we decided on a whim to move into a condo not too far from our house. Louise was our realtor selling our house and could not have given us better advice. She has a sixth sense for what is going on in the market. This was just at the beginning of the economic downturn. Louise advised what needed to be repaired, refreshed, and staged in our home and to get it done ASAP. Two weeks later it sold in the middle of the first week it was on the market, a couple of days before the Sunday open house. It was the last single family home in Falls Church City to sell at asking price for quite some time. Her sense of urgency was right on the money. It took months for several close neighbors to sell, having put them on the market a few weeks later, in the usual spring selling season. The home inspection went without a hitch, no surprises. Louise is a delight to work with!

Louise, Bruce and Kristin have represented me and my company ACACIA HOMES LLC for multiple transactions over the past two years, in the buying of properties and selling my new built homes. A good Real Estate Agent is an essential component of my business. In Northern Virginia the real estate market can be very dynamic and competitive. Even though there are plenty of Agents around here, all touting this-and-that, few actually deliver on their promises. Louise and her team are one of the few...
08/17/2014 - Bought a Single-Family home in 2011 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise was wonderful. We met her at an open house and after listening to our needs directed us towards a property that fit the bill. As anyone, we had concerns both financially, the neighborhood and our house and she supported us during this very successful time. And, three years later, it has worked out very well.
One small note that I very much appreciated is that Louise did not use "fluffy" real estate language. Not every light fixture is unique / charming / gives evidence of the good "bones" of the house (we heard all three). She is very straight.
Good luck to your house hunting!
08/17/2014 - Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $1.0M in Vienna, VA.
We found Louise Molton to be the most responsive and knowledgeable realtor we have ever dealt with on a home purchase. We have moved an average of every two years for the last twenty years and have dealt with realty specialists all over the country. None has been more aware of our needs and desires, or more personable than Louise. I would definitely recommend her and her agency to anyone relocating to the Northern Virginia/Washington DC area!

Louise was a Godsend during a very difficult time for me. My sister had passed away after a long illness and I was the executor of her estate with no knowledge of how to manage her assets since she had not made provisions for any of them. I contacted Louise who stepped in immediately and not only listed the property, but helped to get it cleaned, organized, arranged to have the excess furniture moved to a storage site, paid for the storage site and handled all communicated between her staff for me so that I could concentrate on other aspects of the estate. We got a very fair price with her expert advice and the closing went smoothly. She is not only an excellent realtor, she is a very kind and compassionate individual. I would use her again and recommend her without hesitation.
08/17/2014 - Bought a home in 2014.
We thoroughly enjoyed working with Louise when we bought our home. She is very knowledgeable about the market, neighborhood, and surrounding area. Louise was very good at understanding our needs and preferences and found us exactly what we wanted. Her experience and creativity helped us during our complex buying scenario. She was calming and reassuring throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend Louise!

Ms. Molton sold a townhouse and a condo that my wife and I owned in Fair Lakes and Herndon, Virginia. Both sales were completed within a few days after being posted. The prices, in both cases, exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended. The sales took place in 2007 and June 2008.

Ms, Molton is extremely professional and knowledgeable about real estate in Northern Virginia, especially in Falls Church. She focuses on your needs and helps you through the entire process. Louise makes sure you are extremely happy with your sale or purchase and goes the extra mile to ensure a fair and satisfactory closing. She and her team work quickly to sell your house at the best price or make your new house a home. I have used them for both selling and buying houses and highly recommend them.
08/17/2014 - Showed home in 2013 in Falls Church, VA.
In 2013 Louise showed us homes in our area as an alternative to renovating our current home. Her knowledge of the houses in Falls Church and McLean is incredible, and her ability to offer insight invaluable. She pointed out house details that we would never have noticed, helped us value our own house and gave us solid opinions to help us make decisions. In the end we decided to renovate, but if we ever buy or sell a home, she will definitely be our agent.
08/17/2014 - Sold a Single Family home in 2011 for approximately $675K in Westover Village, Arlington, VA.
Louise has incredible market insight, is extremely effective, and is one of the most congenial people I know. I was unable to sell my house for over 6 months. I switched realtors to Louise. She made 3 simple suggestions that cost me about $190 (that she fronted), the house sold before opening day. In fact, there was a special request from the buyers to ensure a lamp Louise asked me to buy conveyed with the property! Louise and the magic lamp! As a military officer I had moved about 18 times in my career. I never had a better Real Estate agent.
08/17/2014 - Sold a Single-Family home in 2012 for approximately $850K in Falls Church, VA.
Working with Louise was a pleasure-- she really knows her stuff. She had all sorts of tradespeople to recommend to help get my home in ship-shop shape and she got me top dollar for my house in a reasonable amount of time. She has a wonderful team and someone was in contact with me throughout the whole process. Louise really sets herself apart by doing things like packing up things for storage and taking the dog for a walk while the house is being shown. Plus she is a very nice and caring person.
08/16/2014 - Sold a Single-Family home in 2014 for approximately $725K in Falls Church, VA.
Louise is knowledgeable and patient -- a great combination when entering such a big financial transaction on an issue you are not an expert on. Her contacts and ideas for repairs, staging and marketing are very helpful.
06/15/2014 - Bought a Single Family home in 2009 for approximately $1.3M in Olde Glebe, Arlington, VA.
Louise was an excellent agent who handled not only our purchase but our brother-in-law and sister-in-law previously. She has a deep understanding of the Falls Church and Arlington, VA real estate markets and I'm sure her knowledge extends beyond that. Louise was a very patient agent working with a pregnant buyer and an initial offer that fell through before we found our current residence. I would highly recommend Louise to any future buyers/sellers in Northern Virginia.
06/12/2014 - Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $525K in Falls Church, VA.
Louise showed me a wide range of properties when I was looking two years ago and was very considerate of my time constraints. She knows the area very well and was persuasive but showed respect of different viewpoints in sharing her professional opinions.
06/09/2014 - Sold a Single Family home in 2014 in Falls Church, VA.
Because of Louise’s experience and care, the sale of my house turned out to be a stress-free transaction. She had a lot of creative suggestions to make the house look more open and inviting and made all her suggestions in a positive and constructive manner. The photographs for the listing were outstanding and made my small house look bright and spacious. Her sharp negotiating skills led to a sale at significantly above the asking price, and I had a signed contract in two days. Most important, she is an all-around nice person, always available to help with any aspect of the sale (like getting her husband to move heavy items). She responded quickly to texts and e-mails and also had good backup from her team, which meant that someone was always available if I had a question. I felt completely confident that every detail would be taken care of.

Louise worked with me to get my house ready to sell, and she and her team pitched in to help with the organization, purging, and staging of the house. She put a lot of her time and resources into selling our house. And she also helped me find the right house to purchase once my house sold, going beyond just taking me to listings that any agent could find.
06/07/2014 - Sold a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $575K in Falls Church, VA.
Louise helped me to sell my house, downsize my belongings, and find a condo efficiently. I am very happy in my new place. She was thorough and knew which task needed to be done in what order.

We have bought and sold several houses during our marriage. Louise Molton is the best agent we ever had. She is extremely well-informed about market conditions and attentive to details, and always kept us informed. Faced with a difficult situation with a potential buyer, Louise guided us skillfully to an even better than expected conclusion! She is very personable and a consummate professional.
06/05/2014 - Sold a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $525K in Fairfax, VA.
Louise Molton was our agent when we sold our home and made the move to a new house that was a better fit for our family. Having Louise on our side during the process was a dream come true! She helped us through every step of the buying and selling transactions and made it all go so smoothly. My husband and I were very impressed by the care and attention that Louise took to make sure we found the perfect house to buy. One of the things I really appreciated was that she would answer her phone quickly and return messages right away. She was always available to discuss any concerns that we had and made us feel that we were her top priority. She has a considerable knowledge of the Northern Virginia area and she was able to locate an area that works out perfectly for our family. I would highly recommend using Louise Molton and her team if you are thinking of buying or selling a home. She is fantastic!
06/05/2014 - Sold a Single Family home in 2013 in Falls Church, VA.
Louise and her team went above and beyond my expectations to sell my $1.2 million house in approximately 3 weeks. She had great advice about staging the property and addressing the little things that, while inexpensive to change, made a huge difference. She promptly and expertly addressed each bump on the road as we went to settlement (and there were quite a few) -- and always with grace and cheerfulness. Louise also found my new home with all of the attributes I was looking for, and guided me smoothly to settlement. I highly recommend Louise!

Louise guided me through the ups and downs of the sale of my home of 34 years with professionalism, humor, and grace. Her professional recommendations were spot on, she was patient when I got crabby, and she became a friend, which I would wager is not always the outcome of a real estate transaction! I highly recommend Louise
