Charlene is a Pro's Pro. She helped us through the whole process and it was seamless!

Charlene is outstanding, and I will use her for all of my real estate transactions in the future. I highly recommend her to my friends and colleagues!

She is, by far the personification of the ideal agent: smart, courteous, extremely thorough, honest, direct, and knowledgeable of the nuances that any tractions may involve. She was wonderful in guiding us through the negotiation phase, the quirky inspection ramifications here, and the changing of deadlines- as well as the emotional aspects of the deal with ours and the sellers. Couldn't have been more helpful! 

We just completed the sale of our house in Old Town Alexandria - the 18th such buy or sell transaction we've had the pleasure of working with Charlene Schaper over the last 30+ years. It couldn't have gone more smoothly or well! Charlene is the consumate professional agent. She's totally knowledgeable about buying and selling from the legal, financial, structural and emotional aspects of the process and is a joy to work with. We'll never use another agent!

Charlene has not had a single misstep in 19 years. I was fortunate to work with her! I am so grateful I could benefit from her deep knowledge of Alexandria and the Port Royal's insides, outsides, workings, and oddities.

When we decided to sell our house, we interviewed a number of realtors to find the right fit for us. While there were those with whom we had a prior personal friendship and those who bragged they employed the latest and greatest technology to sell our house, as well as those who claimed to have an extensive list of ready buyers and promised to sell your house for the asking price our they would buy it themselves, we chose to go with a highly recommended agent who had helped our dearest friends and neighbors buy and sell multiple homes in Old Town over the years.  Each of the other agents seemed more interested in listing our home than in selling it. We wanted to deal with a single person; we valued honesty and experience in our neighborhood; and, we sought someone with unlimited energy and availability.  Charlene has been a broker for 45 years and has focused her efforts on properties in Old Town Alexandria and Northern Virginia since 1980. She had the experience and professional contacts in the area to recommend the most cost-effective home warranty, touch-up and inspection companies, and professional photographers, all of whom turned out to be the right choice for us. She pers...

I have worked with several good realtors over the years both buying and selling, but I have to say Charlene has been the best to work with. Not only is she thoroughly aware of the current market and style trends, but she is very proactive in what needs to be done to close a sale quickly and efficiently.  She searches out the best solutions for any problems that arise and has a network of service providers to get things done cost effectively and promptly. She has endless energy and is a great communicator. I could not recommend her more!

I'm writing this to let you know what a great job Charlene did selling my condo. I was so happy that it sold in 6 days. The work that Charlene did to make sure that it sold in a timely manner was amazing. I would like to let anyone know to use Charlene to sell their home and they will be just as happy as I am.

Charlene, I just wanted to write you a note to thank you for all your work and diligence selling my sister's apartment. You are absolutely awesome!

I met Charlene Schaper over 5 years ago. I sought her out for advice about a condo I own, in Alexandria, and the Old Town Alexandria market. She came very highly recommended for her honesty and great knowledge of the area' s Real Estate market. Upon the untimely death of my beloved brother, I reached out to Charlene to assist in selling 3 properties he had owned. Charlene was always available to answer questions or concerns that would arise. Her gentle guidance and timely solutions to difficulties that did occur helped reduce the stress on me. I cannot express how much appreciation I have for Charlene. The compassion, knowledge, and great advice she shared with me made a difficult, personal, situation so much easier to go through.

Thank you once again for such a good experience in selling our third home. Your knowledge of properties and sales methods are unmatched! You staged our property beautifully, secured a contract within days, and brought us top dollar. You hit every mark! We have worked with other realtors in the past but none have worked as hard for clients as you. It has been a genuine pleasure to do business with you and we look forward to working with you again in the future. Best of luck to you and thanks again for all.

Charlene Schaper met and exceeded our expectations. She proved again that she is one of the best in the business. She took a challenging situation and made it work in our favor.

Charlene has been our agent for 20 years and we would never consider anyone else. She is very professional and knowledgeable about all facts dealing with sales and purchasing.

Charlene always exceeds our expectations. This was our third real estate purchase in as many years and we will continue to come back in the future. We always feel truly valued as clients and Charlene always goes above and beyond.
