I worked with Rick and the Mountjoy Group on an estate sale - stellar, seamless, professional! I chose them because they are full service group, offering options for quick sale, full listing, or listing with spruce and fix-up. The process was clear and smooth. Rick worked with me more like a partner than a realtor. He gave great advice, well-informed insights, and reliable estimates and predictions. I would highly recommend him and his firm for any type of real estate sale.

Strongly Recommend. Christian helped me purchase my first property this Spring 2019 and I have only positive feedback. Christian was excellent help throughout the entirety of the search, offer, contract, and closing stages and beyond. He is incredibly responsive, motivated, and detail-oriented throughout the entire ordeal; taking time after hours to follow up on leads, make last-minute adjustments to documents, or answer questions on the contract terms or anything about the home-buying process in general. I cannot imagine a more seamless home-buying experience.
Christian is a strong negotiator who fully knows the ins and outs of the VA real estate business and well-connected facilitator. Christian connected me with excellent home inspectors, deep cleaning services, moving services, and even a handyman. Christian is truly an agent that you want in your corner as he will always go the extra mile to hook you up with everything you need as a prospective homeowner. Even as I write this review I know I can always text him with any dumb "new-homeowner question" and his reply will always be quick, concise, professional, and informative.

Bought a single family home in 2019 for approximately $300K in Fredericksburg, VA 22401.
Highly recommended. My husband and I didn't know what to expect as we bought our first home. We are a military family and in the process of buying a home in a different state, Christian has made the process stress free. His genuine care for clients, abundance of knowledge, and immediate response to any questions or concerns we had are only a few attributes that makes him a trustworthy agent. Choosing a real estate agent was challenging because not many knew the specifics of using the VA loan, yet Christian's expertise and assertive negotiating skills helped us save a lot of money.

Sold a single family home in 2018 for approximately $675K in Aldie, VA 20105.
Christian is highly responsive, professional and knows how to take care of his customers. He is incredibly intuitive and will address every concern you have. We feel fully confident recommending him to any potential home buyer or seller. He is after your best interest and not just to make a sale. He will make sure you are a satisfied buyer or seller. He provided extensive Comps so we knew how to value our home. He walked us through the entire process so we didn't have to face unknowns. He negotiated the final deal for us to meet and exceed our expectations.

Bought a town home in 2019 for approximately $325K in Manassas, VA 20111.
Christian was highly professional and motivated to ensure that I found the home I needed! He was in contact with me on a daily basis, no matter the time of the day to ensure I was properly updated on any given status. His knowledge of the home buying process really put my mind at ease, especially when I had questions. I highly recommend Christian for your next home buying or listing agent.

Very knowledgeable & enjoyable to work with. Went above & beyond to get things done for me so that I didn't have to fly back & forth to Virginia. He kept me informed on everything that took place as we were going through the steps & helped me to understand with no worries.

Rick and his team did an excellent job listing and selling our home. We initially listed it as For Sale by Owner but quickly realized that we needed a professional to handle this for us. Rick was the right choice. We were absent for most of the process but that did not hinder the process because of their professional capabilities. I would highly recommend and will use them again if the need arises. Excellent team.

Rick was a huge help as we navigated the new construction process and provided excellent guidance every step along the way. Additionally, his knowledge of not only the local housing market but the building process in general proved to be an invaluable asset. We absolutely love our new home and would recommend Rick without hesitation.

Rick was great to work with! Very smooth and fast process. One of the least salesy real estate professional's I talked to - just honest, straight-forward and easy-going.

Sold a single family home in 2017 for approximately $375K in Warrenton, VA 20186.
It was a pleasure to work with Rick Mountjoy and the Mountjoy Properties Team. They were referred to me by a close friend who is a real estate investor and uses them exclusively, I now see why! They sold my investment property in Warrenton and the process couldnt have been more easy, fast and pain free. They held an open house at the property the same weekend it went on the market and over 60 people came! We received an offer that day and it closed in under a month with no issues. Rick is very knowledgeable about the construction of homes, when we met to discuss listing we did a walkthrough of the house together and I felt like he was a home inspector! He also gave me great advise for how to arrange stuff in the house so that the pictures came out great and when I comes to selling a house nowadays pictures are what make people come see the house. His team does a great job of staying in communication, I always felt in the loop, and they very friendly and personable. Can't say enough about these guys, you certainly will not regret working with them.

Rick actually helped me out in finding a home in Maryland. I eventually settled on a place in Owings Mills, but we looked around Columbia and Elicott City as well. He was informative and kept me aware of what was to come throughout the process.

Rick recently helped us purchase our first home. We were new to Northern Virginia and knew nothing about the area. Rick was incredibly helpful in not only finding the perfect house for us, but also teaching us everything there is to know about Northern Virginia. He is very knowledgeable of the area, he knew all of the neighborhoods we were interested in and explained to us the details and differences of all of them. We ended up picking a new construction home in a beautiful up and coming neighborhood and we couldn't be more happy. Rick's family has been in the home business for a very long time and it shows. Rick knows everything there is to know about new construction, he made sure we picked the right options to maximize our home's value. If you're looking to buy in the Northern Virginia area I highly recommend giving Rick a call.

Sold a single family home in 2016 for approximately $850K in Woodbridge, VA 22192.
Rick Mountjoy has a great team that helped me every step of the way in selling my investment property. Their pre-sale meeting helped me determine what to renovate in the house to get the maximum sales price with the smallest investment possible. They have great connections with contractors and businesses you will need to renovate and list your home. I couldn’t have been more happy with Rick’s detailed system of selling homes – it was like he was always one step ahead of everything. I highly, highly recommend Rick and his team!

House hunting with Rick was a great experience. I've been through the homebuying experience a few times and Rick was the only one with whom I felt confident that he was listening to, working for, and looking out for me. He's a professional with a great human touch. I would definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone.

Rick helped me sell my home in McLean, and was professional and responsive during the entire process. He made the selling experience easy and fun, even though it was a complex estate sale. He oversaw the entire rehab process and his construction experience was invaluable. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy or sell in the Northern Virginia area!

Sold a single family home in 2016 for approximately $550K in Fairfax, VA 22032.
Rick recently sold my home in Fairfax. He was extremely professional and the property sold quickly and at a price that I was very happy with. His market knowledge was excellent as he knew exactly how to price the property. The marketing package that he put together for the property was awesome and undoubtedly helped sell the property faster and for a great price. Throughout the entire process he was very responsive always answering phone calls, replying to emails, and making sure that I always understood what was to follow. I will undoubtedly use Rick to buy or sell my next home and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a realtor.

Bought and sold a single family home in 2016 for approximately $575K in Centreville, VA 20121.
You will not be disappointment with Rick. He has been a part of multiple transactions for not only me and my husband but also my in-laws who are overseas. Rick was able to coordinate and ensure that everything was in order and communicated at all hours of the day to guarantee my in-laws received excellent customer service. He has also been instrumental in the selling of our home and has done more than what most agents would do in providing research and details regarding the market. He is super knowledgeable about the area and is an expert in all things construction (doesn’t matter new or old) and always returns and/or answers my calls and emails promptly.
What makes Rick stand out above all others is his personalized care and attention to his clients. He goes above and beyond the transaction and follows-up often to make sure your needs are met with the home. We are extremely pleased!

Sold a home in 2016 in Falls Church, VA 22042.
If you want to buy, or sell, you'll want to do so with Rick Mountjoy, Jr. You won't be sorry!
I was NOT an easy client; I will admit it. I was living in a condo in Falls Church, stressed about the noise levels of my neighbors and wanted out stat. I not only needed to sell my place, but turn around and buy a place. I was downright moody at times and unnecessarily stressed, but Rick maintained a cool head, kept on smiling and made my selling and buying experiences more pleasurable than I could have imagined.
I was originally planning on using the same realtor I purchased my condo with in 2010. But, a co-worker raved about Rick and the extra mile he would go. Choosing Rick was my smartest move ever. I sold my condo high, in a couple of weeks, and bought low.
But, it was everything in-between that mattered. As a single person, I didn't want to take on a house requiring a lot of maintenance. I found a beautiful home in Alexandria, but Rick saw some things that concerned him and suggested using a very thorough home inspector who would really zero in on potential issues and take the time to go over all of them with me. Well, that was the best advice because boy was that beautiful home hiding some scary. At another home, Rick suggested going back at a different time of the day and when we did, I found the highway noise downright dreadful.
Rick has a lot of knowledge not just in buying/selling, but in construction and he really had me looking at a variety of things. Let's face it, there are some people who "flip" houses on their own and you could end up forking over a lot of money down the road to fix them.
I can't say enough about Rick. My two open homes were awesome and I think having him conduct them versus some assistant who can't answer many questions really played a part in that. The photographer he hired also took amazing pictures and my listings were everywhere. My place sold quickly and he was able to negotiate me an awesome two month buy-back to give me time to look for a place and close on it. And, that's exactly what happened.
He is very well-versed in Veteran's loans and he had a couple of different lenders providing me rates and I saved money there as well.
