"Our family has worked with Lisa on two purchases and a sale - and through it all, Lisa supported us with wonderful kindness and skill. She took the time to get to know us and made recommendations tailored to our family's unique needs and preferences. She walked us through a tricky simultaneous closing to get our forever home (we love our new place so much!). She brought great knowledge and recommendations to all our interactions, along with a very welcome dose of humor and understanding, giving us confidence that we were in great hands. If you're looking for someone who can bring creativity, expertise, and fun to what is otherwise a very stressful process, go with Lisa!"

"I would trust Lisa with anything. We needed to move urgently for medical reasons, but also we did not want to make a stupid financial disaster because of our desperation. Lisa listened to what we needed, and what we wanted. She showed us homes I asked to see based on listing photos - and I proved how bad I am at judging photos! She suggested homes that fit our needs better. When we toured a few homes, she really listened to what we liked, didn't like, and more importantly, what kind of life we wanted. Yes, I wanted sidewalks. But more than that? I wanted a place where my kids can walk the dog safely without traffic. We ended up in a place without sidewalks but with cute cul-de-sacs perfect for dog walking, bike riding, and doing chalk in the driveway. She was compassionate and realistic in helping me see through my own emotional need to move quickly and helped us to meet our medical needs while still finding a solidly good home that will let our family live happily for a long time. Plus she's funny and smart and a joy to spend time with."

"Lisa sold my house in just over 24 hours! Let's face it, realtors are a dime dozen in Las Vegas. However, what separates one from the other is the competence, the professionalism, the care and ability to listen as well as guide the buyer, or seller. Lisa specializes in just that, she embodies allof these facets and more. She has community knowledge, compassion, human component of understanding, and supreme market intelligence. In the past I've worked with other realtors, who were nice, but always seem to change and get pushy the closer it gets to finalizing a deal. Their overwhelming desperate desire to close becomes paramount and you, the buyer /seller, no longer do. Lisa is not that kind of realtor. With her wonderful communication facility she clearly, and concisely informs you from start to finish about the process. She keeps you informed about market competition and climate. She is strong in negotiation, and incredibly responsive to your needs. When looking for realtor I strongly recommend Lisa for your home buying and selling needs. You'll be so happy you did!"

"Lisa went over and above during the listing process. We had multiple offers in the first few days. We ended up selling over list price and to a cash buyer. I can’t thank her enough for helping me navigate the selling processing always having my best interests at heart."

"Lisa guided us through a sale and a purchase, making both go incredibly smooth. She is great to work with, professional, well organized, and responded to all of our many questions and concerns at all hours of the day. Beyond that she is a genuinely caring person and “in it” along with you."

"I am very pleased to have to opportunity to recommend Lisa Santacaterina as a realtor. She helped me through my recent house hunt in Roanoke area. I was living in Northern Virginia, so having someone local to check things out and follow up was vital. Lisa visited several homes, taking video and pictures and giving her impression of the home. I explained the things I really cared about, like good gardening space, and she made sure to include that kind of information in her report of the home. If it sounded promising, she was always available to tour the home with me when I could work it into my schedule. This is how I was able to find the home I purchased. Lisa also was terrific at follow up and looking for issues. She stayed in close contact with the other realtor representing the seller, counseled me on getting radon testing done and followed through on repairs and remediation that needed to be done. She also followed through to make sure I knew and understood all the results of inspections, so I was clear on what work I might need to take on after the house was purchased. I like that there have been no real surprises and I credit Lisa's attention to detail for that outcome. She also found out about a lender credit and requested and got a seller credit, which saved me over 2000 dollars on my closing costs. She was always responsive to my texts, emails and phone calls. I think I was a little high maintenance! Even now after the house has closed, she is still there to be supportive. like lending me a stepladder, since my stuff is not moved yet. If you are looking for a conscientious, honest, communicative and supportive real estate agent, then I suggest you talk to Lisa. You will not regret it!"

"Lisa was absolutely wonderful! Lisa is extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of buying a home and this helped the process go smoothly. I was really impressed with how well Lisa read us as not only customers, but as individuals. She was able to pinpoint what we wanted in a forever home and was able to provide us just that, a beautiful home with land! We also appreciate her honesty when it comes to houses on the market, instead of treating us like a sale. Buying a home during a pandemic is stressful, but Lisa was a beacon of light in the midst of all the chaos. Not only was Lisa communicative during the whole home buying process, she has reached out to us again, even after our move to make sure we were settled in. Thank you again Lisa."

"Lisa is very knowledge and easy to work with. She is very responsive and will go the extra mile to meet your needs. Once we decided to make an offer on a house, she was great at negotiating the price down. She even checked in after we closed on the house to make sure everything was going well. I would definitely recommend her to friends."

"As first time home buyers we were nervous stepping into the field without help. We were paired with Lisa and she has been the most amazing agent! We can't express how pleased were with her field experience, knowledge, reliability, communication and overall likeable personality. With her as our agent we were able to get our dream home and couldn't be happier with the end result. We appreciate everything you did for us Lisa and for anyone in need of an agent we highly recommend Lisa. Thank you for your help!"

"Lisa Santacaterina was our buyer agent and we closed on our home this summer 2021. She is absolutely phenomenal. We decided to work with Lisa because she was a veteran agent who is extremely knowledgeable about real estate, passionate about helping her clients, and she always made herself available throughout the process. She is very patient, very kind, and extremely helpful. We had such a great experience with Lisa that we used her as our seller agent for an investment “fix and flip” property we sold this fall in Draper, Virginia. We highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. I assure you, she will make the process very pleasurable. We look forward to working with Lisa in the future as we continue to buy and sell investment properties."

"I could not have asked for a better realtor! She is very patient, thorough, and friendly. Easy to talk to about what I was looking for in a house. She is also very quick to respond to calls. I was buying a house for the first time and she was able to explain every step along the way."

"Lisa is awesome! Instantly, I felt more like a friend than a client. My family and I moved from Sc to Va and she helped us buy a house before seeing it in person. She is truly passionate about what she does and is really more interested in finding happiness for others rather than making a sell. Lisa went through great lengths to ensure we were matched to the perfect home. Without a doubt, I would and will use her again and again for my home search needs as well as recommend her to all friends and family. Thank you Lisa for everything. You are amazing!"

"Lisa was so great to work with. Her kindness and helpfulness was there from the start. She listened to our needs and wants and helped us navigate the difficulties of being first time home buyers in a crazy market. Her communication skills are excellent; she worked with our lender to strengthen our offer. We couldn’t be happier with her work and thank her so much!"

"Trustworthy, supportive, understanding, honest, kind and always professional. Selling a home can be so much more than finding a buyer and signing on the line. This home had 5 generations pass through it's doors, and to a few people, it was more than just a house. I felt at a tremendous amount of responsibility to honor the 2 generations that were present before me as well as making sure I protected the inheritance of the 2 generations that came after me. Lisa listened to all of my concerns during each step of the way and when I had problems making decisions, she always went over the options no matter how many times I needed them to be explained. I will never forget how hard she worked for me and most of all, how this heartbreaking task was made a bit easier because of her unwaivering support."

"Lisa was fantastic in every regard - she was attentive, incredibly knowledgeable, and patient with us during our home buying search. During each visit she curated a better idea of what we were searching for, and by the end of our time together she had found a gorgeous home for us to live in! I could not have asked for a better experience."
