Why Should You Choose The Gunnels Group As Your Charlottesville Real Estate Professionals?

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  Chris was so helpful when I was looking to relocate from out of state. He always made it a priority to show me homes for sale when I was in... read more town for a few days and was even kind enough to meet the inspector at the home I purchased as well as the septic inspector when I wasn't able to be in town. He went above and beyond and it was greatly appreciated!

    Zillow 5 Star Review  I can’t rate Chris regarding his negotiation skills as there weren’t any negotiating to do. Chris understood what I was looking for and showed me properties that suited my needs... read more and was honest and forthcoming with his opinion if he felt a particular property did not. He was quite observant as to any potential structural issues. He also took room measurements and did the walk through for me when I was unavailable to do so. I absolutely highly recommend Chris!

    Zillow 5 Star Review  Maggie did a simply wonderful job in handling the listing and sale of our home. We were impressed with her enthusiasm for our property from the start and the professionalism... read more she demonstrated in managing all aspects of the listing and sale. As an experienced agent, Maggie's guidance and advice proved invaluable every step of the way, and we greatly appreciated her acute attention to detail and prompt response to our questions and concerns. She has a particularly keen eye for staging and marketing properties, and the professional photographer she engaged captured stunning pictures of our home and property for marketing purposes that we're convinced made all the difference in finding a quick buyer. We couldn't have been happier with the attention and professionalism Maggie provided us and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home quickly and efficiently.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  I just cannot say enough about Maggie Gunnels. At times it seemed almost as an unfair advantage having her and her team as our realtor. Her market knowledge and instincts... read more allowed us to sell our home in a week for thousands more than we expected. When it came to finding our new home, she was sweet and patient, but when negotiating with the seller she was sharp and persistent. Maggie was determined to make sure we had the perfect home at the right price. Always quick to respond to questions, or just talk us through a nerve racking experience.

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  One of the best realtors I've ever worked with. As an active duty military member, I've purchased and sold multiple homes across the United States; I've been fortunate to have... read more solid realtors. For this particular purchase, I bought the house next door and originally intended to work through the title company stuff on my own with the seller. I had Chris get involved as a matter of convenience, and I'm glad I did. Since the property had a couple mobile homes on it and one was recorded as personal property instead of regular real estate, the transaction became much more complicated than any of my prior purchases. Chris did the research to figure out what all my options were several times as different decision points came up. Additionally, I work a few hours away and completed much of the transaction remotely; the complexity of this particular purchase likely would have made it impossible to complete while remote without Chris' assistance. Bottom Line: Chris knows his trade and can be counted on to go the extra mile.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  Maggie was by far the best realtor we have worked with. We had been looking for a home for over 2 years and had been through a handful of different... read more realtors in the Charlottesville area--none of which compare to the care and attention we received from Maggie. As first time home buyers, we were excited and nervous about the process. Maggie put us at ease and was with us every step of the way. The best part was she gave us a beautiful housewarming gift at our closing! Could not recommend a sweeter, more thoughtful person to work with!

    Zillow 5 Star Review  We want to thank you so much for making our first home buying experience absolutely incredible! Buying a first home in such a difficult market was daunting especially when buying... read more from across the country but you made the process seamless.

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  Mr. Fornecker is an excellent realtor who advised me all the way through the buying process. From the moment he showed us the property we were interested in purchasing,... read more he showed his expertise in touring the house. He was knowledgeable and patient, giving us advice as to what to expect once the process of making an offer began. Throughout the weeks we were involved in completing the contract, he assisted me as to where to sign or initial, if necessary. He showed me how to sign electronically, something I had never done. Mr. Fornecker was very helpful in the inspection of the property, to make sure that the seller would correct what was needed to be sure that the house was ready for closure. I highly recommend Mr. Fornecker as a very qualified realtor who takes the time to be sure that the buyer is satisfied in purchasing a property. Sincerely, Esther Burch
