Client Testimonials

Nothing but praise for how professional and reassuring Christy was during my real estate sale! Christy was enthusiastic, positive, reassuring and knowledgeable in each aspect of selling my home. She made me feel like I was the only person she had to work with and I know that she had many other sellers and buyers she was making to feel the same way at the same time!!

She recommended contractors to assist me with making the deal seamless.

I have already recommended her to friends looking to buy or sell their homes and should I ever need assistance again in the market, Christy will be my one and only choice!

Christy was wonderful to work with. She listens to what you are looking for in a home and can find that perfect one. She is very quick and knowledgeable on all the numbers. Christy can give you a cost run down on prices and percentages. Christy has a great eye to spot potential problems and alert you to them so you aren’t going in blind in this market. Christy was a true joy to work with.

Morgan Family – 5 stars on realtor.com

The first time I talked to Christy, she told me she wanted to find my dream home. She did it with the first home she showed me! She was wonderful to work with and pulled together a first-rate team that ended up getting my closing completed within 2 weeks of my initial offer. I would highly recommend her for anyone in the Palmyra area buying or selling a house.

James – 5 stars on realtor.com

Our experience working with Christy as our real estate agent this year was absolutely fantastic. She was recommended to us by some friends at Lake Monticello and she was invested and engaged in the house-hunting process from our first moment of contact with her. Christy characteristically approached her agent-related duties and responsibilities with high energy and enthusiasm which never waned and was a real encouragement to us. Christy’s can-do attitude and dedicated availability provided unparalleled support and service before, during, and after purchasing our house which was delightfully impressive and very much appreciated throughout the process. Christy’s sincere personal concern for the welfare of her clients and her tremendous professional expertise is an unbeatable combination that was a true blessing for us. Christy is quite simply an outstanding real estate agent and a wonderful young lady and has our highest possible recommendation to be your real estate agent as well. She is the best!

Thank you for being amazing

Irene A – LF Survey

Christy Lynn Beck was great to work with throughout the process. She is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I live in Oregon and was purchasing the home long distance. She kept me informed and was also always available to show potential homes to my family. When I found a home I wanted to make an offer on, she had another client who was interested in the same home. She then referred me to Maggie Gunnels, who was also great to work with. Maggie jumped in and guided me through the offer and buying process. There were other bids and I know she was definitely the reason I secured the home. Both Christy and Maggie were great to work with and I would recommend them without hesitation!

I’ve worked with Maggie Gunnels for several years. She is responsive, knowledgeable, personable, and very easy to work with. She has a great personality and helps you feel relaxed and informed throughout the process. In addition, her husband John Fornecker, and partner Christy Lynn Beck are equally great to work with. They are a fantastic team and I couldn’t imagine using anyone else to help with the sale or purchase of property.

Christy is an incredible agent! She was willing to work within my schedule, she was able to tailor her recommendations to what was important to me, and she knows her stuff when it comes what to look for when you’re looking at a house. This was my first homebuying experience and I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable or supportive agent!

Danielle Cart – Google Review


He helped me when needed. Very professional and always communicated when I needed him too. He is always for his clients. I lost my husband last year and it was hard for me to do all of the work on my house and Chris helped me and showed me what I need to do to get my house ready to put on the market. Thank You Chris.

Alicia H. – Zillow Review

Chris understood what I was looking for and showed me properties that suited my needs and was honest and forthcoming with his opinion if he felt a particular property did not fit. 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!

Michelle P. – Zillow Review

I believe I was the first client that Chris had served as a realtor. Despite that, he had a very good grasp of things and a great personality. I had very little to spend on a new home, and no prospects were available in my price range. In addition, I was on a short deadline to find a house. Practically speaking, this was a near impossible situation, and I needed a miracle. Through it all, Chris was very willing to go anywhere to show properties and he maintained a highly positive attitude. I had a strong sense that something good was coming which was based on my faith rather than practicality, and Chris didn’t balk at that but was with me all the way through it. Then one Saturday, with about 2 weeks left, we viewed a home that didn’t pan out, and I had no other prospects. At that point Chris remembered driving by a house that was for sale by owner and offered to show me where it was, even though technically that could have cut him out of the transaction. We drove there and found that it was in my price range and in great shape, unlike anything else we had seen over the few months of looking. I made an offer which was accepted. In gratitude for Chris going the extra mile, I chose to keep him involved. I’m so glad I did, because he walked me through all the many technical details, which I would have been clueless about on my own – he was well worth every penny! Buying a home is complex and stressful, and today’s market is especially challenging. Throughout the whole process, Chris stayed positive and put my needs ahead of his own. He’s the kind of guy you want in your corner.

John M. – Zillow 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 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!

Meredith D. – Zillow Review

He is very helpful and always there to assist, I had a very good experience with him buying my first home; he did an awesome job on finding what types of home I was looking for. Overall, I’m very satisfied with his service.

Abdul P. – Zillow 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 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.

Steven C. – Zillow Review

Chris was extremely committed to understanding what our family needed to make this investment. He went above and beyond to ensure communication and scheduling was quick; especially in the hot market we were buying in. Great communicator throughout and after the sale, even when questions came up. I highly recommend him for any real-estate needs.

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 from across the country but you made the process seamless. We really appreciate how you checked out and videotaped every house we were interested in viewing. The guidance and insight that you provided exceeded our expectations. You even met with our parents to view the house when we were not able to view it prior to putting an offer in. We will recommend you to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a house in the Charlottesville area. We felt incredibly invited into the Lake Monticello community while working with you. Thank you again for making the process of buying a home enjoyable and smooth!
