She was great to work with in selling our house. We entered into negotiations with the buyer, helping to resolve some contingencies and to come to an agreement that was suitable to all parties.

Cathy and her team are AMAZING! We met Cathy, completely by chance, when we found her on the Internet in 2007. We were buying our very first home. We were living in Maryland at the time and over the course of two weekends. Cathy took us from one end of the county to the other and, I swear, showed us about 30 houses.We reached out to her this year when we decided to move again and were paired up with her and Janice Singh. We were provided weekly lists of homes within our criteria, but found one home that we absolutely loved so we didn’t have to spend full lot of time looking at too much. Janice was in constant contact with us and kept us abreast of anything that needed to be addressed. I would recommend Cathy’s Home Team to anybody!

Cathy had been helping us find the farm property we wanted in NOVA (not a simple task!) when we learned that we were actually transferring south. As our buyer agent, she was diligent, dedicated, and understanding. We were very grateful for her as she dug into restrictions on each property we considered.When we learned we were leaving the area, of course she was the person we trusted with the sale of our home! She knows everything (Literally, I think everything) about the Dominion Valley community.Though we went live just as the interest hikes were coming quickly, she sold our home to the first family who saw it! She handled the complicated relocation process with ease and grace and made everything manageable.

Cathy and her team did a fantastic job! I have bought and sold homes now with her team and both experiences were smooth and enjoyable. We are very pleased! Thank you for all you do Cathy!

Cathy is everything you want in a realtor. She sold the house quickly and with no surprises. She’s honest and has decades of knowledge. I will definitely be working with Cathy in the future.

Cathy's Home Team did a fantastic job in selling our home recently. With Cathy's 20 years of experience and living in DVCC, she had extensive knowledge in selling homes in our community. My husband and I have moved numerous times. Cathy was by far the best realtor we have ever worked with. I would highly recommend her to any of our family and friends.

Cathy Strittmater and her team were amazing to work with! They helped us sell our home in Warrenton, VA and also buy our new, forever home in Haymarket, VA. Cathy and team advised us well in getting our home in Warrenton, VA prepared to sell. They pulled great comps and then sat down with us to look at them and help us determine how we wanted to move forward. Throughout the entire home-selling process Cathy and team were unbelievably responsive and answered every question we had, which was a lot as young home buyers. Cathy and team were also extremely knowledgeable about the Dominion Valley community in Haymarket where we were looking to buy, and really helped us find exactly what we were looking for. We truly couldn't have been happier about our decision to go with Cathy. She helped make the entire process easy and efficient! We hope to stay in our new house for a VERY long time, but I definitely recommend Cathy to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area. Thank you Cathy!

Cathy was the most incredible agent! My husband and I were first time home buyers with no idea what to expect (especially in this market!) and she guided us through every question with ease and thoroughness. I never felt silly for asking the million and a half questions I had and she was always thoughtful and timely with her responses. She went to bat for us more than once to make sure we got all we deserved in the deal. I cannot recommend her enough!

We were able to use Cathy on both our real estate transactions of buying a new home and selling our previous one. She was able to find our home, develop a successful offer strategy and negotiate the transaction very smoothly. The sale of our previous home went just as smoothly. Her pricing advice proved to be right on target. We would highly recommend her for either side of your real estate plan.

Cathy was our real estate GPS! She navigated the whole process flawlessly! We were newbies at the whole process of selling a house, but Cathy prepared us for everything and there were no surprises and all of her advice was spot on! We can't overstate how knowledgeable and helpful she is. The icing on the cake is how friendly she is and how easy it was to work with her. You can't go wrong with using her as your agent!

I was blessed enough to find Cathy and her team through a google search. We were moving across the country from New Mexico to Northern Virginia and we needed boots on the ground to help us find the perfect home and location for our family. We talked to her at length and she really listened to our needs and wants. I flew across the country to tour homes with Cathy. Despite terrible weather (an ice storm) Cathy was not deterred; before I returned to New Mexico she found us a turnkey house that had everything we had asked for. Because of her connections she had found us a pocket listing that hadn’t gone public yet. She also referred us to a great local mortgage company who also made the process easy. We’ve lived in our new home for two months and everyday I’m impressed by the house and the safe family friendly location. I know it is because of Cathy’s intuition and experience that we found our forever home,

Cathy is incredible to work with throughout all aspects of both selling and purchasing a home. She has a ton of knowledge about the area and schools, navigates the market well, and will be your biggest advocate! She also helped my husband and I for years with renting our properties, and ultimately helped us with find land and put us in touch with a custom builder to design and build our forever home. I would easily say we would work with her again, because we actually do keep working with her again and again!

110% recommended. Cannot say enough good things. This is our second transaction with Cathy (first as purchaser and recently as seller) and both have been flawless. Simply put she will make sure your interests are taken care of first and foremost. That includes preparing you for a purchase or sale and actually executing. Cathy has been strong advocate and tenacious worker to accomplish what is best for us on both occasions, even when dealt unique circumstances on short notice. She readily accepted our own challenges and was more then willing to go the extra mile. Her knowledge of the local market is outstanding and she uses sound judgment and practices to get you the best deal. She will absolutely take care of you no matter what your situation. She provides sage but simple, realistic and relevant advice in what is a very important transaction.

Cathy Strittmater was great to work with, and helped navigate a number of issues that came up throughout the process of selling my parents' condo. We had a buyer back out at the last minute, had to do renovations and even had to weather a leaking water heater from the upstairs condo that damaged our unit right before it went back on the market. But Cathy smartly handled it all and throughout the several months this all took -- the market was slow during the pandemic -- she quickly replied to all my many emails and phone calls as I worried about everything. She knew how to find contractors for every job, was always available and I don't know how we would have gotten this done without her unfailing help. I highly recommend Cathy as your realtor, she will get it done.

Cathy Strittmater was our agent when we first bought our townhouse in 2017 and we absolutely loved her then! But this time around, she was even more amazing! We were both selling our townhome and looking to buy a single family home in the area. She gave us amazing tips on how to prepare our home for sale, all of which we did, and then helped us figure out just how much we should be listing our home for- which we ended up selling above asking thanks to her! With her tips for preparing our townhome, negotiating skills, and knowledge of the local area, she helped us sell our townhome for the highest price in our area. She guided us through every offer we received and talked us through the pros and cons of each one too, which really helped us make our decision easy.When it came to buying our next home, she went above and beyond, helping us at the drop of a hat to see homes that came on the market as soon as possible- especially with the market at this moment, it was crazy how quickly things would come on and go off, so getting in to see these homes quickly was essential. We ended up finding a beautiful home in a great area and she helped us make the steps to purchasing. Cathy was great with communicating with us and we will absolutely use her as our realtor again if we decide to sell this next home in a few years!
