"I consulted with several leading Real Estate firms in Northern Virginia to determine the best selling price for my home of all these firms Marc Dosik was the most knowledgeable about the current housing market which led to me selling my home for thousands of dollars more that had I gone with the other Real Estate firms. He also was the most organized and professional when it came to showing and closing on the property. If I was selling another property in Northern Virginia I clearly would call on Marc again."

"He sold our Condo in just under 2 months. He puts forth 110% to sell your place - staging, signage, networking, and fliers are just a few extras that made our experience great. He also found a home for us as well with no headaches. He is courteous, works hard, and great communication are just a few qualities that we appreciated most. You will not be disappointed."

"Fantastic! Mary is the most hard working and down-to-earth agent I have had the pleasure to work with. I was selling my mother's home. She really listened to our family, responded promptly to any questions we had, and made the process pain free for us. We interviewed several agents but decided on Mary as she seemed so in-tune with the area and easy to work with. Mary suggested some updates to the home that would pay off, and steered us away from items my family had in mind that would not be worth a return on investment. As a result I think we were able to capture a full price offer within 5 days. She even went above and beyond the call of duty and put new mulch down herself in my mother's front flower beds."

"Since we are looking in to buy in Ohio, Mark could not work with us due to not being licensed there. He was very helpful and spent several minutes on the phone answering questions and helping me understand a couple different unconventional loans.

You can estimate a bathroom addition’s value between 10% to 20% of a home’s value. But this also accounts for extra square footage since homes with more bathrooms tend to have more space. When considering adding one, you should know that a bathroom generally adds only $5,000 to an appraisal price initially, with adjustments made for other factors like local home values.
Garages increase a property’s value by about 80% of the build price. The national average cost to build a garage is $23,900.
However, on an appraisal, a garage contributes to the whole rather than as a part. For example, if you have a garage, your appraiser then tries to compare it to nearby homes with garages, which often have a higher value.
A bedroom can add anywhere from $10,000 to $25,000 or more to an appraisal. It depends heavily on the size of the bedroom, the overall home’s value, the location, and what amenities it might include (like a walk-in closet).
A drive-by appraisal usually costs $100 to $150. For a drive-by appraisal, the appraiser only visually assesses the home's exterior, in addition to reviewing the real estate records on the home and comparing it to nearby homes.
An FHA appraisal costs between $400 and $700. Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loans are usually less strict, so the appraisals are often more affordable. VA appraisal fees range from $425 to $900 for a single-family home. Compared to FHA loans, VA loans can be more involved.
A home appraiser will look at the real estate paperwork related to the home, but they will also do an exterior and interior assessment. Reviews include the square footage of the home and/or acreage of the lot, the age and condition of the home, construction materials used, the general state of the economy and local market, and the design and style of the home, along with any special features it may have. While an appraiser won’t be as thorough as a home inspector, they will likely notice very obvious problems and defects.
