I don't often give five stars unless they're deserved, and in this case I can say--without reservation--that Amanda has done an excellent job in both buying my new home and in selling my old one.
When it came time to sell the old home, she advised me how to stage it, she had resources and recommendations for services that could help me, and she answered all of my questions promptly, courteously, and selflessly--even when I regrettably interrupted her vacation. She took care of little things for me (found paperwork I left behind and took in the garbage cans when I was out of town during the sale process), and she made me feel like I had a partner throughout the entire process.
Amanda is the type of positive and friendly woman who attracts like-minded people, and her team reflects that. Kim was a pleasure to deal with during the closing process--timely and professional, and easy to communicate with her anytime I had a question. Brandon also was very helpful--he patiently educated me about the process early on, and he often drove a long way to show me homes on a moment's notice. All three are very friendly, knowledgeable, and selfless with their time, and I now consider them friends.
During our time together, it just so happened that Amanda was named on Washingtonian Magazine's list of Top Real Estate Agents in the DC Area. I would have been surprised to not see her name there. The entire experience was actually fun--it's not often that such a stressful thing like buying and selling houses can ultimately be remembered as fun, but that's just Amanda's style. She has a true passion for real estate sales, and you would be lucky to have her in your corner.

I wish I could give more stars! Amanda helped us through the process of selling our home of 33 years. We've never sold a home, so we were in foreign territory through it all! She answered my gazillion "oddball" questions and was always patient when I was anxious or overwhelmed. We couldn't have asked for a better person to represent us and our best interests!! Amanda has a wonderful sense of humor that helped me, personally, through some stressful situations. I wish I could take her with us to help us buy our FOREVER home in St. Augustine, FL!!! We will never forget you, Amanda! And THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts.

We very much enjoyed working with Amanda to buy our first home. We had little background knowledge about the buying process, and Amanda was there whenever we needed her to explain something or help us out. We also appreciate how flexible and responsive she was. For example, she was willing to accommodate our schedules by showing us houses on evenings and weekends. It was lots of fun to get to know Amanda during hours in the car going from house to house, and we'd definitely recommend her to our friends!

Amanda was absolutely amazing to work with, she provided good advice at each step, was able to run through various scenarios with me and helped me take fact and data based decisions. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor.

Amanda was great! She did an excellent job marketing our house and we had tons of showings which ended up in multiple offers and a sale in 9 days! She also navigated the closing with us efficiently. Pleasure to work with!

Amanda is fantastic! She showed me multiple properties that fit my criteria but unfortunately, for one reason or another, just didn’t work out. She refined her search based on my feedback and was able to find the perfect house. We were then able to get a contract in place quickly. I thought we were good from there but, with this being a foreclosure, little did I know that Fannie Mae’s settlement company moved at the speed of glaciers. Luckily for me, Amanda kept pushing them and while I had concerns that we wouldn’t close on time, she was able to get them to get their stuff done in time…even with an inbound snowstorm that closed almost everything in the DC area on the day of settlement.

Amanda is a true professional and dedicated to each of her clients. She helped us find the perfect home, while we were very demanding clients, we never felt as if our outrageous requests were too much, in fact Amanda helped us save a ton of money and got us into the perfect home for us, I can't recommend her enough and look forward to working with her again on our next purchase.
Buyer - 19829 Colchester Rd
Having dealt with myriad Real Estate Agents over many years and in several locations, my standards for excellence have continuously progressed higher. Amanda showed me over 30 properties, in more than seven locations, across multiple visits to the area. This included viewings that were late in the evenings, on weekends, and on two occasions, for more than four hours at a time. Her flexibility in meeting and bending to my demanding schedule allowed me to maximize the number of properties I could view in my limited available time. Therefore Amanda exceeded my expectations on every front. She is intelligent, knowledgeable, hard working, dedicated and yet somehow remains relatable and exceedingly friendly to work with. I can think of no other agent I would more highly recommend, and in fact, I can think of no other professional in ANY field, I would more highly recommend for any type of work that I would be more confident would reflect positively on my own judgement. If you need a Real Estate Agent in Northern Virginia, Amanda should be you first and only call!

Amanda was great! She was super responsive and always willing to come with us for any showings, inspections, etc.. She also helped us to find the new construction neighborhood that we ultimately ended up buying in, which was extremely helpful. She was also aware of details that we wouldn’t have thought of otherwise. Would definitely recommend her to others!

Amanda is the Best of the Best
From the moment we were in contact with Amanda, she took the initiative on everything. She is laser-focused, has our best interests in mind, and she is clearly one of the hardest working people in the business. She is not only quick and responsive, she goes above and beyond. If you are looking for a realtor, look no further, because she is who you want on your team! She guides you through the house-hunting process in a thoughtful, caring way. It is as if Amanda takes you on as a family member of her own, listens to what you value, and works day and night to make sure that you achieve your goals. She puts her clients first, does it all with a smile, and makes it happen.
We first contacted Amanda for information about a rental home. Within a few hours, it seemed she had already done her research and, because we were out of town, provided us a video walk-through of the house. In today’s market, speed is critical. We were amazed by how quickly she was able to get into houses we were interested in viewing. She seemed to have great rapport with the other agents, so we were always informed about what was going on with our application and the possibility of competing offers. Finding a new home can be very stressful but Amanda made the entire process a positive experience for our family. If we ever need any real-estate assistance in the future, Amanda will be the only person we call.

Working with Amanda was so reassuring. The process of selling a home can be stressful but everything went smoothly with Amanda providing expert guidance. Additionally, she was knowledgeable, professional and understanding of our particular needs in finding a new home. Amanda is a dedicated real estate professional and I would highly recommend her!

Wow! Amanda was great! Let me detail. At the first listing appointment, Amanda came prepared. She'd done her homework - knew when the house was built, particulars about it, pretty much anything you could have known about the place before actually walking in to it. Some people might say "Well, isn't that a basic expectation?" Well, it should be. Unfortunately other Realtors who I'd had listing appointments with didn't come as prepared. Amanda was also up front and honest about the home's value, and gave very good suggestions about what improvements I might want to do with it before putting it on the market and how those would potentially impact market value. Again, sounds like a basic expectation, right? It was in my book. Compared to other Realtors, Amanda was able to provide greater insight with greater confidence. That resulted in more comfort with my decision to list my home with her. Now, on to the listing... I wasn't exactly what you'd call an "easy client". I signed the listing agreement with Amanda some months (well, many to be precise) before the house actually hit the market. There were numerous delays to putting on market due to changes I made and work taking longer than expected to complete. Amanda was patient through all of them, and while I'm sure she was thinking "Oh, not again" after every change, she was very professional and supportive and understanding over the phone.
As you might imagine, there were a number of things that needed to be completed with the place before selling it. Amanda was an excellent resource to get help with that - she knew some great people who provided excellent services, from constructing a stacked stone fireplace and putting in a bathroom to a cleaning service to stagers. Oh, and by the way, Amanda included the staging service as part of her listing agreement, along with professional photos. Not every Realtor does things this way. All of this - her knowledge and list of contacts to get stuff done, and the extras - really added a lot of value to the service she offered. In terms of the rest of the transaction... Amanda hosted an open house 2 days after putting my home on the market. That evening she presented an offer that was over asking price, which I gladly accepted. I was impressed with this, especially since the asking price we used was considerably higher than what she had originally estimated at the listing appointment. The final bit of getting to closing wasn't quite as smooth as we'd hoped - namely because of some questionable tactics that the buyer's agent tried to use - but Amanda handled that gracefully as well. Ultimately everything turned out the way it needed to, which is something that I'm not sure would have been as smooth had it not been for Amanda's professionalism and dedication.
Overall, I'd say that Amanda is a superstar and wouldn't hesitate one bit to both recommend her to others and also use her as a Realtor again. She and her team made the experience a very pleasant one.

Buyer - 5780 First Landing Way
We worked with Amanda for the simultaneous sale of our previous home and purchase of our new home. She and her team were very knowledgeable and helpful in getting our home ready to list and due to their advice and our work in preparing our home to list, we had a full price offer within one day of listing during a global pandemic.
In addition, the terms of the buyer’s offer met our timeline and requirements for the new home so the home transactions flowed effortlessly. She was extremely responsive, proactive and answered our calls, texts and emails throughout the home buying and selling process. Furthermore, the recommendations she provided for the mortgage broker and other contractors for the home improvement projects were very valuable since we were able to complete the needed projects in a very short time frame.
I would highly recommend working with Amanda for your real estate needs. Her professionalism, responsiveness and communication style made the home selling and buying experience much less daunting. We really appreciate everything that she did for us!

I had an amazing time working with Amanda Ingram during my house buying process! She was very responsive to all the questions I had as a first time home buyer. She was very good at understanding my style, and requirements for what I was looking for. Was always willing to reach out to the seller agent for any questions or concerns I had, and would try to negotiate for either a lower price or to have something fixed. Buying my first house was definitely less stressful because of her.
