Working with Richie was so easy and painless! My property sold in 4 days! Richie was easy to reach and really went out of his way to make this a smooth process. I had already relocated to another state which could have made things really tough to get done quickly but Richie even helped with home inspection issues. He communicated often to keep me in the loop and when document corrections needed to be made, Richie emailed me and I was able to sign right on my cell. This really sped things up. Simple corrections that could have cost a day here or there, especially with me living hundreds of mile away, were expedited by Richie and his team. I have already passed his information on to a couple of family members. What he does isn't easy and I was very lucky to find someone with his knowledge, skill, and professionalism. Great job Richie! Couldn't be happier!

Mr. Hanna was wonderful to work with, very patient and respectful through our entire experience of searching for the perfect rental. We had a long list of specifications and he assisted us while we looked in many areas of Northern VA/DC. He was knowledgeable of not only price trends and various area statistics, but also of building materials and had obviously done his homework on each property in advance. If we had questions that he didn't know the answer to, he did the research and immediately contacted us with the information. I highly recommend Mr. Richie Hanna for your rental/sales/buying needs.

Cindy and Mark

Our experience with Larry was fabulous. No question went unanswered. He was available to us anytime we needed or wanted to chat. He sold our house in record time (48 hours) and for more than we expected! He also helped us find the retirement home of our dreams and held our hands through the process of selling and buying at the same time. Larry and Laura are hands down the best folks we've worked with in a long time.

Jim and Susan

Service was very professional, they sold are home in 2 days and got us more than the asking price. They also helped with every detail of our new home purchase. You can't ask for any better agents.

Bill

Larry Bien helped me sell my home in Vienna. He advised me on the local market and helped me develop a successful pricing strategy. Within two days after listing the house, I received two qualified bids at the asking price and accepted one of them.

Kathleen

I was in a condo and needed to make improvements before I put the place up for sale. Larry gave me some recommended contractors, and they all performed very well. To top it off, I was moving to Paris the day after the final improvements were done. Larry carried the ball for me here, while I was in Paris, and we sold the place within a few weeks. Larry Bien is outstanding!

Billy

Larry sold my aunt's house. He was right along beside us every step of the way. If we ever need to sell another house in his district we will definitely be calling on him.

— Billy, Seller

Tim

Larry Bien is a highly motivated and expert in selling your property. We used him as our realtor and he aggressively had a strategy to get our property sold quickly. Additionally, he always responded to any questions we had, even when he was on vacation. We totally recommend him and his team.

Jessica & John

Larry was extremely responsive and expertly led us through a quick home selling process. We initially met Larry on a Saturday, our home hit the MLS the following Tuesday and we had a signed offer by Saturday. Larry was available round the clock to answer questions and offer advice. We ended up selling our home for over asking with multiple offers. Larry was instrumental in getting all the items on the inspection list taken care of in a very timely matter. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and can't recommend Larry more highly.

Marianna

Larry and his wife, Laura, helped make the home buying process less frustrating. They took take of scheduling, got all of the right legal and financial parties lined up, answered endless questions, and were always on time. I highly recommend their services.

Clark & Kate

Worked with Larry after interviewing and evaluating over 30 realtors in early 2015. We chose Larry to manage our sale of a large (5,850 sq. ft.) home in Centreville / Fairfax County, Virginia. Larry was articulate and responsive from start to finish and we accepted an offer in 30 days. The process was clear and went to plan. Larry extended a great deal of time to support our questions and needs while remaining both pleasant and professional.

Alan

Larry first and foremost, is a terrific person and this helps make him a terrific realtor. He kept our sale on an even keel and went over and above the norms to make sure that our transaction went to closing. He and Laura are just the best to deal with and I highly, highly recommend them.

— Alan, Seller

Susan & Carl

Larry did a wonderful job getting a contract only a week after listing our house. He is especially responsive; my emails were answered immediately. Larry and his wife Laura were very professional and made us feel calm despite some setbacks. As of one hour ago the house closed. It is a relief and I'm not sure the process would have gone as well with another agent.

Paul

After meeting with several realtor's we decided to use Larry Bien to list our parents house. Larry was always responsive if we had questions and very insightful in what work we should do to get the best return on the sale. If i asked Larry to stop by the empty house and meet with contractors, he was always happy to do so. Larry would randomly go by the house to check on it and report back to us. The house sold just days after going on the market. I would not hesitate to use Larry as my realtor again.

Emily

I could not begin to tell you how awesome Larry is. My wife and I had the pleasure of meeting Larry and his wife (Laura) while asking about a home that had already been sold - as a first-time home buyer myself, Larry was quick to welcome my wife and I into the world of real estate. Within days, he had followed up and connected with us multiple times to introduce us to the overall process as well as provide us with bountiful resources to begin our loan application. I say this with absolutely no exaggeration: Larry is the first real-estate professional to truly LISTEN to our desires and needs and provide us with homes and listings with exactly what we wanted. He came with us to multiple viewings without tiring, conducted vast amounts of research to provide us with as much information as possible, and was incredibly patient with us while explaining each and every detail from scratch (the man knows the business very well!!). Within one to two weeks, Larry showed us our dream home - with crafty maneuvering on a highly demanded listing, he had our contract in front of the sellers and accepted within 2 days. With an aggressive closing date, Larry and his wife were always available to us whether by phone or email. They met with us on multiple occasions to carefully walk us through and explain all the necessary paperwork. Here we are, just a few weeks later, in our dream home. I could not thank Larry and Laura enough for all their support, their kindness, and their patience with us. They made this entire process seamless, enjoyable, and easy. I'm happy to say that we were fortunate enough to meet this dynamic duo.

Jerry & Pam

I have sold 4 homes, and Laura and Larry where by far the best listing agents I have ever had. They suggested a pricing strategy that I was nor comfortable with, but I agreed to follow. Based on the results, 5 offers in 3 days, and a final price $17,000 ABOVE the listing price- they were right.

Sharon & Ted

We were extremely pleased with Mr. Bien's wealth of knowledge in preparing our home for sale, i.e. how to best show and price our home for a wide audience of buyers. I was most impressed with his communication skills. He contacted us for every detail which meant so much to me because I was informed of all the steps that were taken to have a successful showing and eventual sale. We received an offer on our home in five days and I credit most of that success to Mr. Bien. I would work again with him in the future. Overall, Mr. Bien had a calm and realistic approach which helped make the process smoother and less stressful to us.

Griselda

Larry was very responsive and helpful the whole time. As first time home buyers we were fortunate to have Larry as a realtor because of his knowledge, network and experience. It was even more convenient to work with the mortgage company located in the same office. The seller was also the realtor who at closing also gave Larry great reviews.

— Griselda, Buyer

Kate and Mark

After meeting with several realtors, we chose Larry Bien to help us sell our home and purchase a new one. He was extremely responsive (responded to email while out of the country on vacation), knowledgeable, and prompt. Our goal was to move within our same neighborhood and he enabled us to do just that! Both he and his wife Laura were caring and made helpful suggestions throughout the entire process. The stager and photographer that they used were amazing. As a result of Larry’s recommendations, we received a contract on our house within 6 hours of being on the market. Larry also has great relationships with area professionals which came in handy for home improvement, carpet installation and moving. We would definitely use the Bien Team again!

— Kate and Mark, Seller and Buyer

John

Larry was proactive, kept me well informed and his recommendations were spot on. Though I was traveling quite a bit, he kept me informed through email and telephone calls. When it was time for closing, he again insured that Marcia and I came prepared with the documents that would be required.

Richie helped us buy our first home and I cannot say enough positive things about my experience working with him. First, he is extremely accessible. He answered my numerous calls on the first or second ring – every time. He also made himself available around our schedule which, with an infant son, often meant meetings/calls after my son’s bedtime or accommodating his nap and feeding schedules while touring homes. Second, he is extremely knowledgeable. We were first time homebuyers so I had a TON of questions. Richie fielded them all and, when I would apologize for asking so many, he quickly assured me not to worry about it, he was happy to help. Third, Richie is thorough. Yes, he addressed all of my questions but he also went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable throughout the entire process – again, as a first time homebuyer this meant a lot to me. Even post-sale we have continued to benefit from Richie’s thoroughness as he has reached out multiple times to make sure our move went okay and that everything was going well in our new home. Fourth, Richie is hardworking. From the beginning to end, Richie was motivated and worked hard for us. Initially, we had a pretty wide search area which meant a lot of driving from house to house but Richie would map out the whole day and spend hours of his weekend with us looking at homes. Then, when it came time for the home inspection, Richie was present the entire time – running all over the house asking our inspector lots of questions and ensuring a thorough job. I was surprised how much he knew about HVAC, plumbing, etc and suspect he now knows more about our house than we do! And finally, Richie is fun. This wasn’t a quality that I thought I wanted in my realtor but after spending multiple weekends together and then talking frequently during the close process, it proved to be an important one and Richie was a pleasure to work with. Richie is a really great realtor and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home.

Larry and Laura Bien had sold my house in one day. He had priced the house right so that it will sell fast so I could move on to be closer to my family in Pennsylvania. They are very responsive to my questions and request. I had a great experience and would recommend them. They did their best for my best interest.

— Victoria, Seller

Kaye & Nathan

I would highly recommend Larry Bien to anyone wishing to buy or sell a home. Our experience with him was a very positive one. In addition to the regular realtor responsibilities, he put us in contact with people who conducted an Estate Sale for us, reasonably priced and professional movers as well as a contractor who did work on the new home. We also used Larry as the realtor for the purchase of our new home. With features like eSign for documents and mobile apps that kept us aware of showings, the experience was very smooth.

— Kaye & Nathan, Seller and Buyer

Tara & Jeremy

The Bien Team was very professional yet very friendly. It was great working with them. They kept the process moving without being pushy and we were very pleased with their quick response when we had questions or concerns. Through stressful situations (that had nothing to do with their tasks) they still listened and offered any advise or assistance they could provide. I would recommend Larry to anyone who needs a friend and a hardworking realtor in one.
