Darlene and Aileen, I've heard of "2-fers" before, but never like this. What a pleasure it was to hire one sister and get the other also. You are a wonderful team and my sisters and I are so happy with the job you did in selling our Dad's house in less than one week! AND in this market!!! The smartest thing we did in preparing Dad's home for sale was paying attention to what you told us and following your instructions. We will recommend either/both of you with no hesitation.

We just recently sold our father's home as he is in assisted living. This was a very difficult and emotional task for us. Darlene Young with Lighthouse Realty was one of several realtors we interviewed. We felt comfortable with her and her sister, Aileen, from the moment we met. They did a thorough market analysis of the home. Realizing that the real estate market was down, we were still shocked at the low selling prices. While this home was nice, it did need some updating. Darlene knew we were looking to get more for the house than what the market was bearing and suggested a few updates. With her advice, we decided to make the recommended changes. About thirty days after listing the prperty, Darlene called to say we have a contract and it's a good one. The house sold for much more than initally expected. The advice and updates paid off, and my father came out much better than if we had sold "as is." Lighthouse Realty is well known in the community, and after using them we can understand why. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Very seldom do you find someone who is genuinely honest and has your best interest at heart. Thank you Darlene and Aileen, it was a wonderful experience working with you and we will plan to use you again when the need arises. Laura and Gilbert Taylor
This was my first experience with an agent selling my home. Aileen was wonderful and always a step ahead. Her follow up with my buyer's agent and mortgage broker made me feel at ease and comfortable with the whole selling process. All issues were dealt with promptly and she always offered the best options and advice. Aileen was always professional, very thorough, and courteous. She is more than an agent, she is a friend for life.

I recently purchased a home and had the pleasure of dealing with Aileen Mahoney from Lighthouse Realty. My initial bid/offer for the home was rejected multiple times. Aileen convinced me to keep submitting the bid and she was continuously in contact with the listing agent. Perseverance paid off and we closed on the house last month. Aileen was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and professional throughout the process and I would recommend her to anyone that is buying or selling a home.

Aileen was a pleasure to work with to buy our present home and to sell our last home. She always had a quick response to questions we had including educating us about short sales, foreclosures, and staging our house. She made sure that every step of closing was processed timely and professionally. We have recommended Aileen to friends wanting to buy homes.

Aileen helped us to explore the market and see what we really needed and wanted. She was very impressive in many areas, and especially with negotiations!

We moved here from out of state. Aileen did a fantastic job lining up contractors, home inspectors, termite inspection and helping us find financing. Due to being out of state, Aileen met the contractor, inspectors at the property and kept us up to date on the progress. She arranged for us to have early entry saving us time and money. She knows all the ins and outs that were foreign to us coming into the state. She supplied us with all the utility companies and contact numbers. To this day, two years later, we are still calling her with inquires on vendors to use, market conditions, etc. We couldn't have asked for a more professional and caring person.

Aileen and her team did an excellent job selling my house at a time when the market has been terrible for sellers, and she managed to keep all our spirits up. She found a steady stream of prospects for me, and she really went to bat for me in dealing with the person that eventually ended up buying my home. When I had a good contract in the works, she helped me find a very nice house close to my job, and also meeting quite a few admittedly picky demands of my own, for what my new home should be like. She saved me additional moving expenses by arranging for the sale of my old home to be on the same day as the purchase of my new one, so I could move directly in. Also, she kept in touch with me after I moved in to be sure everything was going well for me. If you are looking for a dedicated, down to earth realtor that will really keep your best interests at heart, and that isn't afraid to tell you what you need to hear, instead of just what you want to hear, you can't do better than Aileen Mahoney, and her sister and brother, at Lighthouse Realty in Mechanicsville, Virginia.

Once again it has been our pleasure to have you represent us for the sale of our house. In this very uncertain market, your attention to detail, helpful recommendations, responsiveness to our questions and knowledge of the local market boosted our confidence throughout the sale process. We are as sure of your ethics as well as your skill and are so thankful that you represented us during the final negotiations. We are quite pleased that the house sold at a truly fair market value. You have formed a great team. Thanks for all your hard work.
Deny & David Clark
The end of this month marks our first year in our new home. I wanted to personally tell all of you how Cabell and I are enjoying the house. A day doesn’t go by without Cabell saying “can you believe this is our house” or “I love this house.” I’m with him 100%. We appreciate your hard work for selling both of our homes in Lakeside and purchasing the new home. Anytime we have friends that are either buying or selling – we recommend Lighthouse Realty.
Peggy Love
We would like to take this opportunity to thank each of you for your fine representation in our home selling and purchasing processes. Having gone through it before, we can certainly attest to your professionalism and your successful method for preparing a house for showing. Thanks for all the tips and suggestions because we believe it made the difference in successfully selling our house.
We wish your company God's continued blessings and prosperity.
Donald and Glenice Chambers
I want to take this opportunity to personally thank you for all your help and assistance with the sale of our home in Cool Spring Forest. More often than not, the selling of a house can be a very stressful experience. Lighthouse Realty has changed my mind forever.
We first met you four years ago, during our search for a new residence in Virginia. Your knowledge, assistance and help during our purchase (you represented the Developer) was the reason we again sought out your help in selling our home, when we were being relocated again. We have bought and sold over nine homes and this was by far nothing like the other sales.
You were there with us every step of the way. You followed up on every detail. You literally lit up the path and were available for all our good, simple and dumb questions - even after business hours.
We wish you great success, but are sure the word will spread to both buyers and sellers, that you are one of the best in the area.
Sheila and Bernie Sacks
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your effort in the selling and purchase of our lovely new home. If it had not been for your effort and tenacious pursuit in a tenuous situation, we would not be enjoying our new home.
It has been refreshing to work with a team of professionals with impeccable character. It has been our honor to recommend your team to our friends and family.
We truly appreciate your assistance in helping us realize our dreams.
Mark & Rhonda Catlin
My husband and I have been in our new house for about 5 months now and we love it. I can't thank you enough for all of your help. We were skeptical about moving and your patience and professionalism made all the difference. I am now convinced that we made the right decision, but we did not feel pressured in any way. You truly cared that we found just the right place. That is a rarity in the realty business. I tell all of my friends and colleagues about you.
Please know that your help was truly appreciated. Your experience, patience, and professionalism are what got us the perfect house, and we felt that we truly had a "power team" on our side. I personally have worked in customer service for the past 12 years and I can sincerely say that you are amongst the best!
Jennifer and Daniel Taylor
We want to thank you all for making our selling/purchase experience smooth and pleasant. We appreciate the fact that you were always there when we needed you with a smile and a ready answer for any question. Thank you for returning every call in a timely fashion and going the extra mile to serve us in our transition.
We have bought and sold homes seven times in our forty-seven year marriage and can truthfully say we have never had a more pleasant worry-free experience. We wish you much success in the future and we will recommend you to everyone who mentions they are looking for a new home.
Thank you also for the generous house-warming gift. We will remember you all with fondness.
Carolyn and Gordon Maddox
We just wanted to thank you for all the help you gave us in finding our new house. Even though we didn’t completely understand what we wanted ourselves, you were able to! Everyone in your office was very patient and helpful. We still can’t believe how quickly you found our dream home!
Thanks again for everything and don’t worry, if we ever decide to relocate in the future, you’ll be the first one we call!
Mark & Veronica Turner
