Tired of “good enough” products and services? I am! Looking for the best realtor who “does more” — and makes you feel like your needs are first priority? I was! Luckily, I found Piper Yerks and her team. She was very knowledgeable of the area, and her honestly made the home-buying process less stressful.
Great environment, professional and nice people, clean and beautiful office set-up. They care about their clients and train their agents frequently, so they are always updated with what’s going on in the market. I recommend the Yerks team to anyone looking to do any Real Estate transaction.
Piper is the best! She was thorough and professional and great to work with. She kept us apprised about available appointments and always let us know as soon as a new one came on the market. She was honest and forthright :— no games. After dealing with several other brokers in the McLean area and being disappointed, we felt lucky to find Piper and her team.
We had an excellent experience working with the Yerks team finding our rental in McLean. These guys definitely have a passion for what they do, and you can tell that they love their job and the services they provide. Definitely recommend.
Piper and The Yerks Team have been my realtors for nearly half a decade, and during that time they have expertly guided me through transactions with the best balance of ease and sharpness I have ever experienced. There is never any stress or pressure regarding the sale, and yet, the sale is always taken seriously, with every important detail considered.
Piper and The Yerks Team are always professional and are also enjoyable company and a pleasure to be around, which makes the sometimes not pleasant experience of selling your home much more sustainable.
I absolutely recommend Piper and The Yerks Team for all of your real estate needs.
Piper and Karina helped our family buy a great home that was right for us, and they also made selling our prior home very easy. We had a lot of fun and laughs along the way. Piper and her team are very knowledgeable and were always organized and on point.
