My wife and I were looking for the "Gem" foreclosure. Justin Toney worked with us for over 5 months while we searched for our perfect home.

His housing rating system helped my wife and I discover what it was we actually wanted, and made the decision to offer on a home easy.

He was available at a moments notice, and ALWAYS willing to "go the extra mile". Even if it meant being available on holidays. weekends, late evenings, and early mornings.

I have purchased 3 homes prior to this adventure, so i am not new to the experience. But Justin made this process far easier than any agent i have worked with prior.

Because of Justin's attention to serving his customers, making himself available, and never letting you feel "out of the loop", i promise, i will be using Justin for all future home purchases in the Richmond, VA tri-cities area!!!

Thank you, Justin, for a fantastic buying experience! Justin Toney made my experience fantastic despite writing 5 different contracts and inspecting two differnet homes. We found the best house for my budget and I am in love with my house/neighborhood. Justin is more than willing to view a home at any hour of the day, any day of the week. Justin is friendly, honest and wants to help you find the best house for whatever your budget may be. He is from the area so he is well-connected and knows the area very well. I had never met Justin previous to the process to buy a house but I would recommend him highly to anyone and I am happy to call him my friend as well!

Justin, I appreciate your patience- for someone who is a thinker like me, it was good that I did not get pushed to make emotional decisions. I did not feel uncomfortable sharing my opinions with you and talking about issues around what I wanted in a home helped narrow down my requirements on what was important. I also liked that you took the initiative if you hadn’t heard from me in a while because you knew I was getting tired.  Thanks for helping us find our home.

When I first starting working with Justin I was not sure whether I was going to rent or purchase a property.  We looked at a few rentals and then I decided I wanted to go ahead and purchase.  I appreciated the fact that Justin never tried to pressure me into buying but rather it was a decision that I made based on the fact that the available rentals were not appealing to me.

Although I was leaning towards moving into the James River high school district I wanted to keep my options open.  To make things easier Justin created four separate property searches for me, one for each school district I was considering.  I found this to be very helpful. 

I really appreciated Justin's no pressure guidance throughout the process of my home purchase.  He asked checking questions of each property we looked at.  These questions helped me determine what was most important.  This may sound like a logical process, but I have bought many houses in the past and never really had a realtor truly try to determine what I liked.  The question and answer process enabled Justin to point out both positive and negatives things about other properties we would look at.  Actually he became more critical of features in some homes then myself.  He wanted to make sure that I was getting the best house on the market that met my criteria.  In less then two weeks we had viewed the properties that were of interest to me and wrote an offer which was accepted on a property which I felt best suited my needs.

When the appraisal came back lower then the contract price and I got a little worried but Justin reassured me that my contract was ok.  During the counter process to the low appraisal, I actually became worried I might lose the home and Justin pointed out that we where in the driver's seat and worst case the contract would default to the pre-counter price.  I was impressed with how well Justin handled this part of the transaction....I walked away from that saying to myself, "Justin is actually a steady and tough negotiator under pressure" 

I know from first hand experience that Justin is someone who will look after and act in your best interests. For that reason alone I recommend him to others as the agent they should use.

Justin Toney was an excellent realtor.  During the house-hunting phase, he was very thorough in his preparations and was very knowledgeable when touring homes.  I ended up selecting a great house, but one with a seller who turned out to be unusually difficult.  Justin was very patient, and spent hours upon hours dealing with this seller and the negotiations over the house inspection and the credits for defects.  In the end, I got a good deal and ended up with a great house.
