"I'm grateful for the trust my clients place in me during one of life's biggest decisions. Here are some thoughts they've shared about working together on their real estate journey."

Eric Diello

Eric Diello has been our 'Realtor of Choice' for the last five years as we've engaged him on multiple occasions. He was step-by-step supportive as we made preparations to sell the only home we owned for 40 years. Eric’s years of experience clearly showed through his familiarity with our area and his ability to identify the improvements necessary to maximize our investment return. As a result, when he listed our home we received multiple offers above Asking Price within just 5 days. Selling a home can be stressful, however Eric made himself available at all hours for any question and helped us feel at ease during the process. Unlike other Agents we have seen, Eric's creative Marketing and perfect Staging skills were impressive. He was proficient during negotiations, and continued to coach us through the process -ensuring we closed on-time. We again called him to sell an 'out of the area' Investment Property. After multiple previous attempts by local ‘Top Agents’, Eric listed the Home and was able to obtain 6 offers in 16 days -gaining more profit than we anticipated!

Working with Eric was a great experience! He is friendly, knowledgeable about the Middleburg area and I never felt any pressure to purchase with him. I would recommend Eric if you’re looking for a realtor.

We went and looked at 6 houses one weekend and met 6 different realtors. Eric was the best of the agents by a country mile. We are so lucky to have met him and my wife and I both decided he was the agent for us. So incredibly helpful with all processes of the house hunt, offer/acceptance and every other process; never pushy, at all; smart; pleasant, and always goes the extra mile. One example (of many): a week AFTER we closed on the house our alarm went off. We were an hour away that weekend. He found out and said: next time just call me and I will go check it out. He had zero to gain. He is just a great agent and a fine human. Use him now, use him often. You will thank me later!

Eric Diello is a pleasure to work with! What I enjoyed most was his follow through and ability to allow me to see a clear path to making a purchase decision. He went above and beyond to make sure I had all the angles to consider. Highly recommend you work with Eric when you are looking to buy or sell.

We highly recommend Eric to anyone looking for a home! He provides superb, personal and unparalleled customer service. We were not the easiest clients as we changed our minds from buying land, to looking for an existing home and ultimately settled upon staying put. We even changed our area of interest drastically during the course of our exploration. He pivoted without hesitation and worked with us patiently and professionally from start to finish with zero pressure. His goal was to help guide us to our ultimate goal. He is truly the very best!

We could not recommend Eric enough as a real estate agent! Eric's patience (and good sense of humor!) with our millions of questions at all hours of the day was unwavering. He is very knowledgeable of the area and skilled with deploying strong strategies for negotiations in this challenging market. He generously drove all over the area as we did not have a clear idea what exactly we were shopping for. Eric demonstrated the kindest and calmest demeanor and guided us as we chose and bought the perfect house for us. He was always available to us and kept us thoroughly up-to-date each step of the way. Eric is well connected in the community and quick to offer a resource for any step of the process; any of his recommendations are well vetted by Eric and we had trust that those people would uphold the same level of integrity Eric showed us. We will certainly be reaching out to Eric with any future buying/selling projects! Thank you, Eric!

There are so many ways to write a recommendation for Eric; we could focus on his understanding of the real estate market and his willingness to share that patiently, his availability, his respect for his client’s time and privacy, his sense of humor, his helpfulness and so many other ways of how he works with clients. All of those were exceptional, but we think the aspect that we found most important was his integrity. In all aspects of our interactions with him while selling our home, we always knew that our best interests were at the center of his considerations and advice. This is the 4th time we’ve sold a home . . . and while we’ve always had very good realtors, Eric took it to a whole new level. He has our wholehearted recommendation for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Eric was very professional and working with him to sell our house was great. He knew the market dynamics in our area and provided excellent advice and guidance. He presented a wealth of market reports that assisted us in determining a reasonable price for selling our house. He assured us that we were right on point for our sale. His outreach through social media created numerous interested buyers. He listed our house on multiple sites and even sent out a flyer advertising our property. He was extremely accessible during the process and always provided frequent updates as to how things were progressing.. During the inspection phase, Eric was invaluable as to what we needed to do to get to closing. Eric is a very knowledgeable agent that cares for his clients.

Really enjoyed working closely with Eric on finding a weekend house in Virginia. He was knowledgable about the area, listened to and applied my wish list to his recommendations, was responsive to questions and requests and went above and beyond to show me the areas around prospective places. Highly recommend!

No surprise, Eric Diello gets 5 Stars! I've bought and sold quite a few homes and worked with some great Realtors before, but Eric is my new favorite. He is kind, considerate, and very professional. He works diligently for you and offers helpful resources along the way. He is thorough and so easy to work with--a true pleasure!

Being a novice at selling my home in Fauquier County, I found Eric to be truly knowledgable, professional, and, above all, patient. His respect for my schedule was truly appreciated. Eric seems so well-suited to supporting people with their real estate needs. His enthusiasm for what he does comes quite naturally to him which made him a pleasure to work with.

Simply put, Eric was instrumental in helping us purchase our dream vacation home. We began the search with him in 2020 and over the years our search evolved tremendously. He was incredibly patient and responsive throughout -- extremely knowledgable about the area. Ultimately, he led us to the most perfect property for our family, helped us negotiate a better price, and worked quickly allowing us a quick close. I truly felt like he went above and beyond working with us and dealing with my 24/7 communication in this competitive housing market. We loved getting to know Eric throughout this process and would work with him again in a heartbeat. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy (or sell!) in the Virginia area. You will be in great hands.

Eric was wonderful from start to finish! Friendly, professional, extremely knowledgeable about the market, especially in my area. He is incredibly responsive, and quickly! He also has a wealth of contacts for all kinds of homeowner needs- from carpeting to plumbing to movers. And I was very happy with all the companies he recommended. He always went the extra mile and would bring me back to earth when I'd get either over excited or discouraged. I hope I don't ever move again. but if I do, Eric is the first person I will call.

When buying our new home in northern Virginia, we switched from our real estate agency to Sotheby's because we wanted a more professional, capable home buying experience. That is exactly what we got with Eric Diello. He knows all of the areas in N. Virginia very well, and was completely willing to drive to all the areas that we wanted to see. Most were upwards of an hour away from him. He accommodated us very well in our particular situation, and helped us find the perfect home for us. Carrying the closing across the finish line was done very competently and smoothly. We're pleased with Sotheby's and with Eric. Would HIGHLY recommend!

Eric has been a real trooper through what seemed like a never ending process to both buy and sell! He was patient, kind, graceful and offering facts and information, providing us with clear professional input to allow us to navigate an otherwise challenging process to sell our home and buy our forever home as well. We can't recommend Eric enough!

Sydney G.

We were instantly impressed with Eric and his professionalism. He listed our home during a challenging period for home sales. He offered excellent advice during every step of the process. Eric has tremendous knowledge in marketing properties which was key to selling our home quickly and without issue. He also understands when and how to follow up with potential buyers which proved to be very helpful in the sale of our home. We would not hesitate to contact Eric again for future home purchases.

When my wife and I decided to sell our property in Hume, Virginia, there were challenges. We wanted buyers who would be good neighbors and who would continue to have an operating farm on the property, e.g., accepting ownership responsibilities for livestock. Friends in the community recommended Eric Diello to act as our agent. Eric became intimately familiar with all aspects of the property – house, barn, guest cottage, livestock operations, etc. He showed the property to a host of potential buyers using his own utility vehicle for transport around the entire property including pastures with livestock and large guard dogs. He identified ideal new owners, facilitated the transaction by introducing the potential buyers to financial institutions that met their needs, coordinating closing activities with a title company and listing and selling their property as precursors to buying our property. Eric was a relentless advocate for our sale and has remained engaged well after the sale closed introducing the new owners to members of the local community. Our transaction was challenging. Eric went above and beyond providing timely and expert assistance in every aspect of our transaction. He remains a trusted friend and colleague. We are delighted to give him our five-star recommendation.

Eric did an excellent job assisting us in our recent land purchase. We visited several properties, and he went out of his way to coordinate showings and stay on top of the quickly changing market. He provided sound/thoughtful guidance as we began to narrow our search, and did a great job negotiating at the end. Throughout the process, he was always available and highly professional.

Michael R.

Eric not only helped me sell my house but also got me my next house! His attention to detail along with his view of the big picture sold my house quickly and for over asking price. His knowledge of the market and negotiation won me the contract on my new home. I highly recommend Eric, he is a valuable resource when buying or selling your home.

Istana T.

VHH-logo_horse-only

Eric is great at his job. Even more important than the deep knowledge he brings for the Fauquier market, he is compassionate, reasonable, and willing to go above and beyond for his clients. It was a privilege to have his assistance and guidance from the very beginning stages of identifying what work my property needed to navigating through to a happy stress-free closing. Eric earned my highest recommendation!
