"Patrick was amazing! He made the entire home-buying process easy and stress-free. He was incredibly responsive and always accommodating with home viewing times. Patrick was knowledgeable about the surrounding areas, provided important details about each property, and was honest and transparent when answering our questions—which really helped us decide which home was the right fit for us. Everything went so smoothly from start to finish! I would definitely reach out to Patrick and Joan if you want to find the perfect home for you. Thank you both for your outstanding service!"

"We had the most incredible experience working with Joan and The Shannon Group. They were always so incredibly helpful, friendly and happy to assist in anything we needed. As a first time homebuyer I could not have had a better experience!"

"Joan was spot-on in her recommendations for preparing our home for the current market. She was able to intuit what buyers wanted and proceeded to get our home ready to meet that expectation. Even during a pandemic, Joan guided us through the entire transaction with outstanding results."

"Joan and Patrick were fantastic in helping us sell our Belleview condo while we were out of state. They also walked us through the selling process and assured us that they could handle everything with us out of the area. They kept in close communication throughout the process. Just three days after listing, we accepted an offer above asking. We couldn't have asked for better agents. They made our first-time home selling experience so seamless! Highly recommend Joan and Patrick to anyone looking to sell their property!"
James Woodworth
"Joan & Patrick Shannon were the perfect team to work with in selling our Belle View condominium! They are so knowledgeable about the area and the market and made great suggestions about how to prepare our condo for sale. In addition, they were always available to answer questions or handle any “bumps” through the process. If you are looking for the perfect team to work with in Alexandria, contact The Shannon Group…you will love working with them!"
Anne Kelly
"Joan and Patrick sold our house in one week at a great price! They are experts in the neighborhoods from Old Town Alexandria to Mount Vernon and beyond. Their staging help and listing advice were perfect. They were easy to work with and answered all of our questions. Joan and Patrick went above and beyond to make the process as smooth as possible. We highly recommend!"
Anne Fischer
"Joan and Patrick were amazing. From the very beginning they provided excellent advice and suggestions on how best to prepare and sell our home. We were thrilled when their advice worked - sold in 5 days over asking price. We couldn't be happier!"
Gail Bradley
"Joan, you refreshed the marketing, were a tireless networker with agents who work the Mt. Vernon market, increased the traffic to the house, and most importantly, got our home sold just two months after you stepped in. You helped us get a price that we were not at all certain we could get. As a principal in the firm, it is always my objective to have our agents exceed our client’s expectations and to provide an exceptional experience. You more than exceeded our expectations Joan, and please accept our heartfelt thanks for a job well done!"
Margaret-Mary & David
"We called Joan to help us sell our Old Town condo and find a new home in the neighborhood with enough space for our family. Right from the start, Joan was more than an agent — she was a partner and advocate. She helped us find and navigate financing, worked with our lender and settlement company, and fought and negotiated hard for our interests. Joan was always just a call or text message away, available day and night to answer our questions and strategize about everything from sale price to staging. She treated our home purchase as if it were her own."
Dan & Jen
"Joan Shannon is an outstanding real estate agent that has a unique ability to problem solve, adjust and resolve and has an extensive knowledge of the Northern Virginia market and is up to date with the varied and fluctuating market trends. She guided us through every step, from listing, to sell, to settlement. Joan's professionalism was remarkable and her support team of interior design and photographer were outstanding. Between her network, her people skills, the beautiful professional brochures (that were inserted in various Northern Virginia mediums) and Joan's negotiations skills, we managed to sell our house at the price we wanted and in the time frame we wanted, without any hesitation or reservation Joan Shannon has surpassed previous agents we have used."
Andrea
"Amazing experience despite a really challenging market. Joan and Patrick were the best agents we’ve worked with. We love to travel but coming back to the home they found for us is still our favorite part of a trip."
Pamela Callahan
"We selected Joan Shannon to help us in the sale of our condo in Belle View and we are so glad that we did! Joan knows Belle View, she knew exactly what we needed to do to put it on the market and who to hire to get it done. She staged the unit, priced it perfectly, and it sold in one day. We highly recommend Joan!"
Home Seller
"Joan did a fantastic job and knows the Old Town Alexandria, VA housing market very well! She guided us through a “changing” & “unpredictable” housing market and we sold our house within our desired timeframe and price. I highly recommend her to anyone, especially active duty members & veterans. In sum- if you buy or sell in Old Town, you need Joan!"
Will A.
"Absolutely fantastic service! I worked mostly with Patrick for my house hunting, so I'll speak mostly to his service. However, Joan was always open to talk and gave great advice as well. Patrick was very professional and knowledgeable. He walked me through every step of the process from finding a house to scheduling inspections, giving thoughtful insight along the way. As I had to close remotely, he even offered to let in workers to set up utilities, which was a huge help in making my move go smoothly. Overall, it was a positive and stress-free experience."
