Wes is an outstanding Realtor who truly goes above and beyond for his clients. He helped me sell my property at Park Ave in Richmond, VA in 2023, and it was a complex transaction with significant HOA challenges and building management challenges. What made Wes truly exceptional was his ability to manage this while I was living overseas in a timezone 12 hours ahead. Despite the distance, Wes remained incredibly professional and communicative, ensuring I was always in the loop regardless of the hour. He took the lead on coordinating difficult repairs and stayed persistent with the building management until we finally crossed the finish line. If you want an agent who is knowledgeable, reliable, willing to tackle the 'tough' sales and the extra mile, even across the globe, I cannot recommend Wes highly enough!
Attentive, reliable, caring, resourceful, knowledgeable - Wes is the complete package when it comes to real estate and, without question, sets the gold standard any agent should be compared to. No matter where you are in the home buying/selling process, Wes will have a strategy that meets your goals and needs. He will thoroughly explain the best path forward with clear reasoning and relevant, real examples from previous experiences. If you follow his guidance, as his client, you will always feel safe and assured that your next move is the absolute best move. My wife and I cannot recommend him enough. Do yourself a favor and utilize Wes for your next real estate venture. You could not be in better hands.
Wes took amazing care of us! From our first meeting he took time to get to know us and our specific needs for our home purchase. Wes is super knowledgeable about the area and he and his team are also very communicative and ensured everything from putting together an offer through to closing went as seamless as possible. We love Wes!
Wes was a consummate professional. He provided expert advice on pricing, marketing, staging, negotiating, and all other aspects of home selling. He obtained an excellent result, and I'm very glad that I trusted his wise counsel. He earned my highest recommendation.
Working with Wes Fertig was an incredible experience from start to finish. We hadn't bought or sold a house in over 20 years, and Wes guided us through the entire process with patience, care, and expert advice. Wes is an amazing listener, a skilled negotiator, and a trusted advisor. He helped us buy our new home and sell our old one quickly and seamlessly. Wes provided excellent advice on updates and improvements to make our home market-ready, as well as expert guidance on staging and photography to make our listing stand out. His attention to detail truly made a difference. Wes's strong relationships with lenders, legal teams, and closing professionals made the entire process smooth and efficient. He also offered fantastic recommendations for movers and contractors, which made our transition even easier. If you're looking for a realtor who is not only knowledgeable but also deeply committed to helping you succeed, Wes is the person you want by your side. We are so grateful for his support and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
We had a wonderful experience working with Wes Fertig as our realtor! He was incredibly responsive to our messages, flexible with scheduling--even for appointments in Charlottesville--and always made us feel like a priority, even though we weren't shopping at the top of the market. He also connected us with some excellent vendors, which made the whole process smoother. We're so happy with the representation we received and will absolutely be recommending Wes to our friends, family, and anyone else looking for a great realtor!
Wes helped my senior father sell his home. He treated my dad with such respect and compassion, and kept my sibling and I in the loop with all necessary details. We were out of town so he managed all on site home improvements and contractors for us as well as many other details. His contacts for movers and contractors were impeccable. He helped to sell the house for the price we needed with a perfect contract and closing was smooth. He was always responsive, warm, and friendly to everyone involved. Our whole family loved working with Wes. We would highly recommend him to anyone needing a realtor.
I recently purchased my first home with Wes representing me as my realtor. He came very highly recommended from a close friend of mine who used him several years ago to purchase his first home with his wife. My home search took nearly two years with multiple offers, and Wes not only stuck with me the entire time, but he showed a level of professionalism and patience that is rarely (if ever) seen these days. He answered all of my questions, remained fully engaged for the entirety of my search, was very responsive to my calls, texts, and emails, and fought for me throughout the entire process. I have, and will continue to recommend Wes to any and all of my contacts that are in the buying or selling stages of their home journies, as he was without a doubt the reason that things went as smoothly and successfully as they did for my home purchase. If you're looking for the best of the best, Wes is the one you want!
This is how I found Wes: Last Spring, I asked a friend who is really good at internet research to do a search for the best realtors in the Glen Allen/Short Pump, VA area. He found me three names, and had a star by Wes's name saying, "call him first." I was looking for a realtor that could not only sell my mom's house, but also understand our particular situation. Just in case, I did my own research on those top three names and agreed that I should call Wes first. The research paid off because when I called Wes, I could tell right away that he could work well with my personality and have the patience and understanding that my real estate situation required. And now my story: I was helping my mom sell her home in Glen Allen, VA when both she and I now live in Maryland. That meant that I had to drive us through I-95 traffic several times back-and-forth from Baltimore, Maryland to the house over the summer to pull this off. Wes was able to accommodate all of our travel plans and meet us there whenever we needed. He also volunteered to be there at the house when we couldn't meet a vendor or to check on anything. It was a huge relief knowing he was there when I couldn't be. We also had a lot of problems with the house and needed to sell it "as is." He carefully helped us coordinate the fixing up of what we absolutely needed to and helped us to understand what we did not have to deal with. We also needed a lot of different types of help to make this happen, especially because I was predominantly managing this remotely from Maryland. Wes recommended some great companies that made a huge difference in our pulling this out-of-state move off such as Caring Transitions and Next Chapter Solutions (two companies that specialize in senior moves). In fact, he maintains a "concierge list" of contractors/resources to recommend if needed. Everyone he recommended was extremely helpful and professional. I've found that only the "best of the best" work with Wes. I even retained an accountant that he recommended to do my mom's 2024 taxes, which will, of course, include the house sale. The accountant has already helped us plan how much taxes to set aside from the house proceeds. I'll close with this one last especially important thing that helped me work well with Wes: Wes did not pass me off to other realtors at his firm. He remained my primary realtor/point of contact the entire time. This was particularly important to me because I didn't have time for a lot of cooks in the kitchen, so to speak. I needed to be sure that I could always get to Wes directly, and I always did. Hire Wes, you won't regret it!
I don't even know where to begin this review, because Wes has been absolutely phenomenal throughout the process of us selling our home! The first meeting in person went well past the allotted time and at no point did Wes seemed rushed to finish the meeting. He answered every question we had and took extra time to explain the selling process to us so that we felt completely comfortable with everything. His approach to his work is very systematic and he has a proven plan that is flawless. His team of vendors are fantastic, professional and trustworthy. Wes has such a tremendous passion about his work and makes you feel that you are his only client at that time. I would 100% recommend him for anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. Wes is incredible!!!!
