Katie and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with on this home sale. She is so professional, on top of any and all issues, and communicates quickly and with purpose and resolution. One of the best transactions I’ve had this year! Hope to do another deal with her in the near future.

Working with you, Katie, has been an absolute pleasure. Your professionalism, deep market knowledge, and unwavering commitment to your clients truly set you apart. You navigated every step with clarity, confidence, and genuine care, making the entire process feel seamless and supported. It’s rare to find someone who combines expertise with such authenticity and heart, and I’m grateful to have partnered with an agent as exceptional as you. Thank you for going above and beyond—you are truly outstanding at what you do.

From the very beginning of our search, Katie O’Hara was nothing short of amazing. Every time we viewed a listing, she offered thoughtful expertise, insight and honest judgment—it felt like we were on the same page from day one. If a place wasn’t right for us, she said so, which made us trust her even more. When a rental we’d signed for fell through, Katie was calm, patient, and resourceful—walking us through our options and finding us a new rental within 24 hours. She moved quickly while still making sure we felt supported and heard. Kind, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable, Katie feels like a trusted friend who just happens to be an expert in real estate. Her keen eye for details and genuine care made us completely comfortable throughout the process. We can’t say enough good things about her. If you want someone who will go above and beyond, who truly cares, and who will make finding your home both successful and enjoyable, Katie is the realtor for you. She’s simply the best!

I recently worked with Aligned to find a rental home and Katie O’hara was an absolute pleasure to work with. She made a hellish search process much easier by handling most of the communication with other/external realtors and using her expertise to help us navigate throughout our search. She was extremely communicative and responded quickly while patiently searching for/touring several homes with us. Most importantly, Katie consistently looked out for our best interests throughout the entirety of our search and ensured we chose a home that we were 100% satisfied with. Thanks to Katie, we were able to find a wonderful home!

Janet and her team are experts in their field: pricing specialists and marketing gurus, I 100% trust them with anything real-estate related!

I previously had a bad opinion of real estate agents (due to one agent in particular, who was a charlatan and a buffoon), but I've changed my mind due entirely to the efforts of Katie O'Hara. Admittedly, I had doubts when my housemate told me they were talking with her but Katie proved herself to be a kind person, a consummate professional, and deeply dedicated to finding us a home. She never left us feeling unheard and was constantly in communication with both us and other agents/property owners. She found listings, arranged tours, and even reviewed our eventual lease (informally, not as a legal expert) to make sure our rights as tenants weren't being flagrantly violated. If you are hesitant about working with a real estate agency, I understand completely, but as a fellow skeptic, give this one a chance.

After finding a property through Zillow that caught my eye, I contacted the listing agent, Jeanne Siracuse. Within 30 minutes she called me and was very friendly. Jeanne stated her colleague Katie O'Hara would reach out shortly. Again, within 30 minutes, Katie was calling to further discuss and schedule a tour. She was kind and accommodating. Once we hung up, she texted me several minutes later to confirm and said I could contact her at any point for help or questions. During the house tour, Katie was personable, sweet, and invested in our interests and hesitations. Throughout the entire process of touring, questions, corresponding with the Landlords, negotiating, updating lease info, and signing, Katie was our advocate. She would correspond promptly any time of day and on weekends too. Katie remained gracious and went above and beyond to help when there was a minor misunderstanding between us and the Landlords. I am keeping Katie's number for the future and will go to her for any of my realtor related needs. Thanks for everything Katie and Jeanne!!

We are new to the area and needed a reputable Realtor. A friend recommended Katie O’Hara from Aligned Real Estate Group. Katie was very knowledgeable, experienced, and understanding of our needs and concerns. She was very thorough, available for appointments, phone calls and helped with all the procedures to find us a home that fit our needs.

My experience with Aligned Real Estate Group was one of the best decisions I made to find my new home. The process to locate a new place to live can be a very challenging one and the team at Aligned Real Estate Group made the process incredibly easier. There expertise in the Real Estate market is amazing. They will set you up with a link to their site that will enable you to search for any type of home located in you region you seek to live. Its fast and gives you the choices you are looking for based on your search criteria. I highly recommend contacting them when you are looking to find your dream home. I want to express my gratitude and appreciation to Janet Brink and Katie O'Hara for their tireless work in finding a great community and place to live. The are rock stars and if you are looking for your dream home it is in your best interest to reach out them. Many thanks again Janet and Katie.

Katie O’Hara was a God send. From the moment we connected, it was clear that she has a wealth of knowledge about the Northern Virginia housing market. In addition to her professional expertise, she was incredibly compassionate and patient as my family navigated a challenging housing search with very specific needs. I truly can’t recommend Katie enough.

Christy is an amazingly knowledgable person and was very flexible with my family and our schedule. The amount of information Christy gave us to help make a decision about a future relocation was perfect in helping us make our decision. The houses we were shown were exactly what we asked to see. I would highly recommend Christy to anyone.

If you are looking for a new home, I highly recommend Christy. Finding myself as a single older woman (over 60), I decided I wanted a new place. I had many fears. Christy listened and helped me every step of the way. She would suggest places, I would ask about places I found online and she'd look into them and give me the facts. There was never any pressure. I found my home back in Dec 2017 and I am thrilled. Christy is the way to go when you ARE ready to find your new home.

Christy and Diane were fabulous. Both worked very well together to understand our needs, wants, and desires in a new home. We looked at many homes to get different perspectives and when the process was all said and done, we found an amazing home we truly enjoy. Christy was extremely responsive, made the offer and counter offer process seamless, and ensured we were 100% happy.

We recently partnered with Christy & Diane on the search for a home in the Lansdowne/Leesburg area and they were amazing!! Both had outstanding knowledge of the market and communities. They were responsive, flexible and incredibly thoughtful about our home needs. We highly recommend partnering with them to find your next home!

I had the fortune of meeting Christy Stuart, founder of CCA Real Estate when she was doing an Open House that my friend and I attended. I found her very knowledgeable and engaging and I decided that when I too was ready to purchase a home, I'd be contacting her. We ended up exchanging information and meeting a couple times to discuss options. She is an excellent listener and works hard to intuit what your housing needs actually are and what would be affordable. She gave me a book for first home buyers and she also offers monthly educational sessions for people looking to buy. She is extremely low pressure and makes you feel at ease working with her.We recently met up with her partner, Diane Van Dyke to further discuss my needs and intentions. I found both women engaging and insightful. Buying a home can be an arduous and stressful process without the right realtors. I firmly believe these two can help anyone in the market find the right home. I know I am in good hands and look froward to finding the home of my dreams wither their guidance. I highly recommend them.

I couldn't recommended Christy and Diane more highly. They have been wonderful to work with! They are highly intelligent, knowledgeable, and hard-working, but what makes them really stand out is their thoughtfulness and perceptiveness. They aren't just trying to make a sale -- they truly want to help their clients meet the needs of their families. They listen and observe carefully, which is very important to me. I was particularly impressed when they observed exactly the feature in a home that I was looking for, before I'd fully realized it myself. But they were right, so right! They give excellent advice and I trust them completely. Christy and Diane have a rare gift of understanding people. They are extraordinary real estate agents and I enthusiastically recommend them.

Christy and Diane were so helpful through the whole home buying process. It was our first home and they really worked with us to look and sift through several locations and price ranges as we decided what we want. (Or didn't want!)We were reassured through every stage and ended up with a home we love!A few months after the move our AC broke down. We reached out and they helped us get the coverage we deserved from our home owners warranty. We were so relieved. What dedication!We would definitely use them again and recommend to anyone looking!

Christy is not only an amazing real estate agent who listened to all my wants and needs, but she is also a great person. Christy helped me purchase my first home and she would not settle until I found "the one". As a first time home buyer I was very new to the whole process and as you can imagine, overwhelmed at times. She took the time to educate me and teach me the ins and outs. I still keep in touch with Christy and often reach out for advice regarding future home plans to which she always responds with great enthusiasm. I could not have asked for a better experience and I owe it all to Christy. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home.

As first time buyers we were very nervous to make such a big investment as buying a house. Christy took the time to take us to a variety of neighborhoods and house styles to help us narrow down our focus. She worked with us to find just the right house that had excellent parking, room to grow our family in, and was in a neighborhood that had good schools and good property values. She was so patient with us and our dozens of questions! It was a great experience.

Christy and Diane were incredible! They are very knowledgeable about the market as well as investment opportunities. They did a fantastic job showing me many homes within my budget and helped provide great advice. I had a great experience buying my first home with their help!
