Debra was great from the start. Challenge working from a distance, but she made it work and stayed in contact continuously. Was quick to switch up when we decided on a new build. Her knowledge of the area was beyond what we expect from a Realtor. Lastly, her support with contractors was greatly appreciated.

Debra is a true professional. She takes the time to listen and understand the needs of her clients and quickly uses that information to deliver just what we wanted out of our new home. Friendly and punctual, Debra ensured that we took advantage of every second of our available time. She was also there to assist us with any questions we had along the way. If we ever have a need to house hunt again, she will be the first call we make!

Debra Monette is an excellent realtor. She exceeded my expectations. Debra was very thorough with the process of looking at different houses and neighborhoods. She listened to us in our concerns with what type of home and neighborhood we were looking for. Since we were relocating from New York State we did not know the area. She asked us what we like and disliked and what we were looking in a home. She took very good care of our family and met my wife and I at every appointment and told us what to look into when purchasing a home any defects or concerns. Once we found our home she worked effortlessly to make sure we received a good deal and worked along with the other realtor to make sure problems were fixed and home closed in a timely manner. We loved at how honest Debra was about each home she showed us and about neighborhoods that we would see. We recommend Debra for a realtor. She is honest and trustworthy and takes time out of her schedule to meet with you and answer any question you have.

Debra was the best tool I could have possibly had to help us secure and find our first home. She was there every step of the way and put us first answering every question on even her days off. We couldn't be happier with our house and couldn't have done it without her! She's the best 20 out of 10!

I could not be more thankful for having Debra be my agent for first home buy. Her experience, knowledge and professionalism were instrumental in making the experience pleasant for my spouse and I! There was not a phone call, text or e-mail that she didn't respond to in a timely manner. Debra was always willing to go the extra step and make time, and always happy about it. The best part, she listened, learned what we were looking for and ultimately guided us to what we wanted, the sale wasn't just a sale, it was a life move! Would not have wanted anyone else!

Debra is awesome. She listened to what we were looking for. She was invested in helping us to find our new home and throughout the entire home buying process. She kept us relaxed, she was prompt, always friendly, and yet focused on details we might have otherwise missed. We always felt that finding our perfect home was genuinely more important to her than simply getting a sale. We could not have asked for a better agent and we recommend her highly and without reservation.

The overall experience was ok. As a first time home buyer, I was not sure how things go and what to expect. The experience was not what I expected or what I hoped for but in the end we got a house we really liked. No major problems.

I recently went through the very stressful process of a corporate relocation, moving from the west to east coast. During this transition, I had the opportunity to work With Debra Monette.
Being new to the Virginia area, we were really looking for guidance to understand the different areas, along with pros and cons to each. Debra knows the Hampton Roads area very well, was well informed about the market and gave us honest feedback. She took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, and how to engage with us during the process.
Ahead of our house hunting trip, we worked back and forth with Debra to identify all the properties that we wished to view during our time there, wanting it to be as efficient as possible. Debra dedicated the weekend to us, which was perfectly scheduled, and most definitely made the most of our time together. During each property showing, she always considered the area, the home, school systems, resale value and helped guide us/keep us grounded in our decisions.
Once we had finally made our decision, Debra showed her real estate expertise yet again. She was excellent during the negotiation process and always responded immediately via phone or email with any concerns, keeping things moving. She hit every mark aloing the way and coordinated all parties right up until closing day. During the inpection period, and even post sale, Debra has a wide network of excellent trades people in the area.
We had an excellent experience working with Debra Monette. It is important to trust and like who your work with. And on top of it all, she is just a really good person. I would highly recommend her for your real estate needs.

Debra Monette is very professional and trustworthy. She was dedicated to me and my husband finding the right house. She responded promptly to my questions and concerns. She negotiated with the builder as if she was buying the house for herself. Thank you so much Debra for being the right realtor for me. I would recommend your services to my family and friends.

Working with Debra was very easy especially being a first time buyer and buying out of the state I was in. She made me aware of the smallest details and would not let anything get past her. Even when she was on vacation she still was in contact with me. By far, Debra was the best Realtor I experienced. I would recommend her to anyone.

Debra is an honest and caring Realtor!
She will tell you the truth about things in a home or the process of buying the home, it is like a good trusted friend who you respect to tell you the truth! What a wonderful experience doing business with her!
I am a seasoned home buyer and she made it less difficult and when I needed her to be present she was there to talk to or cry to ! Amazing !

As a first time buyer, Debra made it extremely comfortable in my search for the perfect house. She was very accommodating and supportive when a potential house didn't work out but when the perfect house did come along, her persistence paid off and within hours, I was under contract. I could not be happier with how everything worked out, especially with my new lake view!! I would highly recommend Debra to anyone looking for a new house.
