Lydia Zache

Lydia was introduced to me by a childhood friend who bought a home with her help. Over a number of months, Lydia patiently sent me 100s of listings for homes in and around the DMV. The few that peaked my interest, she made herself readily available to go and see the property and provide her expertise on the pros and cons of living in the area. Lydia has good contacts in the industry and was able to get the required information needed to address my questions and concerns. A real go getter! I had settled on a condo in SE DC and went through the process of applying. Unfortunately I didn't get it and that almost turned me off towards looking for another place. My sister came across a property in SE DC and shared it with me and I knew if we got this, it would be a wrap! I sent it to Lydia and she got right to work, helping us to see the place and eventually put a bid on the property. Although our bid was rejected the first time, Lydia is an agent that people remember and gravitate towards. Once the 1st buyer decided to back out, the listing agent gave Lydia a call and said the house was available and inquired if her clients were still interested. God must have been looking out and decided to give us a second chance which we jumped on immediately. The house inspection list was long and lengthy, but Lydia was able to convince the sellers to pay and/or fix every item we had on the list. She really went to fight for us and when they refused to pay for a washer and dryer, Lydia offered and agreed to split the costs with the other agent so that there would be a washer and dryer available for us. Basic things like a necessary heat pump system was an item the seller refused to pay for but Lydia went to bat for us and successfully got the seller to pay for the heat pump system. She encouraged us when things looked bleak and kept our spirits up and found an answer to the puzzle. She is someone you need in your corner to negotiate and represent you. We would not have remained dedicated to buying the home if it had not been for Lydia's continued patience and support.I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is on a budget and needs a quality home at a fraction of the price. I will be referring her to my friends and family. Thank you Lydia for your support and patience! We really appreciate you!

It has been a great pleasure working with Lydia and after meeting with couple of realtors we found her to be very professional and punctual. She exactly understands the perspective of a buyer and recommends based on your liking. The best part is she is NOT too pushy for every home we visit. We were so impressed that we went with her recommended Mortgage and Closing company. She was always on top of the things and went beyond her role to mitigate any barriers we encountered. She is immensely patient and you can consider her as part of your family instead of just a realtor.We wish her the very best and hope she gets plenty of good work!!

Being recently widowed ... Lydia was the agent who I selected to work with .... I was drawn to her.... I was very stressed and a bit overwhelmed as I really just wanted to move forward with my life and buy a new property after experiencing great sadness.... and Lydia was there to help me.... she was very sympathetic to my situation she didn't ask a lot of questions but found out the areas where I wanted to reside and found properties which would work for me.. then when we found my property needed a new roof and the railing needed to be replacedas it was a hazard which could hurt my baby Lydia was right there with a referral for a good inspector ... whose report convinced the seller to replace the roof and to replace the railing. I was able to select a railing which I really liked. Lydia is not a person who gives up when the going gets tough she has your back... the seller's agent threatened to sue me for damages if I didn't move forward with settlement even though what occurred wasn't my fault as it was a lender issue and Lydia took my part and didn't back down. Lydia is someone who treats buying a home for you like its a home for a family member or herself and she doesn't let others push her around. She gets people to listen to your side and to do what will benefit your family. I would refer her to people as she is your agent in good times and in bad... she is a good agent and a good person. she is the realtor with a heart.

Lydia seems like she has been in my life forever ..... she is the agent who represented me on the purchase of my new home for my family but she has been with me from thegit go and has a vast knowledge on a lot of real estate related topics..... she gave me ideas on where to buy cabinets and contractors for updating my kitchen...whenever I have a problem with my home she is on speed dial and knows exactly who to call and what needs to be done.... she has introduced me to her friends who one named Michael even gave us a Barbeque when we closed.. and is also a part of our family. I send my referrals to Lydia and she has found those people homes.... Lydia inspired my daughter Roni to join the Real Estate field.I didn't understand the process or what to do being a first time buyer and change is very hard for me ... but Lydia and her friend Michael explained it all to me and now I have a complete understanding of how the process works and have referred Lydia to my friends and family. Being someone who has lived at the same rental for the past16 years it is exciting to find such a lovely property in Alexandria that works for my large extended we are all living under one roof and we are proud owners of our first property and we plan to consult with Lydia for all of our real estate needs in the future.

I have to say ... Miss Lydia sort of blew into my life and was there to help me when I needed her. She is a breathe of fresh air and as I had an agent who left for Europe and couldn't do my transaction when I needed it done, Miss Lydia was there to catch the proverbial ball. She called me on the day I sold my house and put the puzzle pieces together in a timely manner and found me a property on the same day we spoke. With her fabulous negotiation skills, had me under contract at a great price with all the inspections done and made it possible for me to pre settle into the property and had me settled into the property of my dreams in Gainesville in just under two months time. She and I have embarked on a friendship and she has kept me laughing all the way to the settlement table. Lydia is someone I consider my friend as well as my agent in fact I invited her to go to vegas with me later this year. You sometimes have to wonder if things are predestined in life but Lydia did everything in a seamless fashion; her skills are top notch and she is someone who can take her magic wand and make things happen. She knows her areas well and can find the answer to your problems and holds your hand until the end. She cares what happens to her clients and will give you her opinion. She is a person who I would want to be across the table from me with any of my major life decisions and she works with the experts and got me the best deal in financing and has connections with a settlement company where the owner conducted my settlement and I got a free home warranty to boot. Lydia is a consummate professional and she is definitely someone you want to play a pivitol role on your team because she's gonna get you to the finish line on time and will be with you to do the happy dance when its all over. Thanks Lydia for being my realtor and my friend. Here is a toast to you ????!

Lydia .... proved that she will really get out those boxing gloves and fight on your behalf.... I had a situation in DC where the seller refused to give my deposit back Lydia's never give up approach kicked in and she did research and got statements from my lender which were an integral part of getting my money back without having to go through litigation. Lydia encouraged me .... she showed me lots of properties and didn't lose faith even when the going got rough. I would highly encourage anyone to chose Lydia as their realtor... she really goes to bat for you .. she is very knowledgeable and is very charming her approach when negotiating the deal is top notch and since she is a people person she can find solutions and answers to seemingly unfixable situations. I admit there were times I was very discouraged but Lydia found a solution and I was able to get my deposit back in full. I intend next year to buy my home with Lydia in DC when I am in a better financial position and have no doubt that Lydia will find me a place that I will be proud to call home. She has a real talent for finding beautiful properties at reasonable price points and then actually securing them in a seamless fashion. She is an agent you can depend on who goes above and beyond even when the going gets tough. I really cant say enough good things about Lydia ... do yourself a favor and call her today!!!

Without question the best most thorough agent I've ever worked with. Extremely knowledgeable of the area due to being a lifetime resident. Very good eye for finding exactly what kind of places I would be interested in. Unfortunately the circumstances did not come together for me financially this time. I hope to work with her again her again in future.
