Zach Costello is a first rate realtor you can trust to get the job done right. This is the second time I have worked with his company, and it is for several reasons. First, he gets the job done efficiently. There are no ambiguous communications, frustrating “lost in translation” moments, or excuses. In other words, nobody’s time is wasted because he is organized, punctual, and type A in the best way possible - tuned in to what is going on. Second, he knows how to craft a strong offer that beats out the competition. This is key in NOVA. Third, he is a total professional who cares about his work and clients, and it is evident. Do yourself a favor and enlist Stello Homes as you prepare to buy your next (or first) home.

Amazing experience with Stello Homes! They made my process as easy as possible and truly took any and all stress from me. They kept me in the loop with any and all changes; communication was top notch! Not only have they helped me secure the house of my dreams but they are also ensuring the sale of my current house goes smoothly with many proactive measures. Just amazing all around!

We worked with Zach as first time buyers. Even though the 2021 market was insane we were able to buy a house in approximately 12 weeks. We liked that Zach was patient, honest, and detailed when we asked him questions. One of the reasons we chose him was his added background in construction. It helped make decisions since most homes in the current market were being sold with zero contingencies. He wasn't pushy and was willing to work with us as his schedule allowed. He is professional and responsive. We would definitely recommend him.

I used Stello Homes to remodel two bathrooms and they did a fantastic job. Zach was extremely responsive throughout the whole project, worked with me to meet my deadline and did not overlook any details. I was out of town for the majority of the project, but Zach was frequently on site to ensure everything went smoothly. Upon my return, there were some minor details I wanted to change and Zach took care of them immediately as they arose. Zach cared for the project as if it were his own home being remodeled. I would highly recommend and will use Stello Homes again for my next remodel!

Zach and the Stello Homes team recently remodeled our guest bathroom. Zach was professional and responsive throughout the process, from helping us to pick finishes through questions we had before, during, and after the renovation. We are beyond happy with the results. His team showed up promptly at the agreed time every day, kept our house clean, and wore masks throughout.I’d recommend the Stello Homes team to anyone in the northern VA area!

Zach was great! My wife and I were feeling a bit overwhelmed putting our first home on the market, so we asked Zach for his expertise. We took some time to speak with him on our goals and he went above and beyond. He was thorough, patient, and calm the whole time as he guided us on the prep work to put our house on the market. Zach was always responsive for a quick phone call or text and calmed our nerves whenever we had some questions. We also appreciated him coming by several times to our house as work was getting done on it to check in with us. Not only did it sell instantly, but we got a great deal with with a long rent-back period, which took the stress out of us having to get out of the house quickly. We are very happy with the outcome and absolutely recommend him for anyone with house needs. He was a pleasure to work with!

Zach helped us update our home, sell much higher than we thought we would be able to with a rent back period to allow us to find a new home at the right price and in the right timeframe. He has been professional and responsive throughout the process even when we changed things at the last minute. He has gone above and beyond to give us the full Stello Homes service and we could not be happier!

Zach has made our house sale and purchase flawless. Spending time with us before listing the house to work through what we should update to get the best ROI, finding our dream home before it even hit the market, and now doing a basement build out on the new house.We would not be in this perfect situation if not for the guidance and professionalism Zach has shown. We have already recommended him to other friends and family and will continue in the future.

As a first time home buyer I had ZERO clue what I was doing but Zach was incredibly knowledgeable and patient as we went through my home search. He also has a rolodex of recommendations for any home needs including loan company, plumbers, electricians - really anything you'd need! We managed to find my perfect home. Knowing I could trust Zach to look at the "boring" stuff (HVAC, water heater, etc) while I focused on the pretty hard wood floors was key.Highly recommend for your first or fifth home buying needs!

Our experience with Zach was excellent!. We were selling our house of 20 years and looking for our new home! Zach set our house up for success to see at top dollar. He then spent hours researching, sitting in builder meetings, walking lots, asking questions, writing contracts, and viewing houses. We were able to find the perfect home with Zach's guidance. We highly recommend Stello Homes!

The Stello homes team did an amazing job in our recent home purchase. Buying in a competitive market can be very stressful, but Zach made it very smooth. We were able to get the home we wanted in the price range and area we were looking for. Due to his knowledge and strategies we were able to beat out other offers. We couldn’t be more happy! Thank you Stello Homes.

This was the best contractor experience I’ve ever had. We did a large scope of work with Zach and team and they hit it out of the park. Zach is extremely customer focused and his goal is to satisfy. He and his crew are always professional and his manner of engaging puts you at ease. When encountering issues he stayed calm and focused on making sure we got what we asked for. Value overall is outstanding. In our case the team worked long hours to complete our project while we went on a long vacation and it was greatly appreciated. I recommend Costello Homes without any qualification. Honest, reliable, friendly, professional. Great job!

Zach and the rest of the Stello Homes team blew us away. Buying our first home , we were pretty nervous but Zach's expertise and guidance really made us feel at ease. We competed against 5 other offers and won out at a sales price under what we were expecting to pay. We're also excited to get some remodeling done with Stello Homes before we move in. I'm sure that will be great too. Stay tuned!

Had the pleasure of working with Zach Costello to sell our home and purchase our new home. Zach’s hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home on NoVA really paid off. Would recommend Zach without hesitation. He’s a true professional and a genuinely nice guy, and you won’t find anyone better.-Mike & Robin
