Find a Great Deal On a House You Can Turn Into Your Own
Many buyers love this idea, but overpay because they lack the experience, knowledge, or guidance they need to make the right decisions when it comes to price and cost of improvements. We know how to find you a deal and negotiate the right price so that we can build in and create your home after you close on it. Are you ready to make a wise investment?
Maximize Your Sales Price
Don’t just hire a listing agent who’s going to outsource all of the prep work and put the project management costs on you, or sell to a builder who wants the lowest price possible. We work with our sellers to make cost-effective improvements ranging from small paint touch-ups to full house renovations in relation to your goals and timeline to net you the most amount of money from your home sale. Don’t settle for anything less!

How much could you make on your home?
Working with Stello Homes was an absolute pleasure. From start to finish, we received the highest level of customer service and professionalism. I would recommend Stello Homes to anyone looking to purchase or remodel their home.

My family and I could not have had a better experience than what Zach and his team at Stello Homes provided for us when our bathroom needed an update. Zach was incredibly helpful, informative and thorough during our communications leading up to when construction began. The job required work in our second floor bathroom as well as the living room underneath. The team did a great job of keeping the work areas clean during the job and the finished product was even better than we hoped. I will certainly be looking to Stello Homes for future work on our home and highly recommend them to other family and friends.

Zach, Ted, and Sarah helped my wife and I buy our new home in Manassas. They were fantastic every step of the way providing a helping hand no matter what we needed. The incredible thing about them is their round-the-clock dedication. Oftentimes, crucial decisions would need to be made at inconvenient times (nights, weekends, holidays etc.) and they would constantly make themselves available to walk us through our options. Zach and Ted are also very strategic and play the chess match very well making them a crucial resource for a buyer in a sellers market when competition is red hot. They're also very detail oriented. Walking through a house there's nothing they'll miss. Finally, even after you have bought your home you can rely on these guys as a constant source of valuable information from recommendations to first time home-owner tips. These guys can answer just about any question you throw at them and if they don't know, they'll find out for you. Give them a call.

The experience my husband and I had as first-time home buyers with Stello Homes was smooth, easy, and efficient. Zach and his team are friendly, kind, and responsive - we felt cared for the whole time, and never had any worries about missing steps or details. They were our advocates and helpers the whole way. Thank you Stello Homes!!

5 stars truly does not capture how great Zach and his team are. My family and I just moved into our forever home and that’s thanks to Zach and his team. Throughout the entire process, Zach was knowledgeable, responsive and went above and beyond. Trust is important during the home buying process, especially for first time homebuyers, and we had and have complete trust in Zach. He was with us every step of the way and guided us smoothly. As my wife has told Zach, “you can’t get rid of us that easy, we are going to work with you and your team for remodeling” and we wouldn’t want it any other way!

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.
