Amanda was a huge help when my wife and I purchased our new home. I honestly couldn’t have expected the process to be any easier. We look forward to work with her on selling our old home as well.
We used Amanda to buy our retirement home in Virginia from our current state of Texas. After meeting with her she knew within minutes exactly what we were looking for and guided us to neighborhoods that fit our expectations immediately. While we didn’t find a home on our brief visit we found one once we got back to Texas and with Amanda’s guidance we purchased sight unseen. She has a no pressure demeanor and was so easy to work with. She helped us to negotiate and buy even with a higher offer from someone else. We would definitely use her to sell if we find ourselves ever wanting to leave.
We initially reached out to Amanda after seeing a home online that we were interested in. We knew that she was an expert in our neighborhood and would be able to guide us in selling our home if we decided to move. Amanda was quick to respond to our request and shared helpful insights during the viewing. Although this first house wasn’t “the one”, Amanda was aware of another potential home that was not yet on the market. We loved the house, and she was able to reach out to the owners and negotiate a fair offer on our behalf. With her knowledge of the local market, she suggested a fair price for selling our home, and was able to match buyers with our house without listing. Amanda was a great guide throughout the entire experience and was an expert on how our off-market sale and off-market purchase would work. Throughout the experience Amanda was very communicative and kept us updated of progress of the transaction and next steps. Amanda was quick to answer questions through the process, helped us deal with some unexpected circumstances that came up, and provided great advice through the transaction. She helped throughout the closing process, including at closing, to keep the process smooth, quick, and relatively painless. We would not hesitate to work with Amanda again and would recommend her to any friends looking to buy or sell a home. She was knowledgeable, professional, and clearly has a passion for what she does.
We cannot say enough about how great our experience was and how appreciative we are of Amanda's guidance and help. We are so excited about our home. As first time home buyers, we were nervous and didn't even know what was possible. Amanda made us feel at ease and helped us realize we could get our dream home. She was patient and took something scary and made it exciting and fun. We are grateful to have found a realtor we can trust.

We highly recommend Amanda as both a buying and selling agent! She was wonderful throughout the entire process, with great straight-forward advice and support. She went above and beyond for us, resulting in our house going under contract in just a few hours. She is caring, attentive, and fabulous to work with. She cares about her clients and the community, giving back in innovative and thoughtful ways.
Amanda’s dedication to her clients is unparalleled. This, combined with her meticulous knowledge of her field and her excellent marketing skills, allowed us to feel secure our interests and investment were protected. Don’t underestimate her negotiation skills because of her compassionate and eloquent demeanor. She is a woman in charge! Best yet, throughout this process, I feel I have gained a forever friend in Amanda and look forward to working with her again in the future.
We have been blown away with Amanda as a person and a realtor. She helped us sell an investment property, getting us full asking price. She did a great job marketing our listing by putting the property on a local TV show, she held open houses, and put it all over social media.. We received multiple offers and countless showings within weeks. She told us exactly what we need to do in order to get it in selling condition, and had contacts that could do the work. She also helped us purchase another property which appraised for much higher than what we bought if for. We are very thankful!
We have been incredibly impressed with Amanda Ostrander as a realtor and a person. We have felt that she has listened to our wants/needs, has been extremely flexible with our crazy schedule, and has routinely delivered on all our requests. She is passionate about her career and is well-informed on the Roanoke area housing market. Highly recommended if you want a realtor who will fight for you and truly be on your side!
