Testimonials
What Our Customers Say...
I had a great pleasure working with Joseph. The county almost auctioned my house due to property tax delinquent. Joseph helped me to avoid the auction. I had many offers on buying my home, but I decided to sell my home to Joseph. He gave me the best offer among other real estate companies. He was a sincere, trustworthy, and professional real estate agent. I highly recommend working with Joseph.

Joe & NANAMI are very professional, but at the same time very caring of the seller’s financial situation. For me, I was living hand to mouth for some time. They asked if I would accept some help and I said yes. They forwarded the tenant’s security deposit to me, plus October’s rent on top of that so I would be able to stay at a decent motel until my husband arrives from Florida. They walked me through every step of the way so I wasn’t surprised or caught off guard. They are truly hard working people building a solid reputation one client at a time. I will recommend them to future sellers, they’re a fantastic team!! You just can’t go wrong with their advice. They compliment each other in their knowledge of real estate. I’m very happy knowing they help people like me.

I recently sold my house located at 8315 Ramsgate Ct. Alexandria VA to the UrbanX Home company owned and run by Joseph Nguyen and his wife Nanami Motoyama. They made this experience very pleasant for me. Joseph is a very knowledgeable and experienced business man. He proved to be trustworthy and true to his word. I would not hesitate to use him in the future. Using his company was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Working with Joseph at UrbanX was fantastic. He is very knowledgeable about every aspect of the industry, and most of all honest and trustworthy. He gave me a very fair price for my home, as is, and walked me through every step of the way from start to finish, going above and beyond. I didn't have to do anything, he did it all for me. It was stress free. An amazing experience especially considering I was apprehensive going into it. I would wholeheartedly recommend Joseph for anyone looking to sell their home. In addition to being my real estate agent, I consider him a good friend. Truly amazing person and very professional.

Joseph was a very proactive and well informed realtor for us. He was always very professional in communicating with us, very timely in answering our questions and helping us get our house ready to be on the market. Living in Reston, there are many additional considerations regarding HOAs and Joseph helped us navigate through the entire process of listing. He was a great help to me and my family - I recommend him - he was easy to work with and will go above and beyond to help you!

It was a great pleasure working with Joseph Nguyen of UrbanX Home / UrbanX Development. He sold my sister's estate property in As Is condition without any repairs to the house. There were eight related sellers living in different states and overseas. He coordinated with all of us for a really smooth transaction. The sale was not easy due to an adjacent undeveloped lot that needed professional study and permits so he advised me to select the correct buyer who can close this property and the lot altogether without any issues. Joseph is a respectful and courteous Realtor. Even though I had renovated this property, I would have NETTED almost the same amount by selling it AS IS, which I did. Therefore he advised me to sell my sister's estate AS IS without putting any money to renovate in order to save money and time. I highly recommend Joseph to anyone seeking a professional Realtor who can get the job done."
