I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Irina. She was truly beyond amazing from beginning to end. Since I am out of state, having someone I could completely trust to handle everything was incredibly important, and she went above and beyond every step of the way. Her entire team was amazing, and the network of contractors she connected me with was equally impressive. Everyone was honest, thorough, professional, and affordable, which made the entire process so much easier and gave me tremendous peace of mind. She communicated with me every step of the way, kept me informed, answered all of my questions, and made sure my expectations were realistic throughout the entire process. I always felt like I was in capable hands, even from states away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely dedicated real estate agent. She made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless, and I'm incredibly grateful for everything she did!
Irina and her team were absolutely fantastic from start to finish! We had the pleasure of working with Irina on both the purchase of our new home and the sale of our condo, and we could not have asked for a better realtor to guide us through both transactions. Irina is incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of the buying and selling process, but there are two things that truly set her apart: how well she knows the local market and how much she genuinely cares about her clients. She was extremely well-versed in the neighborhood, the different home models, and all the details that helped us make confident, informed decisions. She also has an amazing network of resources and vendors, and her recommendations were invaluable throughout the process. Most importantly, we always felt that she genuinely had our best interests at heart and was personally invested in helping us achieve the best possible outcome. She went above and beyond for us on numerous occasions, often anticipating what we would need before we even thought to ask. We always felt that she was fully in our corner and working tirelessly to make both transactions as smooth and successful as possible. We also have to give a special shout-out to her administrative team, especially Krissy, who was absolutely fabulous. Every detail was handled with care and precision, deadlines were tracked, and communication was consistently excellent. Whether you're buying, selling, or doing both like we were, we cannot recommend Irina highly enough. She is simply the best!
We highly recommend Irina Babb for any home-buying journeyaEUR"she is absolutely the best! Irina spent countless hours helping us find our new home, to include personally meeting us at several homes of interest. Her communication is unmatched; we asked questions about homes, interiors, and potential upgrades at all hours and daysaEUR"including weekendsaEUR"and she always responded quickly with helpful details and photographs. Irina is no-nonsense, candid, professional, extremely savvy, and deeply knowledgeable. She made very sound recommendations and was honest enough to talk us out of homes that weren't right for us. At the very beginning of our search, she quickly identified our non-negotiables and desires, successfully finding several homes tailored to our liking. You want Irina on your side!
Irina is easily the most impressive real estate agent I have ever worked with; her professionalism, work ethic, and attention to detail are over the top. She has shepherded me through numerous real estate endeavors from renting my mothers vacated condo to its successful sale nearly a decade later. She works so efficiently aEUR" answering texts and emails often within minutes 24/7, its as if she has identical twins helping her. Over the decade I rented my condo, she provided pro bono assistance for lease renewals, real estate financial planning, contractor referrals, or anything else I needed; she was like a pro bono real estate knowledge oracle. Her advice has always been in my best interests, e.g., encouraging me to manage tasks I can handle on my own, rather than paying her to do them. There is no question I will turn to Irina for any future real estate issue while I remain invested and living in this area.
Irina was an absolute pleasure to work with when selling our condo, and we feel so thankful we found her. She is a wealth of knowledge and experience, very responsive, and you can tell that she genuinely cares about her clients and has their best interests at heart. When another agent broke our doorknob after a viewing, she rushed to our home to help and immediately called a locksmith for us. Buying & selling is so stressful but working with her almost makes it feel easy. She really put us at ease, I only wish we knew her when we bought our condo. We definitely know who to call when were ready to buy again.
Irina was absolutely amazing throughout the entire selling process! She made everything so easy and stress-free by taking care of every detailaEUR"we basically just had to pack up and move out. She was always incredibly communicative and responsive whenever we had questions, keeping us informed every step of the way. Irina is also a true expert on Cameron Station. Her knowledge of the neighborhood, the local market, and the selling process gave us complete confidence from start to finish. We couldnt have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Irina to anyone looking to buy or sell, whether youre in Cameron Station or anywhere else. She truly goes above and beyond!
Irina was outstanding throughout the sale of our home. From the initial consultation to closing, she was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. Her deep knowledge of the local market helped us price our home strategically and attract strong interest from buyers. Irinas attention to detail, effective marketing, and constant communication gave us confidence every step of the way. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, our home sold quickly and for an excellent price. She was always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and ensure the process moved smoothly. What truly sets Irina apart is her genuine care for her clients and commitment to achieving the best results. This has been a great experience for our family to entrust the sale of our home with Irina, and we are glad we did! We are extremely grateful for her hard work and highly recommend Irina to anyone looking to buy or sell. M & L
Irina Babb is incredible and was a pleasure to work with through this whole process! She walked me through every step of the way as it's been over 15 years since the sale of my last house. She went above and beyond in helping with the sale to include providing me a list of reliable contractors/service providers to assist with repairs around my home to include even ordering me faucets for my home that needed to be replaced. She was available at all times and was quick/patient in regards to my questions and concerns. Additionally, she was helping my daughter at the same time who was in the market to rent a condo! I would HIGHLY recommend her for buying or selling a home in the Alexandria, VA, Northern VA area!
A crA?me de la CrA?me experience! Irinas knowledge, attention to detail, can and will-do attitude in the real-estate world is the equivalent of a Three Star Michelin rating in the fine-dining restaurant world. If Michelin Stars were awarded in the real estate world, Irina Babb would receive Three Stars + Irina treats and takes care of her clients like beloved family. There is nothing she would not do for her clients. She never misses a beat; she is always on call and responds quickly. You feel her love. Thank you, Irina, for my exceptional home-purchase experience.
Irina did a terrific job for us in both selling our old house and buying our new one. We were living in Cameron Station and wanted to stay in the community while at the same time downsizing. She was able to find a condo that fit our current needs and sell our former house with a minimal amount of stress on our part. And with very good financial results on both transactions. We recommend her wholeheartedly.
Irina Babb is exceptionalaEUR"truly best in class. Weve worked with her for more than 15 years and just closed our third home with her guidance. She knows the market -- and not just Cameron Station.

She and her team operate like a precision machine, handling every detail and complexity seamlessly, including the negotiations on our most recent purchase. Irina is the agent you want on your side. She delivers results, protects her clients, and exceeds expectations every time. We recommend her without reservation.
Irina has been our real estate agent when buying a townhouse and selling my mother's condo. Both times we loved working with her. She was very professional and knowledgeable. She kept us informed throughout the process and immediately answered any questions we had. She has an amazing knowledge of the Virginia housing market. She went above and beyond when handling and coordinating repairs during the home inspection. Through the whole process, Irina handled everything efficiently and effectively. Her efforts made our lives easy and provided us with a great outcome. We would highly recommend Irina to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

We enjoyed working with Irina when selling our house and couldn't be more impressed with her team's exceptional service. From the beginning, she demonstrated impressive local knowledge that set her apart. Understanding the nuances of our neighborhood, Irina provided us with a detailed market analysis that helped us put the right price on our home. Irina showcased remarkable expertise throughout the entire selling process.

Overall, we highly recommend Irina to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Her local knowledge, expertise, negotiation skills, and outstanding responsiveness made our selling experience smooth and successful. Thank you for making our transition so positive!
Irina has years of passionate experience and a solid reputation for building and sustaining the Cameron Station community. After a decade of residence in Cameron Station, I chose Irina to sell my original home nearly 15 years ago. On choosing to return to the community this year, I was happy to see Irina continuing her business - and worked with her again to find a right-sized and well cared for home to return to. Irina ensures that her listings are well and properly represented, that all parties are well and transparently treated, that all concerns are resolved promptly with the best of resources - and with the utmost respect and professionalism.
Irina was fantastic. From our first meeting, she took charge and handled everything. All we had to do was pack and find a moving company. She even had recommendations for that. We would not have been able to find contractors, get quotes and approve contracts to upgrade our home in the time frame we needed if not for Irina. Irina is truly a miracle worker. She is also a very nice lady and a joy to work with.
Irina has been in the real estate business for more than 20 years in Alexandria, VA. She has extensive local knowledge and good insight into the market. She knows how to price and market, therefore she sells fast. She is very professional and very kind in helping people. She guided me through the selling process and has done so much for me beyond a normal real estate agent does since I don't live in the area. She not only helped me choose wood floor material but also went to the store personally to see the material. She made sure the new fridge I ordered fits the space. She always responds my message within minutes. If you work with her you can rest assure that she has your best interest in her mind. I recommend her 100% to anybody who wants to buy and sell the property in the area
Weve had the privilege of working with Irina twice aEUR" first to buy our home in Cameron Station and most recently to sell it aEUR" and both experiences were exceptional. Her deep knowledge of the neighborhood is unmatched; she knows every street, every model, and exactly how to position a home to sell quickly and at a great price. What truly sets Irina apart is her network and responsiveness. The vendors and contractors she recommended were fantastic aEUR" professional, reliable, and fast aEUR" which made preparing our home for market so much less stressful. Plenty of agents sell in Cameron Station, but none come close to Irinas track record or expertise. Theres a reason shes handled more transactions here than anyone else aEUR" she genuinely knows how to deliver results. We wouldnt hesitate to work with her again or recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area. Irina is also just so very kind... a genuinely lovely human!
Irina wildly exceeded my expectations. I cannot adequately describe how helpful she was in guiding us through the process of finding and buying a home. At every step in the process she was always one step ahead of us in terms of details, support and judgement. She was attune to our goals and found us the house of our dreams. If possible i would never use another realtor other than her moving forward. One of the best experiences Ive had in years.
It was a pleasure to work with Irina. She was knowledgeable, well-organized, and professional. She found a good buyer with a good offer quickly and helped close quickly. She helped with getting necessary repairs done to the home too.
This is the second time Irina has been my realtor to buy/sell a home. Shes extremely knowledgeable, great at negotiating, very responsive, and very direct/upfront which I really appreciate. Highly recommend if youre looking to buy or sell a home in Northern Virginia to reach out to Irina!
Paul and I cant say enough good things about our experience working with Irina Babb. Selling our home after 25 years was a huge emotional and logistical undertaking, and she was with us every step of the way. In a challenging market, she not only got the job done - she exceeded our expectations in every respect. From the very beginning, Irina was incredibly hands-on and proactive. She provided expert guidance on how to position our home for success and was absolutely instrumental in managing our multiple renovation projects (always with an eye toward keeping costs down without compromising quality). Her practical advice, trusted vendor connections, and attention to detail made all the difference. More than anything, she brought a sense of calm, care, and professionalism to what could have been a very overwhelming process. She was patient, responsive, and supportive - truly holding our hands through every decision and stage of the sale. We would work with Irina again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a thoughtful, hardworking, and deeply knowledgeable real estate agent. She's simply outstanding.
Working with Irina was an excellent experience. She is the best at her craft. She has a deep understanding of the market and what needs to be done to get the property ready to sell. She went above and beyond to make this as easy as possible for us and get us the best result in this uncertain market. She is super efficient and aces customer service. Dont waste your time with anyone else.
Irina is an incredible resource! Super knowledgeable and helpful. She is always up to the minute on the market and gives fantastic guidance. My husband and I love her straightforward and kind nature. She made the whole process so pleasant.
When we bought our house in Cameron Station, Irina was the sellers realtor. I knew then that when we got ready to sell that I wanted Irina to be my realtor. She has always been available to answer any questions we had about painters, contractors, etc. When we were ready to sell, she was upfront about costs and the process. She knew what needed to be done to get the best price for our house. She coordinated the painting, carpeting and cleaning after we moved and prepared our house for the market. Irina kept us informed throughout the whole process. She works hard to ensure both her sellers and buyers get the best deal possible. We recommend Irina to for anyone looking for an knowledgeable, honest, hardworking professional with your best interest in mind.
Irina was fantastic in all aspects of the process. She was incredibly professional, diligent, and proactive, and it was obvious that she was advocating for us at every turn. She has a deep knowledge of the community and a great network of contractors and service providers for anything you could possibly need. Id recommend working with Irina to anyone looking to buy or sell their home in Northern VA.
Irina is a fabulous agent. She is knowledgeable of the market and real estate trends, she is warm and open in her interactions with us, and she made the selling process seamless. We have worked with other agents in the past who were also excellent, but Irina is a step above and has a unique ability to anticipate our questions, the steps in the process, and what the property needs to be appealing to buyers. We followed her advice to the tee and sold in a few days with a perfect offer. She is a pleasure to work with and we greatly appreciate her guidance. We would highly recommend Irina to everyone selling or buying a home.
Irina is the consummate professional with unmatched reputation and service to her clients. We have known and worked with her for over 15 years, during which she helped us purchase our first home in Virginia and recently guided us through the sale of that same property. Her long-standing market expertise and deep connection to the communityaEUR"evident through her sponsorship of events and charitable contributionsaEUR"sets her apart. Throughout the years of homeownership, Irina's wealth of knowledge on renovations and upgrades proved invaluable. Her advice on repairs, maintenance, and improvements helped us make informed decisions with future resale value in mind. When it came time to sell, Irina was integral to every aspect of the process. She provided expert guidance on listing strategies, organized frequent open houses, offered regular feedback, and played a key role in the negotiation process. Her friendly demeanor, honesty, professionalism, knowledge, and efficiency gave us boundless confidence, and made the entire experience seamless and comfortable. We couldn't have navigated this journey without her and cant give a higher recommendation if you are looking for a realtor partnership that wins and exceeds expectations. Thank you, Irina and the team at Samson Properties.
Irina offers a comprehensive concierge service. She provided the highest level of professionalism in helping me through the process of selling my home. I faced a time crunch and a major downsizing to get my house on the market. Irina handled everything from arranging for contractors to taking care of some repairs herself. She is dedicated to serving her clients. You can have absolute confidence in the advice she gives you about marketing your home. My house sold in a day. I am forever grateful for Irina's expertise and tireless energy. Most of all, I appreciate Irina for the principled and loving person she is.
My wife and I were looking for our first home. We received Irinas information from a family member who highly recommended her. And that recommendation in itself meant that she was professional, knowledgeable, and great to work with. She went above and beyond. We felt like she was looking for a home for her own family. She was responsive, kind, always available, and worked tirelessly to help us through this process. Her enthusiasm for realty was palpable, she answered every question we had as first time homebuyers with patience and grace. She researched neighborhoods thoroughly, knew about every market trend, and worked with a fantastic team that delivered timely results. This stressful process could not have been any easier because of how on top of things she was. Not only was Irina a phenomenal agent, but her professionalism attracts fantastic team members as well. From connecting us to local lenders to providing quality contractors she guided us every step of the way. Everyone Irina recommended or worked with was just as earnest, hard working, and great at their jobs. Irina and her team are the dream team. Do not go with any other realtor to buy or sell a home. She is simply the best at what she does. We are so grateful that we were able to have her services.
Irina is fabulous! With her extensive knowledge of the Cameron Station community, she facilitated our townhome sale with ease and expertise. She worked closely with us throughout every stage of the process and was very responsive. She has great recommendations for local businesses from small home repairs to moving companies. We have moved many times, and she was by far one of the best realtors. Highly recommend her services!
I was selling my fathers property after his passing, and I was not in the local area. Irina took care of the minor renovation, and went above and beyond what an agent normally does. Not only is she GREAT at what she does, but you can tell she loves it. She finished the property on Saturday, and it was under contract the next day. Her communication is top notch - she kept me informed of every detail throughout the process. 5 star experience from beginning to end.
Irina and her team are absolutely outstanding! She expertly advised us on purchasing a home for our family of five in a very competitive market. Perfect neighborhood, perfect school zone, and perfect home. ?? There is absolutely no one else we would use in VA.
Irina is the best realtor I could have hoped for as a first time home buyer. From the beginning, she understood what mattered to me and that I was willing to be patient for the right opportunity. Her knowledge of the market and attention to detail were exceptional, so I knew I could rely on her excellent counsel along the way. Irina is a skilled communicator, which is probably one reason why has an excellent reputation with other agents. And she's just a wonderful person on top of it all. I want her on my side in any future transactions, and I have (and will) recommend her to others.
Irina Babb is THE premier realtor for Cameron Station. Her knowledge of the homes, community and community members are unsurpassed. Her expertise and professionalism were exhibited from the very first moment of our meeting. We had great confidence from the start that our home was in the best hands. Everything was seamless from listing to closing - Irina had the house under contract before it even went on the market! We appreciated all her hard work in getting us the best deal possible and 100% recommend working with her to anyone.
I sold my home with Irina. Irina was really great to work with. She shows a great understanding and passion for real estate. Her local knowledge and experience really made the process easy. She helped make decisions that would ensure an easy sale, like staging and updates and provided referrals as well. Thank you Irina!
Irina and her team are simply fantastic. The home buying process in Northern Virginia can be quite daunting, especially when you are moving from overseas. Irina and her team made the entire process feel (almost) effortless. She and her team are a delight to work with and we highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell in Northern Virginia.
Irina is an outstanding realtor and knows the northern Virginia market very well! I wish I met her sooner! Irina will educate any first time home buyer/ seller and make the process very easy. Irina helped me sell my home, she went above and beyond, her communication and response time are stellar! Outstanding customer service!!!!!
Irina is wonderful! She is knowledgeable, proactive and timely with all stages of the sales process. Her attention to detail is exceptional. Working with Irina was such a pleasure. I highly recommend Irina!
Irina did an excellent job with selling and buying my new home. She is very knowledgeable, experienced, and detail oriented. The process flowed so smoothly. It was a pleasure working with her. She has excellent contacts and referrals and has an answer for anything that comes up.
From the moment we met Irina she told us she would help us find our perfect home and she followed through with that promise very quickly. She was extemely professional in all our dealings with her and very knowledgeable about the Alexandria area. The whole home buying process went very smoothly. She answered all our questions immediately and was very helpful in every stage of the process. She has so much positive energy and it was a great experience working with her. We highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a house.
It was a pleasure working with Irina! I have bought and sold several houses over the years and Irina was by far the best I've ever worked with. She was extremely knowledgeable and responsive and kept me informed every step of the way. I highly recommend Irina if you ever need a Realtor. I would certainly use her services again in the future.
Since 2014, in each case, with Irina, we have bought twice, sold twice, and leased five times...nine total transactions. Additionally, we intend to engage her soon to sell our primary residence. There is good reason we always turn to her. Best in class, Irina has far exceeded our expectations on all occasions. First, long practiced, she knows her business inside and out. Second, we are certain no one knows the market better than she. Third, responsiveness? Irina does not/not leave you hanging...she answers the mail" in minutes, if not seconds. Fourth, Irina's team is likewise exceptional. Fifth, bottom line...buying, selling, or leasing, she gets us the best deal to be had. Irina is a ten on a five- star scale.
Irina was a pleasure to work with, and has our highest recommendation. She was always incredibly responsive to any questions or concerns throughout the sale of our prior home and the purchase of our new one. Irina is also extremely detail oriented, and has strong knowledge of local real estate market conditions, which helped us have realistic expectations of what price we could sell our prior home at, as well as helping us negotiate an advantageous price on our new home. She gave us thorough recommendations on what we needed to do to put our best foot forward to sell our prior home without being pushy, and had many useful insights about neighborhoods and property conditions as we toured new homes with her.
Irina was outstanding from the first time I contacted her about wanting to sell my home of 25 years. She is very knowledgable of the entire process and , in particular, the Cammeron Station Community. She made several suggestions, which I approved, in terms of upgrades, repairs, etc. That whole process, while a lot of work and stressing on her part, went amazingly quickly (from my part) and paid off in selling the house, for our asking price, very quickly. I could not be more pleased. She is also a delightful person to know and we had many interesting discussions on a wide range of things. I hope to stay friends for a very long time. Pete Wilhelm
Irina was an amazing realtor. She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and the market conditions. She knew exactly what updates my home needed to sell quickly and competitively. She was able to organize getting these updates taken care of and she was Hands-On during the entire process. She was always willing to answer questions and she gave great advice. My home sold very quickly and at a price I'm happy with due to Irina's efforts. I highly recommend her.
I've bought two houses with Irina as my agent, and if I ever buy another in Alexandria I would call Irina first. She was extremely knowledgeable and was available whenever I needed her. She is an expert in the Cameron Station neighborhood but she was also helpful when I was purchasing in Old Town. She was able to secure a large seller subsidy for me and I was able to use that savings towards improving my new home.
This was my first experience selling a property and Irina Babb and her associates helped me every step of the way. There was no question too big or small. She responded to emails at all hours and even lent me some items for staging. She knows this area so well and is so well connected that she could recommend painters, cleaners, etc. I would recommend her to anyone.
Irina Babb is a top notch and amazing realtor from start to finish. She gave me excellent advice when I solicited it a year in advance of my projected sale on what updates I should make- and all reasonable. She put me in touch with amazing contractors- all fair priced and high quality workmanship. Her suggested pricing was spot on and her staging and communications are superb. Her attention to detail was so appreciated. My house sold in 2 days and above price in a softening market- thanks to all she did. Can't recommend her enough!
I can't say enough good things about working with Irina on the selling of my Cameron Station condo. Irina was recommended to me by Micki Arenson, who had worked with Irina on selling her townhouse. Irina had a great list of people with whom I could work with both organizing and moving activities. She personally took care of arranging many improvements to the condo prior to listing, e.g. purchasing a new dishwasher and a new ceiling fan. The pictures of the condo she used for the listing looked like the condo was brand new, even though, as original owner, I had lived there for nineteen years. The condo was under contract after a week. Irina also tracked me down for some signings I needed to do in order to go to closing. I mentioned her work to several of my Smithsonian colleagues and they indicated that she went well beyond their experiences with good real estate agents.
