It's great to start your search a little early. Get familiar with the areas you like, the style of home you prefer, and begin to narrow down your must-haves. Then, when you have an idea of what you want, give me a call and we can start looking in earnest for the perfect place for you!

From pricing, to staging, to knowing just how to make your home stand out in the market, you want the best professionals on your side. Even if you are just thinking of listing your home but not quite ready, give me a call and I can help you develop a game plan that works with your timing to make the process as stress-free as possible.

Buyers mostly, but also a few prospective sellers and a lot of landlords and tenants.

My clients were looking for their forever home after leaving their overseas jobs and settling in the area. They were clear on what they loved and we found the perfect home on the very first day of touring! The whole transaction, from offer, to contract, to closing was almost seamless and I truly wish I could have found them a home right next door to me because I would love to have them as neighbors! Seeing their joy at closing when they walked away with the keys to their dream house was unforgettable and the reason I do this job.

I love everything homes and houses and real estate and am excited to help you as your personal real estate agent! I've arrived at my career in real estate from a background in counseling and teaching, and many years of unpaid service positions in churches, communities, and schools all over the world. Over the past 23 years, I've moved my family (with 5 kids, two dogs, and too many boxes of books) to eight different countries, returning regularly to live in the D.C area for domestic assignments between diplomatic tours. I am accustomed to constant relocation and intimately acquainted with helping individuals and families through stressful and exciting transitions, and I will help you navigate the process from start to finish. Whether this is your first time renting, or the 100th house you've sold, I hope my deep connections to the community and schools in the area, familiarity with military and state department life, and decades of house hunting, renting, and property management can be an asset to you.
