The first thing I do when meeting a new client is to get a good idea of what they hope to achieve. I bring more than 25-years of hands-on real estate experience to the table and always come ready to share insights and give recommendations.

This isn’t a part-time gig for me. So, when I’m giving perspective, answers, or strategy, you’ll know I’m going to focus on your real estate goals.

I started this site as a smart resource for my clients, but it is okay for you to keep reading because it will give deep insights since my posts are based on actual experiences.

My background, I’ve been an active licensed agent in Virginia for 25 years, work at TTR Sotheby’s International Realty in McLean, and sell homes in all price ranges. From condos to awesome custom homes.
