I'm here to help you with the sale or purchase of your home.

I've been selling houses now for ten+ years, though I've long been immersed in the world of real estate.  My mother was an agent, and in fact, co-owned Chambers-Cross, a real estate office in the Chicago suburbs (Winnetka). 

My area of expertise is concentrated in Bethesda/Chevy Chase, where I live, though I'm well versed in the overall DC market.  I'm actively involved in the community and schools, having served as membership coordinator for the East Bethesda Citizens Association, and a two-year term as PTA Co-president at Chevy Chase Elementary School.  I've got great contacts and a wealth of information about and throughout the region.

I work with new buyers, old buyers, repeat buyers, short sale buyers... These days most people can find their future home of choice on-line.  My job is to help you sort through all of the minutia involved in buying a house:  figuring out local comparables, transportation, restaurants, schools, and most importantly, contract negotiation.  It's my job to help you get the best house for the best price.  It can take a week.  It can take a year.  I'm with you every step of the way. 

I also work with all sorts of sellers (condos, houses, down-sizers, up-sizers, out-of-town sellers and those just plain leaving town!).  The key to my success has been in my extensive familiarity with the DC region and my complete devotion to detail.  I work with an in-house graphic designer and photographer, so your house is always shown in thebest possible light- both on-line and through our gorgeous brochures.  I can offer a variety of staging options for furnished or un-furnished homes. And I'll preview your home and make suggestions for improving various elements enabling you to position yourself to get top dollar.  I advertise not only through print media (The Post, the Washingtonian, etc) but through a variety of social media including the Multiple Listing Service, Craigs List, Realtor.com, Zillow, Redfin, and my own website.

Why in the world would you want to work with me?

Here's why:  I'm professional, organized, keep you in the loop on a daily (and sometimes hourly) basis, and have a wonderful roster of past and present clients.  I know the schools, transportation, running trails, dog parks, restaurants, sports leagues, neighborhood clubs/pools, etc...  I've got a long list of tried and true vendors who provide me (and you) with assistance on mortgages, inspections, home repairs, landscaping, under-ground oil tanks, mold remediation.... you name it!  I can walk you forward and backward through a contract. I've got great connections AND I'm connected.  Check out my BLOG at:  www.bccdcRealEstate.com
