Picture this: Your Vienna colonial sells in 8 days, $40,000 above asking. Buyers waived the appraisal contingency because your listing agent priced it right, staged it beautifully, and marketed it everywhere serious buyers are looking. That’s not luck—that’s strategy. I deliver this result for sellers across McLean, Reston, Herndon, and throughout Northern Virginia.
The Northern Virginia market is fiercely competitive. Homes in Fairfax County average just 9 days on market, and properties that linger past 21 days typically see a 3-5% reduction in sale price. With 68% of homes selling at or above asking, sellers without expert pricing and marketing often leave money on the table.
The Silver Line expansion has driven prices up 15% in Reston and Herndon since 2022. Loudoun County’s top-rated schools create bidding wars in Ashburn and South Riding. Properties near Metro stations command $50-100K premiums. Without an agent who knows these dynamics intimately, you’re competing blindfolded.
This is exactly why the right agent makes all the difference.
