I bought my first condo in 1998 and I loved it. The condo, the concept and the affordability. I loved it so much that on the advice of the real estate listing agent who sold me my condo, I got my real estate license. Then, I created The Condo Connection, started my career in 2000 specializing in condominium sales, and have been doing so ever since.

The Condo Connection is a professional, independent Real Estate Brokerage Company specializing in a niche market of Condominium sales and leasing in the DC Metropolitan area. Over the years, I’ve developed expertise and proficiency in every nuance of condominium sales and leasing, and have become exceptionally good at it. I put the full extent of this experience, and expertise to work for every client I represent, serving as a trusted advisor, representing my clients’ best interest, and always striving to exceed my client’s expectations.

Since 2000, I have had the honor of representing a diverse clientele, consistently delivering a high caliber of competence and successful experiences to each of my clients in simple and complex real estate matters. I continue to so with same enthusiasm, alacrity, and genuine honesty as I did when I first started my career.

It is always my hope that we create a rapport that goes from customer to client, and then from client to friend.

Buyers' Representation

As your Buyer's Representative, we can make the process of house hunting much easier and more efficient than if you did it all yourself. We can help you get financing, guide you to local neighborhoods, help you determine your budget, and prioritize a list of essential features that you need in your next home. We'll save you valuable time by finding the properties that best suit your requirements, and will show you only the most promising ones.

Once you've found a place that catches your eye, we'll look at comparable properties in the area to help determine a purchase offer. Then we'll negotiate on your behalf with the seller to make sure you get the most favorable terms.

It's our job to look after your best interests, and we will do so at no cost to you as a buyer.

Sellers' Representation

Selling a house on your own can be an overwhelming task. There's advertising to plan and budget for, open houses and private showings to arrange, purchase offers to negotiate, contract contingencies to worry about, and complicated paperwork to fill out. Make it easy on yourself by putting your home in the hands of seasoned professionals. We have extensive experience marketing properties and showing them to their best advantage.

First, we'll perform a comparable market analysis to determine the most appropriate price for your home. Then we'll provide home staging advice and suggest other changes that will help draw buyers in. We'll advertise your home through a variety of methods, including local publications, social media and online MLS® listings. We may even showcase your home as part of our site's Featured Listings.

When it comes to negotiating a purchase offer, we'll make sure that you get the best price the market will allow. We'll help you understand contract contingencies and details of the closing process, in addition to handling all the paperwork for you. Essentially, we're here to represent you throughout the entire selling process, and to make sure that your real estate transaction is a positive and profitable experience.
