    By Heather Elias | January 14, 2021

    We’ve been following the luxury market in Loudoun on our blog since 2010, writing yearly wrap-ups of the most expensive homes sold.

    Worried about how to sell and buy at the same time? It’s okay: I get this question from just about every client who is thinking about selling.

    Virtual Staging? Absolutely Works.

    By Heather Elias | February 18, 2019

    “Is it better to show our home empty, or with our furniture in it?” That question inevitably comes up in most of our pre-listing conversations with our seller clients. And it’s a fair one: would a buyer more easily be able to envision living there if the space was empty or if the home still... Read More

    Coach’s Corner, Where Everybody Knows Your Name

    By Michael Elias | January 30, 2015

    One of my favorite shows growing up was Cheers, a sitcom about a Boston bar and the lives of the people who frequented it. The theme song and tag line of the show was “Where Everybody Knows Your Name”. I think every community yearns for that kind of place and thanks to Rob & Jen... Read More

    CarrHomes Hits a Home-Run with Waterford Creek

    We’ve always felt part of the reasoning behind having an estate was to feel secluded. Unfortunately most of the new communities we’ve seen offering 3+ acre lots fall short.
