“Our experience with Stephanie Hougaard and Maple Ave. Living could not have been better. Thanks to the time and effort from Stephanie and the rest of the team, we received … multiple excellent over-ask offers on our home. We have sold multiple homes in the past and have never seen someone work as hard as Stephanie did for us to get the best offers. Maple Ave. Living truly is different than other real estate firms from their knowledge of current market conditions, to the care they take making homes look the absolute best they can for sale. I know they work just as hard for their buy side clients. Stephanie, Andrea and Rebecca care deeply about each client and their specific needs and wants, whether on the buy or sell side. We cannot recommend them highly enough, wish we could give more than 5 stars! Thank you so much to Stephanie Hougaard and Maple Ave Living!” Read More ▾

This Week on the Maple Ave Minute: Embracing Jolie Laide!
We`re shifting gears from market trends to the design world, diving into a bold trend poised to define 2025: Jolie Laide—French for "pretty-ugly." 💡✨
This movement breaks away from perfectly styled spaces and celebrates quirky, conversation-starting pieces that showcase YOUR personality. 🎨🏡 According to Elle Decor, it`s the ultimate rebellion against the "magazine-ready" look, and we’re here for it!
I’ll share a personal Jolie Laide addition from my home—now it’s your turn! Drop a comment: Is this trend a hit or miss for 2025? 💬👇
👉 Watch now and join the conversation—let’s hear YOUR take on this playful trend!

We are often asked what happens to the real estate market after the election. 👉 Swipe to see the data.
The market has responded positively in terms of volume of sales and pricing for 9 of the last 11 elections. We are expecting interest rates to ease a bit and the buyers and sellers that were waiting out the election to come back for a strong 2025. Let us know if you’d like more detailed information on how this election may impact your home value. #election2024 #2025predictions #sellingviriginia #buyeragent #mapleaveliving

What an incredible transformation at 2717 Glencroft Road! Can’t wait to find another house to make beautiful for another lucky buyer. ✨✨
🏡 Just Sold! 🎉
We are thrilled to announce the sale of 2717 Glencroft Road in Vienna! This property was a true gem from the start, with its incredible location, neighborhood, and solid bones.
We purchased this house in June and embarked on a full renovation, gutting it from top to bottom. Our vision was to transform it into a stunning home, and we’re proud to say we achieved just that!
The best part? We sold this beautiful property pre-market for the highest price ever recorded in the neighborhood! It was an exciting and rewarding journey, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
A huge thank you to everyone involved in this project. We look forward to bringing more amazing homes to life in the future! 🏠✨
