“When we sold our condo, Rebecca was awesome! I had the sense that she was working for us 24 hours every day. There were some hiccups in the process, but Rebecca handled them so calmly and professionally, at the same time reassuring us that everything would work out and be fine. In addition, she gave great instructions on how to make our place look its best and then staged it herself! Rebecca was wonderful to work with, and I wholeheartedly recommend her and the team she works with!” Read More ▾

“My wife and sold our Vienna home in early March 2020 and can only recommend Rebecca and Andrea for their wholehearted support in the whole process. They are extremely customer focused and professional; keeping us informed through every important decision and phase, planning and setting the right price point (provide detailed analysis of comp properties), listing, staging and ultimately running the open house and closing contracts. They combine strong commercial know-how with a very human touch - always keeping in mind that we are selling our home (not just another house). Most satisfying of all we got a very good sale well above our asking price - the ultimate proof that you are in very good hands with Maple Avenue Living.” Read More ▾

“We worked with Rebecca to purchase our new home. She went above and beyond for us! She ensured that our inspection went smoothly and worked with the previous owner on our behalf. The pandemic hit and she didn't miss a beat. She ensured that walk through and closing were completed safely and quickly. Rebecca delivered boxes, meals, and so much kindness through this entire process. She is trustworthy and works tirelessly for her clients. She also has great contacts for contractors and handyman. We are so happy in our new home! I can't say enough great things about our experience working with Rebecca.” Read More ▾

“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 ▾

“We had a wonderful experience with our realtor, Rebecca Rushforth, and the whole Maple Ave. Living team. Rebecca made our home buying experience enjoyable, and it was evident how hard she was working for us during a time when the market was “crazy!” Rebecca was extremely responsive, always accommodated our schedules, and answered our many questions at all hours. On the very rare occasion Rebecca was unavailable, another member of the Maple Ave. team would immediately step-in to assist us or take us to a showing. Rebecca was able to find us our dream home, which we got for list price and with contingencies – something nearly unheard of in the current market. In addition to providing excellent, professional service, the Maple Ave. team also treated us as friends. They truly go out of their way to show appreciation to their clients (they also value the communities in which they work which and support other local businesses – amazing!). I would recommend Rebecca or anyone on the Maple Ave. team to everyone I know. We had the most wonderful home buying experience, and if we weren’t already living in our dream house, we would choose them again!” Read More ▾

“Stephanie Hougaard is by far the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. She helped me list and sell my home in Virginia. Stephanie helped with every step of the long process. She helped me declutter my home, take beautiful, professional pictures of, list it, and then work extremely professionally to manage a delicate situation. The buyers ended up being friends of ours with whom we wanted to maintain good relationships. Stephanie helped us navigate the situation perfectly--she worked tirelessly to meet our needs while helping us maintain wonderful relationships with our friends. She was extremely proficient with all of the many deadlines and details required when selling a home. It was a difficult home for us to sell as we had lived in it for 10 years and remodeled it top to bottom. It was also an emotional time for my family since it was the only home my 4 children had ever remembered living in. Stephanie took care of all everything so my husband and I could focus on helping our family transition to our new home in Florida. Moving is often a difficult, emotional time so if you're considering buying or selling a home, hire Stephanie Hougaard. Stephanie will work tirelessly to make the move as easy as possible for you and your family.” Read More ▾

“Rebecca listed and sold our home in the early stages of COVID lockdown. She is knowledgeable about the community because she lives in the community. She staged our home beautifully. She was honest and guiding about simple cosmetic changes that would make a difference in our curb appeal. Rebecca was in contact about showings and interested parties, and made me feel that I was making the best decisions for the progress of the sale. I have recommended Rebecca and will continue to recommend her to anyone who is buying or selling in the Vienna/Oakton/Fairfax County, VA area.” Read More ▾

“Andrea and her team are the best. My wife and I were so grateful to have Andrea be part of the journey for our first home. She is very responsive and always answered our questions with patience and professionalism (as you can image, we were first time home buyers, so we have A LOT of questions). She made the home buying experience way less stressful because she took the time to find us the ideal home and never rushed us into putting on an offer unless we are "absolutely comfortable." Andrea also gave us great advice when we made our offer and ultimately helped us to knock down the contract. She has been remarkable not just on day one but every step of the way. I highly recommend Andrea and her team! We will definitely work with them again for our future home buying/selling.” Read More ▾

“I would give Rebecca and Maple Ave Living 10+ Stars if I could!⭐️ They are truly amazing! Rebecca is easy to communicate with, so personable and generous with her time. She is responsive to all forms of communication including text, email, and phone calls. She has incredible knowledge and is honest with the information she gives you. She will never tell you anything unless she believes it to be the truth. She will walk you through concerns and explain everything to you in the most unassuming way. She also knows what "hustle" means. I haven't seen a woman who throws more energy, time, and care into her scope of work. Rebecca helped us sell our home in Oakton last month for top dollar and went above and beyond. Can you believe, she came over and helped me sweep my floors and wash my windows...what realtor does that??? SHE DOES! I had the most amazing experience with her and wish I could have taken her with me to help me find a home in Georgia. I honestly think she is invaluable. She's the type of person that you wish you could just keep in your life and make her your best friend.” Read More ▾
