“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 ▾

“My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Stephanie Hougaard to sell our home in Fair Oaks Estates. Our experience with Stephanie was stellar from start to finish and was an absolute dream come true! We have never met another realtor who has more local knowledge and process expertise than Stephanie, or who is a more personable, … warm and caring person then she is. She was highly responsive to any questions that we had during the process and she also provided us with regular updates. Stephanie has so many strengths (we could go on for days describing them!) and among them is her attention to detail. When we saw the listing package that she created for our home we were totally blown away- the staging that Stephanie did at our house, combined with professional and stunning photos, were more than we could have ever imagined possible. Our house looked so great that we almost didn't want to sell it, that says a lot! Thanks to Stephanie, our house had multiple offers and went under contract quickly, and for well over the asking price. Stephanie truly cared about us throughout the process and went above and beyond to ensure that we were well taken care of and we are proud now to call her a dear friend.” Read More ▾

“Stephanie will provide you the best experience possible! The entire process was amazing because Stephanie truly cares. Knowledgeable, professional, organized and extremely hard working, Stephanie made what can be a very stressful process simple. Stephanie went the extra mile in every way while helping us get ready to sell the home, during the negotiations and then navigating the final details … of the process. She even spent hours with me when an appliance broke helping to fix it with us prior to an open house to help save us the cost of a repair person. I can't recommend Stephanie and her expertise enough. You will be so pleased with the service you receive working with her from start to finish. Stephanie is warm, reliable and determined to help make the process easier for her clients-she takes care of everything for you. Amazing attention to detail, Stephanie is so passionate and considerate of your goals throughout the entire process. You won't regret selecting Stephanie as your representative!” Read More ▾

“Stephanie was so professional, but also warm and personable from the moment she walked in our home. Not only was she very familiar with the current market and highly knowledgeable of our neighborhood and area, she was the most detailed agent I have ever worked with. Unlike other agents we'd worked with in the past, she made sure that we … reviewed and discussed every possible part of our home that could potentially be raised as an issue in the sale and discussed her recommendations with us. We agreed on a plan to prepare our home for market with the goal of a quick sell at top dollar. She definitely delivered! We had a high price offer the first weekend on market. Her services didn't stop there. She was very helpful with us during the moving process and even made arrangements for cleaning services as well as for the trash to be collected after we were gone. Stephanie provided top of the line, full service from beginning to end! I'd definitely recommend working with Stephanie!” 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 ▾

“Andrea was such a huge help for us in selling our house in Vienna. We had a lot on our hands with a newborn baby and two other kids, but Andrea completely took care of us! She helped us stage our house and get it ready to list. We received multiple offers above asking price, and Andrea walked us through … all the offers, so we felt confident in our decision. Andrea kept us informed throughout the selling process and was available to answer any questions we had. We felt very satisfied with the whole process and could not have felt more taken care of. We would recommend Andrea to anyone in the Northern Virginia area!” Read More ▾

“Andrea and her team helped me sell my prior house and purchase a new home. Doing both at the same time required a lot of moving parts and Andrea helped me walk through every step. Not only did Andrea get me three offers within 2 days but all offers were above list. At the same time she helped me get … seller concessions on my new home and guided me through a very competitive market. One of her greatest strengths is her attention to detail. Her staging ideas were effective in completely transforming my home with a few brilliant touches. It really looked like a different home. So happy with her work and would highly recommend!” Read More ▾

“I highly recommend Rebecca Rushforth to anyone buying or selling a home in the Vienna/Oakton/Fairfax County, VA area. She helped us to sell our home in the early stages of COVID lockdown, and it went better than could have been expected! She kept us apprised of all showings and interest, and advised us well about cosmetic changes. She had handymen … at the ready to get our house ready for sale. Her staging was fabulous! I completely trusted her advice and judgement throughout the entire process. Thank you, Rebecca, for selling our house!” Read More ▾

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.
