“Andrea and her team at Maple Ave Living were amazing! They confidently walked us through the entire process, gave their expert opinions, and were extremely efficient. Andrea advised us on home renovations, helped us find a trustworthy contractor who completed our renovations quickly and did amazing work, staged our home for showings, and she was even thoughtful enough to bring … us lunch one day! I can't speak highly enough about this team. I'd recommend them to everyone! Thank you Andrea, Rebecca, and Stephanie! You made a very daunting process painless!” 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 and her team are amazing. They marshalled the process of our first purchase in this area. We have rented for 7 years and were nervous buyers. Andrea managed the whole process with ease and was a great negotiator on our behalf. We were very happy with the negotiated price. She was especially calm when our financing fell through only … 2 weeks before closing. Andrea managed the sellers agent while we scrambled and found a new lender. We will not go anywhere else for an agent in this area. The process is so much more complex than we thought. You need Andrea on your side!! We highly recommend her and the team at Maple Ave Living!” Read More ▾

“2024 was a big year for our family as we sold our home of 32 years to move and build a new home. Stephanie Hougaard of Maple Avenue Living made what felt like would be a daunting task so incredibly doable. Stephanie’s foresight and understanding of the market in our neighborhood allowed us to put our home up for sale … at just the right time. That combined with her network to get the word out about our home put us in the position to get exactly the price and terms we wanted in just a few days. Stephanie and her colleagues are hands on people- offering great advise on what we could do to be successful for pre-sale and post sale with offering to help with anything from de-cluttering to getting movers. We felt so fortunate that we had Stephanie Hougaard and the team at Maple Living to advise and guide us through the sale of our home!” Read More ▾

“We have bought and sold many houses and worked with lots of different realtors, Andrea was by far our favorite! She helped us buy our home and then also helped us sell it when we had to move again. Both experiences were extremely easy and seamless. She is organized, professional, caring, a hard worker and just goes above and beyond … to make things as easy as possible. If I could take her with me to everywhere we move I would.” 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 ▾

“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 were first time home buyers and Rebecca made the purchase of our condo so easy! She is so knowledgeable about home value and the area. She was prompt in returning emails, texts, or phone calls. I would recommend Rebecca to anyone who is looking to purchase a new home.”
Valerie Erickson
“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 was a godsend for us as my husband and I had to pack up our home and family and relocate across the country in a matter of days. She and her team worked tirelessly to get our house ready to put on the market. She staged our home beautifully, got pictures and flyers sent out within a couple of … days, held two open houses, and even brought us dinner and dessert one night in the midst of our packing chaos. Our house was under contract within 72 hours with multiple above list price offers. She communicated with us newbie home sellers and took time to answer all of our questions and concerns. Our house closed within a few weeks without a hitch. You can’t go wrong with Andrea and her team. Seriously the best.” 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 ▾
