“We have purchased and sold many homes over the years and worked with numerous realtors. Andrea is by far our favorite! She is organized, detail oriented, caring, a hard worker and goes above and beyond to make things as easy as possible. I wish we could take her with us wherever we move!”

“What an amazing experience with Rebecca Rushforth and the whole team at Maple Avenue Living in selling our home in Northern Virginia this Fall, 2024. We were looking to more quickly on the sale of our home and Rebecca and the team were incredibly fast, energetic, responsive, understanding, and in every way in sync with what we wanted to accomplish every step of the way. Rebecca presented an extraordinarily detailed and comprehensive plan for marketing and selling the home -- and followed through on each and every detail with the utmost care, including in the negotiations with the buyer to get to yes. So many things truly stand out that it is difficult to highlight all of them. But in particular, the plan for presentation of the home, including staging an empty home, was thorough, well thought out, and implemented to a T; numerous hours were spent in preparing the house and then holding open houses to showcase it; negotiations with the buyer's agent were handled professionally and with great skill. And the communication was flawless -- we were informed about everything and our input was solicited and implemented immediately at all stages of the process. I suppose if you look hard enough you may find another agent that is as skilled, professional, and knowledgeable as Rebecca and her team. But I can assure you will not find someone as trustworthy, as diligent, as good a listener, as good a communicator, and as extraordinarily friendly and kind as Rebecca. Do yourself a favor and engage her and the team in the sale or purchase of your next home -- it will be the best decision you ever make.” 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 ▾

“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 ▾

“We had an incredible experience with Rebecca Rushforth and Maple Ave Living. Nobody knows the Vienna area and market better than Rebecca. She listened to our needs, found our dream house in the perfect Vienna neighborhood, and arranged for us to see it before the house even went on the market! Without Rebecca's guidance and knowledge of the community, we never would have found this dream home for our family. (In addition to being a phenomenal realtor, Rebecca is a genuinely kind and amazing person, which means that she's beloved in the community and routinely knows of opportunities before they ever hit the open market.) Rebecca also did a fantastic job selling our previous home--she staged it beautifully, and it sold well above our asking price (setting a new record in the neighborhood). She was also incredibly patient in walking us through the closing process for both homes. Selling or buying a home is a daunting task, especially in today's market. But with Rebecca, the entire process was seamless--a testament to her tireless work and attention to detail. I cannot recommend Rebecca enough. If you are looking to buy or sell in the Northern Virginia area, she is simply the best.” 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 ▾

“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 ▾
