“We could not have asked for a better person to handle the sale of our home. Andrea provided great advice that resulted in getting multiple offers on our home in the first couple of days on the market. Andrea was there with us through every step of the process from telling us the things we needed to do to prepare … our house to go the market to evaluating the offers and closing on our home. She is the best realtor we have ever worked with. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.” Read More ▾
Testimonials
“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 ▾

“We had the pleasure of working both with Stephanie and Rebecca in the sale of our townhome and purchase of our new home in Fairfax. Stephanie made the process of getting our current house staged, ready for market and sold incredibly easy. The staging she did was a major reason our home sold not only quickly, but well above asking … price. I know that selling a home can be stressful, but Stephanie took care of so many details that we honestly felt guilty we weren't so stressed! When we hit roadblocks, she was there with plan B. Rebecca's advice and experience were much appreciated in the process of making an offer on our new home, especially in this competitive market! Stephanie and Rebecca were always a phone call, text or email away to answer questions. They were both incredibly knowledgable, resourceful, professional, and most importantly, caring. Our family was in the best hands for this major life decision! We cannot recommend Maple Ave Living highly enough!” Read More ▾

“Andrea was lifesaver for us. After an unexpected move, she had our house cleaned out, painted, carpeted, staged and under contract in less than 4 weeks (without us even being there). She is incredibly organized and hard working. She had a clear plan for us immediately and we were kept in the loop at every stage. She is VERY good … at what she does. We cannot say enough good things about Andrea and her team.” 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 ▾

“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 Hougaard is an incredible real estate agent to work with. We were lucky enough to sell our townhome and purchase a single family home with Stephanie by our side every step of the way. She was dedicated to helping us prepare our town home to sell for a great price. She helped us with how to best update and … present our home. She arranged for staging that was beyond what I thought my home could look like. Additionally, our home buying needs were very specific and Stephanie did everything she could to find that home for our family. She was patient, kind, hard working and communicative to us throughout the process. Her customer service skills with us and the other individuals involved were exemplary. Stephanie is very knowledgeable in the real estate market. We are very grateful for her help on our journey.” 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 ▾

“Stephanie is professional, diplomatic, creative, connected, and communicative. In our case, perhaps the most important attribute has been her resourcefulness. Our finished basement needed a few tweaks to be market-ready. She “had a guy.” Through her connections with a handyman, who was also very connected to subcontractors, we were able to address these items in a matter of days. And … she made contact with her handyman. She did not expect us to contact him and make arrangements. When one of the subcontractors was late to our job, she got in touch with the handyman to find out why there was a delay. The contractor was at our property within 30 minutes. Given the struggles average homeowners are having these days with finding good home repair workers, then getting them to actually do the work in a timely fashion, it was a relief to have had Stephanie managing this process for us. She also had connections to buyers who were interested in our neighborhood. She gave us the option of offering our home to four prospects as a “preview marketing” opportunity. Even though we weren’t on the “open market,” we still got multiple contracts and over asking price for our home. We can’t think of a single negative to share about Stephanie and highly recommend her services. It’s a shame these reviews are limited to 5-stars because we would rate our experience a 5-plus.” Read More ▾
