No sign in the yard, no open houses, no public price history. I bring qualified buyers to you through my investor and agent network, and you control the showing schedule from start to finish.
Pricing built on live MLS comps for your exact block, professional photography, staging when it earns its keep, and negotiation from someone who reads the other side's numbers for a living. White glove when you want it, hands-on when you need it.

Get Your Free Investor Roadmap →My condo was listed for only two days, attracting significant interest and multiple showings. This resulted in two full-price offers, and I was able to accept a cash offer. I have to close by saying Lexie went 'above and beyond'. I can't imagine going through this without her.
From North Arlington to the Eastern Panhandle of WV, I've broken down the region's most interesting places by state, lifestyle, and investment potential. Whether you're relocating, upsizing, or hunting your next deal, start here.
I didn't start in real estate to become an agent. I started because I wanted my dog to have a yard.
In my old line of work, a missed detail could carry real consequences. I read a house the same way I used to read a tough national security problem: what's actually going on here, what it's really worth, and what it could become. I've bought, held, house hacked, and renovated homes down to the studs. So I help you underwrite a place before you fall for it, which is easy to do with homes around the DMV and WV.
I also hold a Master of International Affairs along with degrees in political science and business, which gives me a different lens than most agents. If you work in defense or national security and have struggled to make real estate work around a demanding schedule, I get it. I've been there.
Here's my honest read: most of my clients aren't stuck because they don't work hard. They're comfortable, but they know there's more out there: more freedom, more cash flow, more room to actually live. My job is to turn equity, a smart renovation, or a well-timed purchase into real financial ground under your feet. Riches are in the niches, and yours starts with one strategic move, not ten years of research.

Six anonymized case studies, plus outcomes my clients described in their own Google reviews. Every result below is documented, and every case study shows the decision behind it.
Most agents sell you a house. I help you make a decision. Here is why that difference matters.
I collaborate with vendors who help you understand the underlying issues in a home. I envision what a home could become and paint that picture for you, so you understand its true potential. For a seller, this means pricing it right. For a buyer, it helps avoid expensive mistakes.
Arlington and Fairfax Counties are my home base, but I am also licensed across the DMV. I am intimately familiar with cities and neighborhoods across DC, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia, and have excellent referral partners when my clients' needs expand outside my range.
I love to share the "why" behind every move, because informed clients make better decisions. My job is to make sure you understand the reasoning behind every move, not just the what, so the call is always yours to make with full confidence.
If something seems off, I will tell you, and will always keep your best interests in mind. Even if that means encouraging you to walk away from a deal. Because not every house is a deal, or the right option.
Not a chatbot, virtual assistant, or junior team member. Straight strategy, real advice, and a genuine relationship, from the first call to well after closing.
Every one of these runs live in your browser. No email wall to see the math. Pick a strategy, plug in a deal, and see whether it actually pencils before you ever call me.

"Lexie is extremely communicative, professional and full of energy. She certainly does not shy away at challenges that arise and always comes with several solutions towards getting them resolved. I am super appreciative of everything Lexie has done to get us to the closing table!"
"I've dealt with several realtors in the past year in both buying properties, selling properties, renting to tenants, and renting for myself. Lexie was BY FAR the best. Very professional, very easy to work with, very responsive. She went well beyond expectations in terms of support. Highly endorse."
"Lexie helped me purchase two properties, and I would absolutely work with her again. She never tried to steer me toward a higher price point—in fact, she helped me negotiate aggressively and always kept my interests at the forefront. I was out of state for most of both purchases, and she accommodated that with ease. … She can look at something that might scare other buyers away and recognize that it may actually be a relatively simple or inexpensive fix. She has both an analytical mind and an artistic eye. … She's willing to tell you when something isn't a good deal, when you shouldn't spend more, or when you should push harder in a negotiation, even when doing so doesn't benefit her in the short term."
"Lexie is a one of a kind real estate agent that truly puts my needs as the client before her own commission. Lexie went above and beyond what I could ever imagine a real estate agent doing to help educate me and make me feel confident purchasing my first home that is a multiunit investment property all while I was (and still am) working internationally. … She went to tour homes for me that ranged in price from $400k to $1M all over the DMV area during the week and on her weekends, took extensive videos and notes, and never complained about it. … She repeatedly said to me, “Your success is my success” and she meant this. She was not just trying to sell me a home, she wanted my first investment property experience to be a good one and to see me succeed as an investor, and she did everything to ensure that happened, everything. … I could never have dreamed of finding a real estate agent like Lexie. Anyone would be so lucky to have Lexie work for them. I cannot recommend Lexie enough!"
"Working with Lexie was the reason our first investment property acquisition in Northern Virginia went as smoothly as it did. From day one, she brought a level of preparation and motivation that's rare to find in an agent. Before ever pitching us on a strategy, she did the homework: pulling comps, running market research, and making sure any recommendation she brought us was grounded in real data, not guesswork. … As an investor herself, she genuinely understood what we were trying to build and always kept our long-term interests front and center, not just the transaction in front of her. She went well beyond the scope of a typical agent: helping us shop and compare mortgage options, insurances, connecting us with reliable contractors, and staying hands-on through every step until we closed. … We wouldn't have secured this first NoVA investment property without her."
"This is the fourth time I've worked with a realtor in the WMA area, and it was hands down the best experience I've had. From the beginning Lexie was incredibly prepared with well researched information and statistics about my property and comps in the area. She put together a very cohesive and competitive strategy that ultimately led to the property going under contract after just one showing! … The peace of mind that my investment was in the hands of someone I could trust meant the world to me."
"My condo was listed for only two days, attracting significant interest and multiple showings. This resulted in two full-price offers, and I was able to accept a cash offer. I have to close by saying Lexie went 'above and beyond'. I can't imagine going through this without her."
"Lexie was absolutely phenomenal. She had our back every step of the way, and watched out for our interests at every step. She communicated well, gave us good advice without just telling us what we wanted to hear. Honestly, couldn't have asked for it to go any smoother or easier - and that's all about Lexie's 'can do' and assertive attitude."
"Working with Lexie is always a breeze. Her organization and attention to detail makes closing transactions with her a breeze. With expertise on different markets around DC, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia, and an understanding of appreciation, the local economy and movement, she is always my first call!"
"Lexie is the best real estate agent I've worked with. She is very thorough, professional, and has a great attitude. She truly listens to her clients' needs and works diligently to meet them. Having a real estate agent who understands the market makes all the difference, and Lexie absolutely does. Thank you, Lexie, for your help and for the fast turnaround."
"Lexie did a tremendous job helping us sell the house fast and smoothly. She is great to work with - professional, thorough, and knowledgeable. Will call on her again without any reservations!"
"Had the pleasure of working with Lexie on a recent closing and her communication was top notch - very involved from start to finish and ensured a smooth closing for both seller and buyer. Thank you Lexie!"
"Lexie helped us to find a tenant and worked very quickly and professionally. She was referred to us by a friend and glad to work with her!! She is very responsive and kept us updated at all times!"
"Lexie was nothing but spectacular to work with. I rented from her for about a year. She made the renting process essentially seamless. Lexie was easy to contact with any questions or concerns. … Not to mention during the holidays she surprised us with homemade baked cookies which added that personal touch and made us feel more at home, very thoughtful. She also provided a wealth of knowledge within the real estate realm with her helpful tips. … I highly recommend her for your real estate needs. Lexie is top tier!!"
"I had an excellent experience renting from this landlord for 1 year in Arlington, Virginia. Communication was consistently prompt, clear, and respectful, and she made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. She had made a list of close by restaurants, grocery stores and shops near by; I was not from the area and found this extremely helpful. … I received my security deposit back within a week of leaving the property. I really appreciated the professionalism, fairness, and genuine care for the tenant experience."
The right strategy depends on the area and your goal. Here is how I think about each.
My core markets. Whether exploring a historic Alexandria rowhome, a Cape Cod in North Arlington, a traditional home in Reston, or a townhome in Herndon: this is where I live, invest, and know every neighborhood deeply.
For clients whose search or sale crosses state lines. DC and Maryland each have unique strategies, tax implications, and market dynamics compared to Virginia. I know the differences, and use them to your advantage.
Where long-term rental cash flow may make more sense than it does at home. An appreciating market positioned to grow over the next decade: a favorite choice for the investors I work with in Harpers Ferry, Charles Town, and the surrounding area.
Also serving Loudoun and Prince William Counties, at times spanning out to the broader Shenandoah region if it fits your strategy. My reach adapts to where the deal makes sense for you.
Plenty of coaches will take your money. Few know the DMV + WV market the way I do, and almost none bring the analytical background I have. I apply the same systematic rigor I used in national security: pressure-tested, direct, and built to produce an actual answer. Not more questions.
Whether you're anywhere in the country or right here in my backyard, these are the ways I can help you move from stuck to acquired.
A personalized diagnostic, not generic advice, that maps where you are in your investing journey, what's actually blocking you, and the specific next steps for your life and goals. Delivered as a framework you keep and reference.
A focused 60-minute strategy call for investors stuck in analysis paralysis or at a major decision point. I audit your situation, your goals, and the market, then deliver a concrete path forward with exactly what to do in the next 30 days.
For sellers, landlords, and anyone navigating a complicated real estate situation: inherited properties, long-distance sales, tenant-occupied homes, underperforming rentals, or difficult life transitions. I evaluate every option before making a recommendation, then manage the process start to finish.
Selling, buying, investing, or just trying to figure out your next move. Send a note and I'll get back to you personally, usually within one business day.
You probably already know your market and have a general sense of what you want. What most people are missing isn't information. It's the next step. That's what this is for: quarterly market notes, investment tips, and off-market deals I'm tracking, straight to your inbox. No spam, just what's actually worth knowing in the DMV.
