Why work with me
Only With Me
Buying or selling a home is a lot more than putting a sign in the front yard or opening doors to see a house. To get top dollar for your home or find the house that’s a perfect fit for you and your family, you need an expert who has outstanding attention to detail and up-to-date research. A professional who knows how to combine marketing, presentation, and area-specific sales and purchase strategies is a tremendous advantage to guide you through this complex process.

About Me
Making Clients For life Not just one transaction
I am an entrepreneur and real estate professional with seventeen years of experience in International Real Estate Investment and Small Business Development. I am a knowledgeable, dedicated, and laser-focused realtor, a committed ally ready to negotiate on your behalf by using my company’s vast resources, local market-specific knowledge, and analytical skills. I pride myself on making real estate selling and buying a much simpler process for my clients. I go the extra mile for every client, and my goal is to make clients for life, not just for one transaction.
MY APPROACH TO REAL ESTATE
Real estate isn’t just about putting up a sign or touring homes—it’s about strategy, market expertise, and execution. I specialize in guiding clients through every step, from pricing and marketing to negotiations and closing, ensuring they make confident, informed decisions that align with their goals.
With deep knowledge of the Washington DC, Montgomery County, and Arlington markets, I help both buyers and sellers succeed by using data-driven insights, customized plans, and expert negotiation skills. Whether you're looking to buy your first home, move up, downsize, or relocate, I offer a full-service approach tailored to your unique needs.
I work with clients at all stages—those selling, buying, or doing both—navigating the timing and logistics to make transitions as seamless as possible. My patient, results-driven approach means I work with you as long as needed to achieve the right outcome—no pressure, just strategy and execution.
I work with all types of buyers and sellers, but my specialty is guiding clients through more complex transitions—sellers who are also buying, buyers who need to sell first, first-time buyers, and those relocating into or out of the area. These situations often involve nuanced timing and logistics, and my role is to make the process as seamless and strategic as possible. My patient, results-driven approach means I work with you as long as needed to achieve the right outcome—no pressure, just thoughtful planning and execution.

EXPERIENCE THAT SHAPED IT
I am an entrepreneur, a strategist, and someone who thrives on problem-solving. My journey into real estate wasn’t a straight path—it was built on 17 years of experience in international real estate investment and small business development, giving me a unique perspective on markets, negotiations, and long-term financial strategy.
I believe that real estate is more than just transactions—it’s about people, decisions, and life transitions. I approach every challenge with a blend of analytical thinking and real-world adaptability, ensuring that no matter the complexity of a situation, there’s always a path forward. I don’t believe in shortcuts—whether it's in research, negotiations, or guiding clients through major financial decisions.
Outside of work, I’m deeply involved in my community, advocating for local business growth, and initiatives that make homeownership more accessible. My approach to real estate is shaped by these same values—creating meaningful connections, being a trusted resource, and always putting long-term success above short-term gains.
Success Stories

"When we started to look for a home in Georgetown, DC, we did not know any real estate agent in the area and were connected to Irina by chance. It is hard to believe but the stars were aligned perfectly for us: Irina is not only an experienced and extremely knowledgeable realtor but also goes the extra mile, is efficient, works long hours and is a pleasure to work with. Irina arranged for us to see our dream home and put us on a successful path..."
Gerlinde Whetzell
"Irina was fantastic to work with on a recent closing that I had the pleasure of working with her on. She was excellent at communicating all pertinent details to her client and to me as the title company representative, and was extremely nice and pleasant to work with. She was definitely on top of her game, which is so important and appreciated... "
Nicole Crugnale
"I'm very happy to recommend Irina. She helped and guided me through every step of the process, and I needed that given that I was moving from a house I had occupied for 40 years! She is clear-headed and manages to combine empathy with real business sense. She is a lovely, engaged realtor, and I would certainly work with her again."
Connie Elsberg
"Irina was an amazing agent. After a poor experience with our first agent, we were lucky to have Irina recommended to us. She not only guided us through the process of buying as new home as first time buyers, she also helped us though a lot of unique situations in the closing process. Irina was always positive and professional despite our many set backs and helped us get thorough every single one of them. I highly recommend Irina."
SH M
"We feel so lucky to have met and found Irina as our realtor! We were looking for someone who was very organized, a clear communicator, and who really cared about supporting us through the entire process and answer all of our questions. We got more than we expected with Irina 🙂 We loved that she established expectations and roles+responsibilities with us early on..."
Audrey Tsaima.
"We are the first home buyers. Irina conducted with us not only a search, but along the way explained how the mortgage system works and what points such newcomers like us should pay attention to. Thanks to Irina's sensitive attitude towards us, the process went smoothly for us and we are now the owners of a beautiful townhouse! 😃👍🏼 Irina, good deals and grateful clients! Cheers!"
Artyom Kokhan
"Irina is the *perfect* real estate agent. She worked with myself and a parent as we worked on buying a condo together with diligence, grace and discretion. She managed the entire process with honesty and transparency, and she was incredibly responsive to our texts/calls with questions, which she answered SO helpfully. I cannot recommend Irina enough. I'd give her 10 stars if I could!”
Serena Saunders
"Irina has been wonderful to work with, very pleasant personality, diligent, kept us on track with timelines. She responds to text and email msg very quickly. I highly recommend her!"
