Laura is the best. This was the second time that we worked with Laura to find a house, and she found us a fantastic off-market option. She understood our needs and helped navigate a crazy market. Not only was she on top of everything that needed to get done, she was a delight to work with. I’m hoping we don’t buy another house soon, but if we do, Laura will definitely be the first person I call!
We recently bought our first single-family home with Laura and our experience with her was incredible from start to finish. Laura found us a home that had our must-haves and more, was within our budget, and the exact location we were hoping for. It felt like we were looking for a “needle in the haystack” in this market and Laura went above and beyond to find us our home. Laura noticed someone giving away furniture online and although she did not know where this person lived or if they were selling their home, Laura sent her a message. It just so happened that this was exactly what we had been looking for and within a few days we were under contract! Laura is very knowledgeable, experienced, patient, and enjoyable to work with. We could not have asked for a better home buying experience, and we would not have secured our dream home if it weren’t for Laura. We highly recommend her for anyone looking to buy a home!
Laura Schwartz is a fantastic realtor who has guided me through seven purchases and sales of property in Fairfax, Vienna and Falls Church. She is extremely experienced plus has an enormous focus on customer satisfaction. I would highly recommend her. You will be delighted with her competence and overall professionalism.
Laura was amazing throughout the entire sales process. She at all times possessed a calm and reassuring demeanor, and was extremely knowledgeable with respect to a variety of questions we had, from current market conditions to inspection items to financial issues. She also was incredibly responsive and always totally professional. Most importantly, she was able to quickly procure 4 offers for us all above asking price! We would highly recommend Laura - you won’t be disappointed. Liz and Andy Bentzinger

Laura is a strategic thinker, thorough and acts with integrity! She is someone you want on your side and we would not hesitate to recommend her.
Laura is everything you need and more in a realtor. She's experienced, practical, wise, perceptive, assertive when needed, and completely enjoyable to work with. She's navigated every real estate scenario and then some, and her encyclopedic knowledge of the market allows clients to focus simply on what they need instead of worrying about what-ifs. She's also always listening. She paid close attention to us as people, not just business prospects, and her guidance helped us close the deal on the home we will be happiest with over time rather than settling for second best. Laura is the top-tier expert you need.
As a home buyer, and general human being, I know how much reviews can sway your decision making process. Yet, I wish there was a stronger way to communicate my enthusiasm in recommending Laura as your real estate agent. My family went through quite an evolution, between target areas, price points, must-haves, etc. Laura never waiver in her patient, yet direct honesty. Laura is not a “yes” person. She will give you her honest opinion because she wants you to make an educated decision, based on facts. Every time we’d like a house, she’d be following up with us an hour or so later, with recent comps so we were educated in the market and ever-fluctuating prices. We’d look to her for her insight and valued it, whole-heartedly because we trusted that she had our best interests in hearts in all facets of the home buying process. As mentioned, our evolution eventually took us to moving out of the Northern Virginia area to be closer to family. We never questioned who we’d want to list our house. Laura made incredibly helpful recommendations, such as staging and pricing, and we are walking away with an amazing profit that I’m confident that wouldn’t be the same without her expertise. Our selling transaction was not smooth (due to the buyers), but Laura is a shark and was on top of all necessary parties to ensure we closed and all commitments were honored. Lastly, Laura becomes part of your family. She is thoughtful, dropping off treats when she knows you’ve had a rough week, and genuinely becomes your friend and confidant. She has set the bar at an insurmountable height, and we have not found an agent in our current area that comes close to her knowledge, professionalism, work ethic, and personality. We always say “They’re not Laura, but..” . You want Laura in your corner!

When we decided to list our home for sale, a neighbor recommended Laura to us. We met with her and were immediately impressed with her confidence and knowledge of the local market. She expertly advised us on our listing price, and how we could stage the house to get the best offers. She aggressively marketed our listing so it would reach as many buyers as possible. After only four days of showings we had multiple contracts and sold our house for above asking price! We could not have been more pleased with Laura, she was wonderful to work with. We highly recommend her!
We had a flawless experience with Laura and could not recommend her more highly. She’s a smart, confident agent who we felt we could trust from our very first meeting. Her response times by text and phone were lightning fast, so we had nearly instant access to her through every step of the selling process. Also, Laura’s knowledge of the DMV real estate market and her extensive professional network meant we had real-time intelligence throughout the listing cycle. Her strategy and work ethic speak for themselves. Even in the strong seller’s market we enjoyed, Laura far-surpassed our ‘best case’ scenario by delivering multiple bids and a sale price 23% above asking (setting a new price record in our neighborhood.) Laura has continued to support us, not only from contract signing to closing, but even now, as we settle into our lives in a new state. She gave us invaluable guidance and results. Laura is the real deal.
Laura is an exceptional realtor. She provides a depth of insight to local markets and economic conditions that help both buyer and seller (we've been both with her!) make solid marketing/purchase decisions. We worked with Laura during a particularly difficult time for buyers, and she gave us excellent advice every step of the way and we secured a wonderful home. She made the process clear and easy when it easily could have been the opposite. We highly recommend Laura to absolutely anyone seeking the help of a realtor!
