When circumstances forced me to sell my home on short notice, I was fortunate enough to have Laura Schwartz recommended as my agent by my son who had used her services in the past. Laura is, without a doubt, the most knowledgeable, proficient and talented agent I have ever used. In less than two weeks, she and her crew transformed a cluttered, slightly shabby family home of forty years into a showpiece. Within another ten days, due solely to her preparatory skills, market insight and selling tactics, the final price received was more than $150,000 above my expectations. I can't recommend her more highly.

My husband and I began looking for a home BC (before Covid), and found Laura on several of the "top real estate agent" listings in DC and Virginia. After successfully helping us to complete the process of finding our forever home, she absolutely lives up to every accolade she has earned. Laura's support, non judgmental style, and patience throughout a challenging search (and a global pandemic!) have been invaluable to us. Her advice, contacts within the community, and willingness to meet her client's needs is unmatched. We are so grateful, and highly recommend her to others looking to buy or sell in the area.

We have worked with Laura multiples times (as both buyers and sellers) and the experience has been excellent. She is super knowledgeable of DMV area and makes everything very easy. Most recently, she helped us sell our DC house. She has a great vision on staging the house for showings and can connect you with teams who can help get you there. She was also completely up to date on the COVID-19 protocols and helped us navigate all the paperwork remotely. We are super happy to have worked with Laura and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Laura is highly recommended! She is incredibly knowledgeable, works extremely hard, and is always available to work any issues. Working with such a responsive agent is incredible. Her expertise on the local area is unparalleled and she guided us as buyers who are new to the Northern Virginia area. Specifically, we really appreciated her knowledge of local schools. If you're looking for an agent who is always available to answer a question, solve problems, and represent your interests well you've found it in Laura - buying our home with her was a great experience.

Absolutely amazing! From our initial phone call, Laura showed her dedication to helping me find my first home. Not only is her knowledge of the area and current market trends very impressive, but also, her openness and honesty about my questions on properties helped put my mind at ease. She helped keep me focused on my initial ‘wants and needs list’ and made sure I was going to be in a place I'd love to wake up every morning. SHE DID IT! Laura still makes herself available if I have questions and still has my best interest at heart. You will be in good hands with Laura! PS: Laura, I honestly felt like I was your only client this whole time, then I saw all these reviews! Now I’m even more impressed with how you made everyone feel like I did! Great work :)

We worked with Laura to buy a new home in Vienna, VA. Laura was amazing to work with. She is extremely knowledgeable (particularly of Vienna and surrounding areas), dependable and trustworthy. She was patient with us throughout the entire process and was always available to answer all of our questions and talk through all of our concerns. Laura has also been an amazing resources for all of the logistics involved in moving and handling the repairs/updates in the new house.

We worked with Laura both to sell our home and to buy a new one. Laura is extremely knowledgeable and professional. She helped us to get our home in showing condition and everyone who looked at the house was extremely impressed. There are a few things that make Laura uniquely qualified to help buy and sell homes. First, she is able to assess a home after one quick walk through - she quickly identifies water damage or an old roof or other imperfections that make the house undesirable. Secondly, she is able to work the situation to make sure her clients get the best deal possible. In our case, the market was very hot while we were looking. Laura made sure we didn't "settle" for a house that wasn't right for us. When we did find the perfect house, she helped us win the house despite going up against multiple other offers. We feel very lucky to have had Laura as our realtor and would highly recommend her for both buying and selling your house.

Laura was great to work with and was super responsive to any question or need that we had. She has so much knowledge about the area and is always looking at things within the home that my husband and I did not take into consideration. Laura is extremely professional and makes it very easy to work with her on all aspects of the home buying process. Would recommend her to anyone for their home purchase!

There simply aren't enough good things to say about Laura. We've used her on both the buy-side and the sell-side, and she was amazing at both. While buying, she is responsive, knowledgeable, and low-key. You absolutely never feel pressured to buy with her-- in fact, she talked us down from properties we'd start considering because we got tired of looking that she knew weren't a good fit. She represented our interests through the full transaction, and you can 100% count on her integrity and honesty. Laura was equally exceptional on the sell side. She gave honest, forthright advice that helped us show the property in the best light. Her selling materials were beautiful and professional, and other agents enjoy working with her. I'm a crazy type A person, and Laura kept me calm through the process and handled every little detail. Every single thing that Laura recommended ended up being true and I can't imagine doing any of it without her. She's funny and a joy to be around to boot. Just hire her immediately -- you won't regret it!

Laura is an outstanding real estate agent. She is smart, kind, competent. She goes above and beyond. We have worked with a few realtors in the past few years due to various moves and she has hands down stood out as the best we could have hoped to work with. Thank you, Laura!

I recently sold my home of 22 years, and I could not have made it through the process with my sanity intact without Laura's help and expertise. From the first meeting all the way through closing, she was kind, honest, and above all made it clear from her actions, recommendations, and referrals that she is one of the top professionals in Northern Virginia. She helped me work through my list of to-dos and saved me thousands of dollars and countless hours I would have spent on tasks that would not have assisted the sale, while focusing on the top priorities that helped my home move quickly. She had excellent advice on market timing, staging, and pricing, and she marketed my home in a way that helped it sell very quickly and for well over asking price. She's a realtor you can trust to give you straight answers to difficult questions, and I cannot say enough great things about her.

I have been buying and selling homes since 1998. I wish I had known Laura Schwartz when I first started. I had the worst experience with my first agent. Since having Laura handle both my sales and buys, every part of the transaction has become easy. Laura has an eagle-eye on all aspects of the contract. That is vital. What was more important for me was to let go of any expectations of a crazy market and allow Laura to recommend the price as well as the smaller details and nuances of selling along the way. From staging to paint colors, I made sure to allow her to advise me. What did it get me? My house sold for the highest in the neighborhood, in spite of being smaller. The transactions were easier and considering I was out of town and unable to oversee each detail I felt like I had a trusted partner in selling my home. She was able to recommend contractors even after I bought my house that turned out to be more reliable than contractors I have used for years. When you hire Laura, you end up with a trusted friend who is honest about the market, the situation and advises you accordingly. She's not just in it to win it, she's in it for life. Having a life long agent that is always on top of the their game is more than I could have asked for. And I can guarantee you, I never would have made it through this process if it weren't for Laura.
