About Ellen McRae

Buying or selling a home is often the largest financial transaction people make. Therefore, it is important that you choose an agent to represent you who understands what you want and has the experience to help you achieve those goals. We have worked with hundreds of clients, offering each one individual attention and professional expertise. In all price ranges, in all types of homes, we can be relied upon to consider our clients' needs and interests above all else. For us, success is measured not in monetary terms or the number of transactions, but in the satisfaction of the clients we serve. We enjoy a high degree of approval, as evidenced by the number of repeat customers and referrals we receive from past clients. We serve our clients with diligence, honesty, responsiveness and the most advanced technology available. We work with buyers and sellers in most price ranges advising them on the complicated process of buying and selling. We'll answer all your questions and help you ask others. We are full-time Realtors with Re/Max Allegiance and have been in real estate a combined 35 years. We've lived in the Washington, DC area since 1984 and know the area very well, enabling us to offer helpful advice about the entire region. When you choose to work with us, you get direct access with no layers of assistants to go through. We live in Falls Church, VA with our three children (an numerous pets!) where we are active in Boy Scouts, PTA, the high school booster association and numerous charitable and social activities.

Dave Did an outstanding job working with me on the purchase of my home and guiding me through the rigorous process of home buying plus the closing elements. His persistence and directions provided valuable guidance in seeing the purchase process through to completion and I have no doubt he can do the same for you.

Ellen has been my go to real estate agent for the past 25 years. I've worked with her multiple times and have come to rely on her for my home buying/selling needs. I recently sold my home. Ellen walked me through the process, including how best to clear out and stage my home. She expertly managed the open houses and showings and we got an offer at list price. When the buyer's funding fell through, Ellen saved the day! She tapped her network and connected the buyer to another funder. Because of her resourcefulness, we closed last week. Ellen knows the business and is my trusted agent. I highly recommend her to anyone in the market.

Ellen did an excellent job of assisting us in the purchase of our new home. From the beginning of our search, she was able to understand exactly what we were looking for and found us the PERFECT condo for our forever home.

You will not find anyone in Northern Virginia who understands the real estate market or the process of buying a home better than Ellen. She was always available, worked hard to help us understand the listings, and was there for us every step of the way when we made an offer and ended up closing on an incredible house. She is a strong negotiator as well -- exactly the kind of person you want on your side. We really couldn't have done it without her. Highly recommend -- 10/10.

Ellen was very responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful navigating through the process. I highly recommend Ellen for buying and selling needs. Ellen was always available to answer questions and take a quick phone call to explain a process or options moving forward.
