She has a lot of high-end listings in McLean and Great Falls, as do Casey Margenau and Penny Yerks. Jennifer Harper Thornett at Washington Fine Properties is younger and probably doesn't have as many high-end listings, but is pleasant to work with (she was the seller's agent when we bought in McLean). I think of Lillian Jorgenson as being the main realtor for high-end properties in Vienna, which is probably too far out here, but she works incredibly hard and is very upbeat. Guess that's what you need to do if you want to be a realtor. |

| Jud Burke (VA, DC) www.judburke.com, if what your boss and her husband really prefers is someone judged the "very best realtor" he's ever worked with, who would "personally" do all the related discovery and contract processing (ie not hand off the work to subordinates), and be available to work with them, at any/all times. |

Her last name is Prendergast, not Prenderfast. I have used her twice, both times over 1.5 M. If you are buying a house, she is excellent, very knowledgeable about Mclean neighborhoods. On the other hand if you are selling a house... she is nothing special IMO. |

Check out Traci Mitchell-Austin. She only does a few clients at a time. She's worked with Middle Eastern royalty and people like that. She is VERY low key and a great realtor. Her clients like that she is under the radar.

I think they are "looking" for a "realtor" who knows how to use "quotation marks." |

+1 3 million dollar home on that salary, must be independently wealthy like the rest of them. |

odd that your boss can't figure this one out himself, as he and high profile wife should already have contacts

| Why not suggest that the boss's wife continue to live in her home state/district and stay in touch with the people who elected her to represent them? are they no longer useful after the election? Many first term Congresspeople live out of a suitcase in DC. |

I think most normal agents and high end agents are equally good and bad. The high end agents think their farts don't stink and wear designer clothes....
Many successful agents aren't actually good at brokering real estate, but they are excellent at projecting an image. I'd look for actual qualifications as opposed to prior selling history. Even if the person has sold a hundred homes, they may have been awful at doing it. Once buyers and sellers get locked in with an agent, they go along for the ride, good or bad. |
