OP, are you looking in MD or in VA? And then, in what areas? No serious agent would claim to know both states.

OP here. One of us works in MD and the other in VA. So we wanted to leave it open for both states. How do most handle this situation do they just pick one state in go with it? We are looking in Vienna/Tysons and Rockville. Thanks again.

I used Eleanor Balaban of Long and Foster in Bethesda and then referred her to two friends who bought places in the last few years. She was great about exhaustively showing places to the one friend who was interested in a wide range of places in the metro area. And quick to move on deals for the other who knew the area they wanted to live in and needed to act speedily with an offer.

To the posters who used Judy Cranford, was she your actual agent or someone form her team?

I'm a huge fan of Mitch Story with Long and Foster. A good guy through-and-through, dedicated, hard-working, and fun to boot. Bought two houses with him and his partner Christy. We still keep in touch!

In Maryland, I recommend Tammy Thomas. Love her. Love, love, love her. Just bought a house in april with her as our buyer's agent and cannot say enough good things about her. There was a lot of rigamarole with the sellers over some things they didn't disclose and Tammy was extremely detail-oriented in getting everything worked out.
