"Herb is the best of the best. I went into selling our home with a lot of stress and worry about it sitting on the market for a long time. With little kids at home, keeping my house clean for showings was almost impossible and accommodating every request was an added difficulty. Herb couldn't have made the process easier. He helped us focus our efforts where it mattered most (in terms of prepping our house for sale), and eased our concerns along the way. His knowledge of the area and the market saved us a lot of unnecessary work and made the selling process as smooth as possible. Due to his expertise and know-how, we had multiple offers and ended up selling above the asking price. Herb is not your average agent. He is someone you can put your full trust in to get you the best."

"A neighbor friend referred us to Herbert. He was awesome. Despite the fact that he had many clients, he always responded to every inquiry immediately and made us feel like we were his only clients. He went above and beyond helping prepare our house for sale. This was an emotionally difficult sale of my wife's family home after her mom passed. Herbert was so understanding and so caring -- I've never seen anything like it. His rate was below the market standard and he managed to negotiate a price above what we asked. Herbert is a man of his word with impeccable integrity. I would recommend him to anyone. We will only use Herbert going forward for our realtor needs. Dan. E" - Dan E.

"Herbert provided the best experience I have had with a real estate agent, ever. Indeed I don't see how his rating could be any higher than it is. In terms of being honest, courteous, professional, knowledgeable, and ethical, Herbert is outstanding. He helped me to sell my home and negotiated with me through a challenging process. Whenever we met a bump on the road, Herbert always kept his cool. Also, Herbert has the ability to see both sides of the selling process, the seller's side and the buyer's side. So he is always fair. Thanks Herbert. It was a pleasure working with you!" - Bob C.

"Herb was great from start to finish. He rolled up his sleeves (literally) to help us with everything we needed to get done to sell our house, fast. We highly recommend Herb if you're looking for someone who will listen to you, make every effort to get things just right, and put your satisfaction first. Thank you, Herb!" - Todd P.

"Herbert Riggs was very accommodating and sharp-witted in guiding us through the buying process. He broke down the entire process into a series of manageable steps compounded to the purchase of our house in Cameron Station, Alexandria. Through the series of daily emails and text messages, our trust in Herbert eventually reached a level where my wife and I were comfortable making a house buying commitment with his guidance. Herbert made himself readily available and provided updates regularly; his knowledge of the marketplace was impressive as he tailored showings to our preferences: he would let us know whenever a new house that met our requirements came into the market so that we would all visit and compare the pros and cons. Herbert was not pushy, he openly advised us to forgo houses that piqued our interests and yet required compromises that we didn’t have to deal with. Herbert's recommendations of other professionals you have to deal with in a home buying process were excellent. Frankly, we highly recommend Herbert for his honesty, integrity, and excellence. His actions match his words!" - David P.

About Herbert

At Riggs & Co., we believe real estate is more than transactions—it’s about people, relationships, and the homes where life’s most cherished moments unfold. As Principal, I take immense pride in leading an award-winning team built on service where ā€œyou firstā€ isn’t just a motto; it’s the foundation of everything we do.

We recognize that your home is more than just an asset—it’s where families grow, traditions take root, and dreams are realized. That’s why we approach every client’s journey with genuine care, ensuring we deeply understand your values, lifestyle, and long-term goals. Together, we craft a personalized strategy designed to make your buying or selling experience both seamless and successful.

As trusted fiduciaries, we always put our clients first, delivering results with integrity, innovation, and an unrelenting dedication to excellence. Our reputation speaks for itself—our clients return to us time and again, confident in our ability to exceed expectations.

With over 17 years of expertise spanning law, finance, and negotiation, I bring a uniquely comprehensive perspective to every transaction. Holding a BA and JD from Brigham Young University, an MS in Finance from Johns Hopkins University, and a Negotiation Certificate from Harvard, I leverage this extensive knowledge to ensure our clients negotiate from a position of strength, security, and confidence. My ability to simplify complex issues and offer strategic, results-driven guidance empowers clients to make informed decisions with clarity.

With over $400 Million in sales, I am honored to be recognized among America’s Best Agents by Real Trends and The Wall Street Journal, ranking in the top 1.5% of agents nationwide and the top 1% in Virginia. I have also been named a Top Producing Agent by Washingtonian and Northern Virginia Magazine from 2018–2025 and am a proud member of the NVAR Diamond Club and Top Agent Network.

Many of our clients serve in government roles, and we are privileged to assist those relocating due to transfers. We frequently receive referrals from past clients within the FBI, USPTO, U.S. Armed Forces, and the Department of Defense, a testament to the trust we’ve built over the years.

At Riggs & Co., we don’t just help you buy or sell a home—we guide you through a tailored, strategic, and highly personalized experience designed for your success.

Let’s build something extraordinary together.
