About Lena

As a licensed real estate professional with Compass, I bring nearly a decade of experience helping buyers, sellers, and investors navigate the ever-evolving DC, Maryland, and Virginia real estate market. Born in DC, raised in Montgomery County, Maryland, and now living in Northern Virginia, I have a deep-rooted understanding of the entire DMV region. My intimate knowledge of neighborhoods, market trends, and investment opportunities gives my clients a strategic advantage—whether they’re finding their dream home, selling for top dollar, or expanding their real estate portfolio.

Tailored Service & Expert Negotiation

I believe real estate isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience. Every client has unique needs, and my approach is designed to be custom, stress-free, and results-driven. With sharp negotiation skills, strategic marketing, and a deep understanding of market analytics, I ensure my clients get the best possible outcome. Over the past two years, I’ve helped buyers secure homes 2.3% below list price on average, while my sellers have achieved 1.4% over list price—proving that having the right advocate in your corner makes all the difference.

Market Expertise & Investment Insight

With a background in property management and investment strategy, I offer clients more than just transactional support—I provide data-driven insights on market value, neighborhood trends, and long-term investment potential. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, seasoned investor, or looking to sell in today’s dynamic market, I’m here to guide you through the process with expertise, transparency, and a commitment to your success.

Relocation & Referral Network

My support goes beyond the DMV. If you’re moving across the country or even internationally, I can connect you with a trusted real estate professional in your new city—at no cost to you. Through Compass’s extensive network and global partnerships, I’ll ensure you’re paired with an agent who provides the same level of care and expertise I’m known for. I also stay involved throughout the process to make sure your transition is as smooth as possible. Wherever life takes you, I’m here to help.

Beyond Real Estate

When I’m not helping clients achieve their real estate goals, you’ll find me on the golf course, in a yoga class, or riding my Peloton. I also love exploring DC’s incredible food scene over a great glass of red wine—so if you ever need a restaurant recommendation, I’ve got you covered!

If you’re thinking about buying, selling, or investing, let’s connect—I’d love to help make your next move a smooth and rewarding experience.
