"Steve worked with us to find a new home in NVA with our relocation from MA. Steve provided tremendous value with his great insight and knowledge of a wide spectrum of towns / neighborhoods and we looked everywhere within 25 miles of Fairfax. He provided honest input / feedback on various homes over a 5 month process and processed numerous offers flawlessly - and provided great guidance throughout. We finally closed on a home in April 2013, after 5 offers and Steve remained patient and consistantly helpfuly throughout this arduous process. We have recommended Steve to another family have also completed a similar relocation and they share the same sentiments. Steve is a great guy and a true professional. I strongly recommend him to anyone requiring a realty assistance." - Tom

"Steve was really great to work with and made the purchase of my FIRST home a pleasurable experience. He was very helpful and informative throughout the process and most importantly honest. He seemed more interested in finding the right house for me than just selling a listing. He walked me through each step, answered all of my questions and addressed any concerns i had. He was very patient with me as we explored many different options and was always available to show me a listing or answer a call. He was very professional and will be my first call the next time I need to do anything with real estate." - Eddie

"We hired Steve Dunleavey to help us find an investment property in Northern Virginia to rent out and I am glad we found him. This was the 3rd home we bought so we had enough experience before meeting Steve to know good Real Estate agents from the bad ones. At our first meeting (after speaking with him over the phone) he came fully prepared with many listings in the area we were interested in. He listened to our needs and understood them. All his suggestions were on point and made our home search a breeze. He went out of his way to accommodate our schedule when visiting homes. He was never late to a meeting. He is very knowledgeable about the area in Northern Virginia. He helped us find a beautiful townhome in Ashburn. He not only assisted us during the home buying process but also managed to find a renter within weeks from closing. He took care of all paperwork until we got the renters to move into the house. Throughout the process, Steve was very professional, responsive and courteous. I just found a Real Estate agent for life. We are extremely pleased with his services. You will not be disappointed if you hire him for your next home buying needs."

★★★★★
"Good agent all around. Great negotiator. Recommend him highly. He's honest, works hard for his clients and is a straight shooter. If he doesn't know the answer he'll research it and get back to you rather than try to snow you with BS. "

About Steve

I’m Steve Dunleavey, a dedicated Realtor who sees every transaction as an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of my clients. How? By creating service-driven experiences and delivering superior results. Whether you’re looking to sell your family estate or purchase your first home, I’m here to make the process as stress-free and seamless as possible, and to guide you toward the best outcome for you.

After graduating from VCU with a degree in exercise science, I started my own business as a personal trainer and group exercise instructor. Over the years, I’ve trained hundreds of people for various reasons—from weight loss to marathon training, and beyond. I’ve even completed several marathons and triathlons myself, including century rides. Despite my success in personal training, I always knew deep down that real estate was where I meant to be. Real estate, like personal training, fuses my two passions: building relationships and creating results. Once I officially made the move in 2009, I never looked back.

Since then, my service-driven, results-focused approach has resulted in my distinction as a top producing agent from 2009-2016. After reaching that milestone, I pivoted to the world of broker management until 2020, when I decided to return to my one-on-one work with buyers and sellers, where I feel most at home.

As the father of two boys who are 14 and 16 and very active in football, baseball, basketball, and triathlon, you can often find me on a baseball or football field. In my spare time, I enjoy playing sports, exercising, sampling breweries, attending standup comedy shows, traveling the world, and watching documentaries.

Here are some (fun) facts you should know about me:

Food I can't live without- Guacamole
Favorite local restaurant- Coastal Flats
Go-to cocktail- Moscow Mule
Dream vacation spot- Hawaii
What I love most about my job- Working with first time home buyers
Secret weapon- Anticipate problems and solve them before they surface.
