As a resident of Northern Virginia for over 40 years, I have seen the Route 50 corridor grow from horse farms & country stores to major shopping centers, office parks & master-planned communities. While attending George Mason University & working in a local pizza shop, I met Margaret Whiston, who ran a floral business in Vienna, Virginia, she became my mentor. I knew I wanted to own my own business & I always appreciated the art of gardening & arranging flowers. My business was soon launched & I concentrated on weddings & high-end corporate accounts in Washington, D.C. While running that company for 21 years, I learned the importance of consistency, customer satisfaction, great service & referrals.
While I was in the floral business, I also initiated a 501C3 organization to give back to my local community. The Stone Ridge 5K Race for Education was born out of the desire to bring together all of the different communities along the Route 50 corridor that make up the Loudoun County area known as Dulles South. In an effort to fund the academic and athletic needs of new schools most affected by the growth throughout Dulles South, I created a 5K Race & 1K Fun Run to raise money. From 2005-2016, the race has donated over $250,000 to the local schools.
With the race in high gear, I was approached by a number of home builders in the area about coming to work for them in sales. Since I have a huge interest in remodeling, construction, decorating & buying real estate for investment, I thought it sounded liked a perfect opportunity.
After working alongside some of the most respected builders in the nation for four years, I developed a knowledge base that assists my clients with choosing the right home site & structural options, understanding easements, keeping to a budget for a nicely appointed home inside and out, setting expectations on all the different appointments along the way that need to be kept. Having been the Sales Manager in new construction, I know what it is like to sit on the other side of the table & I know how the process works. I believe this is an advantage over other Real Estate agents that do not have this experience. The local builders pay the Realtors fees, those fees do not get passed on to the buyer, & even more, I offer a credit back to all my new construction buyers to help with their closing costs.
“Love what you do & you’ll never work a day in your life” is the best mindset I can think of that describes my outlook on my career. There is no better feeling than to see clients moving into their new homes, overjoyed that they chose the right one.
I feel that Prepping & Staging your home for sale is about the most important and sometimes overlooked thing in Real Estate. Make each room have sense of purpose, it does not take a lot of money, it does take a creative mind & a sense of style. I STAGE ALL MY LISTINGS FOR FREE, I have referrals from many happy clients that will definitely point out that if it weren’t for the staging & designing their homes for their potential buyer, their home may not have sold for top dollar and so fast.

Lisa Smith did an OUTSTANDING job with the sale of our house in Lenah Run, Aldie VA!!! From the moment we met her, we had no doubts that she was perfect fit for us. Lisa was attentive, kind, professional, empathetic and overall exceptional! Lisa staged our home and it was beautiful, elegant, and sophisticated. Throughout the process, she visited our home numerous times for staging, to provide us guidance, feedback and oftentimes, simply to check in. She knows the market so well, yet she took the time to hand write very detailed comparisons of similar homes in the neighborhood, ensuring that we were all in agreement with the sale price. She was also honest enough to talk through best and worst case scenarios. Lisa was involved in all aspects of the sale, until the closing date. Lisa Smith gifted us a stress free process and made the sale of our home a memorable and beautiful experience for our little family. We 100% recommend Lisa!

Lisa does it all!! I’ve used Lisa to both buy and sell homes and she makes the process a breeze. She worked with me to find a home that was within my budget AND checked all of my boxes. She came prepared to every listing with all the facts on the home so that I could make an informed decision, and was quick to turnaround any questions I had. On top of buying and selling, Lisa also has great recommendations on trusted professionals for any home updates you may need prior to buying or selling. Working with Lisa means you’re in the best hands!

Look no further as you've found your agent. We first stumbled upon Lisa organically at an open house. Immediately she had a warm and genuine energy. She wasn't our realtor at the time but after having a conversation with her and getting her honest solid advice we knew she was the real deal. We were first time home buyers and she was there to walk us through the whole process. She was informative, kind, and super prompt (she replies with lightning speed). Never did we ever feel pressured to make any fast decision she was always diligent and looking out for our best interest. She even helped us negotiate some fixes to our home after purchase.Honestly, we cannot say enough good things about Lisa! If you're look for someone who knows the local industry and is a great person overall, Lisa is your women! There is no one who could’ve done a better job guiding us on our first home purchase.Seriously, give her a call!

There are no words to describe how amazing Lisa Smith is and how great she is at what she does. I will be forever grateful for the hard work she put in to get my home ready to sell. If you want someone who knows the market, does her homework, is with you every step of the way, and literally champions for you, she is who you need on your team through the difficult process of selling or even buying your home. She makes it look and feel easy. She went above and beyond to get my home ready for sale. I don't know how I would have managed without her. If you're looking for the best agent out there, look no further than Lisa Smith!

Lisa and Laura were both outstanding to work with and even more amazing as a team. They totally transformed our home through staging. It was a jaw dropping improvement that impacted the level of interest in our home. The number of offers and the speed to contract were a sign of their capabilities. They are simply by far the best realtors I’ve ever worked with. I’ll consider them life long friends.

Lisa did an outstanding job from the first time we met until the closing was completed. Her knowledge of the local market was past outstanding. She was prompt with everything that she provided me. We had an issue with our first potential buyer and she had a second buyer lined up within a day. Highly highly recommend. I’d give Lisa 10 stars if that was an option!
