"What should I look for when I choose a real estate agent?" is the most important question sellers and buyers should ask when they get ready to move.

It's easy to look for the marketing and track record of successful sales for any agent -- that's what is visible. And certainly Nellie's lengthy list of sales awards as a top agent with Long & Foster through a variety of real estate market conditions, and the significant presence of each of her listings on the Internet on more than 400 websites is impressive.

But that may not be what is most important to you when it's your house that is the focus of negotations. What is important is that she is fair and honest. That she keeps your best interests in front of her at all times. That she tells clients like you what you need to know, not what you want to hear. That she understands contract language and documentation, and the qualifications for different types of mortgages. And that she will work hard to understand your needs and the issues that are important to you.

And when you need Nellie, and her expertise, Nellie is the person who will be working with you directly. Not an assistant, not a coordinator. Nellie.

This "client first" philosophy has always been her approach, requiring her to continually improve her skills and ways of doing business. In addition, she has selectively adopted the latest technologies, enabling her to market property, schedule showings, and negotiate contracts more quickly and efficiently. These tools also help her extend the range of services provided to you as a client.

So when you decide that you'd like to buy or sell a home in areas such as Columbia, Ellicott City, Clarksville, Fulton, Glenwood, Woodbine, Elkridge, and Catonsville and beyond, please contact Nellie.

    Nellie is a true professional! She worked with me well before putting my house on the market to provide guidance and resources to prepare my home for sale. Once I was ready to sell, she lead me through the process in such a way as to make it easy for me. When it went on the market, there was great interest just as she had predicted. A contract that met all of my requirements was signed within 2 days. As we went through inspections and appraisals, she provided sound advice in how best to respond. At settlement, once again she demonstrated her skills, and it came off without a problem. I highly recommend her.

    We sold our house with Nellie and her team. Can't say enough about how helpful she was during the whole process. We were first time sellers, and Nellie provided the hand holding we required. She walked us through and guided us during the negotiation process with the buyers. Her knowledge of the market helped ease or many concerns of selling our house in the current market. She was on our side the whole time. We loved Nellie and would use her again.

    Nellie was our rock star! Knowledgeable, prepared, prompt, and understanding. Her organizational skills are unparallelled. Any questions we had were dealt with almost IMMEDIATELY! I really can't say enough about our experience with Nellie. She is the reason we have our new home.

    I just finished settling on a home with the assistance of Nellie Arrington. From the very beginning of the process, Nellie was thorough, professional, and effective. She took the time to have a meeting with me before we went out to look at houses to be sure she knew exactly what I was looking for. When we went to look, she was very honest and helpful with how each property would fit with me. When I decided to put an offer in on a house, she was extremely responsive and easy to get information from. She made the process very easy, and I could not have been happier.
