The LoCo Real Estate Team
Thanks for stopping by! We hope you enjoy hearing about Loudoun County and real estate in a non-corporate sort of way. We are Heather and Michael Elias, and we got our start in real estate back in 2004. Since then, we've had the pleasure of helping hundreds of people buy and/or sell homes in Northern Virginia.

We have lived in Loudoun County since 1999, moving here for Mike to take the PGA Head Golf Professional job at Westpark Golf Club. We've lived in Sterling, Ashburn, and Leesburg, before finally settling in Purcellville in 2004, building a new construction home in the Village Case neighborhood. We love Loudoun County and relish being unofficial ambassadors to this beautiful place we call home.

We are Heather and Michael Elias. We started our real estate team back in 2004, and launched this site in 2007 to share information about life and real estate in Loudoun County. Since then, the site has grown to include the premiere home search experience for Northern Virginia, along with a ton of buying and selling resources.
We can guide you through the home buying process. We are committed to fast, professional, courteous and personal service to help you understand and feel at ease throughout the home buying process. Please do not submit any confidential information. This will be shared with both Atlantic Coast Mortgage and LoCoMusings | Century 21 Redwood Realty.
The LoCo Real Estate team was founded in 2004, and we have taken pride in being 'unofficial ambassadors' for Loudoun County from the start. Since 1999, we've lived in Sterling, Ashburn, Leesburg, and finally Purcellville. We've raised four children here and helped countless clients buy and sell homes here.
Stress Free Transaction We used Mike for the sale of our old home and purchase of our new home. First, Mike is very much a family man with a family business. His wife is also a realtor (runs the real estate blog Loco Musings) and together they are a power couple when it comes to.

I can never thank both Mike and Heather enough for their kindness With my wife's passing I wanted to get away from the area where she had suffered so much, away from the roads we had driven week in, week out to see doctors and undergo treatments and get to a place where we had.Michael and Heather Elias are full time real estate professionals and licensed REALTORS at Century 21 Redwood Realty.
Aldie is an historic town tucked into a gap between Catoctin Mountain and Bull Run Mountain in the southeastern corner of Loudoun County. The area is best known for its' original grist mill, the only one in Virginia with twin overshot waterwheels. The mill was first built in 1785, and the village grew around it.

If you’re in the market for a home in Loudoun, Mike and Heather are your perfect match! Mike helped us purchase our first and current home in Leesburg in February of 2017. We couldn’t have asked for an easier process- it was truly seamless.
But here is what separates Mike and Heather from the other Realtors/Agents in the area: they keep up with us.... even to this day! We have gone back to Mike and Heather for everything from ‘we need a plumber to take a look at this’ to landscaping recommendations, to painters, to contractors- even to “hey come check out our home and let us know what

I was an out of state client trying to sell a second home and Mike and the team there could not have done any better for us. We faced a very very challenging buyer and navigated through many unforeseen circumstances, but these guys were awesome helping me navigate through every scenario we encountered. They were honest and forthcoming from the very beginning, and I would do business with them again tomorrow if I had another house to sell!

Highly recommend!
Mike delivered with professional service and personal care throughout the entire process, from seeing properties — even several zip codes away — to negotiating and navigating the paperwork. A++

Heather helped us find our home back in 2007. She was AWESOME. Took the time to listen to what we were looking for and what our future plans were. We had our own list of homes we wanted to see but based on our feedback she was able to find a house that we hadn't even considered and it fit us perfectly. We ended up buying her pick over all of ours. We were treated with kindness and patience throughout the entire experience . It was our first time buying so there was TONS of questions from us and she guided us deftly through all of it. We're so glad we found her and recommend her to anyone who is

Polite. Responsive. Knowledgeable. True masters of their craft. Mike assisted my wife and me with our first home purchase in 2016. We now live in a cozy townhouse in South Riding - and we love it! Mike and Heather's dedication to their clients, and their selfless and caring personalities really makes them worth their weight in gold. I highly recommend Mike and Heather to anyone looking to buy or sell their home in Northern Virginia!

For everything Loudoun County real estate related Michael and Heather Elias MUST be your go to source! The care and expertise they give each and every client is hands down the best. They live and breath their community and provide a service unmatched by most in this world.
If you're a golfer, I would suggest you reach out to Michael to find out about all the best courses in the area. Maybe if you're lucky enough, you might get to play a round with him!

We bought a house from Heather over 10 years ago and could not have had a more knowledgeable realtor. The Elias team is one of the best!
