Dana helped me sell my home and buy a home. Dana understood what I needed with all the nuances. She was an amazing adviser through this process. She was also delightful to work with and patient. Thanks to Dana's expertise and true professionalism, the negotiation process for both buying and selling went extremely smoothly.
I am one happy client and I recommend Dana to others. Whether you are moving from overseas or just a few blocks away, you will want a real estate consultant with local knowledge, professionalism of the highest standards, and strong negotiating skills to represent your interests and be your guide. This is what we do.

Working with Dana was an absolute delight; she and her staff were able to book appointments quickly and efficiently. Dana was able to answer a lot of my questions and patiently walk me through the process and other issues related to first time home-buying. Dana is very thoughtful and responsive, even after business hours, which is critical in a fast moving market. I would recommend Dana to anyone who is looking for a home in the DMV area.

Dana helped us close on a house we absolutely love in a tough market when we had limited means. She put her experience, expertise and knowledge to use to help us put together the most competitive offer, and exercised her impeccable negotiating skills to help us seal the deal. She gave us excellent advice and guidance every step of the way and responded to all of our questions and inquiries with lightning speed. In the current market, you need a true professional like Dana going to bat for you. She comes highly, highly recommended.

Dana and her associate Michelle are a dream team. We had a bit of a complicated situation because our purchase was part of a 1031 exchange so we had a limited time period to buy a house. They patiently showed us a number of homes and Dana was very skilled at helping us negotiate and win a "bidding war" for the house we loved. Also both she and Michelle are lovely people and a pleasure to work with. They were available whenever we needed to talk and highly responsive to our needs. I would definitely recommend them to buyers and sellers.

We just moved here from Dallas, TX and thankfully we found Dana and her team. Every step of the way Dana provided exceptional service. She's very pleasant to work with, professional, proactive and responsive to all emails and phone calls. Michelle, who is part of her team, always arrived on time for showings, was knowledgeable about the homes and areas, and was also very great to work with. And lastly, another great part of working with Dana is her extended team. She recommended Pat Bowman to help with the mortgage, who I would now highly recommend. Rose did our inspection and was incredible, and

Dana was simply the best, available and always responsive. She professionally assessed possible enhancements to the property, assisted in owner determining a competitive sales price, utilized the most effecient media outlets and open houses to reach multiple markets, and oversaw all needed paperwork through closing. We saw a quick and successful sale.

Dana was terrific- she helped us with the final phases of preparing our home to show at its best, arranged for excellent photos and staging and then maximized marketing to attract a large pool of prospective buyers. Dana's expertise and accessibility was essential for the final phases of our sale as we had moved out of the area. We would recommend Dana Scanlon to anyone asking us for a real estate referral!

Dana and her team helped us find our first home. We knew nothing about the process in the beginning. Dana took the time to explain us the whole process in details. She answered all our questions, was always responsive and pro-active. Her team was always really responsive and made arrangement for us to visit the houses we wanted to see ASAP. Once we found the house we wanted, Dana wrote the contract and helped us successfully negotiating the offer. We developed a nice and solid relationship during the whole process and we're really happy of her knowledge and professionalism. I'd definitely recommend

Dana has been an outstanding real estate mentor for our project that started... 10 years ago when we first met her at a workshop she organized for first-time home buyers! We recently reconnected and bought our new place in less than 5 months. She listened to our needs as international clients, pointed us to specific listings, coordinated visits with Michelle (who was always on time too) and guided us through the entire process. We highly recommend Dana Scanlon as your trustful and patient partner in your real-estate projects. Thank you again Dana!
