If your home isn’t selling, now’s the time to adjust your pricing, improve the condition, and upgrade your marketing before summer interest fades.
Home prices are rising and inventory is tight—find out what that means if you’re planning to buy or sell in the DMV this summer.
Buyers are pickier than ever, so you need to prep, price, and present your home to maximize offers. Start by making small repairs, then depersonalize and deep clean.
You’re not just buying or selling a house. You’re making one of the most important decisions of your life, and facing that decision by yourself might feel overwhelming. As a seller, you might be unsure how to price your home, what upgrades to make, or how to find a realtor you can actually trust. As buyer, you may be feeling pressure to make a move before you’re ready, worried about choosing the wrong home, or struggling to understand financing. It’s only natural to feel that way; many people feel lost in the process, and that’s exactly where we come in.
I’m Troy Patterson, and I’ve helped hundreds of buyers, sellers, and investors across the DMV navigate complex real estate decisions for nearly two decades. With a background in nonprofit leadership and deep ties to this community, I bring both strategic insight and a commitment to service that runs deep.
At The Spera Group, we start with you. We take time to understand your goals, your concerns, and the life you’re trying to build. Then, we create a tailored plan around your timeline, your budget, and your future. Our approach isn’t about pressure or quick wins. It’s about providing clear, honest guidance so you feel confident every step of the way. You’ll get expert negotiation to protect your bottom line, marketing that gets your property in front of the right people, and a team that communicates every detail so nothing gets missed. We also offer access to trusted vendors and resources to make your move easier and more cost-effective.
You deserve more than a transaction—you deserve someone who treats your goals like their own. If you’re ready to talk about your next step, book a 1-on-1 strategy call, explore our free valuation and MLS search tools, or just reach out with your questions. We’re here, and we’d be honored to help you.
