For nearly 10 years, Susan Fitzgerald has been associated with the Old Town Alexandria, Virginia office of Weichert, Realtors. Susan's real estate transactions have consistently placed her in the top 5% nationally of all realtors. Susan's goal is to serve, guide, and advise her clients in fulfilling their financial and home ownership dreams.

 "I love working with people and I have always loved houses. That is why I became a realtor. I base my business on the philosophy that giving is the same as receiving." When Susan first meets with a potential client, she explains the way she conducts her real estate business. "Real estate is my full time profession and I feel it is important for customers to have a good match with the agent they choose. The purchase or sale of a home is an emotional process because it is one of the most expensive investments you'll ever make. Your agent must understand your needs, listen to you, ask questions, and offer guidance accordingly. I strive to make all transactions a win-win for all parties involved."

Your realtor is your strongest asset in buying or selling your home. The complex transaction of buying or selling a home presents real challenges without the assistance of a professional realtor. A former teacher, Susan Fitzgerald strongly believes in the importance of educating her clients on the process. As soon as she starts working with her clients, she empowers them with the knowledge, guidance, advice, and support that enable them to make educated choices. Susan is a seasoned agent who thoroughly understands the lengthy regional contract and its complexities and she possesses strong negotiating skills. She stays updated on the continually changing real estate information of pricing, interest rates, and much more. "Our Old Town Alexandria Weichert, Realtors office provides its agents a great deal of support that translates into the best customer service possible for my clients."

As an Accredited Staging Professional, Susan creates a beautiful first impression that resonates with buyers and sellers alike. Using her strong landscaping and decorating skills, she stages her listings so that visitors often comment on the serenity and beauty of the home. As a result, her properties sell more quickly and easily. Susan's staging advice is just one of the many services she offers to her sellers.
