About Lorraine
Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll make, so having someone you trust matters.
I work with buyers and sellers throughout Washington, DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia, providing honest advice, careful guidance and personal service from start to finish. Living in historic Georgetown since 2016 has given me a real appreciation for its unique character and for the many different communities across the wider Washington region.
Because Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia are so closely connected, buyers often benefit from considering opportunities across all three areas. I enjoy helping clients compare neighbourhoods, lifestyles and practical considerations so they can find the right home, not just the right house.
Before moving into real estate, I worked as a teacher, specialist dyslexia practitioner, diagnostic assessor and literacy consultant. That experience taught me how to listen carefully, explain complicated information clearly and give people the confidence to make important decisions.
Having also moved many times myself, including more than 21 years as part of a UK service family community, I understand both the practical and emotional challenges of relocating. I bring that experience to my work with buyers and sellers, guiding them with honesty, care and close personal attention throughout the process.Before moving into real estate, I spent many years working in education. Having also moved many times myself, including more than 21 years as part of a UK service family community, I understand both the practical and emotional aspects of relocating. I believe in taking the time to listen, answer questions and guide my clients with honesty, care and professionalism.

Lorraine's Reviews
2/5/24John Yasuda
Lorraine was an absolute first-class agent. It is always wonderful to have a realtor who is an advocate for you. Our particular deal was rather tricky, and Lorraine helped us navigate us through the thick of it. She's always ready to go the extra mile (and then some)!
