Fairfax Station Home Selected as the Washington Post’s “House Of The Week”

I am so very happy that the Washington Post’s Real Estate section decided to use one of my listings as their House of the Week. Here is a link to The Washington Post article. The featured home is in the equestrian community of The English Hills Estate in Fairfax Station, which is in Fairfax County Virginia.

You can directly link to 10901 Henderson Rd as a “Featured Listing” and also see the posted video on YouTube.

I am thrilled to be selected for a several reasons.

  1. First and foremost, my sellers are getting their home seen by a far larger group of people than I could provide by my marketing efforts alone and who doesn’t love free advertising?
  2. It introduces me to that same group of people who, if I’m lucky, will read what other people think about me and hopefully, contact  me themselves for their home buying and selling needs.
  3. Finally, I place a huge amount of importance on driving people to this website for promotion of my clients homes and myself and I do everything I can to optimize my website placement on search engines. This Washington Post honor occurred yesterday and my website traffic has increased by more than 25 times the normal number after only one day.

So, thank you for checking out this grand and unique home in Fairfax Station, Virginia. If you are considering a move to our area, let me know and I will happily set up a private showing for you. While you’re on this site, feel free to search for everything in Fairfax Station or just create your own search from scratch. Registration is never required and the only time you’ll be asked for information is if you want me to know where to send something like Email Alerts which will automatically email new listings to you every day.
