- Description
- My work as an agent is stressful, exhilarating, and therapeutic (well, not usually for myself :-) ). I absolutely love what I'm doing. Let's talk about it.
About Us:
Kicked off the island: 
!!!!!!
I'm a long-time DC resident who first came to the Nation's Capital as a foreign correspondent. I fell in love with this complex city, stayed and first came about real estate out of curiosity for history and social issues. (That's a long story -- I'll keep it for a future blog.) I found out only later that I loved helping people find or sell houses in the best, smoothest and most exciting ways possible. (Yes, sometimes real estate transactions can be smooth!)
I'm familiar with all parts of town and with all aspects of life in DC and the Maryland suburbs. I have sold houses, condos and coops in all four quadrants of the city as well as all over of Montgomery County, MD, and in close-in Northern VA.

Areas of Expertise
Once a foreigner myself, I love working with international buyers.
I have successfully helped a great range of very different clients, from first-time home buyers to relocating families and seniors downsizing to a more comfortable place, from DC natives to people from all over the world.
Testimonials
Catarina was a god-send for my husband and I when we were looking to buy a home in the District in 2003. The market was challenging enough, but trying to find, successfully bid on, and purchase a home in DC from Paris, France was daunting. Catarina graciously accommodated our special needs, working around time differences and trips to DC. She even showed us homes during the blizzard of 2003 - one of the weekends we traveled to DC. Her knowledge of the market, wise counsel, and personal attention made a seemingly overwhelming task very manageable (and successful) for us. I would recommend her highly with no reservations.
-- Jill E. Robinson
Cati found us a house we loved, in the neighborhood we wanted, at a terrific price. Then she sold our previous house for more than we imagined possible. Every step of the way she was there to guide us and advise us. Buying and selling a house is supposed to be stressful -- but she made it fun. It was all done so quickly, we were sorry not to get to spend more time with her!
-- E. Y., Chevy Chase
Cati listened very closely to exactly what we needed. Coming from out of town, our expectations were clearly skewed. Nevertheless she guided us expertly through the appropriate and available choices, allowing us to make a wise (and happy) decision for ourselves.
-- I.C., Glover Park
Cati was very patient and resourceful during our search for a new home, emailing us listings every week and sacrificing her weekends and evenings to take us to look at properties. We ended up finding exactly what we were looking for, in the neighborhood we wanted, and, with Cati's help, at a price well below asking.
When it came to selling our property last year, Cati helped us extensively by providing comparisons for pricing, marketing our condo beautifully, and holding numerous open houses. With Cati's help and perseverance, our property sold for a terrific price in what was a very sluggish period for D.C. real estate.
