MARGARET WODA, MARYLAND REALTOR

Who is Margaret Woda?
 
Margaret WodaMy family had just moved into our 2nd new home in three years when I decided to get a real estate license. Anything I learned would surely come in handy for a military family subject to frequent relocation. The rest, as they say, is history... Real estate became the career of a lifetime!

Since then, I've helped thousands of people buy, sell, or rent a home - as their real estate agent, the manager or broker of real estate offices where I was responsible for training and overseeing hundreds of real estate agents, and as a partner in a real estate title company. Putting my experience to work for relocating military families is still a labor of love.

There's nothing more rewarding to me than the opportunity to walk side by side with a family into the next phase of their lives. I consider it a privilege to share this milestone, and disappointing them is simply not an option.

Former clients have said they wanted a real estate advisor and advocate to bring experience and technology to their real estate transaction. They must be satisfied, because they keep coming back to me when their housing needs change.

Margaret Woda has become a household name in Anne Arundel County and Bowie real estate circles, after thirty+ years in this business. But you may be looking for something more tangible, some real qualifications that help differentiate one agent from another in this tough market - evidence that the agent you choose is tech-savvy, as well as experienced in real estate. 

When it comes to technology, just check out my blogs here on ActiveRain and Localism, my website, my highly acclaimed community blog (FocusOnCrofton.com), online property fliers posted to several traditional and non-traditional real estate sites, market reports, real estate calculators and even my YouTube channel. You can communicate with me by cell phone, email, text message or video-conference. If a new innovation comes along, you can count on me to use it in my business.

CROFTON, BOWIE & DAVIDSONVILLE, MARYLAND

You won't find a lifestyle like this anywhere else in the world!

When you live in Anne Arundel County Maryland, you can play a round of golf in Crofton,
go sailing on the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis, and then attend a ballgame at Camden Yards in Baltimore
or a concert at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. - all in the same day!

Maryland home buyers, I will introduce you to the friendly suburban neighborhoods of Crofton, Bowie and Odenton, rural areas such as beautiful Davidsonville, and charming water-oriented communities near Annapolis and the Chesapeake Bay.  I will help you explore your financing options and refer you to other real estate professionals including mortgage lenders, home inspectors, and closing attorneys.  If you are in the "research stage" for your next home purchase, you may want to search the MLS at your own pace, request a complimentary Relocation Guide, or read the helpful articles in my Homebuyer Guide. When you are ready to make a move, I will be ready to help you.

Crofton townhome

 

Maryland home sellers will find easy access to recent home sale data on my website, and information in my Homeseller Guide about pricing, preparing your home for showing, creating curb appeal, and marketing your home. Talk to me to find out how the "BRAC Factor" could impact your home sale. A successful home sale involves a lot more than just finding a buyer, and we will work together to achieve your real estate goals. If you are relocating to another area - across town, across country, or anywhere in the world - I will find a well-qualified agent for you at your destination.

Military and civilian transferees to Fort Meade, Andrews AFB, and the U.S. Naval Academyvalue my first-hand experience as a Naval Officer's wife.  I've "been there, done that" when it comes to military moves, and I'm happy to help you with everything from buying a home to finding a local hairdresser or babysitter.  You will find several links of special interest to military families in my Crofton Area Resource Guide.  (NOTE: Personnel assigned to the Pentagon, Naval Station Anacostia, Marine Barracks, Walter Reed and other D.C.-Baltimore area military installations sometimes call Crofton home, too, since the commute is usually within 60 minutes.)

 

I have truly enjoyed the privilege of sharing this journey with my clients for many years - through buyers' markets and sellers' markets, inflation and recession, war and peace.  Yet I am still passionate about being the best possible adviser and advocate for my clients, from start to finish. 

Nothing would please me more than the opportunity to create a real estate success story for you now -
whether you are a home buyer, seller or referring agent.
