Hi! I’m Monique Van Blaricom and I help guide people in the DC Metro area through major home homeownership firsts!

Doing something for the first-time is always scary-- especially something involving the largest purchase of your life! Having a trusted advisor by your side for your major homeownership firsts is what I am here for! 

When I bought my first home just a few years ago, I had no idea what I was doing or what questions I should be asking. No one taught me how to buy or sell a home and it felt like I was expected to know a lot more than I did. No one should feel lost like that! I am here to provide expertise and guidance throughout the home buying and selling process to ensure every step of the way you feel supported and educated and never lost or unsure!  Ready to start the process and conquer another life first with ease? Click below and lets chat! 

Let 's do this!

Say goodbye to first-time nervousness and hello to achieving your real estate goals!
