A lot comes into play being a real estate agent.

 

Besides experience and market knowledge, patience is huge, as is intuition to really know what a client wants. Courtney couples these qualities with strong project management skills to make the process smooth and efficient, and savvy negotiating that gets the best price and terms.  It’s no wonder clients love working with her, knowing she is there to serve in any capacity.

“I have the ability to drive the real estate process and bring a transaction to close, with hard work and no shortage of humor along the way. If we’re not having a little fun, especially during the home search, something is wrong. I like developing a real friendship with my clients while educating them openly and honestly on what they need to know. I can’t see doing it any other way.”

A licensed Virginia real estate sales agent associated with McEnearney since 2012, Courtney loves working with buyers in the Alexandria area, exploring neighborhoods and homes filtering down to what best serves their wants, needs and budget. In this competitive marketplace, she’s right in there with them holding their hand and answering questions all along the way.  When representing sellers, Courtney is all in managing A to Z, from preparing the home for sale with recommended updates to managing contractors, staging & marketing, contract negotiations & finally closing.
 

Work experience 

Courtney spent over two decades in the fundraising and software arena working with leading national and international non-profits in a sales, marketing, project management and consulting capacity. Courtney also consulted at National Public Radio (NPR), managing senior level teams in an extensive restructure and development of new fundraising practices. Given her work experience, selling real estate couldn’t be a better fit.

 

History

Raised in Chicago’s North Shore, Courtney graduated with a BA in Sociology from California State University, Long Beach, focusing on statistics and computer programming. After 20 years living in the Boston area, her consulting services brought her to the DC area. Once she discovered Old Town, with its architecture and history harkening back to New England, she knew she was home.

 

Volunteering 

Courtney has volunteered as a reading tutor for Wright to Read in Alexandria, VA for the past 5 yrs.  Having been paired with the same student for 3 years now, she says “it’s amazing how the tutoring relationship can transition into such a meaningful friendship. That’s when real progress is made.”

" We had been looking in Old Town and just couldn’t find anything. One day, we stopped by an open house which Courtney was showing. It wasn’t the right house for us but we quickly realized Courtney was the right realtor for us- we appreciated her directness and honesty. I rang her the next day to ask her if she’d help us find a house. She said she would. We saw 4 properties with her, all of which had been pre-qualified by Courtney for our taste and budget. #4 was an immediate winner. Courtney’s superb communication and negotiating skills got us through a tricky negotiation. We are thrilled with our new home. Courtney is now not only our realtor but also a friend. "

– Annie

" Exceeded our Expectations - Professional, Very Prompt, Flexible and Customer Service Oriented. From our 1st meeting w/Courtney, we were thrilled to work with her - her positive attitude & spirit carried the day!!"

– Tiffany & Jim

" We could not have asked for a better agent and have used Courtney to sell two homes & buy a third. Each experience exceeded our expectations. We did not know a great deal about the selling & buying process and Courtney was extremely patient and responsive to all of our questions and frequent appointments. She went above and beyond what we expected of an agent and worked extremely hard. She is professional, diligent and persistent. I highly recommend working with her"

– Anna

" Courtney did a great job both helping us buy a home and sell our present one. She helped stage our house in a way that allowed it to sell in only 5 days on the market. She did a very nice job for us."

– Tracey & Bob

" My husband and I were moving to the Northern Virginia area and needed to find a rental home quickly that met our requirements. Courtney DeVries was able to work around our schedules. She was very friendly and professional. She did a great job helping us understand the whole process and as well as what each rental property offered. Once we made a selection, Courtney helped us submit all the required paperwork and ensured that the renter's realtor company understood that we were working on a time crunch. She continued to check in with us until we heard back from the renter's realtor company that our application was accepted. Courtney's help and guidance made the whole experience run smoothly."

– Sarah

" Courtney was excellent. She did everything she had to in order to sell my condo & secure my new home & was direct & honest when she needed to be. "

– Meredith

" Thanks again for all of your help with our apartment search. You seriously made all of the difference for us with your extended support. We really appreciate it. "
