A
quartet of high-stakes real estate agents has made a strategic move, switching broker affiliations to TTR Sotheby's after a brief stint with Washington Fine Properties. The team, comprising Robert Hryniewicki, Christopher Leary, Adam Rackliffe, and Micah Smith, boasts an impressive track record in the D.C. region, having sold 69 multimillion-dollar properties last year at an average price of $3 million.

    Their expertise lies in navigating complex sales, such as transforming historic properties in Georgetown or showcasing sprawling estates in McLean, Virginia. However, a crucial aspect of attracting buyers remains consistent across all residential sales: staging. Empty rooms can make a home appear smaller and less appealing to potential buyers.

    Hryniewicki notes that vacant spaces can be deceiving, with even spacious rooms appearing cramped without furniture. To mitigate this, sellers often opt for staged showings, which can help buyers envision themselves in the space. Moreover, high-end properties like mansions typically require pre-approval and registration forms to verify a buyer's financial capability before granting access.

    HRLS Partners' impressive sales history includes a lifetime volume of $2.42 billion in D.C.-area residential sales, with nearly 2,300 transactions closed. One notable sale stands out: The Cove, a 2,000-acre estate in Virginia Hunt Country that sold for $18.75 million last year. This transaction marked the most expensive sale in the region since 2022.

    The team's experience and expertise have earned them a reputation as top players in the D.C. real estate market. With their move to TTR Sotheby's, they're poised to continue delivering exceptional results for their clients.
