As a lifelong resident of Northern Virginia, Jay has spent his entire professional career in the Northern Virginia real estate market as both a licensed Realtor and licensed Appraiser.

Jay began his real estate career while still in college in 1991 working for one of the most respected real estate appraisers in Northern Virginia.  Becoming a full-time appraiser in 1993, Jay continued to build his reputation as a trusted professional with expertise in the challenging Northern Virginia real estate market.

In 2006, Jay also began working with a successful Re/Max team in Fairfax County as a licensed Realtor.  Because of his background in the appraisal industry, Jay brought a unique perspective to his real estate team.  As a professional appraiser, Jay regularly viewed and researched a larger number and variety of properties than the average realtor, and is an expert in home valuation.

In 2011, Jay joined the Living Realty team at Keller Williams in Ashburn.  Drawn to the high tech approach and focus on customer service, it was a natural fit that allowed him to bring his years of appraisal and real estate experience to a team that complimented his strengths.

In 2014, along with his business partners, Jay founded Living Realty, LLC. During this time, Jay focused his efforts on building a referral based business by nurturing long term relationships with his clients. By earning their trust, Jay has built a business model where over 98% of his business comes from personal referrals.

In 2022, Jay joined Samson Properties to take advantage of the excellent marketing and business development systems they have in place.

Jay lives in the South Riding area of Loudoun County with his wife and 3 kids.
