Margarita Staudt

Broker-in-Charge

In 2011 I decided to open my own brokerage again to have the flexibility of offering individual tailored real estate services.

I have been selling real estate since 1992.  I received a B.A. in Foreign Languages from George Mason University, as well as several real estate designations.

ABR, CRS, GRI, C-CRE

Real Estate Designations

ABR: Accredited Buyer Representative Designation is the benchmark of excellence in buyer representation.

CRS: Certified Residential Specialist is a designation held by only about 34,000 real estate agents worldwide.  It requires a minimum of over 75 transactions and about 5 courses in different specialty areas of residential real estate.

GRI: Graduate of the Institute of Real Estate.  Requires the attendance and passing grades in 12 real estate courses.

C-CRE: Consumer-Certified Real Estate Consultant. Involves training on how to tailor services to address consumer demands.

I was born and grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina. As a former employee of the State Department and a Foreign Service wife I lived and had to adapt to unusual places and situations.  I lived and sold real estate in Northern Virginia for close to nine years  and later in Charleston, SC.

I have two children, Roi 30, stationed in California/Afghanistan with the Air Force and Glen, 28, living in Charleston, SC. 

Last, but not least, my pets Isadora, the dog, Mr. Maxwell and Habibi, the cats.   My hobbies are, walking, swimming, Argentinean Tango/ballroom dancing, golf and, sailing.
