Buying a home
Find the right home and buy it with confidence — a local agent with you from the first search to the keys, across DC, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia.
Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions you'll make. Since 2006, Ikon agents have guided first-time buyers, move-up buyers and investors through the search, the offer, the inspection and the closing.
You get an agent who knows the neighborhoods, tells you what a home is really worth before you offer, and negotiates for you — not for the seller.

Questions we hear
How is a buyer's agent paid?
Before you tour, you'll sign a written buyer agreement that says how your agent is paid. Compensation is negotiable, and sometimes the seller pays part or all of it. Your agent explains your options up front.
Do you help first-time buyers?
Yes — many of our clients are buying their first home. Start with our first-time buyer guide, then talk to an agent about your budget and timeline.
Which areas do you cover?
Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia, with deep roots in Loudoun County and Northern Virginia.
