Thank you for reaching out to me! I'll get back to you as soon as possible. - Derya
I'm a licensed Virginia REALTOR® working with Samson Properties. Prior to real estate, I founded and managed direct-to-farm volunteer food clubs, connecting hundreds of families to fresh, unprocessed food from family-run farms.
I've settled in Fairfax for the past 30 years and have lived in Northern Virginia even longer. I'm knowledgeable about neighborhoods in Fairfax, Vienna, Falls Church, Tysons & Arlington. I look forward to helping you achieve your real estate goals whether you are buying or selling.
New Paragraph
As your Buyer's Representative, I can make the process of house hunting much easier and more efficient than if you did it all yourself. I can help you get financing, guide you to local neighborhoods, help you determine your budget, and prioritize a list of essential features that you need in your next home. I'll save you valuable time by finding the properties that best suit your requirements, and will show you only the most promising ones.
Once you've found a place that catches your eye, I'll analyze comparable properties in the area to help determine a purchase offer. Then I'll expertly negotiate on your behalf with the seller to make sure you get the most favorable terms.
It's my job to look after your best interests, and I will do so at no cost to you as a buyer.
Selling a house on your own can be an overwhelming task. There's advertising to plan and budget for, open houses and private showings to arrange, purchase offers to negotiate, contract contingencies to worry about, and complicated paperwork to fill out. Make it easy on yourself by putting your home in the hands of a seasoned professional. I have extensive experience marketing properties and showing them to their best advantage.
First, I'll perform a comparable market analysis to determine the most appropriate price for your home. Then I'll provide home staging advice and suggest landscaping changes that will help draw buyers in. I'll market your home through a variety of methods, including local publications and public MLS® listings and listing syndication sites.
Market knowledge goes beyond simply knowing the neighborhoods. Ask me about the school district, available parking, or standard bedroom sizes in the area.
Your time is valuable. That's why I take the time upfront to understand your unique wants, needs and dislikes to ensure the rest of our time together is productive as possible.
You have questions and I have answers. I'll make sure that you feel confident and empowered when it comes to make important real estate and purchasing decisions.
If you are looking for the best REALTOR® to help you find your dream home, Derya is the one! We cannot state enough how grateful we are to her and to what extent her professional work and kindness helped us navigate the real state maze and get the place we now call home.
My husband and I are forever grateful to her. As first-time home buyers, the whole process of buying a home was confusing and challenging to us, and we had lots of questions. Derya responded to every single one of them thoroughly and timely. She guided us smoothly through the home-purchasing path and stood along us at every step. Her availability was outstanding. She really made our timeline her own and was always prompt to respond to our needs; she was flexible to meet us when it was best for us, and accommodated us (first time parents to a newborn) so we could easily schedule our home hunt.
Our relationship was built on trust and kindness since day one, and it continued to grow since then. Courteous, humane, and always smiling, she rapidly became someone we could trust. She toured many houses with us, helping us analyze benefits and risks every time. When we found the house we now own, Derya tailored an amazing offer and was sharp in negotiating so we could get the best possible deal. Communication with lender, sellers, bank, title company, etc. was, thanks to her, exceptional. She made this complex process run smooth. And she did it in record time, as we were able to close the deal and move to our house in 20 days!
Derya is the wise advisor you want when touring houses; the effective worker you need when processing paperwork and communicating with banks and other agencies; the aggressive negotiator you need to write an offer and get a great deal price for your house; the trusted and experienced realtor who knows the market very well; and the loving friend who will make the whole process fun.

“Derya is knowledgeable, hands-on and a great communicator! Beyond her charming and witty personality, what shines most is her dedication to transparency and customer support. She has a knack for anticipating concerns and explaining things plainly (and i asked a lot of questions!), and oftentimes, with bonus information that we never would have thought. She rented our home in 3 days and we searched and bought our new home, within a month! She made this momentous ride so smooth and we can’t thank her enough! If you're lucky enough to stumble upon this review, I can't recommend her more highly. She's our agent for life! August, 2018

“Derya is incredibly persistent and thorough. She helped us secure multiple offers, even though our house hit the market during a notoriously slow time of year. She took the time to explain the process and made everything easy for us. She has a great attitude, which made working with her a true pleasure. January, 2016
