As a REALTOR®, Cristina has been working with home buyers and sellers in the
Northern Virginia area for over 15 years. Her experience working with families and colleagues in the field of education prepared her for many successful relationships with her real estate clients. With a background as an educator, she truly enjoys educating home buyers and helping them through the process of purchasing a home. Cristina has earned a reputation of being hard working, responsible, honest and fun!

Raised in Fairfax, Cristina has watched the area grow into what it is today – a complex real estate market. Cristina has over 25 years of work experience serving the public in two capacities – teacher and REALTOR®.

Prior to becoming a REALTOR®, Cristina was a special education teacher with the Fairfax County Public School system for 12 years. She dedicated herself to teaching elementary and middle school students with learning disabilities, focusing on the area of reading. Cristina rose to the top of her profession as a National Board Certified teacher – among the first to earn this distinction.

Cristina has been a Top Producer for many years. She was featured in the Washingtonian as a Top Producing Real Estate Agent in the DC Metro Area in 2015 and 2016. She was also recognized as a Top Real Estate Agent featured in the Northern Virginia Magazine in 2016.

Cristina has worked hard to build her business over years and is currently focused on expanding a thriving team. She is known for her high level of customer service, trust and reliability.

Cristina has an international upbringing because she was raised in a State Department family. She was born in Senegal, West Africa and throughout her childhood she lived in Dakar, Senegal, Accra, Ghana, Ottawa, and Madrid. Cristina moved back to the Northern Virginia area in 1982. She attended the College of Charleston in South Carolina where she earned her bachelor’s degree in Psychology and her master’s degree in Education.

“We used Cristina to buy our home 4 years ago and she kept in touch throughout the years. It was a no brainer to go to her when we were selling our home. She was so helpful throughout the process from walking through our home and giving us tips to stage, to walking us through the paperwork to list and giving us recommendations, she was incredible. It’s a bummer that we moved out of the area, because she is the best real estate agent around.” ~Client Review

“From the moment we met Cristina, we knew she would be the Realtor for us. After a quick tour of our home, Cristina outlined her plan for selling our home and brought examples and documents to review. We appreciated her knowledge and confidence as we started the stressful process of selling our home. She responded quickly to all questions and concerns in a thoughtful and positive manner, and represented our interests to prospective buyers and agents. Cristina provided insight and advice on how best to deal with issues that came up, and kept us appraised of important information. Cristina’s team and vendor recommendations helped to ensure the successful sale of our home. I would absolutely recommend Cristina to family and friends.” ~Client Review

“We worked with Cristina Dougherty to sell our home in Fairfax, VA. Cristina was extremely knowledgable about the market and worked with us to ensure a smooth selling process. She provided up-to-date marketing of our home and got our house sold in days with multiple offers. She helped negotiate the best contract for our house and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”  ~ Client Review

“We just purchased our first home in Fairfax and we could not have done it without Cristina’s negotiating skills and knowledge! We were out-of-state clients and were looking for a specific type of property and Cristina was super patient with showing us many properties until we found the right one. From the inspection to closing, Cristina and her assistant Stephanie helped us throughout the entire process and I honestly don’t think we would have known what to do without her and her team! I highly recommend Cristina 100% if you are looking to purchase in the DMV!” ~ Client Review

“Cristina is an AMAZING agent.  She knows her stuff, and it shows every step of the buying and selling process.  She gave us expert advice on how best to prepare our home for sale, accurately read our housing market and sold our home within days for more than we could ever have expected.  She was available every step of the way, and went above and beyond by connecting us with a real estate agent of her caliber within the new city and state we were moving. My husband and I can’t say enough great things about Cristina – she is truly in a league of her own!” ~ Client Review

“BEST experience ever, especially as first time home buyers. Cristina is very knowledgeable and helped us navigate the competitive housing market. She was ALWAYS responsive and truly made us feel as though we were her only client, even though she was extremely busy. She walked us seamlessly through the home buying process from start to finish the experience was nothing short of amazing. We HIGHLY recommend Cristina if you are looking to buy in Northern Virginia (Metro DC area).” ~ Client Review

“Cristina was so patient with us as we relocated from the West coast and navigated different areas of Fairfax to find our forever home. She negotiated on our behalf with countless agents and was honest, but optimistic with every offer we submitted. Her responsiveness and flexibility in showing us houses last minute made me feel like we were her only clients. Cristina is so knowledgable, personable, and goes out of her way to fight for her clients.” ~ Client Review

“There is no better way to sell your home then with Cristina and her team.  They helped us step by step through the entire process and got us top dollar for our property.  They are not only extremely professional,  but caring and truly looking out for your best interests. Look no further than Cristina Dougherty and her team for your real estate needs.” ~ Client Review
