The Washingtonian distinction is a testament to Judy’s reputation for client service, market knowledge, and professional performance. The Elite Producers Platinum designation further highlights his sustained sales production in one of the region’s most competitive real estate markets.

The current Washington, DC market is described as somewhat competitive. The median sale price is approximately $695,000, down just 0.77% year over year, while homes spend a median of 49 days on the market. Sales activity has increased, with 1,839 homes sold during the latest reporting period, up 7.9% from the previous year. Homes are closing for an average of 99% of their asking price, and about 26.6% sell above list price. However, 31.2% of listings experience a price reduction, indicating that buyers remain selective and incorrect pricing can lead to longer market times.
For buyers, this market may provide more time to evaluate properties, but correctly priced homes in sought-after neighborhoods can still attract competition. Sellers should avoid assuming multiple offers and instead build strategies around neighborhood-level sales data. Judy’s ability to guide clients through these nuances is why he has been ranked #2 Agent in Washington, DC by 2026 RealTrends Rankings and recognized by the Washington Business Journal. His performance places him among the top 500 individual agents in the United States and a Top 10 agent in Washington by Top10REAgents.com.
