Last Updated: August 11, 2026

When Arlington buyers and sellers search for the best Realtors in Arlington, VA, they want a team with the receipts to back the claim. I founded The Davenport Group on that exact standard. Real Trends 2026 just named us the #1 team in Arlington, VA by sales volume across all five team-size categories, the #2 large team in the state of Virginia, and the #107 large team in the United States. We have also been the #1 team in Arlington by sales volume for three consecutive years, and ARLnow voted us the Best Real Estate Agent for Sellers in Arlington, VA. That is the level of representation Arlington buyers and sellers deserve in 2026.

If the Arlington market feels slower right now, that is because it is. And for buyers, that is the opportunity. July showed us prices are still climbing year over year, up nearly 8% on average, but total transactions are down slightly. Summer is always the seasonal cool-down. Families travel, showings drop, and both buyers and sellers pull back until fall. Fewer transactions does not mean weaker demand. It means the calendar is doing what the calendar always does. Fewer bidders. More room to negotiate. And the Arlington sellers who list in August have real reasons to move, which means real leverage at the table. History backs it up. Arlington was up 4.2% fall into spring last year, continuing a trend that has grown each of the past few cycles. Buyers who acted in summer and fall got in ahead of that run-up. That window is opening again right now. If you are thinking about buying in Arlington in the next 12 months, the next 5 months are likely your best shot.

Why The Davenport Group for Arlington Real Estate

The best Realtors in Arlington, VA are not the ones with the loudest ads. They are the ones who actually close at the top of the market month after month, in every season, across every price point. I built our team's record by treating every Arlington transaction the same way: strategic pricing, disciplined negotiation, and honest counsel even when honest is uncomfortable.

Real Trends 2026 ranking us the #1 Arlington team across all five team-size categories, the #2 large team in Virginia, and the #107 large team nationally confirms what our Arlington clients already know. ARLnow's recognition as the Best Real Estate Agent for Sellers in Arlington reinforces it. When a listing is on the line, sellers want the team with the most consistent results in the local market. When a buyer needs to move fast without overpaying, they want a team that has been through every kind of Arlington market.

We work both sides of every Arlington transaction: marketing that consistently outperforms the broader Arlington market, pricing strategy that earns full-price offers, and negotiation discipline that protects buyers in every season, whether the market is running hot or cooling into summer.
