Roby C. ThompsonIII
Long & Foster Real
Estate
Roby Thompson, III has been in the real estate business 35 years and counting. He just "fell into the business" after his father suggested he speak with one of his college buddies, Wes Foster, about it. Roby studied at Gettysburg College and earned a degree in political science, working for an attorney for three years before realizing divorce law wasn't his cup of tea.
Real estate certainly seems to suit Roby! He was the top solo agent at Long and Foster for sales in 2015 in DC, and he has been the number one agent in his office for over two decades, and in the top one percent of agents across the USA for over ten years, breaking $60 million in sales in 2021.
Starting out, Roby learned that treating people with respect and gaining their trust is essential to making them comfortable to let you lead them through one, if not the most, important financial decision they typically make in their lives.
He has had many deals that were memorable and many clients that have become close friends throughout the years. His most memorable statistic is selling the Adams Inn B&B four times over a 25-year period, which is a somewhat nostalgic thing, and he hopes to resell it again one day.
The most important successes in Roby's life includes raising his three wonderful children and establishing a strong career so he could afford to provide for his wife and kids. He also shares that his secret sauce has always been going that extra mile for his clients.
Roby likes to go that extra mile because it shows that he actually does care about his clients and he is looking out for their best interests. Answering calls and emails immediately also gains trust. Looking them right in the eye when you speak with them and having an innate knowledge of the market and being able to respond instantly gives people a strong sense of confidence in you. He always tells the truth to his clients... Telling them what
they want to hear does no good for anyone and will typically result in a falling out and loss of the client and "bad press" about you to possible future clients. He would rather lose a listing than waste his clients' time.
Roby really enjoys spending time with his daughter and two sons when he's not busy at the office. He likes to play golf with his sons and he loves to going fishing and travel with his family. He has always worked solo until about 3 years ago when one of his sons started working with him. A lot of close friends who are agents have asked him many times why Roby doesn't go to the next level of business by creating his own team or brokerage. But honestly, he would rather go on a trip with his kids, or friends, and throw lures for fish than work to death. There is only so much money a guy needs, and life is too short to not balance the finer parts of living with the work of life.
Work hard and learn to not work too hard; enjoy life to its fullest but know how to balance work and play.

Alexandria Virginia
Founded in 1749, Alexandria, Virginia, has evolved from a small tobacco trading post into a contemporary city with a rich history and stunning architecture. Eight miles from the Lincoln Memorial, National Mall, and the Museum of National History, the city has a relaxed pace compared to the hustle and bustle of downtown Washington D.C. Alexandria’s Old Town offers a glimpse into the past of America through its historic buildings.
THINGS TO DO
Explore the Old Town during the day with its assortment of boutique stores, theaters, and antique shops. Here you’ll find grand townhouses from the 18th and early-19th centuries lining the west bank of the Potomac River. This shimmering mass of water, the fourth-largest on the Atlantic coast, is popular with fishermen and boaters. With children’s playground and riverside vistas, nearby Windmill Hill Park is the perfect spot for a picnic. Don’t forget to visit the Lyceum either, which is less than a mile away. This museum, built in 1839 and famous for its impressive Greek Revival architecture, retells the history of Alexandria, Virginia, from Colonial times through to the modern day.
Later on, head over to King Street, Old Town’s main street, and catch some live jazz. Alexandria’s convenient mid-coast
location made it a popular haunt for some of the most famous artists in the genre, a tradition that continues today.
HOUSING IN ALEXANDRIA
Spread throughout 159 neighborhoods, Alexandria real estate is a mixture of pre-Revolutionary War homes, Georgian homes, and contemporary 21st-century architecture. The city straddles old and new perfectly. Alexandria celebrates its past—
historic streets like Duke Street, Queen Street, and Prince Street are named after royalty and statesmen—but looks firmly to the future. Homes for sale in Alexandria, including semi-detached, row, and singlefamily houses, come with smaller price tags than properties in nearby Washington D.C.
TRANSPORTATION AND TRAVEL IN ALEXANDRIA
Alexandria is populated by professionals working in the military, federal civil service, and private companies that provide services to the government. The U.S. Department of Defense, Institute for Defense Analyses, and the United States Patent and Trademark Office are among the city’s largest employers. You’ll find Alexandria, VA, is a pedestrian-friendly city best explored at a slow pace, but if you want to travel further, hop on Washington Metro’s Blue Line that transports you from King St Station to the beating heart of Washington D.C. without breaking a sweat. Alternatively, consider cycling activities, since there are many cyclist-friendly neighborhoods and twisting trails to be discovered in Alexandria.

Spite THE
The Skinniest Historic House in America HOUSE
Located at 523 Queen Street in Alexandria, Virginia and situated between two larger homes, this 7’ wide brick home claims the prize for most diminutive dwelling. Nicknamed the “Spite House,” (or Spitehouse) the home was built by John Hollensbury in 1830.
Hollensbury, a brickmaker and city council member in Alexandria, lived in a home on Queen Street that was built in 1780 and stood next to an alley. There are three stories on how the small building next to Hollensbury’s house came to be.
The best known story is that Hollensbury grew tired of people loitering in the alley as well as the horse-drawn wagons, which left gouges on his home’s exterior wall with their wagon-wheel hubs. He bought the alley lot at 523 Queen Street for $45.65 and in 1830 built a
small house out of spite measuring 7-feet 6-inches wide and 25feet deep to prevent others from further damaging his walls and to reduce noise. The reasoning behind constructing the house and its unusual size earned it the nickname “Spitehouse..
The second story of the building’s history is that Hollensbury and his neighbor who lived at 521 Queen Street were at one time good friends, but due to the neighbor’s carriage damaging Hollensbury’s house and a fallout in their friendship in the late 1820s, Hollensbury decided to build the small house.
The third and final story is that Hollensbury built a playhouse for his two daughters, Julia and Harriett, and that one of them later lived in the house as an adult.
The house is a frequent stop on guided tours of the Alexandria Historic District and tourists will frequently stop to take photos of or in front of the house, stretching their arms out to show how small the building is. On occasion people knock on the front door to ask if they can take a tour of the house.
The Hollensbury Spite House is one of four spite houses in Alexandria,
which most likely were built as alley houses to save on costs.
The oldest of the other spite houses is 205 King Street, which was built around 1812 and measures 11-feet 9-inches wide. It has served as a private residence, cobbler’s shop, and boutique store.
The third house is located at 403 Prince Street and measures 7-feet 9-inches wide. It was built sometime before 1883, most likely by Samuel Janney, who bequeathed the house and the adjoining property to his son, Henry.
The fourth spite house is located at 1401 Prince Street. It measures 8-feet 2-inches wide and unlike the others, it’s a one-story building. The house was constructed sometime in the 1890s and has been incorporated into the adjoining building.

5 EASY WAYS
TO REFRESH YOUR BATHROOM FOR SPRING
Source: Brandpoint
There’s nothing like the warmer temperatures, blooming flowers and longer, brighter days to inspire you to take a fresh look at your home, and the ideal place to get started is in one of your most-used spaces: the bathroom. Spring is the perfect time to refresh your bathroom, so why not go beyond a thorough cleaning to make the room feel brand new? Fresh, seasonal colors give the room an upgraded look, and products like a new toilet seat let you continue that springfresh feeling all season.
Here are simple ideas to help you get started on revamping your bathroom this spring.
1. Invite more color: Start with swapping out some of the simple elements in your bathroom, taking the opportunity to brighten the space with fresh new colorful towels, bathmats and even a new shower curtain. Choose light, appealing colors and/or patterns based on natural elements that will bring more of a springtime feeling into your home.
2. Decorate thoughtfully: Consider adding some easy decorative accents, like glass jars filled with cotton swabs, small soaps or garden flowers. A little goes a long way, so choose just a few of these accents to help give the room a sense of spa-like elegance, without making it seem overly busy or cluttered.
3. Think attractive storage solutions: Include smart and visually appealing storage options such as a few pretty baskets on shelves for holding extra guest towels, for example. Baskets are also really useful for keeping that extra clutter off of your countertops, and you can easily organize them by categories like toiletries, washcloths and makeup.
4. Upgrade your seat: Spring cleaning for your bathroom isn’t complete without a new toilet seat. The Mayfair by Bemis Affinity is an attractive plastic seat that installs easily and is designed for a precise fit, so it never moves after you install it. The seat also features quiet closing to avoid unpleasant slamming. Best yet, the hinges are designed to let you easily remove the seat for thorough cleaning - and when
you’re finished cleaning, you simply place the seat back on the toilet and close the hinge caps. The durable plastic seat wipes clean effortlessly for that final touch on a fresh, spring bathroom feel.
Visit ToiletSeats.com for more options to help you find the perfect seat from Bemis Manufacturing Company.
5. Refresh your windows: After giving your bathroom windows a thorough cleaning inside and out, consider updating how they look overall with new window treatments. One terrific on-trend idea is to install roller blinds or Roman shades in lighter colors. If you opt for blinds or shades made from thin-enough fabric, they will still provide much-needed privacy while also letting in some natural light - helping the whole room feel lighter and brighter.
Ready to get started on refreshing your bathroom? These are all ideas you can easily DIY - no plumber or designer required! - that will make a big difference for the look and feel of your bathroom, right away. Then you can relax and enjoy your room all season long.

BUYING
CHILE
If you are thinking about moving to Chile you will want to learn where the best places to live in Chile are. Chile is home to some of the coolest cities in South America, with a friendly and welcoming vibe, affordable living costs, and incredible nature.
SANTIAGO
Santiago is the capital of Chile its most populous city. This is a cultural and creative urban centre, and one of the largest in all the Americas with a population of over 7,000,000 in its dense core.
It’s a place of student protests, galleries and museums, interesting book shops and nightlife – all on a backdrop of the Andes in the distance.
For somewhere to live in the Chilean capital, head to the fun and bohemian Bellavista neighborhood is a good option; if you want lively nightlife in the form of clubs, bars and dinner spots, head here.
For somewhere less lively, Bellas Artes and Lastarria are two stylish neighborhoods, complete with antique shops and bookstores for daily browsing.
In recent years, Santiago has been developing into a top international tourist destination. People are drawn here to wander its multiple hipster-friendly neighbourhoods, enjoy the vintage feels of the buildings, stroll the leafy parks – and get fantastic shots of the city from up on the many hills surrounding it.
LA SERENA
Far to the north of Santiago, La Serena is a laid-back city with a completely different feel to the capital – and many other Chilean cities.
This place is famous for its beaches, particularly the very long El Faro, which is also known for its historic lighthouse (hence the name: faro means “lighthouse”).
For somewhere to live close to beaches of La Serena, you should hit up San Joaquin. Otherwise, Cerro Grande is a good place to base yourself.
Both of these neighbourhoods are safe and located just a stones through from the very long stretch of sun, sea and sand that is Playa El Faro.
In the centre of La Serena, at Mercado La Recova, you will find a whole selection of different eateries to try out; this is the city’s most interesting and lively market and a good place to come to jump right into local life. Here it’s all about the food, so if you’re a foodie this will be your actual paradise.
For places to chill and stroll in town, head to the greenery of the Japanese Garden in central La Serena; this is a beautiful botanical garden that’s just right for breathing a breath of fresh air. Elsewhere the city park of Plaza de Armas is particularly nice in summer.
