When it comes to real estate, it can seem like there are a multitude of roadblocks. Whether that be a lack of education, resources, or just simply not having the right professional to talk to, first-time or even seasoned homebuyers and sellers may find themselves lost in this tiring but life-altering process.

Realtors like Crystal Peace of EXIT Right Reality defy these odds with her business truly focused on the satisfaction and well-being of the client.

A full-time multi-million dollar top producing realtor licensed in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, Peace is a resource for first time homebuyers, rental property owners, and sellers alike. As a former US Army spouse, she additionally specializes in military relocations, helping active duty service members, retirees, and their families. While this is her second venture into real estate, she has been in her current practice for a little over three years now. The happiness of her customers is her main motivation, as she highlights the enjoyment she gets “seeing the faces of people smile when they purchase their first home”.

When it comes to her methods, she blends the efficient qualities of a good realtor with out of the box thinking, making for a truly unique experience. For example, she offers door to door service to complete real estate transactions, by having clients personally taken to and from their settlements. Peace is committed to doing whatever it takes to ensure a comfortable experience for all parties involved, while simultaneously acting as a personal guide.

As mentioned, customers are at the heart of her real estate operation, and in such in an unforgiving market, she assures that what she wants is to make sure that especially those who may have questions are taken care of by a realtor that genuinely cares. “Whether they choose me or choose someone else, you want to find someone that’s going to be able to answer all of their questions, is going to be there to guide them through the entire process, and you know, just be able to make sure that they’re not being taken advantage of,” she said.

If you do choose to work with her, however, rest assured that she will commit herself to your property buying or selling journey. “My drive is just knowing that there’s someone out there who wants to get into real estate but doesn’t know how to break into the industry in terms of how to get started. And being that pillar to say hey, you know if you really want to, if you’re serious about buying a house, let me show you”. As your realtor, Peace is dedicated to making sure that one’s homes are sold for top dollar and or as a first time homebuyer that they are getting the best bang for their buck - something becoming increasingly important in the current financial climate.

While real estate is her man business, she is also a self-proclaimed serial entrepreneur, also co-owning an automotive repair facility in Prince George’s County. With a background in management, marketing, and sales, and recent experiences including working as Senior Director of Membership and Marketing for a DC nonprofit, Peace demonsrates that being well-rounded can certainly assist in smoothing out any real estate process or transaction.
