About Long and Foster Real Estate | Long & Foster

IT’S THE ONE.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned in 50+ years of buying and selling homes, it’s that the process can be just that — a process. Once you find your dream home, come the many — the many steps, the many calls, the many signatures.

Imagine if the many felt more like one. One team in lockstep with your every move, and one real estate company that can do it all. That’s the All-Inclusive Real Estate Experience.

With a team of uniquely qualified specialists, our agents work closely together to deliver a streamlined, stress-free experience to our clients. From Mortgage, Inspection and Title, to Insurance, Moving, Property Management and beyond, we do it all. We not only pioneered the concept, we have perfected it.

The All-Inclusive Real Estate Experience. It’s the one way we think about real estate.
