Hi, I’m Judy Shoemaker
I’ve spent my career helping buyers and sellers navigate real estate decisions with clarity and confidence. My approach is straightforward and thoughtful. I listen first, explain options clearly, and represent my clients with care from start to finish.
Most of my business today comes from referrals, which I see as a reflection of the trust clients place in me. Whether you’re just beginning to explore your options or ready to move forward, I’m here to provide steady guidance every step of the way.
Referred and Trusted
Referrals are the foundation of my business.
Much of my work comes from referrals by past clients, friends, and colleagues. That trust is something I value deeply, and I approach every transaction with the same level of care and attention.
I believe strong relationships and consistent representation matter more than volume.

How I Help
Every client’s situation is different, but the goal is always the same: to make informed decisions with confidence. I work closely with buyers and sellers to provide clear guidance, honest insight, and steady representation throughout the process.
Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I focus on understanding your priorities and helping you navigate each step in a way that feels comfortable and well informed.
Buyer Representation
I help buyers understand the process, evaluate options, and navigate negotiations with clarity. From the first conversation through closing, I focus on protecting your interests and helping you make decisions that align with your goals.
Seller Representation
For sellers, I provide guidance on pricing, preparation, and strategy to help position your home effectively. My role is to manage the details, communicate clearly, and represent you thoughtfully throughout the listing and closing process.
Local Market Insight
Experience in the Arlington area allows me to offer insight that goes beyond general market information. I help clients understand how location, timing, and local factors can influence decisions and outcomes.
Guidance From Start to Finish
Whether you are early in the process or ready to move forward, I provide steady guidance at every stage. I remain available, responsive, and focused on making the process as clear and manageable as possible.
Why Clients Choose to Work With Me
Experience, consistency, and trusted guidance.
Referral-Based Trust
Most of my business comes from referrals, which means clients come to me because someone they trust had a positive experience. I value that trust and work hard to honor it in every interaction.
Clear and Honest Communication
I believe clients should understand what is happening at every step. I take the time to explain options, answer questions, and keep communication straightforward so there are no surprises.
Local Experience That Matters
Having worked extensively in Arlington and the surrounding areas, I bring local insight that helps clients make informed decisions about pricing, timing, and strategy.
Steady Guidance From Start to Finish
Real estate decisions can feel overwhelming. My role is to provide calm, steady guidance throughout the process so clients feel supported and confident through closing and beyond.
