Military Buyers Deserve Better Representation—Here’s What We’re Doing About It
Military families move under pressure. Tight PCS timelines, unfamiliar cities, and VA loan complexities are just the beginning. Add in the fast-moving military DC real estate market, and it’s clear—these buyers need agents who truly understand their world.
At City Chic Real Estate, we believe military buyers deserve more than surface-level service. They deserve partners who show up with knowledge, strategy, and respect for the challenges they face. As a team deeply rooted in the DC market, we’re raising the standard for how military clients are supported.
What’s the Issue?
Too many military buyers in DC are underserved. Agents unfamiliar with VA loans, unsure how to navigate PCS schedules, or unavailable for quick-turn video tours leave military families at a disadvantage.high-stakes And in a high stakes market like DC, that lack of understanding can cost them time, money, and peace of mind.
A Note from Our Founder
“Military families often arrive in DC under pressure—new assignments, limited housing windows, and big decisions to make fast. I’ve seen firsthand how frustrating it can be when they’re paired with agents who don’t fully ‘get it.’
At City Chic, we’ve committed to being the kind of team that does. We take the time to understand VA loans. We’ve trained our agents in military timelines, and we’ve built systems to support clients from afar. This isn’t just a transaction, it's a mission, and it matters.”
– Lindsay, Founder, City Chic Real Estate
