Zarif Sahin
Zarif Sahin lived in Germany and Turkey throughout her teenage years. She came to the United States in 1989 and made it her home. Having lived in Germany, Turkey, and the US helped her understand and respect diverse cultures, which enable her to connect with people very quickly.
She worked in the beauty and wellness industry for over ten years. This experience helped her develop outstanding customer service skills, patience, and an aptitude for taking care of people. Now, she is able to combine these skills and provide her clients with the utmost level of service.
Zarif's interest in Real Estate started in 2005 while going through her divorce, and having to sell and buy her own homes. After she obtained her education, and experience needed for Real Estate, she then continued to help others make their dreams come true.
She embarked on her career just when the Real Estate market started to plunge, but the challenges of the falling market did not prevent her from pursuing her dream of becoming a successful realtor. Going through many obstacles in her life naturally built her up with the ability to adapt to different circumstances quickly and efficiently.
She continues to improve herself in the areas of education, knowledge, and skills. She speaks fluently in German, Turkish, and English. Her social, analytical, and organizational skills help her to be successful, but her strong proficiency in negotiation is what ultimately gives her an advantage in her career. Her purpose is to earn the trust of others by demonstrating her integrity. Her hard work ethics and her attention to detail, in addition to her dedication to her clients ensures positive results. She is very involved in the community, loves helping others, and believes in making a difference in the world.
Zarif begins new client relationships by simply listening to their desires, goals, and needs. She works diligently to put together effective strategies to help her clients in their transition of buying or selling their homes. She especially enjoys the concept of turning an ordinary house into one's dream home. She has some excellent resources in good trade and service professionals, and therefore has become her clients "go to" person.
Her specialties include: First Time Home Buyers, Move-up Buyers, Investment Properties, Luxury Properties, Relocations, Short Sales, and Foreclosures. She is licensed in Virginia and is currently working on obtaining her license in Maryland as well.
