We’re excited and ready to put our skills to work in the local community.”

Opening this new office aligns with Long & Foster’s plan to expand our ability to provide unparalleled customer service to our buyers and sellers and our continued growth is one of the reasons we are the No. 1 firm throughout the mid-Atlantic, said Gary Scott, president of Long & Foster Real Estate.
