Under Contract in Two Days: A Luxury Clarendon Condo Success Story

When long-term clients return again and again, it’s the greatest proof of trust in our process — and this luxury Clarendon 1021 condo story is one worth sharing.
From initial purchase, to rental management, to full sale prep, our team handled each chapter seamlessly, ultimately securing a strong offer after just two days on the market.

Below, we walk through exactly how Jennifer Young Homes made it happen.


The Story Begins: Helping Our Client Purchase This Luxury Condo

Years ago, our client purchased this stunning 2-bed, 2-bath home at 1021 N Garfield St #318 with our buyer team.
Boasting 1,104 square feet, 9’ ceilings, hardwood floors, garage parking, and a private covered balcony, the home offered a perfect blend of style, comfort, and location.


Rental Success Through Trusted Property Management

When life changed and it was time to turn the condo into an investment, the client stayed with the team they already trusted.
For years, we handled full rental management — from marketing the unit to placing reliable tenants to overseeing upkeep.

This long-term relationship meant we knew the property intimately, a major advantage when preparing to sell.


Preparing for Market: Strategy, Timing & Full-Service Prep

The moment the client was ready to sell, they reached out — and we got to work.

We managed every detail, including:

  • Tenant move-out coordination

  • Strategic timeline planning based on market conditions

  • A seamless prep plan curated for luxury buyers

  • Vendor management and final quality checks

This level of preparation ensures a smooth transition from rental property to show-ready listing.


Highlighting the Home’s Best Features

With the tenant moved out, we showcased the condo’s high-value features:

  • Spacious open floor plan

  • Private balcony

  • Two well-proportioned bedrooms with walk-in closets

  • Modern kitchen with black granite, stainless appliances, and sleek cabinetry

  • Full-size washer & dryer

  • Custom window treatments

To elevate the space further, our team provided strategic staging designed to help buyers visualize both luxury and practicality.


Selling the Lifestyle: Clarendon 1021’s Resort-Style Amenities

Luxury buyers in Arlington want more than square footage — they want a lifestyle.
We highlighted Clarendon 1021’s sought-after amenities, including:

  • Rooftop pool & spa with panoramic DC views

  • Fitness center

  • Concierge services

  • Grilling, dining & firepit zones

  • Business lounge & party room

  • Secure building access

Combined with an unbeatable location — steps to Clarendon Metro, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, coffee shops, restaurants, and retail — the lifestyle practically sells itself.


Powerful Marketing That Delivered Fast Results

Our marketing plan was custom-built to reach high-intent Clarendon buyers:

  • Professional photography

  • SEO-optimized listing description

  • Targeted social media promotion

  • Email campaigns to active buyer databases

  • Syndication across all major real estate platforms

The result?
A strong offer after just two days on the market — proving how preparation, positioning, and marketing all work together.


From Purchase to Rental to Sale — Trust Carried This Success

What made this sale so successful wasn’t just the condo.
It was the relationship.

Our client trusted Jennifer Young Homes for every chapter:

  • Purchase

  • Rental management

  • Sale preparation

  • Final listing strategy

And with that trust, we delivered exceptional results at every step.
