Daryl Judy, an associate broker with Washington Fine Properties, has been named to Washingtonian’s 2026 “100 Best Agents” list and recognized as an Elite Producers Platinum honoree. This recognition underscores his sustained performance and reputation in one of the nation’s most competitive real estate markets.
With over 900 completed transactions and more than $1.17 billion in lifetime sales, Judy has established himself as a leading agent in Washington, DC. He serves a diverse clientele, including first-time buyers, longtime homeowners, investors, and luxury clients, across the District and surrounding DMV communities. His career is marked by a practical understanding of how to price, market, and negotiate for various property types, from historic rowhouses to downtown condos.
Clients value Judy’s direct, honest approach. He provides clear explanations of market conditions, identifies potential issues early, and offers candid advice, even when it might not align with client expectations. This transparency, coupled with his hands-on involvement throughout each transaction, has earned him a loyal following and numerous accolades. In addition to Washingtonian, Judy has been recognized by RealTrends, the Washington Business Journal, and Top10REAgents.com, and has received over 100 five-star reviews on Zillow and Google.
Judy’s recognition comes at a time when the Washington, DC housing market is described as “somewhat competitive.” According to recent data, the median sale price stands at approximately $695,000, a slight 0.77% decrease year over year. Homes are spending a median of 49 days on the market, and sales activity has increased by 7.9% compared to the previous year. On average, homes close at 99% of their asking price, and about 26.6% sell above list price. However, 31.2% of listings experience a price reduction, indicating that buyers remain selective and that accurate pricing is crucial.
For buyers, the current market may offer more time to evaluate properties, but well-priced homes in desirable neighborhoods can still attract competition. Sellers should approach pricing strategically, based on neighborhood-level data, rather than assuming multiple offers are guaranteed.
Judy’s extensive experience and data-driven approach position him well to guide clients through these market dynamics. His recognition by Washingtonian is a testament to his dedication and the results he delivers. Based in the Logan Circle office of Washington Fine Properties, Judy continues to serve clients across all price points with an emphasis on preparation, responsiveness, and informed decision-making.
