	web Vinny Goldsmith an Anne Arundel County Realtor

With a background in advertising and marketing I have the necessary information and knowledge to cast the widest net possible.  Whether you are looking for a home to buy, or you want as many potential buyers as possible to look at your home - I can make it happen.

I won't take a listing or show a house if I don't think I can add value to the process.  I consider home ownership one of the greatest things an adult can undertake and I am especially mindful of making sure first time home buyers feel comfortable in the process.

The areas where I feel the most value are the specific neighborhoods where I have worked hard to build a knowledge base.  

These include:

Crofton Townhouses,

Bowie Townhouses,

Piney Orchard Homes,

Severna Park Homes,

Annapolis Condominiums,

New Home Construction,

and

Calvert County Homes.

I'm also very knowledgeable about the following areas in Maryland:

Crofton, Lothian, North Beach, Owings, Deale, Galesville, Severna Park, Crownsville, Davidsonville, Edgewater, Rive, Annapolis, and Shady Side.

I grew up in Southern Maryland so I keep my hands in a few deals down there.  Most notably I own and manage rental houses in Lusby and Waldorf.

 

At heart though I am still just an Anne Arundel County Real Estate Agent
