Anda Plavnieks | Downsizing Specialist & Strategic Real Estate Advisor
Named a 2025 Washingtonian "Best Of" Agent, Anda Plavnieks brings a rare combination of executive-level business acumen and deep empathy to the DMV real estate market. Partnered with a Top Global Agent at Compass, Anda specializes in the intricate transitions of multigenerational living and thoughtful downsizing across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia.
Whether helping families "move up," guiding adult children into their first homes, or supporting parents through a respectful downsize, Andaās mission is to make every transition seamless, dignified, and financially sound.
The Business of Empathy
Before entering real estate, Anda built and successfully sold a multimillion-dollar in-home eldercare business. This executive experience allows her to thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure environments while handling complex, highly emotional transitions with a steady hand. She treats every family like her own, ensuring her clients feel heard, protected, and expertly guided from the first conversation to long after the transaction closes.
A Discerning Eye for Quality
Born and raised in Riga, Latviaāa city renowned for its historic Art Nouveau architectureāAnda grew up in a multigenerational home surrounded by craftsmanship built to last. This European upbringing instilled a lifelong appreciation for quality and the true meaning of "home." She brings this discerning eye to every property she evaluates, helping her clients see beyond the surface to the true value of a home.
Invested in Community and Legacy
Beyond real estate, Anda is deeply committed to community service and family legacy. She actively supports Montgomery and Prince George's Hospice organizations, the American Latvian Association (ALA), and hospice initiatives in Latvia. When you work with Anda, you gain more than a real estate expert; you gain a dedicated partner invested in your family's comfort and long-term belonging.
