Theo Harding | DC Metro Real Estate Advisor

For buyers and sellers across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia, I bring something that comes from more than studying the market: decades of living, working, and building businesses in the DC area.

I’m a lifelong DC-area local, and my career has been built around relationships, trust, and getting things done. Before real estate, I owned and operated a Capitol Hill delivery and messenger company for more than 30 years, serving clients throughout the U.S. House and Senate. Earlier in my career, I worked inside and behind the scenes in U.S. Senate campaigns, high-profile fundraisers, and Presidential events — experiences that taught me the importance of discretion, attention to detail, and following through.

That experience shapes the way I approach real estate today.

I’m licensed in Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia, with particular knowledge of Montgomery County and communities throughout the DC metro area. Whether you're buying your first home, selling a long-held property, investing, or navigating a complicated transaction, my role is to provide straightforward advice, thoughtful strategy, strong negotiation, and hands-on support from our first conversation through closing.

What Clients Can Expect

• More than three decades of local business ownership and client service

• Deep knowledge of DC, Maryland, and Virginia

I’m proud to be part of Wydler Brothers of Compass, a nationally recognized team that has been recognized among the Wall Street Journal's Top 50 real estate teams.

A Little More About Me

Real estate is my profession, and the relationships I build along the way are what make the work meaningful.

I’m happily married and a proud father of two sons serving in the U.S. Navy, and I’ve spent my life in the communities I now help clients navigate. That connection matters to me. I know that a home is more than a property, and that buying or selling one is often about much more than the transaction itself.

My approach is simple: know the market, tell the truth, pay attention to the details, and be there when my clients need me.
