Starting From Scratch

Anda Plavnieks, Realtor, Licensed MD I DC

Hey there! I’m really glad you’re here. If you’ve stumbled onto my page, you’re probably curious about real estate — maybe you’re thinking about buying a home for the first time, or you’re just trying to understand how everything works. Either way, welcome. I’m learning and building right alongside you.

Home has always meant more than walls and a roof to me — it's family get-togethers, it's where generations build memories, and where we grow our roots—the happiness and greatness beyond words. Turning properties in the HOME is what drew me into this new career.

I'm grateful for the opportunity to be part of the Compass Mary Lynn White Team, where I'm learning the ins and outs of residential real estate while guiding first-time buyers through every step. Before this, I ran a multimillion-dollar in-home care business, so I know how to support people during big life decisions — and I bring that same care and clarity to real estate.

This page is for anyone curious about buying their first home — or just learning about Montgomery County and DC neighborhoods. I'll share new listings on the market, maybe some real estate tips, lessons I learn along the way, and real steps you can take — no pressure, no jargon.

Let's find a place where roots run deep together! 

Follow along or send me a message — I'd love to connect.
