How to Sell Your Centreville Home and Keep More Equity with 1.5% Commission

by Saad Jamil

Centreville, VA, is more than just a Northern Virginia suburb—it’s a community that combines convenience, lifestyle, and strong home values. From top-rated Fairfax County schools to nearby shopping, dining, and recreational options, Centreville offers something for everyone. Commuters love its quick access to Route 28, I-66, and Dulles Airport, while families appreciate the parks, trails, and safe, friendly neighborhoods.

With the market moving fast, homeowners are asking an important question: why give away 6% in commissions when you can get full-service representation for just 1.5%? Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or selling your first home, keeping more of your hard-earned equity makes a big difference.
