Licensed since 1991, my background includes 10 years in the corporate world with Freddie Mac and AOL, Director of Marketing and Sales for a local custom builder; and a term as the Mayor's Appointee for the Leesburg Architectural Review Board.
I have personally closed over $50 million dollars in real estate transactions over the last 4 years. I am a Life Long Resident of Northern Virginia. I grew up in the small town of Occoquan Virginia on the Prince William and Fairfax County Line. I moved to Loudoun County in 1998. I currently live in Western Loudoun County, in the historic town of Hamilton, Virginia with my husband, Steve, our three dogs, two cats, a horse, and a donkey. I am a horse and foxhunting enthusiast as well as an amateur painter. In my spare time, I enjoy golf, singing, dog obedience training, old house renovation and historic preservation.
My success is based on a network of loyal clients, friends and their generous referrals. I look forward to meeting new people and helping them find the home that best serves their lifestyle. I'm never too busy to answer questions or provide information. I'm only a call or e-mail away. 703-966-7036 or kelgaitten@aol.com

The daily tasks in the processing department were a great foundation for my work in Real Estate.
