Jose Semorile, who grew up in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, arrived in Washington, D.C., in 1990. After more than 30 years in the DMV area, Jose has gained a unique perspective on life in the nation’s capital. His experiences have allowed him to witness the evolution of its neighborhoods and the diverse communities within this dynamic, transient city. He is dedicated to helping everyone feel at home in the DMV, whether their stay is short or long-term.
Jose began his career in cellular telecommunications, where he developed invaluable communication and hospitality skills and mastered analyzing large data sets to create insightful reports that empowered customers to make informed decisions. These skills have seamlessly translated into his successful career in real estate, allowing him to listen attentively to his clients' needs, explain complex market data clearly, and stay updated on the ever-changing neighborhoods.
As a trusted real estate advisor, Jose understands that buying or selling a home is one of life’s most significant decisions. His extensive background has enabled him to confidently guide clients through the real estate process in the D.C. area for over 20 years, earning their trust and fostering repeat business.

“I don’t see real estate as a transaction; I see it as building a relationship,” says Jose. His clients return to him because he delivers more than just a home; he helps them realize a lifestyle they envision: a starter home marking newfound independence or a spacious residence reflecting their growing status. His unwavering dedication and commitment to thorough market research have earned him a reputation for excellence. Jose has achieved over $70 million in sales and received the Northern Virginia Association of Realtors Multi-Million Dollar Club Top Producer award.
Beyond his professional achievements, Jose is deeply involved in charitable initiatives. He serves on the Advisory Board of Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind (CLB), which supports the blind and visually impaired.
