About Seneva Zayas

Saneva is a Realtor® with more than a decade of experience helping buyers and sellers throughout the DMV. Licensed in Maryland, DC, and Virginia, she has called Prince George’s County home for more than 25 years, and she’s just as active in DC neighborhoods like Penn Quarter, Dupont and Logan Circles, and Petworth and Shaw.

In Maryland, she knows Upper Marlboro communities like Marlboro Ridge, Beechtree, and Marlton inside and out, and she works throughout Prince George’s, Charles, Anne Arundel, Howard, and Calvert Counties, Baltimore County, and Baltimore City. She has also helped buyers find homes in Virginia, and she brings that same local knowledge to Virginia sellers.

Saneva came to the area for college at Howard University and never left, living in DC and Virginia before settling in Upper Marlboro in 1999. She spent 20 years there watching new neighborhoods take shape, and that growth, along with her sales background, convinced her she could thrive in real estate. During a major life change, she also wanted a career that let her be present for her school-aged children. Nearly eleven years later, she’s still loving the work, and she now calls Brandywine home.

Before real estate, Saneva built a career in retail management, C-suite recruiting, and financial services management. She holds a BBA in Marketing and an Executive MBA from Howard University and is a member of the Howard University Alumni Association. She brings that business sense to every transaction, from pricing and marketing a home to negotiating the best possible terms.

She especially loves working with first-time buyers, military buyers and sellers, investors, and clients who are downsizing: people who want someone knowledgeable in their corner. She holds the Military Residential Specialist (MilRES®) and At Home With Diversity® (AHWD) certifications, and clients can count on her for clear communication, straight answers, and a relationship that lasts long after closing.

Born and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina, Saneva still has deep roots there and visits often, which makes her a natural resource for anyone moving between North Carolina and the DMV.

Giving back is a priority. Saneva helps lead Competitive Edge EQ, a nonprofit that builds emotional intelligence, leadership, and STEM opportunities for student-athletes. She is a former President and current Honorary Member of the Marlboro Boys & Girls Club, a former member of the Prince George’s County Boys & Girls Club Board of Directors, and a member of Mount Ennon Baptist Church since 2008.

A self-proclaimed “gym girlie,” she’s spent the last four years making fitness a non-negotiable, and she has no plans to stop.  When she’s not working out, she loves reading, live music, and traveling whenever she can.

Whether you’re buying in DC, selling in Prince George’s County, or searching in Virginia, Saneva would love to help.
