REALTOR® · SAMSON PROPERTIES
I’m John Christ, a full-time Southern Maryland REALTOR®, Certified Residential Appraiser, and real estate investor. I help buyers and sellers across Calvert, Charles, and St. Mary’s Counties make decisions with a clearer understanding of the property, the numbers, and their next move.
My background includes 25+ years of real estate and appraisal experience. My work includes White Plains new construction listings, Lusby home sales, and helping clients coordinate buying and selling.
Start with your goals. We can discuss relevant sales, preparation priorities, ownership costs, and a timeline that fits your plans.

A nearby sale is a starting point. We’ll look at whether buyers would see that property as a meaningful alternative to yours, considering condition, layout, location, improvements, and the timing of the sale.
My appraisal background helps me explain the evidence and the differences that matter. We’ll connect that pricing discussion with a preparation budget, listing presentation, and your moving timeline.

NEW CONSTRUCTION & YOUR NEXT HOME
My White Plains work includes new construction listings. When exploring a new home, compare included features, upgrades, lot premiums, community fees, construction timing, and any conditions attached to builder incentives.
Clarify representation and any builder registration requirements before visiting or registering. We’ll discuss who represents whom for the property you are considering. If you also need to sell, we can work through how the two closings may fit together.
EXPERIENCE YOU CAN EXPLORE
Each example describes a particular property. Results vary, and a past sale is not a promise of a future price or timeline.

Yes. Discuss preparation, pricing, financing questions, and both closing timelines early. The plan should allow for uncertainty in the sale and, when relevant, construction completion.
