With over a decade of experience living in Washington and a professional foundation built on hospitality, Sam Benton brings a refined level of service and care to every client interaction. Before beginning her career in real estate, Benton honed her communication and client service skills working with The Ritz-Carlton, where she learned the importance of attention to detail and maintaining the highest standards of excellence.

Whether helping someone find their first home or the perfect rental, Benton’s goal is simple: to ensure clients feel fully informed and 100% confident in every decision — never pressured.

Known by colleagues and friends alike for being loyal, dependable and fun, she is always willing to go the extra mile. Outside of real estate, you’ll often find her tending to her collection of over 100 plants, walking her beloved pup or rearranging artwork in her condo. Passionate about giving back, Benton also supports causes dedicated to saving and protecting animals.
