• A recently divorced woman was facing foreclosure. Her home required repairs that she could not afford. We stopped the foreclosure, made the repairs, and put it on the market. Within a few weeks, her house was sold. We were paid back and saved her credit!
• One couple went on a month-long vacation. While away, a tree fell on the roof during a heavy storm. Their house and belongings were completely saturated with water and mold had grown over everything. Their insurance did not cover the repairs leaving them heartbroken, so they contacted us. Their house was purchased “as is” so they could start the next phase of their life.
• A gentleman started a major renovation project, then was suddenly transferred out of the area requiring him to move immediately. His renovation incomplete, he had no time to sell traditionally. We completed the project and sold the house; were paid back and split the profit.
• After 30 years of managing an investment property, a couple was ready to retire. They did not want to deal with updating or a traditional sale nor did they want to deal with their lifetime of possessions. Their property went under contract “as is” within two weeks; settled in 2 months leaving the possessions they no longer wanted to keep. With cash in hand, they were able to move to their new home.
These are just a few of the true stories of people just like you whom we have provided options and helped out of their seemingly impossible situation.

A lifelong Northern Virginia resident, Cheryl Hanback, founder of Real Property Options, has deep family roots in the region. Born in Alexandria, Cheryl comes from a family with a rich local history. Her great-grandfather, Frank Michelbach, founded Michelbach's Furniture Store on King Street in Old Town Alexandria in 1904, a landmark business that served the community until 1977.
Cheryl's family has long been connected to the area's growth and development. One grandmother worked at the Torpedo Factory during World War II, while several family members were employed at Potomac Yard, reflecting generations of dedication to the Northern Virginia community.
After graduating from T.C. Williams High School, Cheryl attended Virginia Tech. While there, she completed the required coursework and passed the examination to earn her real estate license in 1977.
She began her career with her father's companies, Builders and Developers Realty and The Builders Group, where she gained extensive experience in land sales, site selection for national tenants, rezoning presentations, project development, and marketing. Working alongside architects, engineers, developers, and business owners provided her with a strong foundation in real estate and property development.
Since 1990, Cheryl has been a consistent Top Producer and Associate Broker, representing buyers and sellers through respected brokerages including Long & Foster, Redfin, and Samson Properties.
With more than $250 million in sales and over 500 successful transactions, Cheryl has learned that many property owners face circumstances that require solutions beyond the traditional real estate process.
