William Crane

Taylor Properties

Born and raised in Santa Barbara, California, Will Crane relocated to Washington, D.C., to pursue dual majors in American Studies and Geography at George Washington University. His academic focus on the historical development of Washington's alley dwellings laid the foundation for his deep understanding of the area’s unique real estate landscape. In 2000, Will purchased his first home in the Foggy Bottom Historic District under the District’s Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act and subsequently earned his Realtor's sales license in 2003. Will brings a unique perspective to his clients, structuring winning deals that cater to their specific needs and desires. Committed to providing a personal touch, he uses a single agent representative model, ensuring that when you call, text, or email, it’s always Will who responds. The fast-paced local market demands direct communication, and Will's approach ensures clients receive immediate, data-driven responses based on his extensive research background. Will firmly believes successful real estate transactions are deeply intertwined with clients' life circumstances and future goals, both known and yet to be discovered. His personal experience and dedication allow him to guide clients through every step of the process with insight and empathy. In today’s AI-driven, automated, and interconnected world, client confidentiality and data protection are paramount. Will holds an E-Pro certification from the National Association of Realtors, equipping him with advanced digital marketing skills and training on data security strategies for safeguarding private information. This enhances his ability to protect his clients' interests and handle transactions with the utmost care. Will collaborates with leading real estate platforms such as Homes.com and Realtor.com, and is a Showcase agent with Zillow. These partnerships provide his clients with maximum exposure and the latest market insights. By meeting clients within the platforms they are already using, Will ensures they make informed decisions coupled with an agent proficient in local data sources such as BrightMLS and jurisdictional databases. Beyond his professional life, Will loves exploring the hidden gems of the greater Washington area. Residing in a Foggy Bottom alley dwelling built in 1887 with his German Shepherd, Kai, Will serves as Vice President of the Foggy Bottom Association and chairs the Infrastructure Committee. To fully unwind, you might find him sailing on the Chesapeake Bay in his ex-Olympic class sailboat or navigating the Leeward Islands of French Polynesia—although Will truly believes “The Greatest Monument in Washington is the One You Call Home.”
