Description
Central Virginia Real Estate Helping Families Interested in Buying, Selling, or Relocating to Fort Lee, Petersburg, Colonial Heights, Hopewell, Dinwiddie, Chesterfield, Prince George, or Chester.

Welcome to South Central Virginia:

The Central Virginia real estate market is located in the area known as the Tri-Cities and centered on the Appomattox River about 25 miles south of Richmond. The Tri-City area includes the three independent cities of Petersburg, Colonial Heights, and Hopewell, and portions of the adjoining counties of Chesterfield, Dinwiddie, and Prince George. Other communities located in the Tri-Cities include the Town of Chester and Fort Lee Military Base.

In over two decades as a Central Virginia Real Estate agent and an Associate Broker; I’ve come to find a healthy balance.  I am passionate about what I do, but am just as passionate (and even more so) about my family!  In a world of fast-paced, non-stop living and a very competitive line of work; I’ve found the way to be the best at what I do is to stop. 

Now that may sound counter-cultural, but my personal philosophy is to provide real service to my clients.  I take the time to stop and truly listen to each of my clients needs.  I use my experience and expertise to determine the best course of action for their specific situation.  Whether a client is concerned about the sale of their home, or are a first time home buyer; I want to ensure each step of the process is communicated in a clear way, and that we’re all on the same page.  I don’t want to provide a generic answer, but a solution that is customized for each client.

My professional balance is found in my foundational support system:  my family.  I am blessed to have married my wife Lisa in 1981, and to have two great children Andrew and Ashley.  I know that at the end of the day, I’ll have their love and support and that makes what I do even more rewarding.  Although being in real estate means being on call nearly 24/7; I’ve discovered that taking moments to stop and spend quality time with my family is vital to my personal and professional success!  Throughout the years, I’ve been involved with coaching various sports for my son and daughter.  We’ve also placed a priority on family vacations as that time gives us all an opportunity to reconnect and refresh!  Of course, behind many great families is a dog.  Ours happens to be a Maltese named Chester; whom has seemed to be the missing link that completed the May family!

Because I’ve found a healthy balance; my professional life has flourished.  I have worked hard to receive designations that allow me to be more effective in serving my clients.  I also am involved with various Real Estate Associations that give me the opportunity for endless resources and the latest in cutting edge technology and real estate practices.  My continual education and forward thinking on real estate keeps me in tune with the industry and provides me with the skills to offer the service that my clients deserve.

Another asset for my clients is my local experience.  I was born in Dinwiddie County and haven’t moved since!  My knowledge of the area, its neighborhoods, communities and what they have to offer is a key element in matching clients up with the home of their dreams.  It also allows me to have an excellent handle on what sellers in the area can anticipate, and I can clearly communicate appropriate expectations to them.  I’ve also found my interest in buying homes, renovating them and renting them out gives me a chance to see all sides of real estate.  I truly believe that real estate is a savvy investment and enjoy helping my clients experience this personal financial venture as they buy or sell a home in Central Virginia. 

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and learn more about me and my services!  I would be happy answer any questions you have about the Central Virginia Real Estate market or to help you walk through each step of the home buying or selling process!

Buyers:

Whether you're looking for your first home, your dream home or an investment property, I'm committed to providing you with the highest quality buyer service. When making the type of investment that buying a home requires, you deserve to have all the latest market information and the very best advice, both of which I can provide you with.

Buying a home is an exciting and complex adventure! But it can be a very time-consuming and costly if you are not familiar with all aspects of the process and don't have all the best information and resources at hand.

One of my specialties is representing "your" best interests  throughout the home buying process. My comprehensive, high-quality services can save you time and money, as well as make the experience more enjoyable and less stressful. If you are like most people, buying a home is the biggest investment you will ever make.

So whether you're buying a starter home, your dream home or an investment property, why not take advantage of my experience as a local market expert and make the most informed decisions you can, every step of the way?

 

Sellers:

The decision to sell a home is often dependent on many factors. Whatever your reasons are for selling, my proven effective marketing strategies will ensure that you get the highest possible price for your home. I guarantee to provide you with professional, ethical and confidential service and keep you fully informed every step of the way.

For most families, their home is their largest financial asset, and deciding to sell it is a big decision that involves a lot of preparation and work. When you're ready to sell it's important to have an experienced real estate professional handle the details involved in the successful sale of a home for top dollar.

As an experienced professional who has helped many Property Owners sell their homes, I know how to handle every aspect of the sales process - from strategically marketing and showcasing your home to making sure everything's signed, sealed and delivered by the closing date.

Providing you with comprehensive, high-quality listing service is my top priority. So when you decide to sell your home, please contact me and let's get started!
