“James served as our buyer's agent and he has a wealth of knowledge and expertise about the areas in which were looking in the Richmond suburbs and we weren't at all familiar with these areas so it was inordinately helpful. He's amazingly responsive and very forthright. He's also an excellent negotiator. He will work hard for you. I highly recommend James Strum.”

“Tad Reynolds was great to work with when purchasing my home. He made the whole process quick and easy. Would highly recommend!”
“Working with Ty was great! He is very laid back and was very patient with us throughout our journey of finding a home. He made himself available to us on our multiple trips to the Richmond area as we were traveling from two hours away. He let us go at our own pace and was ready for us when we were. Highly recommend!”
“Mr. Anthony Brumfield exceeded my expectations! He was very profesional, thorough, and attentive to my family's needs. I would defintely use his services again and again. In fact, a few weeks after closing, I referred a family member to him. Thank you, Mr. Brumfield! Job well done!!!”
“Karen was amazing. She had a great attitude, was very personable, knowledgeable and honest. This was my first time purchasing a home and she guided me and kept me inform throughout the process. Even when things were unclear and I felt as if the deal would not go through Karen communicated with all that were involved to ensure that the deal was closed!”
“Aaron Gilbert was a pleasure to work with. He sold our house in 3 days. He did things above and beyond the call of duty. I would recommend him to anyone selling a house.”
“I enjoyed working with Connie from the start. She is professional & well-versed in all things real estate. She guided me through the process which was ripe with delays and challenges. Very pleased with your referral!”
“Mr. Hardy was dedicated and diligent as well as professional in handling the sale of my home. I would without reservation recommend Mr. Hardy for future real estate issues to family and others. Mr. Hardy is a real estate agent extraordinaire.”
“This was the second property we have both purchased and sold with Sandi Crawford as our real estate agent. Throughout all aspects of the transaction, Sandi expertly represented us and our best interests. She helped us see how undervalued the sales had been in our neighborhood and helped us sell for top of market. We receive a full list offer in under 48-hours (with 6 others as backups!) and with inspection repairs waived by the purchaser. Sandi helped us choose the perfect time to list our home when it was able to get the most recognition on the market, and showed us how we could reach our financial objectives with the sale. I would absolutely recommend Sandi Crawford to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, as she is the utmost professional in all aspects of what a real estate agent should be. She understands her numbers, understands her market, and understand her people! A+++ representation, start-to -inish!”
“Because I was trying to do a long distance short sale, I needed someone who really knew what they were doing. I was given the name and number of Colin. He took on the challenge and a little over two years later, we finally closed. If you have done a short sale before, it is a very trying ordeal! Colin took good care of the house, had repairs done, and always had clients waiting in line with a new contract. I believe it was the 5th contract and a lot of patience that got us to closing.”
“You were prompt and friendly. Nancy Shiley is the best home agent we have ever encountered. She is amazing. Went out of her way many times to find us just the right home. She is a gem.”

In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be steady. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this November.
