If you bought a home during the 2021 frenzy, today’s market may feel very different — but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Many Richmond homeowners are sitting on more equity than they realize, even as buyers become more thoughtful and inspections make a comeback.

The strategy that worked in 2021 isn’t the strategy that works now.

Shoot me a DM or comment “PLAN” if you want to talk through what selling in today’s market could actually look like for you.

No one sets out to leave money on the table.

But I see it all the time—
list high, hope it sticks, and plan to negotiate down.

The problem? That strategy usually does the opposite.
When a home is priced too high out of the gate, buyers hesitate. Showings slow. And the leverage you thought you had starts to slip.

The homes getting the strongest results right now aren’t the ones “testing the market”—they’re the ones positioned to create competition from day one.

More eyes. More urgency. Better offers. ✨

If selling is on your radar this year, it’s worth getting the strategy right upfront.

DM me and we’ll map it out together. 🗺️

Richmond in the spring—when everything’s in bloom… including the air. 🤧

It’s not what people move here for, but it is part of the deal. Every great location has trade-offs and this just happens to be one of them in RVA.

The good news? Most of what actually matters in a home lasts waaaaay longer than pollen season.

If you’re thinking about making a move to Richmond, I’ll walk you through all of it—the obvious things AND the ones no one mentions. 💛

Most people start their home search focused on bedrooms, square footage, and price.

But what they’re really looking for?
A place where life actually fits a little better.

- More space to gather.
- More room for the traditions that somehow keep growing.
- A home that doesn’t feel like you’ve outgrown it the minute you settle in.

If that’s been on your mind lately, it might be worth exploring what your next move could look like.

DM me “home” and I’ll help you get started.

i’m Kris McDonough, a Richmond, Virginia real estate agent focused on helping you find the backdrop for your life—and all the memories that come with it.
