🎉 Exciting News!

I'm excited to share that I've expanded my real estate services and am now a licensed Real Estate Broker in North Carolina with eXp Realty!

This is an exciting milestone that allows me to better serve clients on both sides of the Virginia–North Carolina line. Whether you're buying your first home, selling your current one, searching for land, or planning a relocation, I'm here to make the process as smooth and informed as possible. Yes, I'm also still with Hometown Realty for the Virginia side as well!

Many of my clients already live, work, or have family in both states, so this new license means I can help them seamlessly through every step of their move—without having to hand them off to another agent.

If you've been thinking about making a move in southeastern Virginia or northeastern North Carolina, I'd love the opportunity to help.

🏡 Isle of Wight County Market Update | April–June Comparison

The latest numbers are in, and they tell an interesting story about the Isle of Wight real estate market.

📈 Home values reached their highest point in June, with the median sales price climbing to $506,000 after hovering around the mid-$400,000s in April and May.

🏠 Buyer activity also picked up, with closed sales increasing from 34 in April to 54 in June—a sign that more buyers are moving forward despite today's market conditions.

⏳ Homes are taking a little longer to sell, with median days on market increasing from 12 days in April to 30 days in June. That's still a relatively quick timeline and gives buyers a bit more breathing room while allowing sellers to attract motivated purchasers.

📉 Inventory continues to tighten, with the months' supply dropping from 5.3 months in April to 3.2 months in June. Fewer months of inventory often means increased competition for well-priced homes.

What does this mean?

✅ For Sellers: Rising prices and shrinking inventory can create a strong opportunity if you're thinking about listing your home.

✅ For Buyers: More homes sold and new listings coming to market mean there are opportunities—but being prepared and acting quickly on the right home is still important.

Every market has a story, and local data tells it better than national headlines.

If you're wondering what these trends mean for your home's value or your buying plans, I'd be happy to walk through the numbers with you. If you are thinking of buying or selling in the next 12 months, give me a call and let's get planning!

🌳 Thinking about buying land and building your own home?

Building a home is exciting, but buying the land is much more than finding a pretty piece of property.

I've been through the process myself, and I know the questions that come up before you ever break ground.

Things like:
🏡 Is the land buildable?
📏 Are there easements or setbacks?
💧 Will you need a well and septic?
⚡ Are utilities available?
🚜 What site work will be required?
💰 What costs should you budget for beyond the purchase price?

These are the details that can make a big difference in your timeline, budget, and overall experience.

Whether you're dreaming of a few acres in Southampton County, a wooded lot in Sussex, land in Isle of Wight, or building your forever home somewhere in our area, I'd love to help you navigate the process.

You don't have to figure it all out on your own. From finding the right piece of land to understanding what comes next, I can help you avoid common surprises and connect you with the professionals you'll need along the way.

If building a home has been on your mind, let's have a conversation about what your first step should be.

🏡 June 2026 Isle of Wight County Real Estate Market Update

The Isle of Wight County housing market remained active in June, with strong buyer demand and a healthy number of homes changing hands.

📊 June Market Snapshot
🏠 Median Sales Price: $510,000
🔑 Closed Sales: 51
💲 Median Price per Square Foot: $208
🆕 New Listings: 89
📅 Median Days on Market: 31
🏡 Active Listings: 168
📦 Months Supply of Inventory: 3.3
✅ Sellers Received: 99.3% of List Price

What does this mean?

For Sellers
If you've been wondering whether it's still a good time to sell, the answer is yes. Homes are selling for 99.3% of their asking price, showing that well-priced, well-presented homes continue to attract serious buyers. With just 3.3 months of inventory, we're still in a market that generally favors sellers, although buyers have more choices than they did a year ago.

For Buyers
The good news is that 89 new listings came on the market in June, giving buyers more opportunities to find the right home. While inventory is improving, desirable homes are still moving in about 31 days, so being prepared with financing and a plan can make a big difference.

Bottom Line

This is a healthy, competitive market. Sellers are seeing excellent returns, while buyers have more options than they've had in recent months. Success in today's market isn't about timing it perfectly—it's about understanding your local market and having a strategy.

If you're thinking about buying, selling, or just curious about what your home might be worth, I'd be happy to help you understand what these numbers mean for your specific situation.

✅ For Buyers:
With approximately 6 months of inventory, buyers have more breathing room than they've had in recent years. More choices and less competition can make it easier to find the right home without feeling rushed.
