Real estate is not about just finding or selling a home it is about understanding areas, being an expert in your community, listening to others' needs, creating relationships, and giving customers the best experience possible. I consider myself a “people person” and helping people is a passion. I am certain that Coastal Virginia has everything anyone could possibly need from its rich historic neighborhoods to its sprawling new construction, there is truly something for everyone. From the beach to the inner cities there are an abundance of different neighborhoods and home styles that cater to all buying needs. I am passionate about investing, whether helping first time buyers understand the importance and value of purchasing real estate or adding long term investments to a growing portfolio with seasoned buyers- I feel incredibly blessed to work with amazing clients who become friends and a strong part of my network. I am a proud member of a team with a reputation for excellent negotiation skills, powerful connections, cutting-edge marketing, and invaluable friendships, both locally and globally. Whether a buyer, a seller, or an investor, myself and my team think of our clients as family. Lean on us—we are here to keep the process fluid, successful, and as low-stress as possible.

"Working with Julie was a breeze. I explained what I was looking for, we searched properties, spent a couple of days viewing prospects, decided and within two weeks I was moving into my new home. I couldn’t have done it without her. I love that she stays connected, and I won’t hesitate to call on her again."

Julie and her team truly embody the saying that, “Time is the most important thing you can give someone.” Julie worked with me to find my first home and I couldn’t be more happy with my decision to choose Julie as my realtor for my first home purchase, and future home purchases.
