"Mindy came highly recommended by a coworker and we are so glad that we found her! As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions and weren't very familiar with certain parts of the process. Mindy was so helpful and reassuring throughout the whole process. She got us in to view multiple homes within a day of us contacting her, even in the midst of the pandemic, and spent a whole afternoon doing showings with us. She was very patient and accommodating as well when we changed our minds about homes we wanted to see. She responded promptly to all of our communications, even after normal business hours, which ended up being crucial to us getting our contract. She stayed in contact with every party involved in the process (lender, inspector, title company, and home warranty company) and took care of all of the details so that we didn't have to worry about anything. She also provided great advice and insights based on her own experience to make sure that we got the best services possible. On top of all of that, Mindy is amazingly generous and kind. She treated us like friends from the very beginning and truly went the extra mile to make us feel that we were valued. She has even checked in with us a few times after we closed to make sure everything is going well. Overall, Mindy's expertise and manner put us at ease throughout what can be a very stressful process. I will be recommending Mindy to anyone I know who is looking to buy in the Greater Richmond area from now on!"

"I met Chuck while visiting one of his listings I found online.  He was very knowledgeable and enjoyable to be around so I decided to give him a call back as I was looking at some other properties.  After that, I spent about a year looking at houses because I am very picky and Chuck stuck with me the whole way and was very helpful throughout the entire process.  I didn't quite know what I wanted but I knew I looking for something very specific that had to be something special.  He probably showed me 30 to 50 houses throughout my search, never loosing patience or interest in my feedback.   He made recommendations based on his knowledge of the area and was happy to show me anything I found on the internet as well.  I often felt like he was just as interested in seeing the houses as I was.  He even worked with my schedule squeezing in showings when we could find time.   
My favorite thing about searching for houses with Chuck was that he is very laid back and fun to be around.  He provides the professional knowledge and experience you want from a Realtor without ever pressuring me to make a decision.  I always felt like I was visiting with one of my friends that happened to be a real estate professional and had a key to all the houses.  
I finally found a house that I loved and he jumped on it.  Less than a month later we closed.  I had to do almost nothing accept get my documents together for the loan, show up to closing, and move my stuff into my new house.  It's been 5 months now since I moved in and Chuck still keeps in touch and is very helpful with answering any questions I've had about being a homeowner.  He's even stopped by a few times to see how things are going and deliver paperwork so I didn't have to go pick it up from the closing attorney.  
I would highly recommend Chuck if you're looking to buy or sell a house!

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Some appraisers hold a Member of the Appraisal Institute designation. This accolade is the highest credential property appraisers can earn. An MAI appraisal is typically used for commercial properties.

While your lender will likely recommend an appraiser, you can also hire a professional home appraiser on your own. Choose someone who is experienced in your type of residential property, and ensure they hold all of the necessary credentials that your state or region requires.

If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump. 

Ensures accurate valuation reflecting current market conditions, assisting in financial decisions.

Foundation cracks won’t always affect your appraised value. All foundations crack due to normal settlement, so hairline cracks that aren’t leaking or uneven from side to side are unlikely to have an impact on your appraisal. Structural cracks, on the other hand, often lead to a reduced appraised value, especially if the underlying problem will cause the issue to worsen over time.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.
