Why sellers work with me
Marketing, communication, and real support behind you.
Marketing-First Strategy
My background in real estate photography and media shapes how I approach every listing. All of the real estate photos and video shown on this website were created by me personally, not outsourced or borrowed. The goal is simple: stronger presentation, more buyer attention, and a better launch from day one.
Fast, Direct Communication
You work with me directly throughout the process, with quick responses, clear updates, and one main point of contact.
Long and Foster Support
I am a focused agent, not a team juggling 20 listings. When additional resources are needed, I draw on the Long and Foster Grove office, the number one real estate office in the CVR MLS, and their broader Richmond network.
Questions
Seller FAQ.
Is the consultation free?
Yes, completely. No obligation, and no follow-up if it is not the right fit.
Can I book my consultation online?
What makes your listings different from other agents?
Do you have people you recommend for repairs or cleanup before listing?
Absolutely! If your home needs repairs, cleanup, or small updates before launch, I can connect you with trusted local contractors and service providers. That makes it easier to get the home ready without having to figure everything out on your own.
Do you give pricing before seeing the home?
What media is included with every listing?
Professional photography is always included. Video, a Zillow 3D tour, and drone are added when you are comfortable using them. Buyers browse homes online before they ever see them in person, and stronger presentation drives more attention early.
Do you use social media to promote my listing?
Yes, and it starts with where buyers actually search. Your listing will appear on Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, Trulia, Homes.com, and more. Those portals are where most buyers find homes. Beyond that, Facebook and Instagram are the two platforms where listing video consistently performs well, and I use both. I also leverage the Long and Foster social media network for additional reach. The focus is always on your home, not on building my brand.
Where do you work in the Richmond area?
I serve the Greater Richmond area, including the city, Henrico, Chesterfield, Short Pump, Midlothian, Glen Allen, and surrounding communities.
What if I am not ready to sell yet?
An early conversation often leads to better decisions. A consultation does not commit you to anything, and there is no expectation to move on any particular timeline.

You Decide How Your Home Is Sold
At Compass, we believe selling your home should feel as personal and considered as the home itself. Our 3-Phased Marketing Strategy offers distinct pathways that are crafted to align with your goals, your timing, and your vision.
To help you make the most informed decision, we’ve outlined all available options in our disclosure form:
How Your Home Appears on Real Estate Websites
Other platforms hurt homeowners by displaying negative insights that can devalue your home. At Compass, we put homeowners first.
Eliminate Days on Market History Risk
The longer your home sits on the market, the more it can be seen as undesirable or overpriced, potentially reducing buyer interest and lowering the final sale price.

Three Strategic Launches, One Exceptional Sale
Sell on Your Terms
The Compass 3-Phased Marketing Strategy provides convenience, flexibility, and control over your timeline.
Home Not Market-Ready?
Renovations and staging take time and can delay your ability to list.
OUR SOLUTION
Listing first as a Compass Private Exclusive buys you time. Begin testing your price with a select audience and attract buyer interest while your home updates are still underway.
Don’t Want A Public Open House?
Hosting traditional open houses often means giving up your time, comfort, and privacy.
OUR SOLUTION
Preview your home to serious buyers and build demand by listing as a Coming Soon — so you can schedule private showings on your own terms, without the stress of open house foot traffic.
