HAS YOUR LISTING EXPIRED?
You hired an agent who assured you they could sell your home. Your Listing Agreement Term has gone by...your home did not sell.. it's now an "expired listing". Agents are now phoning you, filling your mailbox and knocking on your door.
"What went wrong?" "Was it my agent?" "Was it my price?" "Was the market slow?" "Is something wrong with my house?" "Something wrong with the neighborhood?"
These are the questions most home sellers ask when their home didn’t sell.
The truth is that the agent you hired failed you. They did not get the job done. You have every right to be upset. And to be afraid, and confused. I’ve spent many years working Expired Listings - and have an extremely high success rate with getting these homes back on the market and SOLD!
My success just to name a few comes from:
What makes me different than other agents….
If you’re still not convinced….keep reading!
With thousands of dollars at stake, you must get the right agent. Maybe you've learned the hard way that fancy brochures and hundred-point marketing plans aren't the answer. What are the important qualities to look for in your next agent?
Take a deep breath. Relax a little bit. Then call me, and together we will get your home sold!

My success just to name a few comes from:
- Knowledge of the market and current events
- Education and Experience
- Local and National Advertising
- Ability to educate my Sellers and Buyers
- Offering Cutting-Edge Technology
- Customer Service
What makes me different than other agents….
- You personally work with me from List to Close – you will not be assigned to a Team Member. I have a Transaction Coordinator who assists me with all the behind-the-scenes tasks required and a Buyer’s Agent who works with my Buyers allowing me to focus on my Sellers and their homes!
- I’m a Full Time, Full Service, Experienced and Educated Residential REALTOR® with a Virginia Brokers License.
- I only take 5 to 7 Listings at a time to be able to give you and your home the attention it requires to get it listed, marketed and under contract to closed.
- Your Home will be on 2 Multiple Listing Services – REIN (Hampton Roads) and Central Virginia Regional (Richmond) MLS which markets it to those looking to relocate as well.
- Giving Back to the Community: Elizabeth makes a Donation to a local charity i.e. Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters - Developmental Pediatrics or an Autism Awareness Group on every Closed Transaction.
If you’re still not convinced….keep reading!
- The real estate market is active and there is a shortage of homes in all price ranges especially in the $200 - $400K price points making it a Seller’s Market. This price range is where many of your 1st time buyers, move-up buyers and your move-down buyers are looking for their homes. Therefore we have a shortage of homes for the majority of home buyers looking to buy right now.
- Buyers are out and plentiful in the market place and homes are selling within days with multiple offers, escalation clauses and some really creative offers from buyers.
- Through my experience I’ve learned it’s not your home that kept it from selling but the lack of an aggressive and innovative marketing plan that allowed it to fail in getting successful results.
- We still have historically low interest rates, Foreclosures right now are almost non-existent and my Lenders have money to loan! New programs and Grants are being developed to assist Buyers in today’s market.
With thousands of dollars at stake, you must get the right agent. Maybe you've learned the hard way that fancy brochures and hundred-point marketing plans aren't the answer. What are the important qualities to look for in your next agent?
- Respect: This includes communication skills, one who cares, listens, and lets you know what is happening. It also includes honesty and integrity, an agent who will shoot straight with you, and work with principles and decency.
- Trustworthiness and Relatability: Look for confidence, not cockiness. Make sure you are comfortable with your agent, and that you feel free to express yourself honestly.
- Results-oriented: An agent who knows how to deliver results, getting you the best amount of money in the best time frame for you, with the least amount of hassle. A hard-working, aggressive, business-minded agent who has your best interest at heart.
- Leadership: It is your "boat", but you need someone to steer, to captain the ship. An agent who will work wholeheartedly focused on getting you the result you expect and deserve.

Hear what other Expired Sellers say...
Then we heard from Elizabeth, realtor, and took another chance. So glad we did because she came in and offered the best options for getting our home out there to be shown and also with the best competitive pricing. Elizabeth is so personable and explains all aspects of the selling process. There was no question she could not or would not answer and before we knew it, our home was officially on the market and in the running! Then, of course, we went shopping for the perfect home to meet our own personal needs. Elizabeth was able to provide many selections and personally walked with us through each of the homes. Several months ago, we had to make a decision regarding the sale of our home. We were in a two story but due to health changes, needed to be in a single level. We placed our home on the market and there it sat for 6 months. We were a little discouraged as the Market had not been all that favorable. We were thinking of other options such as remodeling which we really did not want to do as this was not only expensive but would not fully meet our future needs. Her professional experience was quite helpful when looking at potential homes, positives and negatives. Of course, our home sold! which afforded us the opportunity to purchase the right home for us. Elizabeth was there through the selling and buying process. This in itself can be complicated with two ongoing contracts, but Elizabeth was there every step of the way. We are sure there were times she could have lost patience as we had so many questions and concerns, but Elizabeth was never deterred from her goal which was seeing our that our goals were met. If you are looking for someone with the experience and ability to guide you through the selling or buying process of a home, Elizabeth is the one to have in your corner. In this ever-changing market of real estate, you need the best person to bring you through the maze. Elizabeth can and will help you!

"It is my great pleasure to write this letter of recommendation in reference to Elizabeth. When my husband and I decided we were ready to sell our home, we chose a friend and neighbor to represent us. Due to a novice agent and drastic market change, we were not prepared for the long, grueling process that was in front of us. Unfortunately, after 6 months, our home didn't sell and we lost our friendship in the process. When we had to make a decision for a new representative, my husband and I researched to find someone with a consistent selling record, who was personable, responsible and experienced enough to ease our fears and make the process of selling our home a quick and pleasant one. Even though Elizabeth is consistently ranked in the Top 5% of agents in the Richmond Market, an assistant didn't contact us - she personally responded to my message. We were impressed right away with her extensive and aggressive marketing plan; understanding of our dwindling time as well as financial situation; and ability to distinguish exactly what was important to us. She is a professional with fantastic people skills who is energetic, direct, accessible and perceptive. She gave sound advice and always found time to check in by phone and offer us encouragement. In an impossible to sell market, Elizabeth maintained her professional demeanor, friendliness and "can do" attitude and sold our home within 4 months at a price that was within our range. We highly recommend Elizabeth as a fine real estate agent and above all, an honest, professional and quality person. She is truly exceptional!"
