About Me
Licensed in 1988, I have had the pleasure of working in the real estate industry coast to coast and sea to shining sea, thanks to my husband military career. Recently retired from military service, we call Hampton Roads Virginia home. I can identify with the unique situations and stress that military families face with each and every new duty station. I have several industry designations and continue to educate myself as real estate laws and contracts evolve. Each and every transaction is different and I believe that is why I have retained such passion and joy for all things realestate. I am active in the Great Dane Rescue as well as the Chesapeake Bay Retreiver Rescue. I love what I do both professionally and personally.

Ron Huggler, Home Buyer in Texas

Where are the safest places to live in Newport News in a single family home? Surrounding areas any safer?

Asked Sat May 24 2008, 08:48 by Ron Huggler  -  Newport News  -  Home Buying  -  8 answers
Anne Needles answered:
You can get the crime stats by going to the Law Enforcement websites in each of the areas you are interested in. There are wonderful neighborhoods throughout Hampton Roads and what is "good" to some may not be to others. It truly is up to each individual person. I always advise potential buyers to visit areas at different times of the day and I encourage them to knock on doors and ask questions that are on your mind. Neighbors have no problem dishing on their neighborhoods. - Mon Aug 4 2008, 11:04

Julie Heffner, Home Seller in Smithfield

Relocating to Charlotte! I was offered a position in Charlotte and we HAVE to sell or rent our house ASAP.

Anne Needles answered:
You need to list your home for sale and for rent with a realtor who will price it accordingly. You need to be patient as our market has changed and continues to change on a daily basis. If your home is priced right, is in good repair , and has that WOW factor, there is no reason why your home won't sell. It does'nt hurt to add a cookie or two to entice buyers and the agents that represent them. - Mon Aug 4 2008, 10:49
Ross, Home Buyer in Atlanta

Is Smithfield, VA a good place to live and buy a house?

Asked Wed Jul 16 2008, 12:16 by Ross  -  Smithfield  -  Home Buying  -  6 answers
Anne Needles answered:
Smithfield is a great place to live but it is not for everyone. We are still considered rural. With that being said, we are about thirty minutes to Suffolk, the Peninsula, and Chesapeake. We enjoy the pace that is condusive to country living but we are only a short ride to great restaurants, shopping, beaches, museums, and all things that make Hampton Roads so desireable. Our downtown is quaint and perfect for strollling on a Sunday afternoon as well as Friday nite concerts. Homes can be a bit pricey but lots are somewhat larger than other areas around Hampton Roads. - Mon Aug 4 2008, 10:35
Ashley, Home Buyer in Smithfield

My fiance and I would like to buy a home soon, but we have just finished paying off car and other debts,

Asked Sat Jul 12 2008, 15:16 by Ashley  -  Smithfield  -  Home Buying  -  9 answers
Anne Needles answered:
Hi Ashley, Congrats on paying off your debt; nothing feels quite as good as being debt free. There are several products that can get you into a home with little or no money down. Not all lenders are created equal and your agent should be able to point you in the right direction. There is a local lender that has a great program for those interested in purchasing a home in and around the Smithfield/Isle of Wight area. I have also worked with a credit union that has a product that looks and acts like a VA loan but is really a conventional loan. There are also several first time buyer programs available to buyers in Viriginia with great rates and minimal closing costs. As far as knowing a great buyers agent.............. Give me a call, we can meet and interview each other to see if we are on the same page. Take a look/see at my profile. - Mon Aug 4 2008, 10:12

Specialties
I love working with first time buyers and sellers and believe my purpose is to educate clients on the process. It is important that each step is understood and you know what to expect during a real estate transaction. I want people that I work with to know what agency is, earnest money, escrow, just to name a few of the important aspects of a real estate transaction. Most of all, I want you to be comfortable and excited at the prospect of finding that special place you call home. I offer full service and want your experience to be exceptional. Just being good is not good enough for me!
