Welcome to Belcher Real Estate!
Everything you should know about me
Although I have always been around Real Estate my entire life, I officially began my career in 2001. From the day I was born, I have been learning the tools of the trade. My Father and Grandfather owned a Real Estate Company together in Texas, where I was raised. In 1989 my family moved to Stafford County, where my father managed Mount Vernon’s Commercial Division. In 1991 my father decided to start his own business and bought a small Real Estate Company, Pates Realty. Pates Realty was established in 1955 and became Green-Pates Realty in 1991. Over the next decade, my father and Mr. Pates continued expanding the small-town, locally-owned business. In 2000, Mr. Pates retired from Real Estate, and the company became Green & Associates Realty. In early 2001, my father asked me to join his company. I went to school, received my Realtors License, and began my actual training. I learned how to buy and sell property, manage an office, and refine my “people skills” from my father and the other seasoned office agents. Unfortunately, in 2006, my father passed away in a plane crash, and I quickly went from learning to actually managing an office. I soon completed all my brokerage classes and, before the end of the year, became a fully licensed Broker in the state of Virginia. Through 2008 I continued to grow the business, but with the decline in the economy, we decided to merge with a larger company.
From 2008-2010 I managed the Fredericksburg Branch of Champion Homes Realty while helping them grow the brand throughout Northern Virginia. 2010 was a busy year: I helped open a branch in Richmond, VA, received my Broker’s license in Maryland, and helped open a branch in Baltimore. In 2013 I decided to leave Champion Homes Realty and opened a local branch of a small Virginia Beach firm. However, in early 2014, I decided I was tired of franchise-style companies and wanted to return to my roots, the small, genuinely Independent Brokerages my father and grandfather taught me to love. I found over the years that many companies are more worried about the bottom line and less about customer service. I wanted the opposite to be true. Both my father and grandfather lived by the adage, “Large Enough to Serve You, Small Enough to Know You.” That means that I can still compete with the big guys and give you the majority of the same tools, but happy customers and clients are more important. I wanted to bring personal service back to the Real Estate world. I work hard for every client, no matter how big or small, and I am always a phone call away. My business survives and grows on referrals and repeat business.
Recently I decided to join one of the fastest growing Brokerages in Virginia, Belcher Real Estate and I took some time during the pandemic to give back to my community. I joined the Spotsylvania Volunteer Rescue Squad and became a volunteer EMT. While continuing selling homes I managed to put in over 1000 hours of volunteer time within my first year and was awarded BLS (Basic Life Support) provider of the year. I work hard for every client, no matter how big or how small and I am always a phone call away. My business survives and grows on referrals and repeat business.
