Rachel Morris

Rachel came into real estate with many years of experience in customer service and sales. She has a real ear for helping the client articulate goals, needs and desires. And, this same talent gives her an upper hand as a great problem solver.

She remembers the joy and the thrill of purchasing the home of her dreams, and today she thrives on seeing that joy in the eyes of her buyer clients. That’s why some of her favorite activities are guiding home buyers through the steps to a successful purchase, attending their closings, and handing them the keys to their new homes.

Because she takes the time to get acquainted and learn something of their hopes and dreams, she can ask the right questions. Answering those questions prompts her buyer clients to focus on what they really want in a home, so they’ll be happy with their choice. At the same time, considering their answers to her questions helps her sellers make the most beneficial decisions.

Rachel brings to the table a keen eye for property condition and has a second nature ability to assist the client in visualizing dreams and helping address the affordability of changes the client may want to make on a property.

Rachel loves the real estate business because she gets to work with so many different people. She loves helping families find their dream home or sell their home so they can move to other locations around Hampton Roads or around the country.

Rachel makes a serious business fun, and she treats her clients like friends and hopes to keep them as friends for a lifetime!
