    Selling Your Eastern Shore Home?

    Two Paths, Real Numbers.

    List for top dollar, or sell to me directly — as-is, no showings, no commission. Either way, you see both numbers in writing from one licensed local broker with 40+ years in Virginia.

    Standard residential listing: 2.5%. No other fees.

    It's the first thing every seller asks, so it's the first thing I answer. Here's exactly what that buys you.

    Local Across the Eastern Shore

    Chincoteague, Captain's Cove, Accomack County, and Northampton County — same person, same two paths: list at 2.5% or sell to me directly, with both numbers in writing.

    Chincoteague Island

    Selling a lot, land, or an island home? I build here, so land is priced from real numbers — and a well-run listing is still on the table if it nets you more.

    Captain's Cove

    When carrying costs outweigh the use, there are two clean ways out. I price from actual Cove transactions, not county-wide averages.

    Sell Your Captain's Cove Property

    Accomack County

    Homes, farms, and waterfront across the county. List for top dollar or take a written as-is offer — both numbers in front of you before you decide.

    Sell Your Accomack County Home

    Northampton County

    The same full-service listing or direct purchase, from Cape Charles down to the county line. Same fee — 2.5%, no add-ons — same written numbers.
