We have had dealings with Old Dominion Realty involving two homes since January 2021, one a purchase and two a sale. Juaquadia Howard, our agent, was quick to tell us she was new in the real estate business. My son had worked with Juaquadia previously in another profession and he had grown to admire her abilities. Juaquadia was very attentive to the multiple needs that we had since both housess needed a great deal of work. Living in Richmond, I had to rely on Juaquadia and Old Dominion for more advice and help than might generally have been the case. She and her company were immensely helpful in recommending contractors and companies to do the work, inspections, etc., that were required for each house. She was always accessible and accommodating for my long-distance assistance. We were pleased with the recommendations of our agent (and Charles) to add a second bathroom to the house. At first, we thought that was more than we wanted to take on but we believe now that the additional bathroom was the reason for the quick sale and the escalation of the sale price. Again, the contractor was a recommendation of Old Dominion and his company worked on both houses. I told Juaquadia that she and I had learned a lot as this was a new experience for me. I believe she probably learned that owners want the property shown in the best light. She added touches to the sale house to help make it look homey. Maybe there was a reason for the late termite inspection but we found out the day before closing that the sale house had termites and carpenter bees that, of course, we had to deal with immediately. Juaquadia says she really enjoys real estate. She had challenges with these two sales because of the work required and the long distance complication of owners and purhasers being from out of town. We are very appreciative of our help from Old Dominion and Juaquadia. I especially liked working with the closing company that she uses and much preferred that over a more lengthy and expensive closing with a Richmond law firm on a previous purchase. We wish her the best of luck in her real estate career.
