She took us to places that completely fit what we were looking for and didn’t try to sell us on everything. She just let us look around. Then she gave us her honest opinion as to what she thinks would be a fair offer for that property. She works fast, and always responds to an questions ASAP.

Friendly helpful and accommodating through the entire journey. Thank you for being a part of this new Chapter Melinda.

Being a military family, we had to look at homes from afar first, and Melinda jumped right in and gave us home viewings via video call. We appreciated her honesty about properties as they pertained to our wants and needs for a home. When it comes time to move, Melinda is on our speed dial!

I couldn’t ask for anyone better to help my husband and I pick out a house. She only looks out for your best interest and just wants to make sure you are happy and love your new house.

Not only she walked us through all the steps, explained everything, repairing, every detail, but also helped coordinating all the events when we're couldn't be there! She's always on time, and respond instantly. She is very personable but not at all crossing the lines or being remotely pushy in any way, I couldn't say enough good things about her. If you need an agent you need to call her.

Robin communicated with us while we were living in another state. She is highly talented and very smart. She does a great job listening to her client’s needs and does not waste time showing properties which do not meet her client objectives. I have the highest level of confidence in her and feel she would be able to properly assess any situation and figure out and effective solution. I am so happy with the house I bought. Respectively Submitted, Sharon Dingle

Everything was scheduled promptly and she was extremely responsive to all questions throughout the buying/selling process.

Dever also was able to keep us both up to date, since my husband was already in North Carolina and I was still in New York helping my mom through chemo, it was no easy task. She listened to both our needs and happily accommodated! Dever is a self-starter and hard worker. She is very personable and considerate. She is quick to respond to any questions or concerns that you may have. We would recommend Dever to any person who is looking for a real estate agent. We do not say that lightly because we believe that whoever you recommend is also a reflection on you; therefore we would never recommend someone who we have any doubt would not follow through.

I accepted a job opportunity out of state and had to leave before selling my house. Erika did a phenomenal job representing for me. She made it easy to complete all paperwork electronically. Erika offered me recommendations for home improvements to help us solicit the highest offers. We received multiple offers over asking and appraised value. From the pre-work before listing through closing and days after Erika has been there for me supporting every step of the way. Erika coordinated with multiple contractors to schedule and complete various improvement projects. She was there to ensure work was completed fully and that appropriate documentation was provided. This was my first experience selling a home, and I am so thankful to have had Erika’s support. I could not done it without her! If your looking to buy or sell a home, I highly recommend Erika! She is dependable, punctual, and persistent! She will keep you on track and support you with any questions or concerns.

She was always available to talk with, easy to coordinate with when we wanted to see houses, and overall knowledgeable about the market and area we were shopping in.

Her people skills are the best! She listened to my needs and responded accordingly. Debbie handled long distance communications quickly and professionally even a few last minute details.

We listed our house with Robin in October and left town for several months. During that time Robin had several open house events and always went by the house to check on it during our absence. We really appreciate her outstanding work and devotion to her clients. We had a great experience, and I am pleased to recommend her and her company to anyone selling their home.

!! Erika came highly recommended by friends and she did not disappoint! She was very punctual and EXTREMELY accommodating. She guided me through two separate purchases over the course of a year (both of which were flawlessly conducted while I was out of town) and provided much needed guidance during both processes! I would absolutely recommend Erika to anyone and will 100% be contacting her again when it come time to sell!!

Went above and beyond for us throughout the whole process. The think that impressed us was that her follow through on even the smallest details was outstanding. Highly, Highly recommend her. Bill and Linda Law

She worked day and night to make my dream of becoming a home owner come true. She’s personable and her demeanor is welcoming. Whatever your needs are, she will take great care of you. I will most definitely be in touch in the future for other investments. 10/10 I highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home with a reliable and trustworthy realtor.

We were moving to the area from Florida and she made the transition so smooth! She made the time to show us houses the limited time we could be in the area to do so and she listened to our needs and found a home for us that fits our family and is beautiful! She stayed on top of everything which gave us piece of mind working from another state! She took the time to take a video during the inspection which we couldn’t be there for and she was able to get us a home warranty which we are beyond grateful for! She made the process much less stressful and we felt confident having her and those she works with in our corner! Robin took the time to answer all of our questions and responded in a timely manner, just a pleasure to work with! We are extremely grateful for all she has done and highly recommend Robin, she is fantastic!

She always made herself available, was quick to respond and kept us informed through the whole process. We loved our experience with her and our new home! Would definitely recommend!

We looked for our forever home for about 8 months. Put numerous offers in and got rejected so many times in this crazy market and she was so patient and supportive to not let us get discouraged. The wait was worth it though when we found our perfect forever home and she made the process so easy. Highly recommend!!!

She helped us find the perfect home in Chesapeake and worked hard to get us a fair deal and overcome obstacles in buying this house. I would highly recommend Robin if you need an efficient, caring, and knowledgeable agent! Thank you for everything, Robin!

I was in need of finding a place to live during the height of the covid-19 pandemic and she went above and beyond. We spent a lot of time on FaceTime, text and calls to find the perfect place. Melinda was very up front and honest through the whole process. I am so grateful to her for this whole experience. This was the first time I bought a home and she was excellent about breaking it down for me so I knew what I was doing. Thank you Melinda for everything!!! Highly recommend Melinda Swager for any home buying needs!!!

She knows her way around the realty world and guided us through it perfectly! Always responsive, always listening to what we asked and wanted and delivering every time. We purchased and sold in a crazy time and Robin really made the whole experience smooth. It is no wonder orange Luke dogs are showing up in everyone's yards... Robin is hands down, THE BEST!!!

She was always very proactive in both the selling and buying process. When we had questions (and we had a lot), she was very prompt with her response. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

We were new to the home buying process, and she was very helpful and patient with our never ending questions. We could not be happier with our new home, and Erika was a huge part of that. She sorted out all our hiccups along the way (and there were many) and that made it so much easier for us to enjoy the ride! Thank you so much!

She worked hard for me and found me my new house. She was there every step of the way and helped keep my stress level low! I'm so glad she was my agent! I would definitely recommend her!

Stewart is awesome to work with, she available to her clients during and after the purchase...Very knowledgeable and Thanks again for your support!

Thank you so much.

Since then, she consistently went "above and beyond" to ensure our home-buying experience was a good one. Professional and dedicated, she always went the extra mile to answer our questions and address our concerns. Her work on our behalf was always on-time, thorough, and accurate, and she made the process of buying our home smoother than we thought possible (we were able to close on the home less than six weeks from seeing it the first time). Give Melinda a call for any of your real estate needs!

She took care of dealing with all contractors and meeting them to get any repairs done on my home. Everything was done on time and quickly. This made everything much easier on me. I work full time and would not have been able to take care of everything myself.

Not only did Robin know the school systems, local businesses, and neighborhoods in the desired area, she also had tremendous knowledge and experience with understanding realistic home values during a price boom this area hadn't seen in quite a while. Whether you are selling or buying your next home, we would highly recommend Robin and her team at NextHome

Robin visited the house shortly after I contacted her and gave us some suggestions on repairs and an asking price prior to putting it on the market. The house went on the market on a Saturday and was under contract by that Monday. I would highly recommend Robin and her team to buy or sell a home in the tidewater area. We felt like all of our needs were met and the whole process, especially being out of state, could not have been easier.

She knows her market and was able to sell our home for full asking price in less than a day. What more can I say!!

Debbie kept me informed through the entire process of selling my mother's home. If I had questions, she had answers. When the time comes to sell my home, Debbie will be my first call.

She is informative and helpful. Our budgets have always been modest but we always feel like such a priority. Cannot recommend her enough!

She was instrumental in the process and knows the business very well. She is very knowledgeable and professional and that was appreciated by all involved in our transaction. She is calm, honest, personable and willing to help in any way. If you are selling or buying do not hesitate to use Melinda. I have recommended her to friends and will continue to do so. She’ll be my first call if I need a Realtor in the Tidewater area again.

She did everything possible to get us the fairest price and is willing to fight for her customers. Great agent and great person ! Highly recommend !

She set expectations of herself and us as a sellers. Her communication was timely and efficient. Her years of experience were very evident as she guided us through the pricing, marketing, contract negotiations and the final sale.

Our house had been on the market with another realtor (thanks to the relocation company my firm was using) for nearly two months without a single showing. After we insisted on relisting with Robin we had multiple offers in a week. My wife and I have now sold 3 homes with Robin and would never go with anyone else in Hampton Roads. She got our homes sold quickly and got us a great price every time!

She was always working hard to make sure our experience was as painless as possible. If you're looking for the right home and an awesome experience, consider Debbie!

Debbie is kind, responsive and fun to work with. She keeps it real and ensures that all of your needs are taken care of. She will help you find the perfect home!

I originally listed my home in September and received several solid offers within a couple of days. However, due to unforeseen personal circumstances, I had to remove the listing and delay the sale of my home. Debbie was very understanding, patient and maintained the same level of concern and professionalism. Throughout the delay, she reached out often to see how things were going and to offer encouragement. The house re-listed on December 8 and in less than 24 hours several offers were made. Within a couple of days I signed a contract. Debbie walked me through every step of the selling process. She explained things in a way I could easily understand, made everything simple to navigate, kept me updated on progress and was always available to answer any questions. I absolutely enjoyed working with her and highly recommend her!

People always warn you about bad realtors just wanting to make some money and being shady. This wasn’t true for Robin. When I met her she had a colored streak in her hair and drove a tiny blue VW bug that had “listed” on her license plate. Her sense of humor but me at ease. Since working with her, she was always very professional and up front with me. She gave me her honest input and recommendations that never left me uncomfortable in my decision. She was so great with helping my family and I buy a home, that we used her again to sell it 3 years later. My wife and I are so grateful of Robin. She really did make our buying/selling very easy. If the military sends us back to VA, we know who we are calling.

I would recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home in Hampton Roads!

Not only was she very knowledgeable but very down to earth and handled almost every aspect of this development with outstanding professionalism. We highly recommend Melinda and her team for anyone looking for a stress free home buying experience.

She will work very hard to sell your home or buy. She always returns calls ,texts,or email quickly. Some testament to her commitment to her work is that even on the weekends and when shes on vacation, she still answered her phone and did what she could. She really cares about her client and giving 110 percent. She is very hard working, well mannered, professional.Made the progress streamline and easy to sell our home!

Everything went very smoothly. She did a great job. Thanks Melinda!

She has been over the top amazing! With everything that went "wrong" during my process, she handled everything with expert knowledge and finesse that helped keep me calm and reassured. Thank you, Robin!

Her knowledge and expertise is over the top as well as her patience, understanding of our needs and personal attention. When it came time to sell, she fought for the best deal. We highly recommend Debbie!

She is the best in the business! Acting as my buyer's agent, here are some specific examples of how Shauna has gone above and beyond for me: • She has helped me to identify undervalued properties in the market. • She has negotiated favorable terms on purchase contracts. • She has provided me with valuable insights into the local real estate market and investment trends. I am confident that Shauna can help you to achieve your real estate investment goals. She is a true asset to any investor!

I recently purchased my home in the Virginia Beach area from out of town. She was my boots on the ground taking time to negotiate several deals before we found a perfect. I felt extremely confident in her expertise and ability to handle issues on my behalf. She answered questions at all time of night to ensure fast closing . Call her anytime day or night she is always at the ready. ..

Stewart through my neighbor. She made the home selling process seamless from listing to closing. I always appreciated her warm personality and professionalism. Thank you for being there for me while I was out of state.

She was beyond helpful throughout the entire process, keeping us focused on our goal, explaining the process, and ultimately landing our first home for our family! She made the process so easy, painless, and all-in-all fun. We would 100% recommend Renee to anyone looking for a home without a doubt. We look forward to working with Renee in the future!

She answered any and all of my questions and did not hesitate to connect me to high-quality connections throughout the process. She listened to all my wants and needs, advocated for my rights as a buyer, and made the home buying process relatively easy from start to finish. Truly, cannot recommend her highly enough!

Thank you very much for finding me the house I’ve wamted!

She was prompt with updates and helped with the scheduling of all inspections, overall she made the home buying experience easy and enjoyable. This was not my first home buying experience but it was the best. Don't hesitate to give her a call!

She is media savy and gives you the very best service and opportunity to sell your home in a timely manner. Lesa Cooley Oliver

We are very thankful that she was our agent and she made the process simple with her availability and continuous communication. She was very professional, flexible, and easy to reach, which are very valuable and admirable characteristics. Dever was also personable and honest when it came to advice as we made decisions throughout the process. Overall, we were grateful to have been able to work with Dever!

She did an amazing job making us feel confident in the houses we were interested in by giving her professional knowledge on the areas. Robin worked tirelessly to make sure we ultimately worked out a deal in the end and we’re completely taken care of before moving in. Highest recommendation I can give. Thanks again Robin, Grace and Max

I highly recommend Melinda for all your real estate needs

She helped me in every aspect she can greatly. I would go through her again without hesitation if I have the chance.

She was fast and easy to contact. I told her exactly what I wanted she got me exactly that! I will be using her to buy my home.

She worked with us , loan company and the sellers agent never leaving us uninformed. She knows how the system works and does everything she can for the client. Great job Robin!

She is trustworthy, knows her business well, is very communicable & puts her clients wants and needs at the forefront. We highly recommend her as a buying or selling agent & would definately use her again. Thanks Melinda, you’re the best!!

As first time home buyers, and having to buy our home virtually, we had a lot of questions and she walked us through every step!

I was deployed and unable to look at houses in person. Melinda looked at the houses and did a virtual showing with me. She took care of getting the inspection done and doing the final walkthrough. Without Melinda I would have been uncomfortable buying a house sight unseen

Stewart tirelessly and patiently worked on my behalf as I engaged in the process of locating and purchasing a home. She continued to operate in a professional manner and shared her knowledge of the process while taking my preferences into consideration. She is highly recommended.

She was excellent in her profession. She would be my first choice as an agent with Great Personality!!

She goes above & beyond! She made selling our home super exciting and relaxing! She takes extra time making sure everything is absolutely perfect!! She is hands down the absolute best in the business!! We highly recommend giving her a call if you are selling or buying!

She worked so hard for us by doing video walk-throughs to show is homes because we are currently stationed overseas. We had a lot of questions as first-time buyers, and she was quick to answer them all to help us though it. We found a great home, and she made the process so easy and stress free.

Erika was on top of every detail throughout the whole process and she is such a wealth of knowledge! She kept us updated every step of the way and she always went the extra mile! Erika was always prompt in responding to any questions or concerns we had whether it be through phone, email, or text. I certainly recommend Erika to anyone and everyone who’s looking for an agent!

Robin's initial assessment provided us with a list of changes we needed to make before putting the house back on the market. We followed her advice and made the suggested changes, listed the house on a Monday and had a contract by that Thursday. She is a knowledgeable professional who provided us with critical feedback that created a quick sale. If you are looking for a realtor to sell your home, we highly recommend Robin Gauthier!

!! Robin (BrokerOwner) at NextHome is the best listing agent.

She worked around the clock answering my every question to help make the process as painless as possible. I’m so grateful for her and all the hard work she poured in to me to help me get my first home!

Erika was a blessing to me in my search for a house, from beginning to end. I had a friend recommend me to her and I would recommend her to everyone I know. I appreciate all you have done. Your a great person, for such a challenging job. Thank you for making dreams come true. Sincerely Adrienne, Britney and Gabrielle

She helped us navigate through this crazy market and we secured our beautiful new construction home. You won’t be disappointed working with her as your realtor.

Fritz eagerly put me in a home that I was very satisfied with. He kept the lines of communication open during the entire process and promptly answered my many questions. For a first time buyer to a seasoned homeowner, I would recommend Fritz helping put you in your next home.

The market was very competitive and I was very picky. Erika was abreast on all of the ins and outs of the process. Very knowledgeable on the various areas of Virginia Beach and Chesapeake and the values of the properties. Erika was prompt in her responses to secure visits to various properties, which is a must in to be competitive, the properties were going really quickly. I ended up looking at 12 different properties before deciding on this one and I love it. It was worth the wait and it is perfect, exactly what I wanted. Erika was patient and supportive throughout the process. Highly recommend utilizing Erika!

for the sale of your property or the purchase of your future property. Robin handled our entire transaction with extreme professionalism, while being easily accessible at any time. She was always open for suggestions, which helps ease your mind during this major endeavor, while making you feel as if you had a partner, not just an agent. Robin created one of the most impressive 3D designs of my home, that I have ever seen and I am sure that it was a major factor in receiving multiple contracts and a speedy closing. Robin, I thank you and your staff at NextHome, for helping us through this transaction!

She was very knowledgeable and thorough. As a first time home buyer and being military I would highly recommend.

She went out of her way to show us several units before we decided on one. From the time we put in an offer through closing, Melinda stayed involved throughout the entire process and always made sure we were up-to-date with what was going on. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a true real estate professional.

We reached out to her with our new move to North Carolina. After 10 minutes of telling her what we were looking for, she sent us an email of all the available houses we would like. After letting her know which ones we would like to see, she set up a schedule of all 8 houses for that Saturday! She gave us her feedback without us feeling pressured to take her opinion when looking at houses. After putting an offer on a house, she was very quick in answering all our questions either by phone, email or text. We would recommend Dever for anyone who is looking in the Virginia or North Carolina area. Thank you Dever!!!

Right as the housing market decided to go crazy, she was the calm to the storm and made us feel completely at ease during the process. We were living abroad, but it felt as though we were personally walking through every home we virtually toured while thousands of miles away. Robin was prompt, thorough, and always provided us thoughtful responses to our questions and concerns. In the end, we were able to secure a phenomenal home in a wonderful neighborhood and we couldn’t be more pleased. Even though we were halfway around the world, Robin made us feel like we had a friend long before we arrived. We can’t recommend her enough!

When things got a little stressful at the end to no fault of hers or ours she handled it with ease and grace. I could not recomend her more to anyone looking to purchase a home. If we do sell our current home she will be the first person I ask to represent us. Mike R.

She is very thorough and prepared at every property. She gets all available information for you so you can make the best decision in your home buying journey. We are renting, but she found us a rental that is nice and in a good area. She goes above and beyond for her clients and is available whenever you need her which is a lot to ask because she has many clients, but still makes time for each of her clients. Thank you Melinda for all your help!

She made navigating this home buying experience both seamless and stress free for me, a first time home buyer. I definitely recommend giving her a call to explore your options!

She guided us through a pretty good sized hiccup on the buyer's part (i.e. she held our hand!) and everything went smooth as silk after that. Not only is she extremely professional, she's also just a really nice person. We'd recommend her to anyone, anytime.

She answered all of our questions. Got our house sold in less than a week. Found us the home we asked for. I highly recommend her!!

In the beginning she provided lots of data and past histories for pricing the house but I never felt pressured...in fact we randomly came up with almost the same selling price. Along the way there were several bumps in the road from small, little things but Debbie remained always the consummate professional and was my voice of reason and my go to for win-win situations. We had an offer in 2 days but lost the offer for unforeseen reasons. Debbie remained calm and reassured me we would have another offer in no time. Sure enough, we had 2 offers the week it went back on the market. I can not say enough great things about Debbie but I can say with clarity and great confidence that she is a true treasure and a gem to work with and I hope I am able to send her as much business as possible. I highly recommend working with this talented, fun and energetic Real Estate Professional.

We had some emotional attachments to our home that we lived in for a very long time and we would only trust someone as competent as Melinda to guide us through this process. We had a lot of questions which she happily and quickly answered allowing for us to make informed decisions at every step. Highly recommend!

She accommodated our sometimes weird schedules, was always pleasant and professional, and went the extra mile to help us move the transaction forward when we hit a few bottlenecks. We highly recommend Alicia!

She very patiently and professionally guided me through a long and challenging search for a condominium. She counseled me through some difficult market conditions, while always keeping my best interest in mind. I always felt incredibly secure knowing that I could rely on her expertise on all matters real estate. I highly recommend Melinda, and I have every intention of using her for my next real estate transaction.

When we received orders and knew we would be needing to looking for a home in a state that neither of us had ever been to, Melinda went the extra mile! She showed us homes in several places near to where we needed to be. Melinda used her knowledge of the area to assure us that we were going to be in a great location for a family, set up FaceTime walkthroughs with us while one was in Texas and the other overseas, and carefully walked us through the whole process. She truly made us feel so welcomed and valued. You will not be dissapointed in her care!

!! She made herself available at all times and never made me feel like I was a bother. She ensured every one of my needs, desires and concerns were met. I would not recommend anyone else in the real estate world! You would be disappointed if you went somewhere else. You’d be missing out on real estate agent with amazing talent, superb communication skills like no one else has and an additional family member because that’s how wonderful she is! You will not regret Melinda Swager as your real estate agent!

She was a godsend! I started this process with a different realtor (who I had to fire), and so by the time I got to Erika I had already had two contracts fall apart. She was an absolute breath of fresh air - everything you pray for in a realtor. Super responsive, flexible in her schedule and available to go see houses whenever I was, looked out for concerns I hadn’t even thought about, and truly cared about finding a home that fit my needs. If you are buying or selling a house - you should absolutely reach out to Erika, she’ll take great care of you and help you get into your dream home just like she did with me. I cannot recommend her highly enough!!!

She helped me through the process, and greatly reduced my stress! I would highly recommend her, and will use her again!

Always made herself available when we asked for anything. She was transparent about the entire process and she was good of simplifying the process. Never felt pressured or rushed to make any decisions. If this wasn't my forever home, I would call her up again to do business again.

I found her to be super accommodating, flexible, easy to communicate with and very efficient. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again and would recommend her in a heartbeat!

She was knowledgeable about the market and the process. Robin gave a fair assessment of my property and quickly listed on the major sites with attractive photos. Each time I had questions, she responded quickly and thoroughly. Robin was proactive by holding an open house and actively finding a buyer. Once the contract was signed the process was smooth and timely. The closing occurred on time and without any problems. I would highly recommend Robin as an agent.

She is informative, patient, and works everyday to ensure your needs are met.

She was very flexible when showing us many... (MANY) properties. Dever always had a great selection of houses lined up to see in the areas we were looking. She had valuable input that was offered but she balanced this well by ultimately letting us form our own opinions. Whenever we needed anything she was very responsive and prompt for appointments while being super polite with any interactions; email, calls etc. She was instrumental in helping us through the home buying process from start to finish, pre-loan approval, offer, acceptance the whole thing! It was like having an excellent YouTube tutorial or the a guide book with us at all times. She will definitely be representing us for our next real estate venture. 10/10 would recommend.

She guided us through the whole process explaining everything and in detail along the way. She was very responsive when texting and communicating about the houses we were looking at. If not for her we would have drowned in process. We appreciate her so much and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home.

From the onset, Robin was the consummate professional. She had the knowledge and steadiness to navigate me through this major transaction from the time she agreed to market my home. She kept me well informed every step of the way, presenting options, and keeping me from getting overwhelmed. I am so grateful I was referred to her and now looking back, would not change a thing if I had to do it again.

She understands the demands of the market, and works tirelessly to make sure your house shows in the optimal light. She will also search endlessly for the right house for you. We must have tromped through 40 houses before finding the right one. I would highly recommend Debbie for your buying and selling needs.

She very reliable when it comes to the resources to have anything installed . If you are looking for a Realtor to she is the ONE!

If you want someone who will work with you and go the extra mile, Robin is your real estate person. She was with us every step of this long distance process. Thanks Robin for a job well done

She works hard to find the house you desire. Our Experience Melinda was such a joy to work with. This woman care about you as a client . I would highly refer her to all my friends and family:she is trust worthy, caring and patient and I needed that. For that I rate her as a 5 Star Realtor ! Thank you so much Melinda !’ Dr.Olisaemeka & Avis Anonyuo Dr. Anonyuo Summarized : Melinda Service was unprecedented. She should be granted a forum to teach other Realtors the art of Coutesy , and Customer Service Service . there Room for 6 Stars to deserve It.

Her knowledge of the demographics of an area is a plus. I had no stress selling my home and I intend to use Robin to help me find my forever home when I’m ready. I would recommend her to my friends and anyone else who is looking for a realtor.

We started working with her three months before we met her while we were still living in Japan. She showed us houses often using video chat and even got us a video chat with a builder all before we arrived in the States. Once we were stateside, she worked tirelessly to make sure we were able to see as many homes as possible and introduced us to South Mills, NC where we built our home. We now consider Melinda a great friend and would highly recommend her if your in the market for a new home or property 🤗

We reached out to Robin to sell our rental property while we were stationed in another state AND selling with a power of attorney. She took care of all the communication with other parties and kept us updated. She forwarded necessary documents to her lawyer to confirm the POA would be sufficient. She set repairs to be made on the the home with her handy-man.

Her searches turned up THE place I'm calling home! Thanks Melinda

Melinda was so patient with us as first time home buyers and so knowledgeable and communicative with what we were looking for. Day or night she was so responsive and if I ever have to buy a house again, I already know who my realtor is going to be.

She’s very loyal, patient, honest, direct and knowledgeable about her profession. Four months and 26 houses later she helped my husband and I become home owners!!! She worked really hard day in and out to help us find our dream home and supported us through the entire process and even after. I couldn’t have wished for a better person to work with during my first home buying process. She’s very resourceful and informative to what you need and what you can expect. And most of all she does this out of the kindness of her heart, her incentive is making you happy. She kept each of my family members in mind, and her goal is to satisfy you and your family. If you’re in search of a new home, I highly recommend her a million times over!!! Erika Thank you for helping me find my brand new dream home!

Her professionalism is amazing, crystal clear on how to go about, as well as amazingly friendly.

Alicia set herself apart from all the other agents I dealt with by sending me only those homes that fit within the parameters I had outlined. She is courteous and professional and always willing to go the extra mile. She goes out of her way to make things go smoothly and she offers only sound suggestions. I really can't say enough good things about her.

She is very much on top of things.

Thank you.

She's very informative and goes well above and beyond to help you find the perfect home!

She very professional and I will be using her in the future.

She handled everything professionally , timely, and efficiently. Our home sold within the first week on the market! We were so impressed . Robin has a great personality and she genuinely cared about us and for us throughout the entire process and that is what made her so special . She was there morning and night to answer any questions we had and to help us every step of the way, we are so happy we chose her to sell our home . She is AMAZING, if you are looking to purchase a home or to sell your home , I would say look no further... you found the one!!!

She was always available if I had a question about my moms house or if i needed some realtor advice on my new home. Thank You

Being a first-time home buyer is stressful and confusing, but Melinda alleviated that fear by being punctual, responsive, and knowledgeable. I ended up finding a beautiful home with everything I wanted and more. I will be recommending Melinda to all of my friends as they begin their home buying journey. Thanks, Melinda! You are the best.

!! I have to say she is the Best of the Best.

Couldn’t have asked for a better realtor/friend! We told her what we wanted, we we needed it by and she made it happen!

She found exactly what we were looking for and made the buying process much less stressful than expected. Finding the right home with location near work and schools was amazing. I certainly recommend her for your real estate needs.

He proved that time and again with his thorough knowledge of home construction and the local market. Every time we viewed a new property Chandu would perform a methodical inspection, looking for signs of problems and commenting on the quality of construction, finish, appliances, etc. In the end we found the property that was perfect for us and are loving it so far. Thank you for everything Chandu!!

She was amazing to work with, very understanding and honest. She always had our best interest not only for now but for the future. Her knowledge and passion was like no other, never missed a beat and was always a call or text away(Even during important family moments) Thank you so much ! And we hope to work with you again in the future.

I first heard about her because my brother and father worked with her to sell their homes and she helped me buy mine. The market is very competitive right now and it take a lot of patience to find the right one and not jump into a bad deal. I never felt pressured to buy a house and we ended up with a house my family and I enjoy.

She was always there to help and when she say was a phone call away she really was. Erika is one best out there, if you are looking for a realtor….stop here!!!!

She was always very active in the search and always made herself available to look at houses. She made the process much easier than it could have been. I would highly recommend her as your agent!

She was a pleasure to work with, from start and finish. She was exceptional in all aspects of the process and went above and beyond for us. Debbie was always available when needed. She was extremely efficient and knowledgeable. She made the entire experience, which potentially can be stressful at times, an absolute joy! We bought our home during a global pandemic, and was 4 hours away during the whole process. Debbie didn't hesitate to step into our shoes and represent us when needed and I trusted her explicitly. We are planning on selling our rental property next year, and I wouldn't consider using anyone but Debbie Thompson!

She was always available to answer any questions we had and made the process seamless. We appreciate her patience and her willingness to make this experience so wonderful.

Very supportive and patient throughout a sellers market while working as a buyers agent. Market made it difficult to compete with a VA loan but still turned success in as little as two months of house hunting/Offers. Recommend using this agent for all future real estate business!!

Professional, engaging and extremely knowledgeable, Robin has a proven, effective plan to give your home maximum market exposure, and she provides solid recommendations to improve your home's market appeal. A testament to her effectiveness, the initial sales contract on my home was $3,000 over what it appraised at. The Best of the Best, Robin has my strongest possible recommendation!!!

She is the BEST REALTOR EVER. She was very patient with my husband and I who were very unsure about what we wanted in the beginning. We knew we needed to move to be close to the grand baby. She was very knowledgeable about the area we wanted to live in. Her professionalism, expertise, and due diligence enabled us to find our next FOREVER HOME. We can't thank her enough for everything she has done for us. Many thanks Melinda!!!!

She helped me understand certain things with buying my home. She was very happy to help anyway she could. I feel she did everything she could do to sell my home. It worked, sold in under a month!!

She has been assisting me and giving me financial tips to purchase a home. She is friendly and a professional person. My husband and I have enjoyed our experience in working with Robin. She was available for us whenever we wanted to see a property and even gave us recommendations. Thank you very much Robin and I will recommend Robin to my family and friends.

She will find you the right affordable home and her market savvy is very impressive. We worked her very hard a couple of years ago right up to putting in a contract and then we had to suddenly pull out of the process for personal reasons. She was extremely understanding and supportive. Hence, the reason we came right back to her when we were ready to buy. She got us on track. We are now living in the exact type of home we were searching for. Robin is a true real estate professional. I called her many times and never got her voice mail. She always answers your call. That is hard to beat. Highest recommendation!! 😁

Robin came highly recommended through some friends of mine that also used her to sell their home a few years ago. Our home was on the market 3 weeks before we got an offer, which was perfect for us so we took it! We were on a time crunch since we had to PCS the next month. Thank you Robin for all your help, I will defintely be recommending you to others!

She was attentive, professional, honest, and made my home search seem so easy. She kept me hopeful even when things seemed to be so overwhelming. I would give her 1 million stars if possible. She's absolutely awesome all around!! Thank you for everything Melinda!

I would highly recommend her for your Real estate needs.

Very dependable. Always stayed in communication with us either by text or calling during our home selling process. Our home sold in 4 days!! Thanks to Robin and her expertise. Highly recommend Robin Gauthier to sell anyone’s home.

She was extremely knowledgeable of the area, schools, and neighborhoods. Very professional I would recommend her to anyone and I look forward to being able to work with her again.

She took the time to listen attentively, grasping every detail of what I was looking for in a new home. Her knowledge of the local market was impressive, and she consistently presented properties that aligned perfectly with my requirements. She organized multiple viewings, taking into consideration my busy schedule, and her insights were invaluable when it came to evaluating each property. She ensured that my interests were well-represented during negotiations. I felt confident and supported every step of the way, thanks to her excellent communication and constant updates. Melinda's exceptional service did not end with the purchase agreement. She seamlessly coordinated with the necessary parties, including mortgage brokers and inspectors, to ensure a smooth closing process. Her meticulousness and thoroughness ensured that all the paperwork was handled promptly and accurately, relieving me of any additional stress. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of an outstanding realtor. Thank you, Melinda, for your outstanding support and guidance!

Dever Clevinger has been an outstanding agent for both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new condo. Dever started this process in June of last year while we were trying to identify the things that needed to be done for the successful sale of our home of the last 18 years. Throughout this process she answered every call and took the time to advise us about repairs and improvement that would help make this transition successful. Whenever we were challenged to find the resources we needed, Dever took the time to provide us with recommendations that allowed us to complete the preparation for the sale of our home. While this was happening, she also stayed engaged in finding us our future home. For over 6 months Dever was finding new places to look at while we communicated our ever-changing ideas. With a very optimistic and upbeat personality Dever never lost faith that she would find us a new home and she did. From listing to getting an offer within 30 days on the sale of our house and 30 more days to zero in on our new home. Dever was an absolute pleasure to work with, always available and she met all our expectations. We would and have recommended Ms. Clevinger to our friends & family for their real estate needs. We think of her as family.

When buying a house nearby it can be stressful but a long distance purchase adds an extra layer. Melinda went above and beyond to assist us. She also helped with recommendations for work that would be needed to the house. She was a pleasure to work with and made the process smooth!

I was so nervous about selling my house before I moved out of state but she made everything so easy. Honestly, she’s amazing and the best person to have on your side whether you’re buying or selling!! She’s the best!

I can’t say enough about Melinda. Treated me like a friend and family besides doing above and beyond her responsibilities! Don’t look any further for the best agent!

She was able to thoroughly explain why she felt our home should be priced where is was and had the documention to prove what she said. She listened to feedback we had and was open and honest. During negotiations, she listened to what we wanted and helped guide us through the process and to make the best decision for us. Ultimately, she helped us get full ask on our home! Thank you!

She was always available for any questions and quickly got back to me with the answers. I look forward to working with her again when it is time to sell my current home.

We wanted to try to find a rental home before arriving to make the transition a little easier. We were put into contact with Melinda and she was extremely helpful in answering my questions, showing us properties we were interested in, etc. We would definitely use her services again, as well as recommended her to anyone looking for home to buy or rent.

She was extremely responsive to questions and communicated clearly via phone, email, and texting throughout the process. I'd recommend Robin to anyone without a second thought.

We got 9 offers over a weekend of 20+ showings! Robin is a true professional! Did I mention that she helped us find our Next Home too!

She knew exactly what my wife and I were looking for in a home. As first time homebuyers, Robin was very patient and helpful when it came to explaining every step in the buying process. She was very good at being in contact with us and answering any questions we had. If you are looking for a realtor who is all in to find you a forever home...look no further!

Due to last minute circumstances, I had about 3 weeks left to find a new home for my fiancé, my dogs and me. She went above and beyond in helping us and I can never thank her enough! She kept in communication daily with us and updating new listings on her site that fit our description and price range. If there was a property we were interested in, she was able to set up a viewing ASAP! She is the best!! I would truly recommend her if you are looking for someone you can trust in ensuring you will find the perfect home. Thank you so much Melinda!!!!!

She was always available to answer questions via email or text and worked around our busy lives when scheduling our visits to various properties. Melinda is always friendly, professional, and easy to work with because she listens to your concerns. I would definitely recommend Melinda to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent a home.

We have been looking for a condo for about 2 years. Melinda was faithful in sending me information almost daily to help in that journey. When our house sold we had to find something quick, Melinda gave so very much of her time to make that happen. She was always quick to answer any question, if she did not know the answer, she would tell you so and find the answer. I never sent a text, email or phone call that was not answered right away. The main quality I found in Melinda as a Real Estate Agent was her patience, she made us feel we were the most important clients she had everyday. She also followed through will all steps from looking to closing. If we ever need another Real Estate Agent you can be assured it will be Melinda Swager.

And when problems arise she was right there and handle the situation, I would definitely use her again with future housing.

Mrs. Stewart walked me and my wife (Latrisha) through the whole home buying process without missing a step. Most people claim your first home purchase is a nightmare. I beg to differ...... or maybe it was just our Realtor. The whole process was painless and worth it. Thank you Erika for everything. We definitely recommend Erika Stewart to be your future Realtor.

She was always eager to help and answered all of our questions. We are very satisfied with our home buying process thanks to Melinda.

She always responded promptly to our phone calls and text messages and emails. She was always patient, kind, good natured and enthusiastic. She was very knowledgeable about every aspect of both buying and selling homes. She was always spot-on every step of the way, skillfully orchestrating the entire process and the cast of characters involved in negotiations, inspections, financing, surveys, appraisals, closing etc.

She is highly organized, professional, courteous, and responds quickly to text and emails (and I had many!). Home selling is never straightforward and she always had good advice and a battle plan in her back-pocket when the bumps came. The NextHome systems she uses are modern and easy to use on your phone, which it made it easier for me to sign and approve things away from my computer. Her advertising was spot-on and her pictures and video of the house were beautiful. Robin has the experience I needed to sell a niche home in a city that generally gets a bad wrap - and it sold for full asking price! I was really happy to have her in my corner to get through this process.

She made the process of buying long distance work with our schedules by from the first virtual walk through to closing.

From the word go she assisted me in everyway possible with not only the finding of my soon to be new property and home in Moyock, NC but also in the selling of my house in Virginia Beach. She got my house viewed, offered on and accepted in just over two weeks. She was very communicative and always kept me abreast of every situation (and there were many) and we spoke on almost a daily basis. I will be recommending her to anyone I know looking for a realtor for any reason!

She was patient and gave me reassurance in me finding the perfect home for me.

Stewart was phonemenal throughout entire home buying process! She was always available for any question or concern, very transparent and knowledgeable when it came to discussing procedures that this journey consisted of. This process was lengthy but she made it a piece of cake , from gathering information regarding grant programs, to ensuring all my must haves were checked off of my home buying list. To anyone looking to purchase a home she’s definitely a sweetheart and the BEST AGENT !

But no matter where we searched, Erika was alway willing to make the drive. Erika truly understood the assignment and beyond & above. Thank you for helping us find our dream home and the perfect man/she cave for us (LOL). 10’s across the board, best hands down!!!!!

Wouldn’t recommend anyone else, but Robin!

Goes that extra mile every time. Has a great source of helpers and all very professional. You wont be sorry if Melinda is on your side.

From her open house to her excellent knowledge of the business and professional service. She responded to my calls, text and emails ASAP. Good job Erika!

We told her what we were looking for and she found our dream home in 1 day . Shes polite, friendly, knowledgeable and will be there to help you all the way till the end . Highly recommended!

I couldn’t have asked for a better agent. She is definitely a rider. What I mean by that is, when I came across any property of my interest and wanted to see it or make a offer, she was on it rain, sleet or snow. I would definitely be referring others to her without a doubt. Thank you Melinda, you rock!

I really liked her state-of-the art marketing approach that included a 3D virtual tour of our house and video posts to multiple websites in addition to the MLS. Her approach was very effective--- we sold our investment property at asking price within two days and had multiple offers! She was extremely attentive and responsive throughout the entire process. Robin's normal response time is immediate or within 10 minutes! I would highly recommend Robin whether you are buying or selling your next house.

I wouldn't trust any other realtor to do what she did!

We were gone for half of our sale and Melinda made the whole thing stress free. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better!

Dever is extremely knowledge and had answers to all of our questions. She either answered every phone call or called as back as soon as she could. She is extremely personable and is very easy to get along with. She made the home buying process as stress free and easy as she could. I would recommend her to anyone out there looking to buy or sell a home.

She was able to walk me through the very complicated process of buying my first home. Streamlined everything for me, and she got us in our first house in less than 3 months.

From the start of process of searching for a new home up to the closing time, she made sure that all of our questions and concerns were addressed to our satisfaction. She just make everything easy on our part and we are so happy that we chose her as our real state agent.

As he is very professional to work with. We are in search of our house for more than 2 yrs and finally got the one we looking for. All thanks to chandu.

It was a long distance move and she went above and beyond to make it happen.

From day one she was informative and provided me a packet with all the information I needed to sell my home at top value. I was able to sell at a price well above what I intended. She made the process nothing but smooth. Additionally she helped me find a new home to move into in a crazy market. She was patient with me as we went searching from home to home throughout different cities. If you want a realtor who listens, is patient and will put your wants and needs first then she is the realtor for you!!

She was readily available to answer all questions. I would Highly recommend Robin to any of my friends who were in the market to purchase a home or sell their home A+++++++++++++++++++++++++

We have purchased several homes and our experience with her was the best.

She helped me to both buy & sell. Robin is very professional and knowledgeable. She responded promptly to all of my questions and kept me informed during the entire process. I would highly recommend Robin weather buying or selling.

We have bought or sold a home eight times and she is by far one of the best agents we have ever worked with. We could always reach her and she made the whole experience easy! As far as the sale went, the house sold within 24 hours full asking!! I can’t say enough good things about working with Robin! I would recommend her to anyone!!

I was able to work on the house using her advice. My house sold in two days with 7 offers. My wife and I would definitely recommend Melinda Swagger.

We are definitely grateful to have had her knowledge and expertise throughout the process, which was made less stressful with her help. We couldn’t be happier and will highly recommend her to everyone!

She is very friendly and helpful and she worked hard to get us into our beautiful new home! Debbie was easy to get ahold of anytime of day, got back to us quickly on any and all the correspondence, and made the home buying process as quick and painless as it could be! Dale and Christine

She helped us through our home sale with professionalism, encouragement and dedication. We are so thankful for her and all the hard work she puts into her job. We definitely would reccomend using Robin for your home!

She was available and very knowledgable to answer any questions we had. The pictures & videos of our home were extremely helpful. We highly recommend you use Robin Gauthier to sell your home!

Thank you for all your time and effort in helping get us into our new home. You made this whole process much easier and seem less than it could have been. We are so thrilled and cannot wait to add our personal touches to make it our own. We are forever thankful to you!

She answered all questions and made our home buying experience flawless. I highly recommend Melinda to any home buyer or seller!! A+++++++++++++++

She has always been very quick and thorough with any requests or responses to us, and I always had the feeling that she was always doing the very best that she could for our home purchasing process. If I had to start the process over from scratch, I would absolutely choose Melinda again, she has been fantastic to work with!

She sold my property 2 times within 4 years. She is a diligent and constantly working advertisements her post cards and facebook.... She will be the number 1 realtor in town. She is a very good photographer and designs and idea. I am going to work with her next my property.
