“Part Real Estate Expert, Part Therapist, Part Friend and Part Rolodex”
I moved from out of the area into Richmond and discovered April when I was looking at one of her listings. I bought a different house instead, but April made the whole process absolutely seamless. She is part real estate expert, part therapist, part friend and part rolodex. She hooked me up with a terrific painter and house cleaner who got in before I moved - and she brought me the sweetest housewarming presents. She is funny, smart, and no-nonsense. I trust her completely with respect to the whole house purchasing process, and as a lawyer by training, I don’t really trust anyone. She has my fullest recommendation

“Total Concierge Experience in All Aspects of the Sale”
The whole team (April and Kendal) truly provided a total concierge experience for us in the preparation and sale of our home in Richmond’s Fan area. Living over an hour away, we did not have to lift a finger throughout the entire process. They coordinated the renovation of our 100 year old home, marketed, staged and sold it in the time frame they promised us - we had two offers within the first 48 hours of listing! Working as a team they provided us with the highest level or service - concierge as promised!

“Marketing Prowess Makes the Difference”
After being totally frustrated with our previous agents, we decided to contract with April from Hive Realty. The previous agents had limited traffic through our Fan house and very few folks at the open houses. With April’s great marketing prowess and the excellent staging of the house, we had over fifty people through the initial open house with many clients lined up before the house was even opened. After that we had constant traffic through the house and an offer followed shortly thereafter. Trust me, don’t waste your time with any other company or agent.

“Dream Home in our Dream Location”
April is a wonderful partner through the entire journey of buying and selling a home. She is knowledgeable, responsive and fun to work with. She found us our dream home in our dream location and we could not have done it without her.

“Doesn’t Sugarcoat or Embellish”
April cleaned, staged and sold my home in what seemed like minutes. I’m very impressed and I like that she doesn’t sugarcoat or embellish. She’s straight forward and honest from the get-go.

“Virtually No Listings Available”
I needed a home in an area that had virtually no listings. April sent a mailer our to the neighborhood and her teammate, Kendal used his contacts in the area to ultimately find the perfect property (off market) for my children and me. We could not be happier!

“RVA to DC Transition”
April has been a great resource in working toward our move from DC to Richmond. We are trying to get a feel for the right neighborhood for our retirement and she has been patient in driving us around for several days and giving us various neighborhood options We are looking forward to our move and know that with April helping it will be a perfect home for us!

“RVA to DC Transition Part Two”
Shortly after relocating to RVA from DC we decided to buy our first home and make the move permanent. We met with April to discuss the process and before we knew it we were getting her daily emails of listing that met our “very specific specifications.” April was great to work with, very hands on, and provided excellent feedback along the way. She was quick to point out new listings that might work, and we had to visit only two homes before making an offer. April’s knowledge and resources saved us time and money. Our home-buying process was simple and easy with April, especially compared to other friends in the area who had to look for months with other realtors. We’ve recommended her to all our friends looking to purchase in RVA and we’ll definitely work with her again.

“First Time Home Buyer”
Especially given that we were looking for homes on a more modest budget, we didn’t know what to expect when we first started with Hive Realty but April provided help and guidance at every step for us as first-time homebuyers. As stressful as the process can be, having April on our side kept us at ease, whether it was the negotiation stage or helping check on the endless paperwork. We can’t imagine having gone through this process without April and Hive Realty.
