Specialties
I help Hampton Roads homeowners sell strategically, especially military families facing a PCS deadline and homeowners 55+ who are ready for their next chapter without the overwhelm.
Every listing gets a complete launch system: professional photography, video, a 3D Matterport virtual tour, detailed floor plans, and a launch timed to when buyer search activity peaks. Homes I list generate over 5,600 views in the first 24 hours, and most go under contract in 5 days or less.
My construction background means I know what buyers will flag on inspection before we list, and which pre-listing investments return money and which don't.
I also represent buyers, investors, and relocating families across Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Norfolk, and the surrounding area.
History
Established in 1999.
I've been a full-time REALTOR in Hampton Roads since July 1999, and today I lead The Agent Faircloth Team at Swell Realty Co. in Virginia Beach.
About 90% of my business comes from referrals. That's not a marketing claim. It's what happens when clients feel taken care of and tell the people they love. I've also been honored with Homesnap's Excellence in Customer Service award multiple years running.
Credentials: Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE), Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR), Certified Military Relocation Specialist (CMRS), and Luxury Home Marketing certified.

Before real estate, I spent years in commercial and industrial construction estimating and project management. That background means I walk through a house differently than most agents do. I'm not just looking at what it looks like. I'm reading what it is.
I'm a lifelong Virginia Beach resident, born and raised in Hampton Roads, and I've been helping families here buy and sell since 1999. The clients I'm built for are PCS families with a hard deadline and homeowners 55+ making their next move, but every client gets the same full attention.
If you're thinking about buying or selling, I'd welcome the conversation.
