Doug Dorsey, Broker

Doug Dorsey, Broker with Shaheen, Ruth, Martin & Fonville Real Estate

Doug Dorsey has been a trusted name in Virginia real estate for nearly 45 years. He earned his real estate license in 1982 and became a licensed broker in 1987, steadily building a reputation for integrity, expertise, and client centered service.

Early in his career he became a partner at Virginia Landmark Corporation, a long established and renown firm in Richmond, where he helped expand the company's residential division. After Virginia Landmark was sold, he co-founded Select Properties of Virginia with his father, John Dorsey. With offices in Richmond and Irvington, they served clients throughout the Mid- Atlantic, offering personalized service backed by deep local knowledge.

Doug's approach has always been consultative, tailored to the unique needs of each client, whether individuals, family offices, corporations or banks. His commitment to professionalism and discretion earned him and his firm a place as inaugural members of Christie's International Real Estate, (formerly Christie's Great Estates), where he spent over 30 years collaborating with some of the world's most accomplished real estate firms.

After folding Select properties into Shaheen, Ruth Martin and Fonville Real Estate, Doug has continued to take pride in working alongside team-oriented professionals who share his commitment to excellence.

Doug is a graduate of Cherry Creek High School in Englewood , Colorado and Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Virginia. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his growing family - now 5 strong with the addition of a granddaughter - boating on Virginia's waterways and exploring his creative side through watercolor painting. He believes deeply in giving back to the communities where he has lived and worked, and his legacy reflects a lifetime of service, leadership and connection.

From waterfront retreats to urban residences and high valued estates, Doug Dorsey brings unmatched experience, integrity and a deep understanding of Virginia's real estate landscape.
