      Ashley SlateQuestion & Answer

      What is your favorite thing about your community?
      Living in Richmond VA is incredible. Everyone seems to know each other and is always willing to help each other out. While Richmond is growing quickly, it still feels like a small town, and there is always something fun to do. Richmond has a wealth of options to enjoy - from visiting breweries, enjoying the James River, to dining in one of our renowned restaurants.
      What initially drew you to real estate?
      Relationship building, opportunities to explore many properties around the city, and the chance to help my friends/clients find homes they can live in and grow for years to come.
      Why is relationship building so key to your success?
      This industry is all about relationship building and developing life-long partnerships with my clients. As others see the happiness my clients experience as a result of our work together, this in turn leads to referrals and allows my business to grow.
      How does your background bring a unique perspective to your work?
      Growing up in the industry has allowed me to learn and see a ton at an early age. I’ve also had an opportunity to serve as a site agent for new home construction (for over 10 years) serve as a judge in the Parade of Homes in Greensboro, Richmond and Roanoke, and also work with clients on the buying and selling process.
      What is your mission statement?
      With nearly 20 years of experience in the real estate industry, I will provide the most professional, compassionate and trustworthy assistance in the industry to ensure all customers have a positive and memorable experience, creating loyal clients for life.
      What’s most important to you in business?
      Making sure I am always available for my clients and that they are happy throughout the entire process.
      How do you give back to the community?
      I am an ambassador for the American Heart Association.

      Ashley and Sally were a complete rockstar team during our multi-month home-buying journey! Ashley & Sally listed our home and, not only did we receive multiple competitive offers, it sold in just a few days. We also enlisted their help in finding our next home and while we had our fair share of ups and downs due to a sellers market, our partnership was the best experience! Ashley never hesitated to hop in the car and meet us on the fly whenever a home hit the market and, most importantly, she was super patient with us as we navigated this process. We are grateful to Ashley's diligence and hardwork on our behalf and highly recommend her services!
      Ashley was in constant communication with me, making sure that I had access to all available listings that met my criteria, and scheduling showings promptly. She was always on time and prepared. Ashley’s patience, attention to detail, and positive “can-do” attitude were wonderful assets. At no time did she ever try to “talk me into buying”, always saying that the most important thing was for me to be happy with the home, and that the right home would come along eventually.
      Ashley is an incredible Richmond based realtor and was hands down the best decision we could have made when it came time to sell our home and find a new one. From the very beginning, she took the time to listen to our needs, explain the process clearly, and come up with a strategy that made everything feel simple and doable. Looking back, what impresses us most was how seamless the whole experience was. Our home sold so much faster than we expected, and Ashley made sure we were prepared every step of the way — from staging advice and professional marketing to negotiating offers. At the same time, she helped us find the perfect new house, guiding us through every step, paperwork, and even the little details we never would have thought of on our own. Beyond being professional and knowledgeable, Ashley was kind, patient, and truly invested in helping us. We always had SO much peace of mind with Ashley - which is hard in this market - yet she made it easy. Because of the entire Slate Team, what could have been a stressful, overwhelming process turned into something SMOOTH and EXCITING. We are so grateful for her hard work and dedication and would recommend Ashley and the Slate Team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. They really are the best at what they do!
