🧠 WHAT’S ACTUALLY HAPPENING IN THE RICHMOND MARKET RIGHT NOW?
The Richmond real estate market is heading into Fall 2025 with steady prices,
more inventory, and mortgage rates finally easing. From Henrico and Chesterfield
to Hanover and Goochland, buyers and sellers alike are seeing a market that feels more balanced than in years past.
HERE’s what you need to know before making your next move.
🍁 It’s (almost) Fall, Y’all
It may not be officially fall, but the early September weather is actually cooperating with us this year (so far, at least!) to make those pumpkin spice lattes not feel so out of place. Dare we say it’s almost “sweater weather?” I always hate to see summer go, and I confess, I get a little anxious when the weather turns. That’s why I always have a list of things to do and places to go that I love for fall. It just softens the change of seasons for me. So, in case you feel the same, maybe you’re newer to town, or just in a rut, I’ve put together my Fall Guide to give you some ideas of things to do as the leaves start to change colors. Download it HERE, and let me know what you think!
📍 RVA SPOTLIGHT
Shout out to the helpers and the animal lovers! I was out of town over the weekend, and got a call from the boarding place that my boy was unwell. Scrambled, made some calls, and my brother was an absolute superhero- getting Maxwell to the doctor and taking care of him until I got home. But wow. When these things happen at night, on a weekend, etc, it’s hard to know where to go or what to do. VVC came highly recommended, and they deserve the recognition. We ended up at both the Midlothian and the Short Pump locations, and I can’t say enough about the care, the people, and the facilities. Hopefully, you don’t have a need for a pet ER anytime soon (or ever), but if you do, this is definitely one I recommend. (Short Pump is open 24 hours, too)
🍴 What I’m Cooking Right Now: Classic Make Ahead Chicken Tetrazzini
Another great make-ahead meal that was a HUGE hit at Gourmet Delights. Just serve with a salad, some good crusty bread, and you’re all set. Perfect for back to school and busy weeknights, but good enough to take someone if you’re on a meal train. (Also, it’s pretty popular with kids, even if they sometimes want to pick the mushrooms out!) Check out the recipe HERE.
💬 FROM ME TO YOU…
Happy September! This is the first edition of the new newsletter format! Let me know what you think, and I’ll send you a coffee on me! (email or text me)
As summer fades and fall arrives, there’s lots to do in and around RVA, and after late summer vacations, real estate (and life) is getting a little back to “normal.” I’m excited for some fall fun, though, and my Fall Guide has some great suggestions, so make sure you download it!
