Hello! I’m Dana Orr, a long time resident of the New River Valley. I don’t just sell homes; I sell the New River Valley. It is a great place to live and work, with friendly neighbors and an active community. Transitioning into our area is so easy. You’ll find complete strangers smiling at you at the mall, and ole’ time farmers giving you a nod as you pass on the road. I’ve lived here for over 30 years, and have been selling real estate for the last 12 years. Our son, who is now 25, and married, went through the public schools in Blacksburg. As a former volunteer at the schools (and former soccer Mom extraordinaire), I have first hand knowledge, and would be happy to share my experiences. Our son graduated from Va Tech, and I know the student housing market well. If you are looking for a person who knows the New River Valley market, then I’m your agent! I’m FAST to respond to your calls, and promise same day response. I work week-ends, nights, and sometimes Holidays! Here’s what one of my clients had to say: We're Glad We Had Someone Like Dana "We met Dana at an Open House and even at this first meeting we were impressed by her personality and eagerness (without being aggressive) to answer questions. I always thought we were dragging out our choices, but Dana was so patient and always upbeat and cheerful. We're glad we had someone like Dana to help us find our home. Sandy and Phil Kastin SO, GIVE ME A CALL ON MY CELL PHONE 540-230-8786! AND LET’S GET STARTED!

Accepting An Offer >Know Your Price Range
As a homebuyer, you may have found the perfect new house for your growing family, but what if it is a little out of your price range? You might list your current home for more than it is worth and be lucky enough to find a qualified buyer who is willing to pay the price, but it is impossible to know in advance what your home will sell for.
If you want to sell your home quickly, have a frank and detailed conversation with your real estate agent to determine the best price for the house. Setting your price within 5% of the fair market value of your home greatly increases your chances of getting solid offers that will result in a relatively quick sale.
Don't buy and sell so close to your target amount that you become anxious when the numbers don't meet your expectations. There may be other approaches, such as adjustable rate mortgages or owner financing, to increase your buying power and get you into that new home. When you are selling one home and buying another, you will need more than good luck. You will need a highly professional and experienced real estate agent who can give you solid advice on how to make the transaction work for your particular requirements.
