Moving to Hampton Roads
Buy Here, From Anywhere
I tour every home you like with you on FaceTime, and we handle the offer and paperwork online, so you can buy before you move.
From away to home
How buying from away works with me
Here’s how a purchase runs when you can’t be here, from our first call to your keys. You can text me at any step.
Step 01 of 05
We start with a video call
- 01
We start with a video call
Tell me about the move. I’ll walk you through the cities on a map, answer every question, and connect you with a lender if you need one. Then we make a plan around your dates.
- Your move or report date
- Your budget or pre-approval
- Where you’ll work
02Live tours of every home you like
Send me the homes you like. I go to each one and walk you through it on FaceTime, room by room, and I tell you what I honestly think. You see what the listing photos leave out.
“She toured every home we showed interest in and included us over FaceTime, giving an honest assessment of each property.”

03Offer, e-sign and inspection from where you are
When you find the one, we write the offer together on a call and you sign it electronically. I negotiate for you, and I can be at the inspection when you can’t, then go through the findings with you.

04A closing planned around your distance
A closing attorney or settlement agent runs the closing here. I keep them, your lender and you on one timeline. When that’s possible, they can arrange for you to sign remotely or by mail, so we ask them early.
“I sold both properties from 5k miles away and a 6 hour time zone difference, and Sadie handled it with grace.”

05Keys, and Someone Local
We plan the key hand-off around your arrival. Need a mover, a painter or a handyman before you land? I’ll connect you with people I trust, and I can go by the house when you need eyes on it.
“…being out of town she's hooked us up with various contractors and has even gone onsite when needed…”

In their words
Clients who did it from away
4 of my 16 reviews come from clients who weren’t here while we worked together. Each one is word for word.
Bought remotely, over FaceTime
I don’t know how we would’ve purchased a home without Sadie - my partner and I needed to purchase a home remotely, so our entire home-buying process happened online/over FaceTime. This would’ve been intimidating for us, first-time homebuyers, without Sadie’s expertise. She toured every home we showed interest in and included us over FaceTime, giving an honest assessment of each property. Sadie was always available via text, call, and e-mail, often dropping everything to make sure we could see a house. She connected us with an incredible lender and negotiated for the seller to pay a sizeable amount of closing costs, something almost unheard of in this market. If you need to purchase a home in the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area, Sadie is your woman!
Sold from 5k miles away
From the start, Sadie was an amazing agent to work with. So much so, I have sold two properties with her and will only be going through her for future real estate transactions. She’s detail oriented and always there to answer any questions. I sold both properties from 5k miles away and a 6 hour time zone difference, and Sadie handled it with grace. Truly a step above the rest.
Bought from out of state
Sadie is honest and very professional realtor. In this competitive Virginia market you need someone like her, I was about to give up in this stressful and awful hunting process, however, she promised me that no matter what I will get my house and sure it happened!!! Btw, did I mentioned that this woman is really fast in get to show your potential next home? That’s for us was very crucial because we were out of state, well, as you can see she is amazing realtor, thank you for not give up on us :)
Out-of-state buyer
Sadie is an amazing realtor. My family found her by chance and we've been connected now since 2020 on various deals. We just purchased our 3rd property (first investment property) with Sadie and will continue to use her for anything in the VA beach area. She is very familiar with the area and fights for her buyers. Her communication is unmatched! Being able to text your realtor at a random time during the day when you have a random idea is the best. We trust her opinion and if she says it's a no go we move on. Being an out of state buyer, we need someone we can trust. Sadie is an extension of the family at this point and always looks out for our best interest. In addition to making the buying process easy, Sadie has a network of great professionals that she works with. Again, being out of town she's hooked us up with various contractors and has even gone onsite when needed to ensure the work was completed to our standard. 100% recommend Sadie if you are looking for a realtor in the VA beach market. We will be connecting with her once again when we are ready to upgrade our condo!

Good to know
Questions From Far Away
Short answers in plain words. If yours isn’t here, ask me on our call.
Can I buy a home here before I move?
Yes. I’ve helped buyers do the whole purchase online and over FaceTime. We tour live, you sign electronically, and I’m your eyes and ears on the ground.
The one part to plan early is closing. The closing attorney or settlement agent decides how you can sign from a distance, so we ask them as soon as you’re under contract.
How do video tours work?
You send me the homes you like. I go to each one, call you on FaceTime (or the video app you use), and walk it with you room by room. Ask me to open closets, look under sinks, or step outside to hear the street.
After each tour I tell you what I honestly think, including when I’d pass.
Can I use a VA loan?
If you’re eligible, yes. A VA loan works here the same way it works anywhere in the country. The VA sets eligibility, and your lender confirms it with your Certificate of Eligibility.
Start with the official VA home loan pages, and I can connect you with a lender.
VA home loans on VA.gov ↗How do I choose a city from far away?
Start with the facts: the median prices and days on market above, where you’ll work, and your budget. Then bring your shortlist to our video call.
I’ll walk you through the map, and we’ll narrow it to a few areas before I tour a single home for you.
Explore the communities →What if I can’t be here for the closing?
Tell me early. Here a closing attorney or settlement agent runs the closing, and they decide what can be signed remotely, by mail, or another way. When that’s possible, I coordinate the timing with them and your lender, so you know each step before it happens.
