    About Shannon Edwards

    Nowhere is Shannon's energetic approach more valuable than in her career as the Team Leader of The Coastal VA Real Estate Team! When you work with Shannon you can rest assured that her non-stop energy will help you achieve all your goals. She's not only fueled by her own energy, but by the dreams and aspirations of her clients who mean so much to her. "There's nothing more important to a family than their home," Shannon explains. "That's why I take my work so personally. I want to do everything possible to make the entire process enjoyable for my clients." She believes that by taking care of all the details and guiding her clients through their transaction, they can focus on making the adjustment to their new home and actually enjoy the process to the fullest. As a graduate of Christopher Newport University with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Psychology and Leadership, she was sure about 2 things in her life; "I had to work with people and I had to do something that I could make an impact." She sort of fell into Real Estate because a friend of hers owned a Brokerage. It seemed like a great job to do until, "I figured out what I want to do with my life," she said. Starting out in commercial sales and quickly realizing it was NOT the route for her, she moved into the residential world. She was instantly fulfilled... Not only did she love the fast pace, energy of being a Realtor but she also was able to spend 90% of her day with people AND be in a position that she could significantly better those people's lives. "I was SOLD," she explains, "and that was almost 17 years ago!"

    Rachel was amazing to work with when we bought our house, and she was amazing to work with when we sold it ~4 years later. She took the time to answer all our questions as first time home buyers, walked us through the process, and was super communicative at every step. Her guidance submitting an offer and then navigating our home sale years later made us feel confident we were making smart choices. She's also just very kind and supportive. We can't recommend her enough!!

    My mother transitioned from her home of forty one years to an assisted living apartment. It was difficult for my mom and me both, as this home had been filled with decades of memories. Rachel did an excellent job making this sale go as smoothly and pain free as possible. After she worked her negotiating magic, the house sold for quite a bit more than asking price. I recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor with knowledge of the area, amazing negotiating skills, and the heart to get it done with compassion.

    Rachel was such an instrumental part of the home buying process for us! As first-time home buyers we were completely lost on where to start, but Rachels strong knowledge made the process so smooth! She broke down each step of the home buying process for us, and provided all the information we needed to better understand the process. She was super responsive with any questions we had, and made sure we were in the loop with everything. We truly could not have done this without her!

    The amount of effort and time Rachel put into walking me through the process was unbelievable. As a first-time buyer, she was always available to provide me with the information I needed and answered all of my questions. I also appreciated that she did not try to force or influence what property I should purchase. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor!

    Rachel is amazing. We were living in Hilton Head and I got her name through networking, working with her was easy and seamless. Communication was excellent. We bought a house that had multiple offers and she knew just what to do to make sure our offer was accepted. We love our new home. Thank you, Rachel.
