I can not say enough good things about my experience with Kaera Mims as my realtor. I purchased an investment property in my home town of Virginia and Kaera was knowledgable, patient and very responsive throughout the whole process. She was not motivated by making a sale or getting her commission; she was a true advocate for me and made sure the sale went through fairly and that the other side was doing what they were supposed to be doing. She gave me great advice even when I may not have wanted to hear it at that moment but was never pushy. It was my silliness that didn't listen and then days/ weeks later realized that Kaera was absolutely correct and wondered why I didn't listen to her to begin with! I have worked with other realtors in the past (and currently in other jurisdictions) and I realized that Kaera is absolutely THE BEST!! I'm trying to figure out how can I clone her and have her purchase my investment properties in the other states. She went ABOVE and BEYOND for me and was/is a complete professional. You can see that she truly enjoys what she does and making peoples dreams come true which is exactly they type of person you want on your team. She was/is absolutely fantastic!!

This was my first time buying a home and Kandy and Christen made it such a smooth process. As a first time homebuyer I really appreciated that they discussed maintenance schedules with me and explained some of the intricacies of the crawl space (I’m used to a basement). I must have asked them a million questions at all times of the day and night and they were speedy about answering when the smallest question in detail. I found my forever home, but if I were to sell or buy again I’d definitely use them!

"Mary Beth Powell (and her husband Evans) really went above and beyond for our group!! I couldn't have asked for someone more patient and understanding to help us through such a trying time/process. She helped us in so many ways, especially keeping me on track with all of the to do's that constantly popped up. From buying one home to selling another all within a few months was quite a task. Mary Beth and Evans are a phenomenal pair, I (we) are so so very grateful that they were the ones to help us through it all!!"

Working with Kaéra was fantastic for both the buying and selling process. Her entire team is top notch (to include lenders, attorneys, photographers, etc). Her reputation, experience, and communication made this process as painless as possible! Super grateful to have a team of strong woman advocating for me. Highly recommend!

Carolyn went above and beyond with my move from New Jersey to Virginia, she was terrific and found me my perfect forever home. She will stay in touch with you through the whole process. I would highly recommend everyone call her if you are looking for a new home.

We were blessed to have Christen as our realtor and also to have the help of Kandy! Both ladies worked together wonderfully and answered our many questions as first time home buyers. Christen was very responsive and able to find answers. Both ladies know the area well which was great while moving (due to military) to a place we had no clue about. We even got a house that hadn’t even gone on market yet due to their connections in the community. Thanks so much!

We had an incredible experience working with Kaéra to find our investment property. From start to finish, Kaéra was professional, knowledgeable, and truly had our best interests at heart. She took the time to understand our investment goals, provided valuable insights on the market, and guided us through every step of the buying process with patience and expertise.
Her dedication and attention to detail made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. We truly appreciate her hard work and couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent.

I can't recommend Carolyn Molly enough. My home sale was extremely easy, and Carolyn was readily available every step of the way. If you want a professional realtor who's willing to hold your hand a bit, call Carolyn.

Great experience and always available to talk and walk thru things. Even when I had some dumb questions. Walk me thru every detail and even learned a lot thru the process of buying my first house.

Mary Beth did a great job as a real estate agent. She was very responsive and worked really hard to sell our home. She was there throughout the whole process and made herself readily available in times of need. For example, she would drive to the house on occasion to oversee needed repairs. She was very helpful and we highly recommend Mary Beth! You can definitely count on her.

Even the most glowing review won't due Kaera Mims justice. She helped my husband and I move across country from AZ to VA. I was worried the move would be stressful, but she took care of absolutely everything. Although most of the leg-work was done while we were geographically separated, the service was top notch. Amazing communication, feedback, and patience as we searched for our new home. Once in VA, she worked with our crazy schedules and found us the perfect home! She made our move so smooth, we can't thank her enough. We won't hesitate to refer her to anyone we know who is in the market to buy or sell!

Selling my home for the first time felt like a huge step, but Maurice made the entire process overwhelmingly simple and stress-free. From start to finish, he answered all of my questions thoroughly and even referred me to trusted professionals when I needed extra help.
What stood out most was his patience and professionalism. I first contacted him in 2022, unsure if I was ready to sell. He never pressured me and instead supported me over the course of three years until I felt confident that the time was right.
Maurice truly goes above and beyond for his clients. I’m so grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

From my first conversation with Kandy all the way to closing she had our back! Ever house she showed us even last minute she showed up educated and already had answers to questions we didn’t even think about it. Anytime we would ask about something she had the answer immediately! If it took her calling multiple people to get it! She goes above and beyond for her clients! She truly looks out for what is best for clients!

From start to final closing, Ms. Kaera has made this an excellent experience. Recommended to me by my sister, she has gone beyond my expectations of what I expected. I would recommend her to any person-government, military, or civilian coming to the area. Thank you for all the insight and help.

Kandy and her staff were a dream to work with. We literally bought our house in Gloucester sight unseen with only a FaceTime walk thru. She made it extremely easy since we were about 600 miles away could not ask for a better realtor.

She made the whole process easy for us her honesty and patience(working with my husband lol) made it just an awesome process.

"MaryBeth and Evans where such a phenomenal team to work with during the process of selling our house. They worked with us every step of the way, form the very start to the very end. They kept us informed of changes and expectations that may have arise. Their very positive personalities made the selling process easy and as care free as selling a house could be :). I would recommend them to anyone I know that is in the process of selling their house. Thank you both for everything!"

Kaera helped my husband and I purchase out first home and the process went very pleasantly. She was upfront and honest about cost associated with the home purchase and also made sure represented us well when negotiating purchase price and items that we wanted fixed prior to closing. Overall the experience was excellent.

This was my first time buying a home and Christen and Kandy made it such a smooth process. Christen took her time to show me as many homes as it took to find the perfect one- even taking up back to back weekends. As a first time homebuyer I really appreciated that they discussed maintenance schedules with me and explained some of the intricacies of the crawl space (I’m used to a basement). I must have asked them a million questions at all times of the day and night and they were speedy about answering when the smallest question in detail. I found my forever home, but if I were to sell or buy again I’d definitely use them!

Working with Mrs. Kihalani Payton was truly one of the best decisions we made during our home-buying journey. From the very beginning, she made what could have been an overwhelming and stressful process feel smooth, exciting, and genuinely enjoyable. She helped us knock everything out of the park, all while my husband’s deployed, which made her dedication, communication, and support mean even more.
One of the things that makes Mrs. Kihalani stand out is her incredible knowledge of Hampton Roads. She doesn’t just know the real estate market. she knows the communities. Her understanding of the area’s history, schools, churches, neighborhoods, and local resources comes from years of being actively involved and volunteering within the community. That personal connection gave us confidence that we weren’t just buying a house; we were choosing the right place to build our future (long term/short term)
She helped us find an amazing home that checked so many boxes: close to work, close to the beach, and surrounded by incredible opportunities like gifted centers and academies. She was able to help us secure a SWEET deal, and we are so grateful for her negotiation skills, expertise, and dedication.
What truly impressed us was how she knew exactly when to be gentle and when to put the gloves on. With us, she was patient, understanding, and took the time to teach us every step of the process. She walked us through the real estate lingo, explained every document line by line, answered every question, provided checklists and made sure we fully understood what we were signing and why it mattered. She never made us feel rushed or overwhelmed.
But when it came time to advocate for us with sellers and listing agents, she knew exactly when to put those gloves on and fight for our best interests. She was professional, confident, and made sure we were protected while still handling everything with grace.
Mrs. Kihalani never pushed her opinions or tried to steer us toward something that wasn’t right for us. She listened, provided honest guidance, and shared her expertise when we asked for it. Her balance of knowledge, patience, and advocacy is truly unmatched.
Honestly, closing day was bittersweet because while we were beyond excited to officially have our home, it also meant I wouldn’t be talking with Mrs. Kihalani almost every day anymore 🥹! She became more than just our REALTOR®, she became someone we genuinely enjoyed talking to and someone we are incredibly grateful to have met.
If you’re looking for a REALTOR® who knows the area, cares deeply about her clients (as if you were her only), and will advocate for you every step of the way, Mrs. Kihalani Payton is the person you want in your corner. We cannot recommend her highly enough!
Thank you, Mrs. Kihalani, for helping us find our home and making this journey such a memorable experience. God Bless Your Heart 🏡✨

My husband and I just bought our first home and it's all thanks to Kaera Mims! She took what we were looking for and found us the absolute best match! She was patient and honest and answered all of our many questions whenever we had them. I love that I could text her or call her with anything and she'd get back to me right away. She's just all around great! We had by far the best experience with her help. We'd recommend Kaera to anyone!

I had a bit of a unique experience selling a property and trailer after a death in the family. As it was a difficult time and paperwork immense, my realtor, Carolyn Molly, not only walked me through each step, but also assisted me in finding and recovering information needed for the sale to go as smoothly as possible due to the circumstances. I appreciate all her efforts and would recommend Abbitt Realty to anyone looking to buy or sell.

So glad that we decided to use her on our purchase. She was very patient with us because we are VERY picky.
We appreciated that she never pushed us in any direction. She was also always willing to do whatever we asked when it came to checking on things or following up. She was just so helpful overall. Highly recommend!

Wonderful working with Carolyn Molly and the staff at Abbitt Realty in Gloucester. We used them for both purchasing and selling a home. Carolyn is extremely knowledgeable about the housing market and assists with finding qualified professionals to address repairs or other necessary inspections. She was very prompt and reliable in addressing questions or concerns we had throughout the buying and selling process.

Maurice did an awesome job handling the sale of two properties for us. His expert knowledge of the housing market and listing process were key to efficient and timely closing for both properties. The sale of our primary residence closed within 22 days of the listing date. Maurice was an active communicator and very responsive to our requirements. Excellent work.

Mr. Maurice Hadley is, without a doubt, the best Realtor I have worked with in my fifteen years of investing in Ohio, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. From day one, he handled every aspect of the listing and sale of my property in Newport News with skill, knowledge, professionalism, and class. He communicated regularly, responded quickly, provided accurate and timely information, and was always two steps ahead of me with quotes and solutions to any issues or concerns that came up. Maurice was a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend him for your next real estate deal. I will surely look for him the next time I buy or sell in the Hampton Roads metropolitan area!

Mary Beth is passionate about helping her clients and she is a pleasure to work with. She patiently answered our questions and helped us figure out what to do.
