I delight in telling people about the natural beauty, the small town atmosphere, big city amenities, and the excellent mixture of interesting and accomplished people who reside here from all over the world! Blacksburg, Christiansburg and the surrounding area has been my home and career location as a Realtor for over 20 years. Born and raised in the southern part of New Jersey, my husband, children and I have lived in North Carolina, Mississippi and Virginia. My husband, Roger, is a retired Forester and in 1980 we returned to this beautiful New River Valley and have made it our permanent home. We have 3 grown children and 6 grandchildren who also reside in the New River Valley. The data relating to real estate on this website comes in part from the Broker Reciprocity/IDX (Internet Data Exchange) Program of the New River Valley Multiple Listing Service, Inc. Real estate listings held by brokerage firms other than RE/MAX 1st Realty are marked with the Broker Reciprocity logo (IDX) and detailed information about them includes the name of the listing broker. IDX information is provided exclusively for consumers' personal, non-commercial use and may not be used for any purpose other than to identify prospective properties consumers may be interested in purchasing. The data is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed accurate by the MLS.

The people who do title searches have an extremely important job. They must ensure that the sellers really own the property being sold and that all liens against the property are being paid off as a result of the sale.
If the seller has had financial difficulties, for instance, and didn't pay his bills, there may be judgments that must be satisfied on or before the closing. Someone in addition to the party who signed the sales agreement may have an interest in the property. If so, it will be necessary for that person to sign the sales agreement and the deed that transfers ownership to the new buyer. The preliminary title report will also show any easements that run with the property. The Title Company will go back many years, examining what is called the "chain of title". If you learn that the property you are buying has title problems, don't panic. Most of them are resolved easily and in plenty of time to avoid delays in the closing.
