Hello! My name is Robert M. Pickles Jr. and I am a 30-plus year resident of Hampton Roads. Like many of the "near natives," I came to the area compliments of the U.S. Navy. Phrases like "high energy, fun-loving" and "extremely professional," best characterize my approach to buying, selling and building homes.

My varied background in sales, management and technology has made me extremely successful in the real estate industry. Personally experienced as both a buyer and a seller, I know how valuable technology is when it comes to maximizing exposure in the marketplace. I left a senior management position with ForRent.com in marketing and technology to spend more time working directly with the people who actually buy, build and sell homes.

I am a full-time agent and I love my work. While buying and selling homes can be stressful, I always take the time and effort to ensure the whole experience is enjoyable for my clients. If you are a first-time buyer, you'll appreciate my background and the mature, professional support I provide. Sellers will benefit from the honest and candid manner in which I present the facts surrounding your sales opportunity.

If you are considering building your dream home, you will want an agent that knows the tricky aspects of new construction. And finally, if you are an experienced buyer, you can appreciate having a "partner" that gets the job done, and intuitively understands your goals.
