Volume 2: April 2025 Newsletter

Hi there! –

It’s tax day, and hopefully you’re all done with those! (I am, regrettably, not. It’s been a crazy couple of months, but I’m working on it!) The “experts,” whoever they are, say that this is the best week to sell your home, but here’s what I know. The best time to sell (or buy) is when you are ready, and when your home is ready. Rushing to fit some idea that the media (or anyone) says is the best is seldom the best fit for most people. But, if you’re wondering about the right time for the market, now(ish) is it, data wise.
Curious about your home or where you want to move? Give me a call. I’d love to talk specifics.

Today we’re talking about:

✔️ 🍕Pizza. What’s your favorite RVA slice? Here are mine!
✔️ 📈  Market Update
✔️ 🥘 Hummus Capital of the World? Richmond Claims the Title!

🍕 It’s a hectic season, and for me, that means pizza. My RVA faves.
There’s something about spring that’s just…busier. More travel, more getting outdoors, more school events, more sports. Just more everything. Even for those of us that love to cook, it can be a lot. But what works for nearly everyone? Pizza! We finally have some amazing choices here in the Richmond area, and I’m spilling the tea (sauce?) on my favorites HERE.
I’d love to know yours!

📈 What’s the Market Doing?

“Second verse, same as the first?” or we could just say, “ditto” from the last market update, because things haven’t changed too terribly much since the last one. The good news? Despite the national news and anecdotes from other markets, our market is still moving, with a relatively low days on market and no dip in prices at all.

🥘 Hummus Capital of the World? Richmond Claims the Title!

You might know Richmond, Virginia for its historical significance or its vibrant culinary scene. But did you know that Richmond lays claim to a more unexpected title: **Hummus Capital of the World?**

It might seem strange, given that hummus isn’t exactly a local invention. However, Chesterfield County, part of the greater Richmond area, is home to **the world’s largest Thomas’ factory**. This 100,000-square-foot facility, owned by the company Sabra, churns out **more hummus than any other place on earth**.

While the origins of hummus may lie elsewhere, Richmond has clearly embraced this delicious and healthy dip as its own. With Sabra constantly innovating and releasing new flavors like buffalo, BBQ, and southwest, there’s no shortage of reasons for Richmond residents to be proud of their city’s unique claim to fame.


                          Do you have home questions, need contractor referrals, or are you (or someone you know)                                   thinking of buying or selling a home in the Richmond area?
