Hi, I’m Peggy Lasater, Realtor®. I don’t work for builders or the developers—I work for the folks dreaming about the perfect home in a 55+ community, people like you.
As Virginia’s top active adult community specialist, I specialize exclusively in representing buyers and sellers of homes in 55 plus active adult senior retirement communities in Virginia. And why wouldn’t I? Virginia is a beautiful state. I should know. It’s my home, too.
So whether you’re just browsing available homes, ready to buy, take a look around the site. You’ll find critical information you need to know before making the next move.
And when you’re ready to make a change—or if you just want to talk about your options—be sure to contact me. My wonderful clients are sure glad they did!
“Peggy was there every step of the way for Tony and myself. Moving across the country is not easy and Peggy made it a much easier transition for us. She was on top of everything that had to be done when there were problems. I highly recommend Peggy to anyone who wants a great realtor to work with.”
