Kevin H. Lacey brings a wealth of knowledge to his clients. Upon entering the real estate business in 1992, he promptly made his first paycheck: a whopping $200! However since those early days in 1992, Kevin Lacey has made real estate history in the Shenandoah Valley.
Arguably, no one person in the history of real estate sales in the Shenandoah Valley has sold more real estate than Kevin H. Lacey. He has been the #1 real estate salesperson since 1996 and in December of 2001, opened his own real estate firm, the Lacey Real Estate Group.
Kevin was the first in the area to employ a full-time real estate assistant. Kevin also was the first in the area to enlist the help of full-time Buyer Specialist. He now has three full-time Buyer Specialists, agents who work exclusively with buyers only.
The Buyer Specialist concept is a unique one. The Buyer Specialist concentrates solely on the needs of buyers. They are not distracted by handling the needs of sellers and their listings. Instead, their sole goal is to give personal attention to prospective homebuyers, to negotiate in the interests of buyers, and look out for the buyer's best interests.
The Lacey Real Estate Group has a structure that is on the cutting-edge in the real estate business, but, again, that is nothing new for Kevin Lacey. The company is led by Kevin, who handles the needs of home sellers exclusively, and is not distracted by the needs of buyers. He solely lists homes and therefore, can negotiate with full allegiance for the seller.
Kevin employs the help of a listing coordinator, Lori Wease, who handles everything for Kevin's listings, from taking pictures, making brochures to measuring room sizes, sign placement, and following up for feedback after REALTOR®s' showings. She prides herself on follow-up and the personal touch that is the hallmark of the Lacey Real Estate Group.
As mentioned earlier, Kevin was the pioneer in having an agent represent buyers only, and coined the position, Buyer Specialist. His first Buyer Specialist was his wife, Vonda Lacey. Vonda joined Kevin's team in 1996 and was promptly named the board of REALTORS® Rookie of the Year. She has always been one of the top agents in the area and in 2003, was the 3rd ranked selling agent for the entire MLS system. She prides herself in the personal touch and currently specializes in relocation.
The difference in the Lacey Real Estate Group not only lies in how this firm is structured, but by the personal touch and caring that is felt by each and every client. Just listen to one of their clients:
"Having dealt with a number of real estate firms both here and in other states, I will tell you that you are the best! From the beginning, I had full confidence in you and I was not disappointed..."
