Community News & Real Estate Market Updates

The temperatures are lowering, the leaves are changing, and the pumpkins are growing, so it must be fall. Hampton Roads and Northeast North Carolina have so many must-do fall activities!  

One of the biggest fall must-do’s for our area is attending the Virginia State Fair in Doswell! It is a little drive out of our area but worth it. This year’s fair is from September 23 through October 2 and features rides, games, shows, concerts, and other family fun. It even has educational activities including agricultural, technological, and historical exhibitions, livestock displays, and competitions such as pig races.
