    With a diverse background and a deep passion for real estate, I bring a wealth of experience to the industry. Before transitioning into real estate, I spent years working as a roofing and general contractor in both Florida and Massachusetts. That hands-on experience gave me a strong understanding of the construction process, which is incredibly helpful when advising my clients on property investments, renovations, and inspections. I grew up working alongside my father, learning the ins and outs of buying, fixing, and renting multifamily properties. That early exposure sparked a lifelong interest in real estate. Later, I worked as an engineer for the Navy, which helped me develop a unique, analytical perspective when it comes to evaluating and negotiating deals. Now, as a dedicated husband and father of two, I’m passionate about helping families find the perfect home. When I’m not working, I love spending time with my kids, getting outdoors, and teaching them the value of hard work and dedication. My strong work ethic and in-depth industry knowledge make me a reliable resource for clients looking to make smart, informed decisions in real estate. Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, I’m here to guide you every step of the way with professionalism, integrity, and a personal touch.

Prior to getting into real estate I served in the Navy on Submarines for eight years and subsequently worked as a Lead Test Engineer on Submarines for another nine years. After resigning from government I worked in the automotive industry as a General Manager and it was there that I discovered my love of caring for people in my local community. It was fulfilling caring for my customers cars, but I found that caring for all their home needs would be more meaningful.  I’ve lived all throughout the Southeast, but Hampton Roads has been my home for over sixteen years now. I’ve worked and lived in several cities throughout the area and am very familiar with the area and local neighborhoods. In my free time I enjoy cycling all throughout Isle of Wight and Southampton County, woodworking, homesteading, reading, home renovations, and spending time with my five children. I personally performed my home renovations and use this expertise in order to help clients make informed decisions when it comes to buying or selling their homes.  I have utilized all of my knowledge and past experience to help me succeed as a real estate agent. I pride myself on being able to provide tailored advice and support, with each client receiving extensive individual attention. My life has prepared me to advocate for my clients no matter how difficult the circumstance. I also have an award winning team to ensure our clients receive quality service to make the home buying / selling process as smooth as possible. Let me help you find your dream home today!!

    I’ve lived in other parts of the country, but I kept coming back to Hampton Roads and I’m here to stay! Originally from the small town of Wakefield, Virginia, I love the water and friendly people of Hampton Roads. The area has so much to offer and I enjoy showing it off. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a Bachelor’s Degree in Agricultural Economics and received my Master’s Degree in Adult Education from Virginia Commonwealth University. For twenty years, I helped companies and their families move to the area from all over the world. My former professions taught me how to balance serving clients and paying close attention to detail. I know that not everyone will have the same desires and wants, so I focus on honing in on what each client needs, and delivering it to them. At the end of a closing, I want my clients to walk away feeling like I’ve answered all of their questions and made a complex process as simple as possible. I know I’ve done my job whenever I hear a client say, “Wow, that was so much easier than I expected!” When I’m not helping my clients, I enjoy spending time with my wife and our two boys. There’s nothing like the great outdoors, unwinding to music, or being on any beach with my family. My family and I are proud to call Hampton Roads home. I’m so glad that I get to focus on helping my clients find the right home, right here! It’s even more fun when it’s someone who has lived here for years and I get to show them Hampton Roads for the first time...again!

    I personify integrity, energy, hard work, and creative service in every detail of your real estate transaction. I grew up in Columbus, Ohio, and started my sales career at a young age showing horses with my older sister, and now I am showing homes to future homeowners. I moved to the Hampton Roads area after falling in love with the beaches and rich culture around the 7 Cities. Coming from a close-knit family, finding a working home with The Ron Sawyer Team at RE/MAX Prime was a no-brainer. The strong support I receive from my Team-Family helps to make my job more rewarding. I am an athlete by nature. My competitiveness can not only be shown when negotiating deals for my clients, but it can also be shown at the bowling alley or while playing a game of kickball. I also enjoy watching college football and catching my favorite band at a concert. My experience in advertising has led me to become a great Realtor. I understand the importance of marketing a home, and I use this innovative approach when working with clients. I take pride in being able to listen to my clients and offer them progressive solutions when buying or selling their home. I love the feeling I get after looking at many homes and walking into the next showing knowing this is the house for my clients. To this day, I still get chills when it happens. There’s nothing like the moment we’re at the closing table and my clients realize they are now officially homeowners! It’s also an enjoyable feeling when I hear that they heard horror stories about the home buying or selling process, and they say how smooth of a process I made it for them. I want to take away all of your home buying or selling fears, and make the process as seamless as possible. I love helping families find their forever home!

    My name is Megan Parker and I am a Realtor on the award-winning Ron Sawyer Team at RE/MAX Prime. I am a California native, but Hampton Roads has been home to my family and me for over fifteen years. The beautiful weather, rich culture, and various attractions make Hampton Roads a place anyone would want to raise a family. When I’m not out negotiating homes for my clients, I’m negotiating my own household with my husband and our two active children. Patience, calm under fire, and good communication skills are essential for both. I am also a USA Swimming Official, nature lover, and avid volunteer. Before becoming a Realtor, over 12 years ago, I owned and managed book stores. Service was central to everything I did. That has not changed. I know that selling and buying a home can be stressful for anyone, and people want someone they can rely on. My goal is to take away my clients’ worries and help guide them through a very complex process. I want to make sure that, when it is over, they have a house that they are excited about turning into a home. I know what it takes to successfully close a transaction making the buying or selling experience positive and seamless!

    Hi, my name is Monica Selby! I was born in Japan and moved to Chesapeake when I was 10 due to being a part of a military family. I’ve lived in Chesapeake and have loved the Hampton Roads area ever since. I am married to my high school sweetheart, David, who is a longshoreman and Chesapeake native. In my spare time, I love going to the beach, riding bikes, and trying new places to eat. I’m also a proud graduate of Old Dominion University - Go Monarchs! My passion is truly helping others. Before starting my career in real estate, I worked at an assisted living facility specializing in programming activities and therapy for the senior population. I have a special place in my heart for the elderly, military families, and anyone in need of my help. One thing I’ve realized, from being in a military family, is that most need to buy/sell a home quickly. I want to use my real estate background and passion for helping others to make the home buying/selling process as streamlined as possible. It's important to me that I provide my clients with the level of care and communication that they deserve. If you or anyone you know is interested in my real estate services, please do not hesitate to give me a call. I would love to meet with you and help you find your perfect home.

Oh, and did I mention I hold a national youth soccer coaching license? I'm all about giving back and making a positive impact on the next generation. I truly believe in the power of karma—helping others achieve their goals has this magical way of coming back around. My ultimate goal in life?

    I've been a realtor for over 33 years now. I have been asked numerous times, “How are you so successful?” It’s simple! I show up every day, I do the right thing, and I treat people the way I want to be treated. It certainly is a bonus that I absolutely love what I do! It's such a rewarding job, as I am able to help people for a living. There's nothing more exciting than helping someone find their perfect home or assisting a seller in receiving top purchase price for their home. I have had an amazing support system over the years and still do! I have a wonderful husband, three successful adult children, and two adorable grandsons who call me Mimi. I’m blessed beyond measure! I've been with RE/MAX most of my real estate career. I even made their Hall of Fame. I love that we are Nationwide, as it's a name everyone knows. I take great pride in how much we have to offer our clients. I work with many military families who come and go to our area. My husband served 28 years in the Navy, followed by 16 years with the government. I can relate well to what it’s like moving from place to place. It can feel very overwhelming. I love working with first-time buyers, as well as seasoned buyers and sellers. Most of my clients come from referrals, which is very important to me. That means I’m doing my job and doing it well! If you are looking for an honest hard-working realtor that has your best interest at heart, that realtor would be me! Please feel free to call, text or email me anytime.

    Hello, my name is Travar and I am a Realtor on the award-winning Ron Sawyer Team at RE/MAX Prime. I'm also a proud 24-year U.S. Navy veteran, and I’ve called Hampton Roads home since 2013. As both a veteran and a family man, I know that a home is more than just a place to live—it’s where memories are made and cherished. To me, your home is your sanctuary, and it should always be treated as such. Whether you’re buying your first home, upgrading to your next, selling a property, finding the perfect retirement retreat, or searching for a great rental, my goal is to make the process as seamless and stress-free as possible. Having lived in six different states and experienced life as both a homeowner and a renter, I understand firsthand the challenges that come with navigating the real estate market. That perspective allows me to guide my clients with empathy, expertise, and a focus on creating an exceptional experience every time. When I’m not helping clients, you can usually find me cheering on my kids at their sports events, reading, exploring new restaurants, wine tasting, or traveling.

    trudian@theronsawyerteam.com

    Hi, I’m Trudian Palmer Mcleish, originally from St. Andrew, Jamaica. Born and raised on the island, I bring a unique cultural perspective and a warm, welcoming approach to real estate. My journey to Virginia began when my husband, who serves in the military, was stationed here. I quickly fell in love with the Hampton Roads area — it’s peaceful, family-oriented, and perfectly balanced with just the right mix of sunshine, community, and calm. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Hospitality Management, which naturally complements my client-centered approach to real estate. Before transitioning into this field, I worked as a Purchasing and Marketing Manager in the auto parts industry, where I developed strong organizational, negotiation, and customer service skills. I began my real estate career in 2019 with RE/MAX in Jamaica, and have since earned the 2022 RE/MAX Executive Club Award for outstanding performance. With over six years of experience, I’ve learned how to make the complex process of buying or selling a home seamless and enjoyable for my clients. As a military spouse and mother, I understand the unique challenges families face during relocation. This personal insight fuels my passion for helping others navigate their own transitions with ease. I’m known for my vibrant energy, infectious personality, and genuine care—qualities that help clients feel comfortable, informed, and valued throughout the entire process. I listen closely to understand each client’s goals, ensuring every decision is well-informed and every experience is a positive one. Outside of real estate, I’m all about family, food, and adventure. My home is always filled with love, laughter, and good food, and I enjoy cooking, baking, traveling, and exploring new destinations—especially tropical favorites like Bali, Phuket, and Hawaii. I never pass up the chance to try a new restaurant or cuisine, and I love discovering new experiences that bring people together. At the end of every closing, I’m most proud knowing I’ve helped my clients achieve their goals and start a beautiful new chapter in their lives. Seeing their excitement and knowing I played a part in helping them find not just a house, but a true home, is what makes this career so meaningful to me.

    Hampton Roads is a great place to live and work, which is why I choose to call it home. Born and raised in Chesapeake, I love the Seven Cities and all it offers. No matter which city you live in, you’re always close to the beach, and just a few hours away from the mountains. My wife, of almost twenty years, and I are proud to call Hampton Roads home. Together, we raise our three kids here, and we couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. When I’m not out making my clients happy, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. You can find me at a baseball game, taking ski trips, or hunting with my two sons. With over ten years of experience, I’m always sharpening my skills so that I can bring new information to my clients. In this business, it’s important to always be one step ahead.
