Long & Foster Real Estate welcomes Kevin Bare to its Westham office in Richmond, Virginia. Bare will specialize in working with homebuyers and sellers.

“We are very excited and fortunate to have Kevin join our team of highly trained professionals,” said Donna Procise, manager of the Westham office. “The combination of Long & Foster and Kevin’s unique skills and knowledge will no doubt provide the highest level of service to local buyers and sellers.”

Bare is participating in Long & Foster’s Success Path program, which offers extensive training and resources for agents at any stage of their career. The program’s curriculum includes tools for agents to build their business, mentor-style programs, techniques for prospecting and working with buyers and sellers, skills for negotiating and more. Bare holds membership in the Richmond Association of Realtors.

“The dynamics of today’s residential real estate market are constantly changing. Participating in our Success Path program has provided Kevin with the right tools to meet those changing dynamics,” said Gary Scott, president of Long & Foster Real Estate. “We welcome Kevin to Long & Foster, a company that has helped local buyers and sellers reach their homeownership goals for nearly 50 years.”

Growing up in Richmond’s West End, the youngest of three siblings, Bare was always on the go and lived a very active lifestyle. Both of his parents worked for their employers for over 40 years, which is almost unheard of these days, but taught them all the importance of loyalty and dedication to their craft.

After 18 years in retail management and banking, Bare has come to know the significance of building client relationships and friendships. Real Estate has been the next step in giving his new and lifelong clients a much more personal experience, where he can cater to their exact needs while helping them with one of the biggest investments of their lives.

Bare is the proud father of two middle school age children, who both share his passion for the outdoors. He enjoys biking, hiking, duck hunting, fishing, going to the beach, and spending time with close friends, family and his two labs, Brooks and Hank.
