Long & Foster Real Estate, the largest independent residential real estate company in the United States, welcomes Justin Charnock to its Tuckahoe office, in Richmond, Va. Charnock will specialize in working with homebuyers and sellers.

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

Charnock successfully completed Long & Foster’s Star Builders program, an extensive training course for newly licensed sales associates, as well as associates returning to the field of real estate. The program’s curriculum covers contracts, agency, prospecting, business planning, finance and working with buyers and sellers. Charnock holds membership in the Richmond Association of Realtors.

“My mother, Betty Lou Charnock, is also an agent with Long & Foster. Her broker highly suggested the Tuckahoe Office and knew Scott Ruth would lead me to success,” Charnock said.

“The dynamics of today’s residential real estate market are constantly changing. Completing our Star Builders program has provided Justin with the right tools to meet those changing dynamics,” said Gary Scott, president of Long & Foster Real Estate. “We welcome Justin to Long & Foster, a company that has helped local buyers and sellers reach their homeownership goals for more than 45 years.”
