Long & Foster Real Estate, the largest privately-owned residential real estate company in the United States, welcomes Kelly Lee to its Shore Drive-Coastal office, in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Lee will specialize in working with homebuyers and sellers.

“We are very excited and fortunate to have Kelly join our team of highly trained professionals,” said John Powell, managing broker of the Shore Drive-Coastal office. “The combination of Long & Foster and Kelly’s unique skills and knowledge will no doubt provide the highest level of service to local buyers and sellers. We welcome Kelly to Long & Foster, a company that has helped local buyers and sellers reach their homeownership goals for more than 45 years.”

A Hampton Roads native, Lee resides in the Shore Drive community and is a member of both the Hampton Roads Realtors Association and the National Association of Realtors. After getting married, Lee and her family moved frequently due to her husband’s job relocations and those experiences provided her with a unique knowledge of the needs of families new to an area and how to effectively and efficiently acclimate to a new community.

Lee said she prides herself on being well organized and client focused, and she is driven to create the most positive, least stressful home purchase experience for her clients. She said she is happy to join the Long & Foster family and looks forward to bringing a wealth of knowledge, integrity and honesty to her practice for each and every client.

Lee’s tenure in the community includes working in early education, mental health and with parent teacher association boards, providing her with excellent insight when her clients require a trusted resource or referral for services. Her two children attend local public schools and are active in a number of sports, recreational teams and volunteer programs. A graduate of George Mason University, Lee completed her master’s degree in social work at Norfolk State University.
