Helped me buy home • Richmond City, VA • 2025

Ernie was very professional and helpful. He was realistic about out needs + nice to haves and didn't try and up-sell or push us into anything that we didn't want. His industry knowledge helped us quickly focus our search and avoiding wasting time. His guidance helped us consider options we would have originally rejected, which ultimately led us to purchase something that fit just what we were looking for with confidence. He was very communicative and informative throughout the entire process. We appreciate him walking us through our first time buying a home - it was a breeze!

Helped me buy home • Richmond City, VA • 2026

As first-time home buyers, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Ernie. We felt in good hands the entire time, and he was always easy to reach for advice or questions.Ernie knows the area insanely well and gave us lots of helpful insight along the way. He also had great recommendations for everything we needed—legal, mortgage, handyman, local spots, you name it.Ernie’s guidance on our offer was huge, and we ended up getting a house we honestly didn’t think we could get in our dream location. Look no further, Ernie’s the best!!

Helped me buy home • Richmond City, VA • 2025

I was specifically looking for a realtor with deep roots in Richmond’s culture and experience in Northside, Church Hill, and the East End. Ernie came highly recommended and he did not disappoint. As a first-time homebuyer, I appreciated how he navigated the specific quirks of these historic neighborhoods. By the time we put an offer down on my new home in Northside, I felt 100% confident in the process. I’ll definitely be sending my friends his way!

Listed and sold a home • Richmond City, VA • 2025

Ernie was the best realtor I have dealt with! I am over 66 yrs old and have bought a few properties in my life time. He was very responsive and helpful. He even helped when we had repairs to be done.He was able to get us over asking price after some negotiations. I would highly recommend him to everyone. I was told about Ernie from my son who used him in the past.He also helped some good friends of mine sell their house.Ernie should be your next realtor in Richmond, Va.

Helped me buy and sell homes • Richmond City, VA • 2025

Ernie is the best. Look no further for a realtor to buy or sell your home. I bought and sold the same house with Ernie. When buying he took the time to really understand what I was looking for and helped me find the right home for me. He has extensive knowledge of the Richmond area and the market. I was a first time home buyer and he made me feel really comfortable and at ease. He is very communicative and professional.I sold the same home after moving across the US. He took what could have been a very stressful and difficult situation and made it easier for me. He went above and beyond and treated my house like it was his own. He coordinated repairs with contractors and helped me get a good deal on some updates my house needed for sale. We sold very quickly and for a great price! I really appreciated his expertise and guidance. I am truly so grateful. Ernie is the right choice if you are looking for a Realtor who is professional, expert in his field, and dedicated to working hard for you.

Trust Ernie with your life- he helped my family find the perfect house for our low budget and then helped sell that house years later for the best profit. He is kind, understanding, patient and realistic. You could not find a better realtor (and person) to work with. I hope to work with him again!

If you’re in the market to buy or sell a home, Ernie Chamberlain is your guy! After living in my home for almost 29 years, Ernie and his GeorgeRVA associates made the process seem seamless. From staging, photos, marketing and above all clear and open communication, the entire process was stress-free. Ernie helped at every turn of this process. There are not enough positive words to say about the entire GeorgeRVA team, especially Meaghan Williams. I highly recommend contacting Ernie Chamberlain for the best experience possible! He even dog sat my pup once! Now that’s extraordinary customer service!

Ernie is amazing! He was the BEST we could ask for. As a first-time home buyer moving from FL to VA, we needed someone like Ernie to help us through each step. Ernie made this so easy for us. He is extremely knowledgeable of the area, responds quickly, always honest and truthful, SO helpful in the process and what everything means, he goes above and beyond while viewing houses by checking in crawl spaces, looking at appliances, checking for damages, etc etc. Any time we had a question or needed something, he was always a quick call or text away with an answer. Is it easy to see he is passionate and loves his job! 10/10 service, we highly recommend using Ernie!

  • Specialties across property types, price ranges, or client needs
