I found Cheryl through a google search and liked that the reviews said she was good with first-time home-buyers and enjoyed helping her clients understand the entire home-buying process—which I am/was and very much needed as much help as I could get. I would recommend her to ANYONE looking to buy a home in the Lynchburg or surrounding areas as she very much lived up tot he hype. Not once did she make me feel bad about my lower budget as I found with a couple other realtors and she worked with me and actually really listened to what I wanted and needed and what my concerns were. She asked what I might be open to seeing that was outside my initial wants list and really made me feel comfortable with the price-point I was searching in. It can be hard in this (or what was the really tough, no inspections, initial offer over asking price offer wars, etc.) market and she made sure I was comfortable with all of it. she also did not balk whenever I gave her a long list of houses I wanted to view and each time pointed out what looked good and what may need to be checked and what was odd/not normal for a listing or what was normal, which made me feel confident in my opinions of each house I saw.
When I finally found the house that became my new home it was listed over asking (I had asked to see it just in case it ever came down in price a second time) and she did her research before we even walked through the door—checking with the listing agent if there was wiggle room in the price, why it was on the market so long, what the are is like and what the market looked like in that neighborhood. Cheryl walked me through the entire process and was always, amazingly, patient with me no matter how many times I asked the same question to try to get my head around the process or next steps or what I should consider when making my decisions. She held my hand each step of the way, which was great as I was on my own in this process, and she made sure I was comfortable with everything. The process went so smoothly I could not believe my luck and I know it was in no small part because of Cheryl’s efforts. Closing day we hit a snag with the final walk-through (the seller’s realtor’s fault, not mine) but even then Cheryl fought for me and made sure everything was as it should have been BEFORE I signed the papers—which was great as I feel with anyone else by my side I would have either been pressured to just sign and then try my luck at getting things fixed OR I would have given up and walked away from all of it.
If you are looking for someone who will help you, and I mean actually have your back, suggest options for each house—inspections, contingencies, what plumbers or handymen or anything—and will take your wants and needs into consideration, I suggest you go with Cheryl. I cannot praise her enough and I feel so fortunate knowing from all of the horror stories out there about the home-buying process, especially for first-time home-buyers in the recent market that it could have gone so much differently, that I got the house I was meant to because she was with me. She truly loves what she does and it shows every step of the way!

“It has been such a pleasure working with Lynchburg’s Finest Real Estate. You all are so much more than the average Realtor. This process has the potential to be stressful and yet somehow you made it so easy, enjoyable and exciting. You all have taken care of me from the first time I was just browsing, to choosing an excellent lender and staying on top of the buying process every step of the way. I can’t thank you enough for caring about my concerns throughout. I’m so happy to be loving my new home!”

“I was initially impressed with Betsy by her professionalism, personality and real estate knowledge. Their moral compass paralleled mine and I felt comfortable in selecting Lynchburg’s Finest to represent me. I will say they were always available, a phone call or text away. I was very vocal of my needs and wants during the sale process, as my home was a licensed facility through the state as I care for family members with special needs. No matter what “non traditional” request I thought I may have had, Betsy and Robin handled such request with grace and confidentiality, poise and professionalism.

Our home was listed and within 24 hours a
showing was scheduled, and these are ultimately the ones who purchased the home, above asking with no abnormal contingencies.

The process for me was very smooth and effortless, and I strongly believe I owe that to Lynchburg’s Finest
Real Estate!”

Cheryl Boyd has represented my husband and I on both sides of the table - sale(s) and purchase in the last couple of years. In the sales process, she was able to bring us top dollar for our home(s) and gave us outstanding guidance on how to best show them. During the purchase process, Cheryl was our champion when dealing with a difficult seller and highly unusual circumstances (COVID had just shut Virginia down). She was highly meticulous when it finally came time to close. She reviewed our settlement statement and challenged fees that only an experienced agent would know to look for. We wouldn’t even consider going with any other agent!

A realtor sells you a house, a friend finds you a perfect home. A realtor cares when it’s convenient or lucrative, a friend genuinely reaches out to learn your needs. A realtor fits you into their schedule, a friend is always there to reassure you. It’s hard for me to even call Gary a realtor because he quickly became my friend. If you need a guide through your house buying experience, then I highly recommend contacting Gary McCullough. He helped guide me through my first home buying experience.

Jason Jones did an amazing job at finding the perfect home for my family! He was detail oriented making sure we didn’t settle for the first option. He spent many hours working with us and never gave up until he found us the perfect home. He is super patient and is a great communicator.

Betsy became a close personal friend who was extremely honest and informative in both the sale of our house (3 weeks) and the purchase of our new house. The entire process was extremely good and as free of stress as the sale and purchase of a home can be. I have recommended her on several occasions and feel she lives up to her firm’s name “LYNCHBURG’S FINEST”!
— Bob & Brenda Phillips
From the first phone call, I knew we had the right agent. Gary was understanding of our needs and preferences and was responsive and flexible with our busy schedule. He was knowledgeable and helped guide us through our process seamlessly. Gary made our first time home purchase stress free and enjoyable. Gary is not only an all around awesome guy but a terrific agent. My husband and I really enjoyed our experience working with Gary. We could not give a higher recommendation!
— Amy Carwile
Betsy is such a positive, passionate, motivated asset for anyone looking to sell their home. She is as responsive as anyone I’ve ever seen and she cares about how your home is presented to the market. It’s her name on the line, and she takes a lot of pride in her listings. She gives great advice, knows the industry well, and works tirelessly on your behalf. She will help you get the most out of your investment. I cannot recommend Betsy enough.
— Elisha & Jeremy Dudley
Betsy is so knowledgeable! We had listed with a previous realtor previously who could not sell our home. Betsy walked through it and told us what we can do to help improve our chances as well as connected us with her contacts. She sold our home very quickly and her entire team was so easy to work with.
— Frank & Emily Sheffield
Betsy is an excellent realtor! She helped us sell our home and buy a new home. She listened to exactly what our family needed in purchasing our new home and she got us multiple offers on our house to sell in 2 days! She always made our family feel like a priority as clients. I highly recommend Lynchburg’s Finest!
— Nikki Campbell
Gary is an outstanding realtor. This was our first time buying a home and we couldn’t have gotten a better person to guide us through the process. Gary was informative, responsive, patient, and honest through the entire experience. He offers great advice and takes care of problems/issues promptly and effectively. He goes the extra mile for sure!

“I am 100% positive that I’m the one who should be shouting from the roof tops THANK YOU!! So many realtors said they wouldn’t touch this mess, but YOU not only helped us but you sold it!! So thankful for you and your team of people that have worked harder than they should have had to on this! Thank you for helping me to honor my dad by selling his house and not letting it actually go into foreclosure. You will definitely be the one I tell everyone I know about! I’m sure my Aunt Betty will do the same. She is truly amazed at the work that was done. We all are.”
— Roxanne Cyrus
Absolutely love Betsy and Matt. You will too! Under contract in less then 24 hours above asking price.
