She will be our agent for any real estate need going forward. She is extremely professional and organized, has endless knowledge about the area, and was always there to answer our questions along the way. She did a great job explaining everything we needed to know and we didn't move forward until we understood it. She was patient with me even when I didn't take her recommendation and with hindsight I wish I had. I believe that she always had our best interest at heart even when it may have not been to her short term benefit (we ended up renting our old home rather than selling it). She has a great network of people that helped us at every point along the way. I would say that it was exactly the experience that we had hoped for but it was far better than that. read less

Debbie and her team worked tirelessly finding us a home that fit our demanding criteria while we were stationed overseas with little time/opportunity to view homes locally. Within a few short weeks, Debbie assisted us through the processes of narrowing our criteria while ensuring our needs were fully met. Her knowledge of the local community and network of experienced, local professionals in banking, title, and inspections is unrivaled and ensured that we were comfortable throughout the sales process. A wonderful experience and our family is now enjoying a beautiful home in the right neighborhood with fantastic schools and at the best possible price point. Thank you, Debbie!! read less

We were working with an agent through Navy Federal, we had no idea where to start. The agent we got put with did not give us any information we needed for buying a house. She took us to houses that did not meet our criteria, and was way out of our price range. So, I decided to start randomly looking online for houses. We saw one that interested us and put in our contact info to go view the place. Not even five minutes later, we get a call from Howard Hannah. Debbie Woolard got assigned to us randomly and asked us what/where/how much/needs/wants and just about everything she needed to know to help us in any way possible. We didn't like the first house so she took us to her company building to learn about buying a house in an informative video. She then proceeded with a stack of paperwork that told us all about what we needed to know. She made us feel welcomed and comfortable. So, we decided to look over houses in the online portal that she walked us through. She made it so easy for us to find EXACTLY what we wanted. We went home that night and went through about 200 houses and choose which ones we wanted to view. That night she was able to schedule a viewing for the next day. We saw a couple houses with her. One time she was helping other people so her husband whom she works with took her place for the day. It was nice that she had a backup in case she needed to be helping other customers. It only took THREE days to find our home! I was blown away that she could work her magic that fast. She treated us like family and made it easy to work with her. She answered whenever we had a question (which was a lot). The inspector she had for us was very thorough with the inspection. He got back to us right away. She spoke with the previous owners of the house and inspector to keep things going smoothly and did any paperwork that needed to be done. We even got our house 5,000 under the asking price and had some requests that got filled thanks to Debbie. The day of closing went smoothly and quickly. Originally, my husband was going to be there for closing but last minute had to leave with his ship. Debbie informed me that I needed power of attorney and how to get it. She made sure I had all the paperwork I needed for day of close. Overall, we we're pleased to work with her. If you want someone who can get the job done to the best of your needs, she's your gal!! She's a true professional and a genuinely nice person. Her hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off. We have our dream home, and she made that possible for us. Thank you, Debbie! read less

We were out of state buyers and she was very accommodating to our unique situation. She really understood what we were looking for in a home. We bought our house without ever seeing it in person. Debbie did a FaceTime tour and was present for the home inspection and was able to describe the home well enough that we felt comfortable buying it without ever seeing it for ourselves. We really trusted her and are glad we did! read less

We were first time home buyers and she explained the process and answered any questions we had. She worked around our schedule because at the time my husband and I were both Active duty. She showed us a total of 3 houses and the third house we looked at was the one for us! She was able to find a home on almost an acre lot (0.97 of an acre) and it was close to the Naval base (approximately 7 minutes)! She was respectful of our budget. We are a military family and received new orders. We contacted Debbie and she put us in touch with a great property manager because we did not want to sell and had plans to return to the area. We have owned the home for almost 5 years and Debbie has gone above and beyond to help us! read less

I feel as if I was spoiled by finding Debbie Woolard from William E Wood & Associates as I can't imagine a better realtor to have on your side. I am active duty military and am always on travel between deployments and cross-country trips for training. Debbie always kept me informed of New properties that would be freshly posted on the market and was always willing to take me to see anything that caught my eye. No matter what day or time of day it was, Debbie always went out of her way to ensure I would not miss the opportunity to see a house I truly loved. Debbie was able to take all my needs for a dream home and narrow down the houses for sale to match my liking as well as save a tremendous amount of time. I ended up finding an amazing home in east Virginia Beach for an unimaginable price. My close date was set for two weeks out past one of my planned trips which would have me needing a power of attorney to have someone else close. As that was not how I was comfortable doing, Debbie and her AMAZING TEAM worked countless hours around the clock to push up my closing date by 2 weeks before I stepped off for a 4 week work trip. I couldn't have asked for a better blessing by having Debbie Woolard and Rusty Parker to make my process one that was unforgettable. If you are planning on buying a home, Debbie Woolard is the realtor you want by any and all means. read less

From staging suggestions, to her excellent photography of the house, to marketing, sale and final negotiations, she managed to make what can be a very stressful experience into a manageable fact of life. Ms. Woolard walked us through every aspect of the sale from initial contact to closing and dealt with us very patiently. Every contact we had with her was timely and helpful. She treated us with respect and listened to our concerns. If you must sell, you must list with Debbie Woolard. We were very lucky we did. read less

She even was willing to assist me months later when contacted her after not having done so since the property was first purchased. She not only remembered exactly who I was, but also provided the exact information I needed. Thank you very much, Debbie! read less
