Our Story

Marlene & Team at RE/MAX 1st Olympic was built on a simple belief: that buying or selling a home should feel like working with a trusted neighbor, not a transaction. Since our founding, we've been rooted in Lynchburg, Campbell County, Altavista, and Bedford County — communities we love and call home.

Over 25 years and more than 1,400 homes sold, we've earned a reputation for honesty, local knowledge, and genuine care for every client. Whether you're a first-time buyer, a growing family, or a seasoned investor, our team brings the same dedication to every relationship.

As proud members of the RE/MAX network — one of the most trusted names in real estate — we combine global reach with deep local roots. That means more exposure for your listing, more resources for your search, and a team that truly knows every street, school, and neighborhood in Central Virginia.
