  Simply put, Wes is a professional striving to be the best Realtor in the area. Wes defines the word "BEST" by his satisfied clients, not by being the biggest. His goal is for every client to recommend him, and to use him again and again as the family Realtor! As a Virginia native, it was over 40 years ago, John Wesley Wagner, "Wes", one of four preacher's kids, spent many evenings watching the spray of the welding lights of the nearby Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Co. as work was nearing completion on the world's first nuclear powered aircraft carrier, the USS Enterprise. During the summertime, he and his older brother would ask the hard working shipyard workers during their lunch break for their soft drink bottles and collect as many as they could carry off on their bikes. Many relocation moves later (always around the state, except for one period near Sacramento, California) he returned to settle back on the Peninsula in the Yorktown/Williamsburg area. Even though he still occasionally picks up aluminum soft drink cans, you'll more likely see him putting together real estate sales. Wes loves to point out many outstanding features of the area that make it unique. "A great deal has changed and a lot has stayed the same. Continued evolving growth for the area has meant a fairly consistent, strong real estate market. Fortunately, the Southern charm and natural beauty of the area has remained intact."   |  | | Wes and Karen with sons, Jonathan and Ryan, and daughter, Denise |
 Wes is the proud and sometimes weary father of three children. His wife, Karen, is a registered nurse at a nearby school. "My wife's patience and caring have made a difference for many kids of our 'extended' family and to me." The Wagners live in Winder's Pond in the Grafton section of York County. Experience Matters: Over the last 20 years as a real estate professional, Wes has helped literally hundreds of families with their moves here. He knows the market through listening, hard work, and proper negotiation. People often underestimate how much money and hassle can be saved by choosing a Realtor skilled in negotiating. Wes has two brokers licenses and he consistently ranks in the top 2%-3% by sales volume of all the Peninsula agents. He is among only 5% of all the agents in the nation to qualify to be a Certified Residential Specialist (C.R.S.) further insuring that service to his clients is knowledgeable. He has a reputation for being conscientious with a persistent yet quiet demeanor. He is a Realtor that gets results! 
Top 5%.......Realtors for 2006, as well as closing over 6 million in sales for 2006. Continuous member of Outstanding Salesmanship Club for last 22 years. Earned Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) accreditation in 1996- Only 5% of agents qualify nationwide. Wes loves what he does as a real estate agent. "Because it is a people business there are few dull moments. The best part of my job is that when the day is over and we all go home I have satisfaction of knowing that I maybe had something to do with that place my customers and friends call 'home'." When you think of buying or selling your property anywhere in the Peninsula area, think of Wes Wagner. With the experience and the "it will be done attitude", Wes is the ideal choice to successfully help you through your real estate transaction to reach your goals.

Pricing >The Value of Your House
One of the sayings from the "gold-rush" days--"Them that's got the gold, sets the price!"--is also a principle that applies to real estate. We say that a house is only worth what someone will pay for it, even though the owner, the bank, and the agent all have their own opinions about the "market value" of a home. In other words, no sale ever takes place until the buyer agrees with the price.
How can sellers arrive at the maximum "fair" price that buyers are willing to pay? Buyers (and appraisers) make their decision based on comparisons. While shopping for a home, buyers will visit many similar homes in their price range and measure the features of each one against the price. They decide which house offers them the maximum value for the price. Buyers do not expect a home to be a "steal" or dramatically under-priced, but they do expect it to be a fair value.
Sellers must determine the value that their home offers in order to arrive at the right price. The real estate agent will advise the sellers what buyers should be willing to pay for their home, but the asking price is set by the seller.
