The RGCV STORY
While The Realty Group - Coastal Virginia was technically founded in July of 2023, our story truly starts back in the fall of 2005/Spring of 2006, because that’s when the company's partners, Keith Hinton (Founder) and Heather Roemmich (CEO) made their way into the real estate industry.
Keith entered real estate with a 2 year old daughter, a wife (Kim) that was eight months pregnant with their second daughter, and no other source of income whatsoever. Fortunately, through blessing and hard work, he launched his career by selling 52 homes in his first year in 2006.
Over the course of the last 19 years, Keith has sold hundreds of homes, operated four different real estate franchises, and coached several owners of real estate teams.
Heather jumped into our industry right after graduating from Virginia Tech University. Over the last 19 years, she has done everything from sales to operations, becoming the COO of the area’s largest team and overseeing it for several years.
After knowing each other for 15 years, the timing was right for Keith and Heather to partner in business together. Over several meetings, they realized they were both passionate about the idea of truly transforming the real estate client experience.
Hence, The Realty Group-Coastal Virginia was born and we are striving every day to enhance the level of service and representation that we provide to our clients.
As you’ll see in the following pages, we are unique in how we do things. We think and act from a standpoint of abundance vs. scarcity and we do everything with the goal of creating long-term, mutually beneficial business relationships.
Whether we mutually decide that working together is an excellent fit or not, we truly appreciate the time and energy that you’re putting towards exploring a client relationship with us.

OUR TEAM
Company: The Realty Group-Coastal Virginia
Born and raised in the Philippines, I moved to Hampton Roads in 2022 in pursuit of greater opportunities and a better life. Since then, I have been focused on building a future here both personally and professionally by serving the community with care, integrity, and purpose.
Before entering real estate, I worked as a cardiovascular processing technician, where I was part of a highly specialized team that surgically processed donated human hearts for life-saving transplants. This role required an exceptional level of attention to detail, strict time management, and calm problem-solving under pressure. These skills translate directly into real estate, where accuracy, organization, and thoughtful decision-making are essential at every stage of the transaction.
I chose real estate because I genuinely enjoy helping people and wanted to play a meaningful role in one of the most important decisions of their lives. Whether guiding first-time buyers through the process or helping sellers make informed, strategic choices. I focus on education, transparency, and advocacy so my clients can move forward with confidence.
I am especially passionate about working with young families and first-time homebuyers. As someone building a family of my own, I understand how important it is to feel supported, heard, and protected throughout the buying or selling process. My goal is always to make the experience as smooth, beneficial, and stress-free as possible.
Clients who work with me can expect someone who truly listens, prioritizes their best interests, and delivers a high level of service. I am backed by a knowledgeable team with extensive experience and strong local connections, allowing me to provide both personalized guidance and reliable support.
Outside of real estate, I enjoy staying active through sports such as pickleball, golf, basketball, and pool. In the long term, I hope to be known as an agent who genuinely cares, someone whose clients become lifelong relationships rather than just completed transactions.
