About Us

Who We Are

Park27 is a Richmond-based boutique real estate advisory firm built for people navigating life’s big transitions who want guidance, not pressure. We act as true advocates, leading clients through high-stakes decisions with strategy, precision, and candor, so they feel informed at every turn, protected from guesswork, and confident they’re making the strongest possible move.

The Story Behind a Name

Park27 began as more than a new name. It grew from a pattern Chris Small had seen too often in Richmond real estate: an industry running on habit, guiding clients through life-changing moves with little more than outdated playbooks, treating a life-changing decision like just another deal. Chris believed real estate should be a practiced discipline, rooted in foresight, honesty, and strategy worthy of the stakes involved. Over time, he became known for slowing the process down, telling hard
truths others avoided, and helping clients see what every choice meant for their future.

Park27 is the evolution of that approach: a boutique real estate advisory firm for people navigating life’s big transitions in Central Virginia. A team of like-minded professionals who believe clients deserve more than salesmanship, they deserve an advocate bringing precision, strategy, and candor to every decision. Today, Park27 sets a higher standard. Every home we represent, every client we guide, every deal we negotiate is treated like it matters, because it does. We practice with purpose, cut through noise with insight, and help clients move forward fully informed and certain they’ve made the right call.

Worldview

In an industry where surface-level effort has replaced real expertise and too many decisions are driven by habit instead of insight, we believe life-changing real estate choices deserve patience, precision, and truth that clear the fog and steady the process so that every client can move forward with confidence, fully informed and fully protected.

Core Beliefs

We believe:

• Clarity creates confidence because clients deserve to see every option clearly before making life-changing decisions.
• Preparation protects value because outcomes aren’t luck, they’re the result of strategy, foresight, and attention to detail.
• Being forthright builds trust because real guidance doesn’t mean saying what’s easy; it means saying what’s right.
• Standards shape futures because the way real estate is practiced impacts homes, neighborhoods, and the lives connected to them.
