The Jessica Russo Team / Nest Realty Group / Charlottesville Crozet Realtor.

Overview

If you have spent any time scrolling real estate listings around Crozet, you have probably watched one of Jessica Russo's neighborhood videos without quite realizing it: a walk through Grayrock, a tour of Stonegate, a short explainer titled simply "Moving To Crozet." That is the shape of how the Jessica Russo Team works. Rather than treating a house as a set of square-footage figures, the team leans on the thing that actually decides where people land west of Charlottesville, which is the neighborhood itself, its streets, its distance from town, the feel of a given cul-de-sac on a weekday evening.

The team operates under jessicarussoteam.com and is affiliated with Nest Realty Group, the brokerage that appears as the listing agent on several of the homes the team has recently sold. The tagline the site returns to is "Live Where You Love," which is a tidy summary of a practice built around helping people match a house to the specific corner of the region they want to be in.

Who they are

Jessica Russo is the agent at the center of the team, and the site's own framing is that her work fits two kinds of client especially well: the first-time homebuyer who needs the process explained and paced, and the experienced seller who wants it handled. She holds the Accredited Buyer's Representative designation, an ABR credential that signals specific training in representing buyers rather than sellers, which matters in a market where a lot of the tension in a transaction sits on the buyer's side. Her professional profile is registered with the Charlottesville Area Association of Realtors.

The team covers a wider territory than Crozet alone. The site maintains full neighborhood guides for Crozet, Charlottesville, and Keswick, and the active and recently sold listings range across all of it, from homes in the low $400,000s to properties above $700,000. But Crozet is clearly a focus. Several of the team's featured videos are set here, and its recent sold list includes homes in Crozet neighborhoods like Stonegate, where a home on Stonegate Lane sold for $585,000.

How they work

What distinguishes the team's approach, at least in how it presents itself, is the neighborhood-first orientation. Before a listing photo or a price, the site offers you a guide to the place. The featured video library is organized by community rather than by house, Grayrock, Stonegate, Cascadia, each treated as a destination worth understanding on its own terms. For anyone who has tried to figure out from a distance whether they want to be in Old Trail or closer to downtown Crozet or out toward Cascadia, that framing is genuinely useful, because those are different lives, not just different addresses.

On the seller side, the team offers a home valuation, described on the site as a free report on a property's current value, alongside the more standard listing and buyer representation services. The full listing feed pulls from the regional MLS, so the homes the team shows are not limited to its own inventory, which is what you would expect from a buyer's agent working across the Charlottesville area.

Getting in touch

The office is at 1135 Rose Hill Dr Ste 100, Charlottesville, VA 22903, on the Rose Hill Drive side of town, and the team can be reached at (434) 996-3176. Listed hours run 9 AM to 9 PM, seven days a week, which for a real estate practice reads less as a storefront schedule than as an honest signal of when an agent is actually reachable, which in this line of work is most of the time. Whether you are starting from a neighborhood video and working backward toward a house, or you already know the street you want and need someone to get you onto it, the starting point is the same: pick the place you want to live, then figure out the home.
