Joanne Mills

Hello! I’m Joanne Mills, an award-winning REALTOR with over 25 years of experience, dedicated to turning my clients' dreams into reality. I’ve been a lifelong resident of Amityville, nestled on the border of Suffolk and Nassau Counties, where I honed my skills in selling residential, multifamily, and investment properties throughout Long Island.

I recently made an exciting move to Virginia, bringing my passion for real estate and my motto— “Guiding Your Next Chapter—From New York Hustle to Virginia Hospitality”—with me. My journey has been fueled by a desire to provide exceptional service to my clients, and I’m thrilled to continue that commitment in my new home.

Specializing in marketing, negotiating, and innovative sales strategies, I leverage the power of social media to enhance my clients' experiences. I understand that purchasing a home is one of the most significant investments a person will ever make. Because of this, I believe REALTORS have a responsibility to be well-educated and equipped to provide the level of service and protection that my clients deserve.

One of my most memorable sales occurred in 2010 when, as an Accredited Buyers Representative, I helped my clients navigate the unique purchase of the infamous “Amityville Horror House.” This experience, which attracted international attention, taught me invaluable lessons about the nuances of real estate transactions and the importance of providing thoughtful guidance in unusual situations.

Throughout my career, I've been honored with numerous accolades, including Top Producer status and consistent placement in the Top 5% of agents year after year. I’ve also ranked among the top 100 agents within the entire Exit Franchise. In 2010, I took my passion for helping others to the next level by becoming an agent trainer as the Director of Agent Development at Exit Realty Premier. There, I had the privilege of educating fellow agents to reach their full potential, fostering a culture of growth and excellence within our community.

My expertise in social media and marketing has garnered national recognition. I’ve had the opportunity to speak at prestigious events, including the National Women’s Council of Realtors Conference and the Exit Realty International Convention, sharing insights with peers in Chicago, Las Vegas, and beyond. My expansive network of agents across the nation gives me a unique perspective on industry trends, allowing me to offer my clients insights before changes occur.

I proudly held memberships in the Long Island Board of Realtors, the Multiple Listing Service of Long Island, the New York State Association of Realtors, and the National Association of Realtors. I’m dedicated to the professionalism of our industry and volunteer my time as a committee member on the Education Committee of the Long Island Board of Realtors (LIBOR). I’ve also held significant leadership roles within the Women’s Council of REALTORS, a national network devoted to empowering individuals to unleash their potential as entrepreneurs and leaders. My commitment was recognized when I received the Member of the Year award in 2013 and served as the President of the Long Island Chapter of the WCR in 2014. I was honored to be featured as one of Long Island’s Power Women in Business in December 2016.

At the core of my philosophy is the belief that my success is inherently linked to helping others achieve theirs. My clients have become lifelong customers due to my commitment to accountability, education, attention to detail, and heartfelt personal service. I’m excited to continue raising the bar in the real estate industry alongside my Exit Realty agents.
