Rene Reiner

Since passing my real estate exam in 2008, I've been intrigued with matching my customers with their best possible real estate investments. After first having found Roanoke as an Exchange Student to William Byrd from Zurich, Switzerland, I've lived in this beautiful Valley for over 28 years. An extensive background in Marketing and Management combined with my Wake Forest MBA provides the strong foundation that has allowed me to help hundreds of clients with what is in most circumstances their biggest investment decision. I sincerely enjoy sharing my love for the Roanoke Valley and Smith Mountain Lake together with my expertise from decades of calling this valley my home. As an active Broker I still enjoy working with select Buyers and Sellers but also mentor our Agents to allow them to achieve success in this ever changing industry. At Reiner Realty we pride ourselves to always have the clients' best interests in mind as well as to represent an outstanding product through offering value-added sales packages for our sellers and matching wish lists to realities for my buyers. We work as consultants and not salespeople to help educate our clients in their quests for the perfect home and their highest possible return on the money during their selling process.
