Hello! My name is Erica Gentile-Hussar and the Charlottesville area has had a very special place in my heart for almost two decades! As a JMU graduate who grew up in Northern Virginia, I moved to Charlottesville in 2002 and have never looked back!
My career started in retail during my Junior year at JMU. I went through an internship with GAP Inc. and fell in love. That is true on two accounts, I fell in love with the company, and I met my future husband while opening a store in Harrisonburg, Virginia! A career of 20+ years in retail sales and local media sales led me to take the step to become a REALTOR. I watched my brother-in-law help my husband and myself buy and sell a home and I was immediately drawn to it. This is one of the biggest decisions someone can make and getting to be a part of my client’s journey is an honor and one I do not take lightly.
I have a passion for taking care of my clients and will do everything I can to provide the best experience possible. The best part I would say though, is the friendships that you make along the way. It doesn’t stop at the closing table and that is what I find to be the most rewarding. I love what I do!
A few of my favorite things
Favorite movie
The Goonies, hands down!
A perfect Saturday
Kids sleep in and I can enjoy some coffee and quiet time with my thoughts. Maybe a little cleaning and straightening up before they wake and beg for a trip to Target or Starbucks!
Favorite hobby
Right now it is painting. I have taken on the task of painting my house top to bottom. I find it to be very therapeutic and truly enjoy it!
Favorite places to travel
I'll take any beach or Deep Creek Lake in Maryland. Give me water and I'm good to go!
