Our Story

One Team. One Mission. Your Success.

Johnson Realty Advisors is a full-service commercial real estate brokerage based in Fredericksburg, Virginia. We help investors, landlords, tenants, business owners, developers, and property owners navigate commercial real estate opportunities throughout Virginia.

Many commercial real estate firms operate as collections of individual brokers competing against one another for listings and commissions. Clients are often assigned to one broker and only benefit from that person's experience and network.

Johnson Realty Advisors takes a different approach. We operate as one team. Our brokers collaborate, share market intelligence, exchange ideas, and work together to solve problems. Every client benefits from the collective knowledge, relationships, and expertise of our entire organization.

Collaborative Team Approach

When you have a challenge, the entire team works toward a solution. You're not limited to one broker's network — you get all of ours.

Long-Term Relationships

Our clients aren't transaction numbers — they become part of the JRA family. Many continue working with us for years as trusted real estate partners.

Tailored to Every Client

Every property is different, every client is different. We invest time understanding your goals because real estate decisions have a lasting impact.

Our Philosophy

The ELF Philosophy

Everything we do is guided by three principles that define how we work and how our clients experience us.

E

Easy

Commercial real estate can be complicated — contracts, negotiations, financing, and due diligence can quickly become overwhelming. Our responsibility is to simplify the process. We provide clear communication, practical advice, and straightforward guidance so clients move forward with confidence.

L

Lucrative

Real estate decisions should create value. Whether helping a landlord lease vacant space, assisting an investor with an acquisition, or advising a property owner on a sale, our focus remains on maximizing opportunities and helping clients achieve strong financial outcomes.

F

Fun

Real estate should be enjoyable. While commercial transactions involve serious decisions, the process should also be rewarding. Strong relationships, positive experiences, and celebrating client successes are an important part of how we do business.

Our Mission

Deep Roots in a Growing Region

To provide exceptional commercial real estate guidance through local expertise, collaborative teamwork, and lasting relationships that help our clients achieve their business and investment goals.

The Fredericksburg corridor is one of Virginia's most dynamic commercial markets, connecting Northern Virginia and Richmond. JRA has been at the center of this market's growth for decades — with the relationships, data, and insight that only come from decades of exclusive focus on this region.

Client Tributes

What Our Clients Say

I originally used Johnson Realty Advisors in 1993 when I expanded my company's warehouse. When I sold the company in 2010, I retained them to assist me in acquiring an income producing real estate investment. They were able to find me a triple-net lease property with a higher than normal rate of return. They guided me through all aspects of the acquisition. They are now assisting me with the liquidation of the company real estate and advising me on a tax-deferred exchange.

James Branscome President, Freeman Beverage — Fredericksburg, VA

Michael's knowledge of the market, quick appreciation for our requirements, prompt research and service were very impressive. He also made us aware of an opportunity to apply for a business incentive through the City of Fredericksburg Economic Development Authority. That closed the deal! Corporate moves are never easy — usually traumatic. Michael helped smooth the wrinkles in this important first phase.

Jan Erkert Business Owner — Fredericksburg, VA

I have worked with Johnson Realty Advisors since 2003. They represented me in the acquisition of several commercial properties as well as in their sale. Their remarkable insight into the real estate market and their subsequent advice has benefited me significantly. Their diligence, acumen, and overall grasp of the real estate market is unparalleled.

Mohtasham Mobarakeh President & Owner, MRM LLC — McLean, VA

My partner and I chose Johnson Realty Advisors because of their track record and experience. They were able to locate a value-added asset that was not on the market, and represented us in the acquisition. After the purchase they were able to lease all 110,000 square feet in a very challenging market. I would highly recommend them to anyone with real estate needs in the Fredericksburg area.
