For as long as I can remember, I've been passionate about supporting children and families.  That same heart for people is what guides me in real estate today!  I know that buying or selling a home isn't just a transaction -- it's a life moment that shapes your family's story.

Over the years, my own journey with homes has been full of experiences.  I've been a renter, I've purchased an existing home, I've rolled up my sleeves to renovate, and I've worked along side my family to build our home.  Each step taught me something new about what it really means to find the right fit - and I love sharing that perspective with the people I serve.

Rockingham County has always been home for me.  I grew up here and have raised 3 beautiful children with my husband.  This community means so much to me and I am honored to now help others put down roots, make memories, and find their own place to call home.

When you're ready to buy or sell, I'd love to walk alongside you and make the process as simple, smooth, and meaningful as possible.



Distinctions


Hi, my name is Paula Rakestraw. I am a proud daughter, wife and mom of three who has deep roots here in Rockingham County.  I grew up in this community, raised my children here and currently live on a sheep farm in Madison.

For years, I've dedicated myself to serving children and families -- as an advocate and as a member of the Rockingham County Board of Education.  Now, I'm excited to extend that same passion into real estate.  I understand that a home is more than four walls -- it's where life happens, families grow, and stories unfold.

As your neighbor and realtor, I'm here to help guide you through one of life's most meaningful journeys:  finding a home that fits your story.
