About Chorey & Associates Realty, Ltd.
Established in 1978, Chorey & Associates Realty, Ltd. has set the stage for excellence in Suffolk real estate. We have consistently been voted a winner in the "Best Real Estate Company" category for the Suffolk/Franklin/Isle of Wight area, as well as the "Locals Choice Winner" for Suffolk. This award attests to the company's reputation of hard work, professionalism, dedication, and complete honesty which continues to enable Chorey & Associates to bring buyers and sellers together time and time again.
In 1975 after earning his MBA, Billy Chorey decided to forego an opportunity in banking to try out real estate in his hometown of Suffolk, not knowing it would lead to his lifelong career. He enjoyed the real estate business so much that he started his own company three years later with a good friend and two part-time agents in a tiny retail shop near downtown Suffolk. After outgrowing that office space in just a couple of years, the company remodeled a former gas station located on the same street and remained there for two decades. When the former Life Savings Bank facility became available for sale in 1999, the company purchased the building and remodeled it to accommodate the growing staff and offer a private office for each full-time professional agent. This building remains the corporate location at 330 West Constance Road.
Chorey’s staff consists of seasoned professionals with over a century of combined real estate experience in Suffolk and the surrounding areas.
Since then, we have grown into a full-service real estate company that specializes in sales and home appraisals. From word-of-mouth referrals to repeat business, our clients enable Chorey & Associates Realty, Ltd. to be a leader in Suffolk real estate.
