Jennifer Wilks
REALTOR
Hi, I’m Jennifer Wilks, and I’m proud to call the Virginia Peninsula my lifelong home. I was born and raised in Yorktown, and from the start, I’ve loved everything that makes this area so special: the waterways, the historic sights, the tight-knit communities, our proximity to theme parks, and the endless opportunities to enjoy life on the coast. Because I’ve spent my life here, I don’t just know the market, I know the neighborhoods, the schools, the hidden gems, and the little details that make each community unique.
My real estate journey began in 2019, with a passion for helping others and a love for the place I call home. I believe buying or selling a home is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make, and my role is to make that journey as smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable as possible. I bring a mix of local expertise, strong negotiation skills, and a genuine dedication to my clients’ goals. Whether you’re buying your very first home, looking for more space, or downsizing, I take the time to understand what matters most to you and build a plan that fits your needs.
Clients often describe me as trustworthy, easy to talk to, and a problem solver. I pride myself on not just being a Realtor, but also a trusted advisor who is available every step of the way, even after the keys are handed over. To me, real estate is about more than transactions; it’s about building lasting relationships, helping families start new chapters, and welcoming new neighbors to a community I deeply love.
When I’m not working with clients, you can usually find me spending time with my husband and two daughters, relaxing near the water, shopping, crafting, eating at small local restaurants, or enjoying all the activities that make Coastal Virginia such a wonderful place to live. I love sharing local tips with clients—whether it’s the best coffee shop, a quiet spot to have lunch, the best places to go boating, the best places to spend time as a family, or fun places to go out with friends.
What you can expect when working with me:
•Personalized service tailored to your unique goals
•A deep understanding of the Peninsula market
•Honest advice, clear communication, and strong advocacy on your behalf
•A friendly, down-to-earth experience that keeps the stress low and the excitement high
I proudly serve: Yorktown, Newport News, Hampton, Williamsburg, and the Southside.
If you’re ready to buy or sell, or you are just starting to explore your options, I’d love to help you make your dreams a reality.
