Personal Profile

Gertrude H. Taylor is a native of Hopewell, Virginia. She matriculated through the Hopewell Public

School System then attended St. Paul's College where she earned her BA in Sociology. She continued

her education receiving a Childcare Certificate form John Tyler Community College utilizing her degree

to set up and direct the Ephesians Learning Center. Later, she expanded her studies to include Real

Estate Training through the Mosley Flint School of Real Estate and a Master of Education from Virginia

State University.

Gertrude was always passionate about education. When she was a child, she taught her first student to

read. She believes in educating people in all aspects of life and so have been able to help many families

in the Tri-City area change their lives and realize their dreams whether it was college, career or

becoming homeowners.

Gertrude has always been a diligent, committed worker. As a child, her first job was selling brown eggs

door to door. Who knew that this would prove to be training for her career aspirations, and life. She

was able to purchase her first house without using a realtor as well as, write her first contract on an

investment property.

Gertrude recalls a church leadership conference she attended where she received a spoken work over

her life that she would become a realtor. At that time, it did not mean anything; but she found herself

buying and enjoying having fun with real estate. That is when she enrolled into the Mosley Flint School

of Real Estate and became a licensed Realtor for the state of Virginia and place her licensure with

Century 21 C F Scott Inc. When C. F. Scott Inc. went out of business, she transferred her license to

Century 21 Colonial. Because Gertrude believes in giving back and sowing seeds, she has been able to

help several individuals become Realtors.

Because Gertrude is an avid educator, before she takes any clients out to look for a home, she makes

sure that they fully understand the process of buying a home, have them to complete a budget sheet to

see if they can afford a house and then she takes them out to see house. Gertrude always has her

client's best interest at heart. This strategy has proven to be a blessing for both Gertrude and clients

and has led to many people who thought they could not afford a home, becoming homeowners.

Educating the client and helping them to understand their finances has caused Gertrude's 22 years as a

Realtor to be all worth the while.

Gertrude Taylor is well known in the community, school districts and the faith-based community. One

of her loves, other than her grandbaby, is praise dancing; and she has made a decree to dance until she

is eighty. As of today, she continues to do just that!

    If it were not for her guidance and honestly caring while I was dealing with family health issues…… she stood by me and was my constant help all the way to the closing table. She was my angel on earth. Even when I wanted to give up she stood by me and when one door closed….. she found the door to the home that I now own…… which was more than I thought I could ever have had!!! Again words cannot express enough my gratitude to Gertrude. I'm a homeowner thanks to her patience.

    Century 21and Gertrude are the one stop shop for all your realty needs. Gertrude, was there for me from beginning to end. She is one phenomenal agent. I am going to recommend her to friends and family, she is a keeper....Thank you Gertrude. The day I contacted Gertrude, by recommendation of a family member. She stepped right into the process of getting me started on my new home purchase. I basically didn't have to do anything but show up when needed...it was such a great experience for me, thanks to Gertrude. Gertrude, is truly a professional, trustworthy, charismatic agent. She communicated with me throughout the whole process of my home buying process. She really put her knowledge and understanding out there for you..I don't think anything is a challenge for her. She really takes her job at heart..

    My husband and I worked with Mrs. Gertrude Taylor with the purchase of our very first home. Mrs. Taylor is just wonderful and a delight to work with! I simply cannot say enough about how positive our experience was with Mrs. Taylor. She was incredibly knowledgable, patient, easy to talk to, and genuinely interested in helping us find the right home. We always felt at ease with her and appreciated how she always made herself readily available and was very accommodating with our schedule. Mrs. Taylor went out of her way to assist us throughout the entire home buying process and never made us feel pressured to make a decision, that was very important to us as we were first-time home buyers and very unsure of what to do. If you work with Mrs. Gertrude Taylor I promise, you won't be disappointed.
