Pros and Cons of Living in Short Pump, VA

Is Short Pump right for you?

Short Pump’s real estate offerings and value proposition can be a bit disappointing for our relocation clients. Many homes in the area were built in the late 1980s and 1990s. It’s common to find homes priced at over $500,000 that still have their original, dated kitchens and bathrooms. This means your money often doesn’t stretch as far in Short Pump as it might in other Richmond suburbs.
