Meet Dwight Morris
I have called northern Virginia home for more than 36 of my 72 years. If not a Virginia native, I am very much a Virginian. For the past 19 years, my mission has been to help people realize their dreams through the sale or purchase of real estate and to assist them as their goals change through the various stages in their lives.
Whether your immediate goal is the sale of a home you have outgrown, a home filled with treasured memories prior to retirement, an inherited property, or an investment property, I will strive to make you feel as though you are a member of a larger real estate “family.” On a scale of 1 to 10, I want your experience working with me to be a 20. Because my business is built on referrals, I want to serve you in such a way that you will be delighted enough to refer your friends and family to me for years to come.
Thinking of selling a townhome? You will receive the same treatment I would provide to someone selling a multi-million dollar estate. Not only will a professional photographer help me showcase the property, we will create a floorplan, a virtual tour, and a short video walk-through. Aerial photographs will be taken of the home and surrounding neighborhood to highlight any community amenities. This material will be wrapped into a dedicated website, and featured on all major real estate portals, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube so as to provide maximum exposure for your property.

Are you thinking about moving to Northern Virginia? If you're going through a divorce and wondering what happens to your home, you're not alone. I’ve put together this video to give you a clear picture of here’s what the court really looks at Northern Virginia when it comes to dividing the marital home during a divorce. Unlike some states with community property rules, Northern Virginia uses equitable distribution, which means the court divides marital property fairly—but not necessarily equally. This can be confusing because it’s not just about splitting things down the middle. In Northern Virginia, the court carefully considers a lot of different factors. These include each spouse’s contributions to the home, how long the marriage lasted, and the unique needs and circumstances of both parties. There are also potential tax consequences that could influence the outcome. One of the biggest points I emphasize is the difference between marital property and separate property—knowing which is which can change everything in the division process. When it comes to the marital home, there are several common paths the court might take: selling the house and splitting the proceeds, one spouse buying out the other’s share, or even agreeing to a deferred sale where the home is sold later. Whatever the case, this process can get complicated fast. That’s why I always recommend working with an experienced attorney who knows the ins and outs of Northern Virginia’s divorce laws. If you’re thinking about moving to Northern Virginia be sure to give me a call, shoot me a text, send me an email, or schedule a Zoom call.

Let’s talk about navigating probate in Virginia when a small business is involved.

In the video, I walk you through the key steps: from identifying how the business was set up, to reviewing the estate plan, and even evaluating whether the business should continue or be sold. I also cover the really important stuff, like checking out business documents, getting a professional valuation, and handling debts and taxes. And yeah, it can get messy. I talk about the common pitfalls—like not having a solid plan in place or family drama that flares up. That’s why I always recommend working with a pro when navigating probate in Virginia when a small business is involved.

Are you thinking about moving to Northern Virginia? Deciding whether to sell as-is or renovate your home during a divorce can feel overwhelming—especially when emotions are high and the clock is ticking. As a certified divorce specialist, I’ve helped many couples in Northern Virginia navigate this tough decision. Do you fix things up or just walk away and sell it as-is? I’ll walk you through the pros and cons of both options. Renovating might boost your sale price, but can you both agree on the budget, time, and effort it takes?

Whether you’re in Fairfax Virginia, Arlington Virginia, or Alexandria Virginia, this video is designed to give you real, no-fluff advice so you and your spouse can make a decision that feels right.

Are you thinking about moving to Northern Virginia? How To Protect Your Home From Medicaid Liens In Virginia is something every homeowner or soon-to-be homeowner in Virginia needs to know—especially if you’re planning for long-term care. I know this stuff can feel super overwhelming, but I’m here to break it down in a way that actually makes sense. If you or a loved one might need Medicaid to help with nursing home care down the line, you have to understand how Medicaid can place a lien on your home after death to recover costs. Your house is likely your biggest asset, and losing it to a Medicaid lien can be a heartbreaking and avoidable mistake. In this video, I’m sharing how to protect your home from Medicaid liens in Virginia by going over common strategies like gifting property, setting up a life estate, or putting your home in an irrevocable trust. But—these moves come with risks, especially if you don’t plan ahead. The 5-year look-back period is no joke, and one wrong move can cost you big time. I’ll also talk about avoiding these costly mistakes when it comes to things like long-term care insurance, the Virginia homestead exemption, and special rules that might protect a community spouse. This stuff is complicated, but with the right help, you can keep your home safe. Watch this before making any big decisions!
