Gertrude H. Taylor is a native of Hopewell, Virginia. She matriculated through the Hopewell Public
School System then attended St. Paul\342\200\231s 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\342\200\231s 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\342\200\231s 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!
