Principal Profiles

Daniel R. O’Neill began his real estate career in 1979 as a specialist in Virginia farm and estate sales. Among his clients have been purchasers from every region of the United States and several countries overseas. A native of Albemarle County, he has participated in the sale of many of the most significant farm and estate properties in the state, including Mirador (Albemarle County), Grellen Farm (Orange County), Monte Vista Farm (Greene County), Four Acres (Charlottesville) and the site of the Syon Abbey Monastery adjacent to the Blue Ridge Parkway south of Roanoke.

In addition to his agency work, Mr. O'Neill has been a managing partner in commercial development projects that have brought more than 300,000 square feet of profitable retail, office and industrial space on-line in the Charlottesville area since 1985. In these projects he has been responsible for negotiating anchor tenant leases and permanent financing, including tax-exempt bond issues totaling more than $17 million.

Mr. O'Neill holds a B.A. from Harvard College and an M.A. from Yale University. He was a Visiting Scholar at St. Edmund's House, Cambridge University and a Hoyns Fellow in Creative Writing at the University of Virginia, where he has also taught as a lecturer in English. He lives with his wife and daughter in downtown Charlottesville near historic Court Square, and owns a small mountain-top farm in western Albemarle County.

Edward H. Brownfield, Jr. has been active in the real estate profession since 1971, when he was chosen by the Virginia Association of Realtors as Rookie Salesperson of the Year. In 1977 he founded his own Charlottesville company, which quickly grew into one of the largest residential real estate firms in the area. Mr. Brownfield managed this firm until 1983, when he sold his interest to a partner. He currently owns and operates Edward H. Brownfield, Inc., a commercial firm that sells and leases commercial property in Charlottesville and the central Virginia area.

Mr. Brownfield received his B.S. and MBA degrees from James Madison University. In addition, he holds the professional designations CRB, CRS, GRI and CCIM. As one of only a handful of CCIM's in Charlottesville, he brings to his practice a keen awareness of the investment criteria that must be considered in any real estate transaction. In addition to the training that led to the CCIM designation, he has completed extensive graduate-level education in real estate and finance.

A past president of the Charlottesville and Albemarle Board of Realtors, Mr. Brownfield has also served as a director of the Virginia Association of Realtors. He is a life-long resident of the Charlottesville area and has served on many civic and business boards.
