Meet the team

Shelley Hearp Cooper

Born and raised in Roanoke, Virginia, I am a proud alumna of Virginia Tech’s Pamplin College of Business. My husband, Taz, and I have been married for over 30 years, raised our three children in Roanoke and have spent our summers at Smith Mountain Lake for more than 25 years. My professional background began in the insurance and investment industry before transitioning into real estate. I launched my real estate career in 2008 through the purchase, ownership and management of rental properties, which sparked a passion for helping individuals and families navigate life transitions through real estate. Outside of work, I love, love, love being outdoors-whether spending time at the lake, taking in the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Roanoke Valley, or golfing with my husband, where we enjoy the scenery as much as the game itself, as we are awful. Real estate has become a family business. I work alongside one of my daughters, Abigail, at MKB, offering clients the advantage of a collaborative, two-for-one approach, while my son is a commercial real estate broker and my husband is involved in property management. Grounded in strong values, I am deeply committed to serving my clients with care, integrity, and professionalism. Each client and circumstance is unique, and I believe they deserve a personalized approach-never a one-size fits-all solution.

Abigail Cooper

Hi! My name is Abigail Cooper, and I am a hometown girl. Roanoke born and raised, I’ve got a big family and a big love for my hometown. There’s so much about this place to love – it’s large enough to have lots of wonderful local options, but small enough that you don’t have to worry about that big city hassle. Plus, we’ve got gorgeous mountains and sprawling lakes; what more could you ask for?! I’ve known for most of my life that I wanted to be involved in real estate in one way or another. Since I was born, I have been working in Property Management with my family. When I chose Southwest Virginia Tech for my college studies, I knew I’d focus on the Real Estate and Property Management programs. I graduated with a BS in both from the VT Pamplin College of Business and have made this industry my daily focus ever since! This business is a bear sometimes but it’s truly a fun challenge to keep all the plates spinning. But when I find some downtime, the biggest deciding factor of where I spend that time is whether my dogs can come with me. You’ll usually find me (us) on a hike, driving on the parkway, boating at the Lake, or enjoying Roanoke’s booming brewery scene. However, I will leave the gals at home for the promise of a famous Pineapple Martini at Frankie Rowland’s. So if you’re in the market, give me a shout and come say hi to Piper (rescue Beagle) and Roo (Boxer)! We’ve got you covered when it comes to real estate.
