VIADA Supporting Virginia's most successful Dealers since 1960. Of primary importance is our presence in Richmond.

Both regulators and legislators recognize VIADA as the voice of the independent dealers. As a result, we are advised and consulted before any measure affecting dealers is considered. The Association employs a lobbyist who works with our Legislative Committee which is made up of independent dealers throughout the state. The Association employs an Executive Director to execute policies set by the Board of Directors as well as direct the day-to-day activities. VIADA has 8 FT employees, all of whom are pleased to serve your needs.

Hello Fellow VIADA Members,

For years, the Norfolk Automotive Portfolio has provided specialized real estate solutions to Virginia's independent automotive community. Historically offered exclusively for lease, our portfolio remains 100% occupied.

For the first time, we are offering select, grandfathered automotive retail and/or service properties for individual sale—directly from ownership. The attached brochure provides details of these opportunities.

Whether your goal is to expand your footprint, eliminate lease uncertainty, or build long-term real estate equity, these properties provide a rare opportunity to acquire established zoned automotive locations.

As fellow VIADA members, we welcome the opportunity to discuss available locations, site specifications, and pricing before these hit the broader commercial market.

To review property details or discuss your footprint needs, feel free to contact me.

Thank you,

Jeff Mack

🚨 MVDB UPDATE: NEW Process to Notify the MVDB of Temporary Dealership Closings

We are pleased to announce new enhancements to the MVDB website to make it easier for dealers to notify the MVDB when you plan on closing your dealership for short periods of time.

The Motor Vehicle Dealer Board (MVDB) has launched a new resource to help dealerships quickly report temporary closures and access guidance related to operating status changes.

You can now visit our new Temporary Dealership Closings page here:
🔗 https://mvdb.virginia.gov/dealers/temporary-dealership-closings/

This page provides:

👉 Instructions on how to report a temporary closing
👉 Requirements for notifying MVDB
👉 Guidance on reopening
👉 Contact information for assistance
👉 We encourage all dealers to review this information and bookmark the MVDB website page for future reference.

This process REPLACES the MVDB 40 form. Beginning August 1st, 2026 the MVDB 40 form is discontinued.

We invite you to explore these new features and make them part of your regular workflow. Your feedback helps us continue improving the tools and resources available to you. If you have any questions or comments, please contact us through the Motor Vehicle Dealer Board website.

District 4 dealers: this dinner could put money back in your pocket.

Compliance changes. Missed profit opportunities. Cost-saving member benefits. The issues hitting your bottom line are on the table—and so is dinner.

Join VIADA on Monday, November 16 at 6 PM at Sedona Taphouse in Chantilly for straight talk with experienced dealers and practical information you can actually use.

No fluff. No generic presentation. Just the conversations that matter.

👉 RSVP to Stacey Wilkerson at [email protected].
