For the last couple of years, home buyers have benefitted from an affordable combination of lower home prices and lower interest rates. But if you've been on the fence about buying a home, or waiting for even better buying opportunities, now might be the time to see if buying today makes sense for your individual goals and needs. Even though the government's popular Home Buyer's Tax Credit expired on April, 30, 2010, this is still a good time to act, as home affordability is likely to get worse before getting better. Ever since the Federal Reserve's program to help lower home loan rates and stabilize the housing sector ended in March, 2010, after purchasing a reported $1.25 Trillion in Mortgage Backed Securities, the mortgage market has been very volatile. And despite fluctuations, rate...

LANSDOWNE Living in LEESBURG is Lovely...and it Makes Sense Too!‏ In my lifetime I've had the privledge to live in five major metropolitan areas.  But in my humblest of opinions none have had the physical appeal and opportunity to offer as Northern Virginia.  More specifically, I can't say enough about Lansdowne on the Potomac in Leesburg, VA.  And here's why. Aesthetic Beauty The prevalance of cherry blossoms that the Washington DC area is so well known for can't help but carry over to us, even though we're a mere half hour away.  Add prudent landscaping and well-planned surprises like a waterfall - and you have a serene place to live you'll be proud to invite friends, family and collegues to for years to come. Amenities a-Plenty From the convenience of the Potomac Club (pictured belo...

Potential buyers of short-sale homes might consider waiting until April 5th before making a formal offer.That's the date the federal government will begin offering lenders financial incentives to hasten the process. Under the new rules, banks will seek a BPO before the property is listed for sale and let the sellers know a minimum number they are willing to accept. If the sellers bring a buyer with a good offer, the lender must accept it within 10 days.Not all sellers are eligible for the program, dubbed the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA), but enough are that it is probably worth waiting.Source: The Wall Street Journal, June Fletcher (03/19/2010)   For a confidential consultation regarding the possibility of a short sale for your home, call or write today.  My commitmen...

Since last Fall, I've been spending a great deal of time in Loudoun County.  In my duties as a Buyer's Agent, I've helped two buyers get great deals on homes in two different Ashburn 55+ Active Adult Communities.  One moved to a condo development by K. Hovnanian and another found a great attached villa in Potomac Green.   And right now, I'm helping a buyer who has found a great townhouse in Leesburg.  That property should be going to settlement this week. My favorite find in Loudoun County is an emergency veterinary clinic in Leesburg.  I can't take credit for finding it.  I will have to give credit to my regular veterinarians at VCA Healthy PAWS in Haymarket.  After a bad experience with a local emergency vet, fairly close to my Bristow home, I was given the Leesburg emergency vet as a...

March is Red Cross month. Did you know that? The Red Cross operates locally, nationally and internationally... and when all else fails you, it's often the Red Cross that will come to your aid. Be sure to support them, so that when you need it, they can support you. You can find out how to support the Loudoun County Red Cross Chapter, as well as the National and Internation relief efforts in Haiti and around the globe, on their web site: http://loudounredcross.org/ In honor of Red Cross Month, the www.Facebook.com/LeesburgVa fan page has added the Leesburg blood drive locations this month on their Events page. Can you think of a simpler way to save 3 lives and get cookies? I can't. Make time to donate blood today!

The great author and speaker Og Mandino once said, "I will act now. I will act now. I will act now." This is great advice for prospective homebuyers over the next 45 days, as two key government programs that have kept home ownership more affordable than ever wind down to their completion. First, the Federal Reserve's Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) purchase program will come to an end on March 31, just two weeks away! Without this program home loan rates could have been at least 1.00% higher...and potentially even higher...over the last year. Throughout 2009, the Federal Reserve was the primary buyer for MBS, purchasing as much as 80% of the supply in a given month. When this program ends, a lack of willing buyers will likely cause MBS prices to drop and rates to rise as a result. The ...
