Manassas Buyer Success on a Tight BudgetWhen first connected with this buyer-client in mid-March, the budget given for our house hunt (given from a lender he had qualified with) gave the buyer many options.  However, as our search got more serious and my buyer found a home or two he wanted to pursue, I began to question...well, more like interrogate, the buyer's choice of lender. Why would I interrogate an unknown lender?  Well, in a seller's market, the competition is fierce.  Buyers need to work with reputable lenders.  And from my interrogation of the buyer's choice of lender, I could tell he was not what I would consider reputable.  In fact, when digging deeper on the buyer's first choice of lender, I found that lender to be working in an area that could only be called fraudulent.  ...

Professional Real Estate Agent or Dream Crusher?Northern Virginia's suburbs are the most expensive places to buy a home, but they are certainly way up there on the list.  First time buyers, particularly in seller's markets, struggle to find an affordable, move in ready, place to call home.When you are on a limited budget, and want as much space as possible, you will find in my area of Bristow and Manassas, a lot of condos.  They are built as townhouses, but are condo ownership. Condo ownership means that the condo development pays for the insurance of the structure.  Therefore, investor ratios and delinquency rates are super important. If a condo starts to spiral down with delinquency rates, they may have trouble with entry level buyers qualifying for FHA or VA loans.  That opens the do...

My first appointment today was in Manassas Virginia. I went to the community of Blooms Mill.Check out this townhouse that we are getting ready to come on the market this weekend! This is the only END  UNIT for sale in the community.The home is located at 8150 Pond View Terrance, Manassas VA 20111.  It is at the end of the community and has a really nice view of the pond. I think I would be laying in bed a little longer daily watching the Canadian Geese land! If that didn't do the trick, maybe having a fireplace in your master bedroom may make you linger a little longer. This bedroom is HUGE, with a massive master bedroom closet and luxury bath! So if this blog post and photos peek your interest, then wait till you see the rest of the house!There  is a bedroom, full bath and rec room, ga...

  July 4th weekend the Twins Selling Real Estate were hired to sell a home in the Okenshaw Neighborhood.Fast forward forty eight days later the owner settled on this home transferring to the new homeowner and he received the full list price, no closing costs! Right now I want to talk about the Sold price. This home sold for $340,000. Far below the current market value of a two level Pulte home in the Okenshaw neighborhood. Those of the same model with three finished levels can fetch as much as $435,000. However this home had years of dust built up on every service, the windows were so dirty, the baths were beat up, used and abused. The wall in the family room and the ceiling of the family room had evidence of a leak from the bad repair of the bath above.  Drywall in the corner was left ...

Just Sold: Two Car Garage Manassas Townhouse for $320,000There is so much focus on the world of first time home buyers and hardly anyone thinks to prepare a first time home seller for what the process of selling their first home will entail.  The story of selling this two car garage, three bedroom townhouse at 12002 Kemps Landing Circle in Manasss, VA is that of first time sellers.On March 6th (2016) I had the pleasure of interviewing with these first time home sellers.  They interviewed a referral from a friend and found two agents on Zillow by looking at online reviews for local agents.  I was one of the agents they found using Zillow.   My reviews on Zillow, and the number of homes I had recently sold, told them I was not a hobbyist, but that this was my career.  And all indications ...

 With a heat index of 105 degrees in Manassas this weekend, I'll bet a large majority of people spent the day inside enjoying the wonders of air conditioning or cooling off at the pool. Me? I decided to head out to the Manassas Battlefield to take in an infantry and artillery demonstration presented by Civil War reenactors commemorating the 155th Anniversary of The Battle of First Manassas, the first major battle of the American Civil War.    This soldier shot his musket a few times. It takes a minute to reload it before firing again. It's not hard to imagine how many people died while loading the next round!  This Parrott cannon packed a big punch and delivered a deafening boom!   This is typical of what would have been found in camp. I especially loved the tongue-in-cheek addition of ...

Smooth Sailing From Contract to Close on This Manassas Short SaleYes, you read that correctly.   From the moment I took this listing at 9625 Janet Rose Court, I knew it would be an easier Short Sale than some I deal with.  It wasn't the banks I saw on the mortgage statements, which were Ocwen and SLS.  Nope.  Ocwen can be brutal and SLS has some bad online feedback about their Short Sales.  I disregard that stuff because bad feedback is so easy to give.  Positive feedback, not so much.   What made me think this was going to be easier than most was that my Seller had already gotten his Request for Mortgage Assistance and supporting financial documents to the banks.  On April 21st (2016) this four bedroom single home in Manassas listed for $425,000.  Surprisingly, we had three offers with...

Open Saturday 5/14/16:  2 Car Garage Townhouse Just Outside of BristowHaving a hard time finding the right Bristow townhouse in your home search?  There's not a lot of inventory out there for Bristow townhouse buyers at the moment.This particular three bedroom, two car garage townhouse is just over the Bristow line in the Manassas community known as Independene and is located at 12002 Kemps Landing Circle.   It is often overlooked by Bristow home shoppers who want a similar location, but aren't searching in Manassas.  This community definitely feels like it's in Bristow, situated near the intersection of Wellington Road and Sudley Manor Drive.Currently priced at $325,000, it offers a lot for the money.  Three finished levels with at least a powder room on every floor.  That's an everyda...
