According to a new CNBC study, Virginia is the top place for business in 2019, and Northern Virginia is just the place to plant your company. This the fourth time in 13 years that Virginia has been named to the top spot, and why not?Amazon decided to place its second headquarters in Northern Virginia, Proctor and Gamble just built a huge manufacturing plant at the Virginia - West Virginia border, the FBI just built a new facility in Winchester, VA and the list goes on and on. The network of highways, inland ports and access to rail and waterways make Virginia a jewel for businesses. The CNBC study states that Virginia offers "the best workforce in the country." The study also revealed that nearly 38% of the population has at least a bachelor's degree, placing the state in the top ten mo...

Winchester-Frederick County, VA Real Estate Market Update - January-June 2019 The Winchester-Frederick County, VA real estate market continues to show signs of improvement through the first six months of 2019. The area has suffered from low real estate inventory for nearly two years, and though it is still low, it is showing signs of increasing. Low inventory creates a circular challenge for home buyers and sellers. Buyers can't buy because homes are not available. Because inventory is so low, would-be sellers have no place to move to. Therefore, they stay put and buyers can't buy. Until more homes come on the market, the cycle will continue, but it is slowly changing.Winchester-Frederick County, VA Real Estate Market Update: Market Inventory The current new units added to inventory in ...

Winchester-Frederick County, VA First Four Month's Home Sales 2019Winchester-Frederick County, VA home sales for the first four months of 2019 saw a large uptick from the same period in 2018. The number of properties sold in 2018 was 753, and that number increased by 20.3% in 2019 to 906. That's an incredible jump year to year. Even with lower than average inventory, home sales are climbing. The high volume of home sales in the first four months should challenge the old adage that homes sell better in the Spring. They do sell better in the Spring, but that may be because home sellers tend to flood the market with more homes in the Spring than in the colder months. Is it because real estate professionals tell sellers to wait for Spring to list, or is Spring really the beginning of the lo...

Home-buyers' Guide to the Home-Buying ProcessEvery home-buyer needs a home-buyers' guide to the home-buying process. Home-buying can be confusing, even for those who have bought in the past. There is a process, and if you follow the process, it can be easy, and you can actually have fun buying your next home.Home-buying process: Pick a RealtorThe first step in the home-buying process is to find a good Realtor, and let me emphasize this, find ONE Realtor. It is not unusual to have a home-buyer call our office to ask if we can show a property. The first thing I ask is, "Are you working with an agent?" Almost every time, the buyer will say, "No," and then he/she will tell me the appointment needs to be at a certain time because he/she has three showings prior to mine.If a buyer is looking ...

                      Red Fox Run, Winchester, VA - 2018 Real Estate Market ReviewRed Fox Run in Winchester, VA had a solid year in real estate for 2018. The Frederick County, VA real estate market saw an increase in homes sales by 1.8%. That seems low, but in comparison to the national average, it's an improvement.Nationwide, the number of home sales actually declined in 2018 -4.3%. Red Fox Run also saw a decline in the number of homes sold in 2018 from the previous year but in a micro-economics view, that can mean something, or it can mean nothing.The fact that fewer homes sold in Red Fox Run may simply mean that fewer people sold their homes on purpose. According to a Gallup survey, "one in four Americans move every 5 years." That number equates to about 11 moves in a lifetime. That'...

                  Overpricing your home can cost you more than a few dollars.Anytime a home is listed, the seller and the listing agent have a decision to make. What is the listing price? What does the market tell you about where it should list? There is an unfortunate tendency to look at the home you've lived in with rose-colored glasses. That's often where overpricing a home starts. The list price of a home has to be an unemotional decision. It is a market driven number, and no amount of memories will change that.The perils of overpricing your home: Wishful Thinking vs Wise ThinkingOverpricing your home normally starts out with a conversation that goes something like this:Agent: So, what is the price you have in mind for listing your home? Here are the comps that show where it should ...

As we approach the anniversary of September 11, 2001, I have to reflect a bit.  On that morning, I had just returned from the gym and turned on the TV.  The first tower had just been hit and there was a lot of confusion about what had just happened.  Reporters were just starting to broadcast, and there were more unknowns than knowns.I was telling my wife that it looked like a small plane had crashed into one of the twin towers and it was on fire.  Then I saw the second plane circling around to make impact.  Within seconds it hit the tower, and I followed that with the comment, "We're under attack."  As a Christian, I'm familiar with the voice of God, and instantly He said, "It's not over!"  That started a day of phone calls and prayer at our house.  Two of my good friends were commercia...

Do the important things first and your home will sell quickly. If you don't, it may sit and become stigmatized.Do the important things first and your home will sell quickly. If you decide to gamble with the listing, hoping to attract a clueless buyer, you may end up with a house that is stigmatized and invisible. One of the things I do when I take a listing is inspect the property from top to bottom. As a broker and a contractor, I have a good eye for things that keep properties on the market too long.I've been through enough home inspections to know what catches an inspector's eye and what doesn't. Beyond that, I've sold enough homes to know what catches a buyer's eye and what doesn't. If a seller lets regular maintenance go too long, it will show up in the showings and a home inspecti...
