These days almost everyone in Europe is watching the European Soccer Cup or Football as it is called. As a disclosure my team is Germany and I was very disappointed with Thursdays lost against Croatia. But what does Euro 2008 and the real estate have in common? Like in sports  things don't always happen the way you are expecting them to turn out when it comes to buying or selling a house. In the example of the German team, they were amongst the favorites to win, now they have to worry about even making it into the next round. Or who would have thought the World champions Italy are in trouble so early on in the competition and what about France, they are already out. Anyway my point things don't always happen exactly the way one would expect them to happen. To get back to the real estate...

Woodbridge Area Couple Scores Great Return!   I love when good things happen to nice people. A few weeks back one of my past clients called me and asked if I could help her good friends Angie and Alan find a house. It turns Angie and Alan had been renting for decades, and they had been reading all the reports about how the real estate market was really coming down. They were not willing to consider a townhome since they had a growing family. If they couldn't afford a bigger home than the one they were currently renting, they would just continue to rent. In years past that would have been a tall order, however in todays real estate climate there is a golden opportunity for all buyers who want to buy. What most don't realize is that prices have dropped down so low, the affordabilty factor...

Which Do You Prefer? An Home Owners Association or No Home Owners Association? Living in Lake Ridge Virginia, has so many benefits we all take for granted. Gorgeous well kept grounds, five outdoor pools for summer fun, community schools and shopping. It's well planned from beginning to end and it's a great mixed or Single Family Homes, Townhomes and Condo's. But....oh some say..." all those HOA Rules!" Well, I've lived in Lake Ridge for over 25 years, and  I truly believe that having the Lake Ridge Parks & Recreation  Association  helps sustain Real Estate Values for all of us. Here's why: Recently a frustrated owner who lived in Dale City, called they had been on the market for several months with two different Realtors. However the home they were trying to sell, had no traffic and no ...

When most people think of special assessments for condo owners they think major common area improvements.  In the Northern Virginia area condo owners often see them when it is time to repair the balconies, upgrade the amenities or redo the lobbies but in today's real estate market we also see special assessments for another reason. Delinquencies and foreclosures are sapping associations of much needed income to keep current on the everyday bills.  A few years ago condos in Arlington and Alexandria were flying off the market faster than they could be built.  Unfortunately among the buyers who were excited about a new home close to the metro there was a large group of investors out to make a few dollars with a quick flip.  When the market made its dramatic turn the first properties to be ...

It was one of those listing appointments you could tell was going to be a struggle when it came to price. I had already asked the seller what they thought their home's value was, and it was about 10% higher than my CMA was suggesting. They had a nice home, though, tastefully decorated with some value-added upgrades including an overdone but succulent master bathroom for that neighborhood and age/style of home. We started on the market at $419,900 about $20,000 higher than I would have liked but I had helped them see that a higher price than even that would be counterproductive. The wife was very initiated and did a lot of research online, and she often had suggestions for me which we talked about. Some I incorporated, some I didn't. She even took the initiative and printed some postcard...

I am sure many of the real estate professionals out there have been asked the same question over and over, by buyers and especially by sellers. When will the real estate market turn around? My answer to these buyers and sellers: Excellent question and there are many different expert opinions out there. I can try to quote some of these expert opinions but let's examine the facts for a moment. Over the past couple of weeks I have seen more and more short sales, pre-foreclosures come on the market in the Prince William area and especially in Woodbridge. With all these short sales currently coming on the market I don't think the situation will change any time soon. As most of you know only a small percentage of short sales out there go to closing, most of them foreclose and come on the mark...
