belmont bay condos: Condo Documents You Really Need To Read Them - 12/21/12 05:10 PM
Along with loan documents condominium documents rank high among the paperwork buyers should read before closing on the purchase of a Northern Virginia condo. Since I sell a significant number of condos in Northern Virginia and the Belmont Bay neighborhood my phone often rings with new owners asking me questions about condo rules and regulations. Can we have a 50 pound dog in our condo? Can we install hardwood floors? Can we install a set of stairs into the "attic?" Can we park in a space closer to the door? And many more. All the answers to the questions are in

Over the last few years if you asked most Woodbridge VA Realtors® if it was a buyer's market they would say "yes." However as we head into 2012 buyer's may want to consider that our local market has shifted to a more balanced market. At the end of 2011 the inventory of new listings in the three zip codes that make up the Woodbridge area was at it's lowest level in a year.Overall in Northern Virginia, inventory as reported by Real Estate Business Intellegence, part of the local MLS, the inventory in the DC Metro area is at it's lowest point

belmont bay condos: Tax Records Hold Hidden Gems of Information-Check Them Before Listing Your Home - 11/29/11 10:45 AM
It's not always as simple as looking in the MLS and deciding what to list your Woobridge VA home for. There are always a number of sales in a neighborhood that happen behind closed doors without ever making it to the MLS. In one neighborhood where I have my ear to the ground and have assisted a few "For Sale By Owner" (FSBO) transactions I know what you see in the MLS is not always the full picture. In fact the most recent condo sale was actually a FSBO that sold for....hold on to your hats....$185,000 MORE than the last SOLD

A condominium lease cap will be written into the condominium documents and they are an enforceable rule regarding the number of rentals in the building at any point in time. Why would a condominium want a lease cap? To protect owners financial investment in the building and lenders look at the owner-investor ratios when deciding whether to approve your loan on a condominium.

belmont bay condos: Are You Prepared For An Emergency? - 03/22/11 07:26 AM
Yesterday when the fire alarm went off in my condo building I did what 99% of the other homeowners did. Opened my front door, looked up and down the hallway and then figured it's just the usual test of the fire system. Within a minute the alarm stopped but instead of silence a voice came over the system announcing "this is not a test, please evacuate the building, do not use the elevators, evacuate the building using the stairs, this is not a test, evacuate the building." With my heart racing I started looking around my condo wondering what I should

belmont bay condos: Taking Big Steps Toward The Future Along the Occoquan River in Prince William County VA - 10/08/10 08:36 PM
