When you are walking down a sidewalk do you ever wonder who else has walked there?
Below is a photo of a sidewalk I took at the University of Virginia. These walkways were designed by Thomas Jefferson and built by his architects. There have been literally millions of feet on these walkways and many famous people.
Jefferson most likely and even people like Edgar Allen Poe (who attended the University)...

There has been a change to our MLS data at CAAR (Charlottesville Association of REALTORS) and I for one think it is a good idea.
Many agents where "duplicating" listings in our MLS to try to get better exposure. The integrity of our data was jeopardized as we may see a large for listed for $3,000,000 - $5,000,000 entered into our MLS as a "Farm" and again as a "Residential".
Below is the announcment from our local association, as as they are most of the time, CAAR is right on the money!
Property Type "Farm" Removed from Residential Category
(Effective September 16, 2009) To help with data integrity and property searches, the property type "farm" has been removed from the Residential category. Many properties were listed twice in the same category by manipulating address data, which skews inventory and statistics. Members were also concerned about the public missing searches for farm properties, even though farms showed up automatically in Residential searches unless specifically excluded.
I for one want to see accurate data and this is a big step in the right direction.
With a "NEW" Custom designed kitchen by a culinary expert, 7 added windows and skylights, this spectacular home on over 4 acres is a must see.
The home presents such details as heated concrete flooring, multi-level tray ceilings with stained oak trim, and corner windows with 180 degree views. Kitchen with Miele "Master Chef" cooktop and appliances.
The details in this home make it a true work-of-art.
Schools – It may sound vague when an agent talks about schools but Buyer and Listing agents can not "steer" a client to or from a school.
Crime – I hear it all the time, how is the crime in this area. Again an agent will be vague and refer you to a website or the police dept.
Race and Religion - Who lives in this neighborhood. This is a biggie. Think about this for a minute, agents can not give you a cross reference of nationalities or religion in an area. We can not even tell you if there are a lot of kids in a neighborhood. We will say something like "well, when we drive around, let's see if there are play-sets and bicycles".
Sex-offenders/Megan's Law – We actually write this one into our contracts, giving you a place to look for this information, but as an agent, we can not do this for you.

Ivy Virginia is located just West of Charlottesville at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. If you are looking in our area, you owe it to yourself to check out this area. I live in this area just around the corner from the birthplace of the explorer Meriwether Lewis of Lewis and Clark.
