While I was looking for a little information for a training class for my agents I ran across an informational brochure on the VAR Virginia Association of REALTOR® web site. If you are located in Virginia you should take a look at this flyer. It is on the home page today on the lower left side. http://www.varealtor.com/
The title is 10 Things You should know about today's Virginia real estate markets. It makes some really great point. I actually took the time to download it and emailed it to all of my agents. It is a great piece to add to their presentation folders.
Take a look and let me know what you think.
By the way the market here in Charlottesville is showing steady signs of improvement.

Hello all.
Sorry I have been away so long. I have acquired new responsibilities that started the first of the year, and this has kept me busy almost every waking hour.
I am now the Managing Broker for a 70 agent office here in Charlottesville, Virginia. So my time is now my own any longer. However, I am still taking care of my personal past clients.
Last Sunday I was called by a past client that I helped find a home in 2001. They are now relocating to Ohio and wanted me to list there home. Of course I was more than happy to do so. After doing my research and preparing a market analysis on their home I schedule an appoint ment to make the presentation the next day.
On Monday after going over the market information and my marketing plan for their home we completed the listing agreement. I encouraged them to be very realistic about their price and they took my advice.
I went straight back to the office and entered the new listing in our MLS, and Prue rushed everything on to our web site and sent emails out to local agents about the new property. Of course we also used Active Rain to get the word out.
By Wednesday we had an offer, and by Thursday evening it was ratified. WOW I couldn't believe it went so quick, but after talking with a few of my agents they to have noticed more activity in our local market. Homes starting to sell. However, all agree that those homes that are selling the owners are being very realistic about pricing their homes.
The buyers are still out there and the interest rates are still at an all time low. We just need to stop all the pity parties and get back to work spreading the word to our buyers and sellers about the local market. NOW IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY.
Just thought I would share my story, and hope that you will share your Spring Market Activity Report. Our Spring it seems is starting a little early.
Best Regards
