springfield: The Three "R's" What Would You Expect From A Schoolhouse? - 08/22/10 11:03 AM
RED This one room red schoolhouse was in use until 1939. RESPECTED The fact that it survived postwar expansion in the Springfield area is a story unto itself. It is only a stone's throw from the hustle and bustle of the Fairfax County Parkway. RESTORED It was purchased in 1950 by the Upper Pohick Community League - its' members restored it to its' original condition and continue to maintain it.

Sound lending guidelines for home purchases were ignored between 1999 and mid-2005 resulting in more than 1.25 million pre-foreclosure letters being sent to homeowners in 2007 - an increase of 79% over 2006. Lenders are now verifying the prospective borrower's employment, credit worthiness and requiring that the parties have enough residual cash to cover the costs associated with homeownership and other contingencies that may arise. Now that the traditional underwriting guidelines have been reestablished a lot of care and effort has to be taken to prepare for the home buying process. Keep the benefits of homeownership in mind when the … (25 comments)

springfield: 6 PRESIDENTS + 3 RECESSIONS + 1500 CLIENTS + TECHNOLOGY = EXPERTISE - 02/07/08 09:57 PM
If you want to become licensed to sell real estate in Virginia all you have to do is complete a 60 hour course and pass a test.. However, that doesn't teach you HOW to sell real estate. Some real estate firms have ongoing training programs to assist their new licensees, but many more do not. It takes time, continuing education and exposure to "real world situations". It only stands to reason the more transactions a real estate agent is involved with the greater exposure they will have had to "real world situations" Yes, my husband and I have sold real estate during the terms of 6 presidents and have weathered … (8 comments)
