homes: The THRILLS & CHILLS of RELOCATING...Local LAKE ANNA REALTOR® Needed - 07/22/13 06:54 AM
The thrills and chills of relocating...local Lake Anna REALTOR® needed. To truly understand what is involved means you've done it yourself. Unless you have picked yourself up and moved away from all that you know...and everyone that knows you, it is hard to understand the impact relocating can have.

Is Lake Anna's real estate market hot yet?  Depends on who you ask so what I'll try to do is give you a picture of what it looks like at the moment.

homes: Who Would Have Known I'd Love Real Estate this Much - 04/21/13 09:05 AM
Who would have known that I'd love real estate this much. I certainly did not! Yes I knew I would find it interesing but little did I know that it would be so much more.  For far longer than I like to remember friends had suggested to me that I think about getting into real estate.  Well, I had thought about it.  Many times but I always felt that it would have too much of a negative impact on my family.  Now I'm talking back in the seventies and early eighties.  Not quite the dark ages but that was quite a … (2 comments)

homes: Living is Good in The Waters at Lake Anna - 05/02/12 06:45 AM
Living is good in The Waters at Lake Anna.  Located on the private side of Lake Anna, The Waters as it is commonly referred to, is the first subdivision at the lake to have a community pool and club house.  These amenities, along with the tennis courts, walking trails, and soccer field, make this a very popular spot for buyers.
The entrance to The Waters is on Kentucky Springs Road (Route 652) and is recognizable by its white rail fence and signage.   With land encompassing both sides of Kentucky Springs Road, The Waters is one of the largest subdivisions on Lake … (2 comments)

homes: Fredericksburg, VA Has the Beatuy and Charm of a Small American Town - 01/07/12 03:20 PM
Fredericksburg, VA has the beauty and charm of a small American town.  One of the reasons is that it is an old town filled with homes that look as though they should be on postcards or calendars.  Fredericksburg's history is long and filled with interesting events.   When you stroll up and down some of the street within this small town you can see sites that have been seen by generation after generation of residents. 

When I think of small towns along the east coast this is part of the vision that I conjour up.  Fredericksburg fits the bill perfectly.  It … (3 comments)

homes: Are Your Plans for a Home at Lake Anna on Hold for the Holidays? - 12/20/10 03:40 PM
Are Your Plans for a Home at Lake Anna on Hold for the Holidays?  With all the shopping and preparations involved in getting ready for Christmas and New Years there's little time to think of other things.  Even things that are as exciting as a new home at Lake Anna.
Once the holidays are behind us though, the timing will be right for the search to move forward.  Some buyers think that they'll wait until May or June to begin looking.  However, the earlier you start the better off you will be.  Many begin their search in the January-February time frame … (2 comments)

homes: Lake Anna Waterfront Homes Sold in 2008 vs. 2007 - 01/24/09 07:32 AM
2008 - During the past year we saw a slow down in the real estate market across the board.  There were 50 Lake Anna waterfront homes sold between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2008.
The least expensive home was located at 200 Lakeview in Aspen Hill Subdivision.  This home was initially priced at $444,900.  Then it was reduced to $424,900 and finally to $174,900.  It sold after 356 days on the market for $179,900.  The remarks in the listing state that the home was priced according to the apparent condition and was being sold as is.  Buyers were advised … (6 comments)

Below are the waterfront homes that are currently under contract or settled between May 1, 2008 - June 30, 2008.

If you happen to see one of the houses that you had been considering, do not give up hope.  We have a large inventory of waterfront homes and you still have an … (4 comments)

homes: Are You Talking Yourself Right Out of Real Estate? - 06/19/08 10:34 AM
What do you do when you receive a call from a potential client and they ask you how the real estate market is? 
Recently I had such a call from a lot owner here at Lake Anna.  I told him the truth.* 
I told him few lots are selling especially non-waterfront, what we call access lots.  (We are selling a good number of homes on access lots.)  We have a very large inventory of access lots and the prices have come down to the point that he would probably be lucky to sell for $xx,xxx even though his lot has an assigned boat slip.  … (14 comments)
