New homes in Loudoun County VA. You can be in your home in 5-6 months in Loudoun County VA.
NEW HOMES IN LOUDOUN COUNTY VA. HOMEFINDERS.COM WILL BE THERE TO HELP FROM SEARCH TO SETTLEMENT.
THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS. . varies from builder to builder, but the outline below is a good guide WE'LL BE THERE WITH YOU.
HOW LONG WILL MY NEW HOME TAKE TO BE BUILT??
Good news! If you're buying a new home from a national or large local builder, your new home should be delivered to you in about 5 1/2 to 6 months. If the builder has already obtained a building permit from Loudoun County, the process can be shortened to 4 1/2 to 5 months. Permitting in Loudoun County takes from 8-12 weeks (usually).
The construction time like is going to follow a well controlled schedule making sure that the builder is prepared with pre-ordered components and trades (foundation, electrical, plumging, etc.). Below is the general timeline from contract to settlement for new homes in Loudoun County.
Our experience is with K.Hovanian, Drees, Stanley Martin, Toll, NVHomes, Ryan Homes, Brookfield, Ryland, Del Webb,  Augustine, Quaker, SYG, Lennar, Richmond American, Centex, Beazer and more.
LOT SELECTION: Once you have toured the available home sites and made your selection, you may want to secure your lot selection for a few days, no more than a week, with a lot hold which will hold that lot for you. The lot is not always taken off market, but you'll a right of refusal if another buyer selects that lot and is ready to go to contract.
WRITING THE NEW HOME CONTRACT: The builder will write the contract of sale for your new home and it will outline the construction process including timelines. At this time or within a specified number of days, you'll want to make all of your selections for upgrades and options including:
Flooring Throughout
. . . . . (carpet levels and colors, hard wood finishes) vinyl levels and colors
Kitchen Appliances
Kitchen Counter Tops
Cabinet Selections
Basement Flooring if finished
Kitchen Upgrades
Bathroom Upgrades
Telephone and Elec. Outlet Placement
and More. . . . .
Selections must be made by a date certain so that the builder can coordinate the ordering and installation schedule.
BUILDING PERMIT: As soon as all of the features and upgrades have been selected and the floor plan and all structural changes and features incorporated into the plans, the builder will apply for a building permit. This process takes approximately 8-12 weeks. Add 4-8 weeks to build-out time if the permit takes more than 30 days.
DESIGN CENTER: You'll be scheduled for a meeting with the New Home Design Center to make the final selections for your new home. Once that is completed, the builder will order the components and your selections. This is an important time since changing your mind after this time will mean changing orders and there may be a fee.
PRE-CONSTRUCTION MEETING: Once the builder has the building permit from the county, they'll schedule a Pre-Construction Meeting with you. We'll be there with you since we have sold many new homes and are quite familiar with the process. The building superintendant will review the plans and specifications with you to verify the features of the home, the details of your selections, and verify your selections. 
FOUNDATION: Since the K.Hovanian homes will have a poured concrete foundation, the foundation walls and slab will need a week or so to "cure". Once that time has passed, construction on your home with go very fast. The framers will have the house framed out in no time.
PRE-DRYWALL MEETING: Once your home is framed out, the plumbing, electrical, windows, fireplace, etc. are in place, you'll be scheduled for a Pre-Drywall walk-through of your new home. At this time the builder will verify the accuracy of the location of electrical, plumbing rough-ins, windows, insulation, etc. to make sure it's save to "close in" or install the drywall. One the drywall is in the flooring will follow and the kitchen and baths will be finished.
PRE-SETTLEMENT MEETING: Once the house is significantly completed, you'll be scheduled for a Pre-Settlement meeting during which the builder will "demonstrate" the house to you, heating, cooling, appliances, etc. The builder will review the warranties and contact information for any post-settlement repairs needed.
Following settlement, the builder will return for scheduled walk-through inspections to make any minor repairs, nail pops, etc. Post settlement walk-through inspections vary by builders.

FREE AND CLEAR??? That won't fuel the economy of the United States.
Besides, most folks who are "free and clear" did not pay cash for that property.
The word that is so misleading when discussing the matter of upside home owners is "AFFORD".
It is meaningless. The operative word should be "QUALIFIED". When the loan officer/lender tells a prospective home buyer that they are QUALIFIED, that should have meaning.
Sadly, often it didn't.
If consumers are supposed to QUALIFY and APPROVE themselves, why do we have credit reports, loan applications, DTI ratios, underwriters, etc., etc.
None of the home buyers who defaulted QUALIFIED and APPROVED themselves. The mortgage industry performed that task and said, YOU QUALIFY FOR. . . . .
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Via Tni LeBlanc REALTOR® Santa Maria CA Homes Central Coast:
In Defense of the Short Sale Selling, Loan Mod Applying, Principal Reduction Requesting Public
 I just read the AR newsletter featured post entitled, “Rewards for being a debtor.. Punishment for those that are not,” and it really got me going this Sunday morning. Judi Barrett sets out her opinion as a free and clear homeowner who is troubled as she watches the government continue to offer program after program to try to solve the housing crisis. It is an interesting read but I disagree strongly that those who are being asked to wait in line for a government program are being “rewarded.” I know the fact that I live in California strongly affects my opinion in the matter -- the financial devastation here is just too great.
Interestingly, a few months ago, I was approached by a homeowner who felt similarly, and we had a great discussion. She was, what I would like to describe as the perfect hybrid, and thus a good illustration of the issues affecting us in California. Although she was not a cash buyer, she put $250,000 down on a $500,000 home. So, although she was a debtor, she clearly had the sensibilities of a cash buyer. And even with her large down payment, she was actually still underwater by $30,000 or $40,000 and she did not have the additional resources to sell or refinance her property. She also felt very strongly that people were being rewarded by the government for bad behavior. Of course she was going to continue to pay, she had invested so much with her down payment and all the payments she made toward her mortgage. However, a couple weeks after our conversation, she also lost her job due to the economic downturn. Personally, I hope that she is able to obtain some relief and save her home with a loan mod or complete a short sale and I don’t consider it a “reward.”
 Here’s my take on the housing crisis. The lenders, in essence, introduced a bunch of straw buyers into the real estate marketplace. Their argument for why they did it is essentially that the government made the incentives to make fraudulent loans so delicious that they just could not resist. See they love money so much, they just had to do it. In fact, the money got so good and it was so easy that they wanted to speed up the process of making money even more, so they started committing more fraud (robo-signing) to make the original fraud more profitable. Yes, my friends this is high level finance we are dealing with here -- mere mortals just wouldn’t understand this stuff.
Resulting scenarios in California and other “Sand States” work something like this hypothetical: New home development built in 2004 - 2006. 200 houses and maybe 25 of the buyers could really afford the prices they paid AND they made down payments. And then there were of course those unfortunate enough to believe the bank would not loan you the money if you really could not afford it. These folks believed in the integrity of “the system” -- how unfortunate! They were sold interest only loans and ARMs that they cannot refinance out of now and they MIGHT have been able to keep up with their home enough to still have their name on the deed. They can make payments for awhile but they really can’t afford the prices they paid-- that's probably about 75 people out of the 200. Now they all received appraisals supporting those prices based on sales of homes made to at least 100 people who clearly could not afford those homes at all. Those bogus buyers were in essence straw buyers that quickly lost their homes. So, almost six or seven years after those homes were built, about 125 of those homes have probably gone through some sort of process, short sale or foreclosure. And more than likely almost all of those 25 people who could afford those prices are still left among the 75 who are still struggling or are applying for a loan mod. Now if you paid $500,000 for a $250,000 house because you were defrauded and $250,000 is subsequently reduced from the principal, where is the reward? If a court were to pronounce that judgment, not many would say it was unjust.
Those 25 people who could afford the prices they paid of course still feel defrauded, as it will take 10 -12 years of payments to get their loan balances down to the home prices of today and they cannot refinance to today’s lower interest rates. So, of course, the temptation to walk away is high -- but only because it is cheaper and more expedient than trying to sue. In fact, lenders are now beginning to include language in their short sale approval letters requesting waivers over their very many legal issues on these files. And in some cases, they are paying home owners to do short sales in order to clean the slate. So they are, in essence, seeking settlements. So, in my view, government efforts to intervene with “programs” are efforts trying to create a mass settlement of these legal issues.  Something everyone can live with so we can all recover and move on. And, I do not envy those who are living in a home, cannot afford to sue, and are waiting around for the government to save them.
Many people I’m helping never envisioned being in the position of waiting on the government for a solution. Many are people who have never even had a derogatory on their credit report before these times. The solutions offered damage their credit, do nothing to address the investment they’ve lost, and in some cases they can be asked to pay taxes whether they get a loan mod, allow a foreclosure, or elect a short sale! Not to mention people who have lost jobs because this whole mess has affected the entire economy. Believe me, it takes a lot before people will walk away from a down payment and 6 or 7 years of payments, and that is what I see a lot of people doing in 2012. My phone has been ringing almost non stop for the past two months for short sale consults.
Rewards? Hardly. Are you going to benefit as a free and clear owner of property? Probably through a stabilized housing market and a better economy, but not directly, no. I do agree that the whole things stinks. However, saying that people who are applying for government assisted re-fi’s, loan mods with principal reductions, and short sales are being “rewarded” is not exactly accurate. They are, for the most part, good people trying to do the best they can in a bad situation.

WHEN NEGOTIATIONS FAIL, IT'S USUALLY MORE THAN PRICE!
If the parties are not too far apart, considering the asking price, there can be many reasons.
Perhaps the buyer isn't strong enough to overcome a less than list price.
Perhaps the seller is focusing on their net proceeds and not the market.
Perhaps the buyer is focused on "a deal".
Perhaps the home doesn't show as well as similarly priced properties.
It's usually more than just price.

For the sake of Negotiating..... Lessons of Feet Dragging - yes, even in a Buyer's Market.
So, I've experienced the Lessons of Feet Dragging, Negotiating and Dragging just for the sake of Negotiating. It is not fun to witness buyers wanting to haggle just for the sake of haggling.
 In the end, when the counter offer is not accepted and a new offer is introduced into the picture, it would be very disappointing when you lose the house, the house you've been talking about and the house you've been spending your time visualizing in.
So many times I wonder why buyers cant be serious? What could $2,000 mean in a $200K transaction or better yet, $2000 in a $500K transaction? Is it worth haggling?
ABSOLUTELY NOT! After evaluating the pros and cons of going back to the sellers for a tiny pricehaggle, in the grand scheme of things, it will not make a small pinch in the monthly payment,
WHY OH WHY DO YOU RISK ANOTHER OFFER COMING INTO THE PICTURE?
Do you know until it's signed and executed, you - the buyer is still vulnerable and that you have not secured anything yet.
And agents, don't come back to tell me how your clients will now pay the price they originally agreed on. It may be too late. The seller may have signed and executed the other offer. The seller may be upset about the haggle, the seller wants to deal with the other non-haggling buyer.
I've personally experienced 2 back-to-back negotiations where buyers lost because of Negotiation for the sake of Haggling.

DUE DILIGENCE or JUST PLAIN COMMON SENSE - DOES THE SELLER HAVE THE ABILITY TO CLOSE??
HOMEOWNERS MAY BE ABLE TO LIST AT A PRICE OVER MARKET!
HOMEOWNERS MAY BE ABLE TO GET A CONTRACT OF SALE AT A PRICE OVER MARKET!
BUT CAN THEY CLOSE????
LET'S JUST SEE WHAT WE CAN GET!! 99% of the time, the owner is going to get MARKET VALUE, no more.
The owner wants to sell,
The owner doesn't have to sell but wants to.
The onwer is upside down.
The list price will be significantly above market for the area.
WHAT IS THE LIKELIHOOD OF SELLING ABOVE MARKET WITH A BUYER WHO IS FINANCING THE PURCHASE??
The question now becomes, CAN THE OWNER SELL?? Does the owner have the financial resources to pay off the loan when the appraisal comes in a market value, which is is more than likely to do.
Does the owner have the resources $$$$$ to cover the difference between a CONTRACT PRICE and the amount the buyer's mortgage company is willing to finance????
DUE DILIGENCE IS NECESSARY. Just as due diligence is required for a listing agent to verify that a seller is not in default and just as we perform due diligence to verify a buyer's ability to buy, it is a good practice to verify a seller's ability to sell.
Inspired by Larry and Sheila in Long Island. "Price it right and it will sell". OR, WILL IT???
WHERE'S THE EQUITY??? Sometimes home owner/sellers simply do not understand the dynamics of what permits a Contract of Sale to close. One thing for sure, the lender must be paid off in full in a normal equity sale.
WHERE'S THE EQUITY???
