      <title>How to Child-Proof Your Arlington VA Real Estate..</title>
      <description>&lt;strong&gt;How to Child-Proof Your Arlington VA Real Estate...&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;img title="Arlington VA real estate" class="alignleft" src="http://www.wpclipart.com/people/baby/baby_accessories/crib_large.png" height="152" alt="" width="180"&gt;So, you have a child... you're expecting a child... or you could be planning to have kids in the future.
With a new home comes a million potential safety hazards... especially if you have kids.
It's important to protect your children and your younger guests against the little things that could cause big injuries.
Here are three simple ways to child-proof your &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt; or prepare for younger guests:
1) Use soft guards on jagged edges. That wooden coffee table or glass desk doesn't feel too good when you run into it. For most small children, these items are right at head-level. Go to your local hardware store and purchase soft guards for all hard furniture.
2) Make sure your fire alarms are in working order. This should be a no-brainer--make sure to check your fire alarm monthly to protect your most precious asset--your family.
3) Keep cleaners out of arm's reach. All cleaning products and chemicals should be kept far away from youngsters. Lock them in a high cabinet and don't keep them in low-lying areas.

      <description>&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA Condominium Spotlight - Clarendon 1021&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;iframe scrolling="no" src="http://modules.idx.diversesolutions.com/modules/map_search/Module.aspx?MasterAccountID=13119&amp;amp;SearchSetupID=20&amp;amp;LinkID=273458&amp;amp;Width=550&amp;amp;Height=500&amp;amp;PropertyTypes=17" frameborder="0" height="240" width="320" style="overflow: hidden; width: 550px; height: 500px; border: 0px; margin: 4px;"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
What does the 1021 stand for in &lt;strong&gt;Clarendon 1021&lt;/strong&gt;?
No, the &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA condominium complex&lt;/strong&gt; does not boast 1,021 units. No, the building was not built in the year 1021.
This building is located at 1021 North Garfield Street in Arlington. That's where the 1021 comes from!
This &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA condominium complex&lt;/strong&gt; was built in 2005 and is a hotspot in the Clarendon neighborhood. &lt;strong&gt;Clarendon 1021&lt;/strong&gt; features more than 400 unique units and includes a rooftop pool, entertainment room, a media room and on-site management.
The &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA condominium complex&lt;/strong&gt; is located at the crossroads of some of Arlington's major roads, including Wilson Boulevard, Clarendon Boulevard and Washington Boulevard. But, that doesn't mean you even have to use these roads.
&lt;strong&gt;Clarendon 1021&lt;/strong&gt; is just two blocks from the Metro!
Schools serving &lt;strong&gt;Clarendon 1021&lt;/strong&gt; are Key Elementary School, Jefferson Middle School and Washington-Lee High School.
For a complete list of &lt;strong&gt;homes for sale and homes for rent in Clarendon 1021&lt;/strong&gt;, contact Aaron Seekford today!

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aaron Seekford Named Among "Best of Arlington" in 2011 - Top Real Estate Agents in Arlington VA - 2011&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It's been a great year here on the Mr. Arlington team.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To add to a stellar 2011, we just received an award from the United States Commerce Association, naming Aaron Seekford the &lt;strong&gt;best real estate agent in Arlington VA&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The award recognizes outstanding real estate agents throughout the country and Aaron is among them. The award also recognizes companies who have exceptional marketing initiatives and display success in reaching their local community and businesses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Aaron is among a select handful that has "enhanced the positive image of small business through service to [his] customers and community," according to the USCA.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Winners were determined by data gathered by the USCA and data from third parties.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2011 was great. Here's to a 2012 that bears the same successes!&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Why Pay Full Price For Arlington VA Real Estate?</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small;"&gt;Why Pay Full Price For Arlington VA Real Estate?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;"&gt;No one wants to pay more than its value regardless of the product. When you buy bananas for 49 cents a pound at one store and see them for 39 cents a pound at another store, it's not the ten cent difference as much as it is about overpaying.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;"&gt;It seems like the natural way to start the negotiation process is to offer less than the asking price for the &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt;. However, instead of the price, a buyer could negotiate condition, timing or terms. A few thousand dollars off the price may not make much difference in the monthly payments but it might make a big difference if it was negotiated in one of the other areas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;"&gt;An &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA real estate&lt;/strong&gt; buyer who only has enough available funds for down payment and closing costs will have to live in a home exactly the way it is for some time. They may not be able to make the changes that would really make it feel like home until they've saved more money.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;"&gt;Let's say you found an &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt; that needed $5,000 worth of improvements and the seller would lower the price by that amount. Financing those improvements with a separate bank loan will result in higher payments due to a higher interest rate and shorter term than your mortgage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;"&gt;Offering full price and asking the seller to make the improvements will result in lower monthly payments based on today's low mortgage rates and 30 year term. Another alternative is to negotiate with the seller to pay your closing costs so you'd have the cash to make the improvements.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium;"&gt;Paying full price may cause the seller to consider concessions regarding condition or terms which can be balanced to affect the value of the property. Buyers can and should negotiate to acquire the &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt; that meets their needs at the lowest possible cost of housing.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>The Bromptons at Ballston: Neighborhood Profile</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Bromptons at Ballston: Neighborhood Profile&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;Bromptons at Ballston&lt;/strong&gt; are a hot commodity in one of Arlington's most vibrant "villages."&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;31 unique residences make up the Bromptons at Ballston, all within a stone's throw of Ballston Metro. The townhomes that comprise the picturesque development are four levels and typically boast 3,000+ square feet of living space.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Amenities include patios/decks, multi-car garages, expansive kitchens, and much, much more. The community--which is one of a handful of "Bromptons" neighborhoods in Northern Virginia--is only one block from Ballston's active center.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Bromptons at Ballston&lt;/strong&gt; are highly sought after and rarely come on the market. Four bedrooms run in the $800,000 range, with five bedrooms running a bit more. Finding a rental can prove to be rather difficult.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nearby attractions include Ballston Commons Mall, a number of local eateries and boutique shops, and the Northern Virginia Community College-Arlington Center.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;For more information on the Bromptons at Ballston, contact Aaron Seekford, your &lt;a href="http://www.mrarlington.com" title="Arlington VA Realtor"&gt;Arlington VA Realtor&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;

      <title>Finding The Best Deal On An Arlington VA Home...</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height: 16px;"&gt;Finding The Best Deal On An Arlington VA Home...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;"&gt;Consumers are vigilant about buying opportunities like Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday along with sales, coupons and rebates. Some cautious buyers will even risk shopping early to find exactly what they want to waiting until the last moment for potentially lower prices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;"&gt;In retail, the hype is more obvious and the signs may be easier to read than that of the &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA housing market&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Certainly, volumes have been written about the record low mortgage rates and that &lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home prices&lt;/strong&gt; have adjusted considerably lower in the last four years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;"&gt;A more subtle indication of a home buying bargain is that statistics indicate that year-after-year, the average home prices fall in the fourth quarter. &amp;nbsp;The holidays beginning with Thanksgiving, winter weather and the distractions of gift purchases certainly contribute to lower home sales. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;"&gt;Regardless of what is causing the reduced volume, the smart buyer can take advantage of the end of the year to get their best possible deal on a home purchase.&amp;nbsp; The buyers willing to buck the trend could easily benefit from lower prices and less competition from other buyers.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Your Money Or A Mortgage Lender's Money To Pay For An Arlington VA Home?</title>
      <description>&lt;div style=""&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="Arlington VA Realtor" class="alignleft" src="http://blog.patzaby.com/image.axd?picture=2011%2f10%2fPicture2.png" height="150" alt="" width="117" style="border-color: initial; float: left;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your Money Or A Mortgage Lender's Money To Pay For An Arlington VA Home?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It takes money to buy an&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt;: yours or theirs. If you're not going to pay cash for an&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt;, you need to find out exactly what you can borrow and what it will cost before you start looking at homes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The mortgage process is not as clear cut a path as it was a few years ago. It is certainly more complex, takes longer and assumes that you're credit worthy. If you have less than stellar credit, a trusted&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA mortgage professional&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;can advise you how to improve your individual situation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are entitled to a free credit report from each of the three major credit bureaus each year. Go to&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/index.jsp"&gt;AnnualCreditReport.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;to get a copy of each from TransUnion, Experian and Equifax. Read the reports to determine if they're accurate. Surprisingly, about 90% of all reports have errors.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can try to correct them directly with the credit bureau, but a trusted&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA &amp;nbsp;mortgage professional&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;can help you with this process too. They have tools that are not available to individuals. Some errors may not be serious but others will keep a person from qualifying.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Housing affordability is at a near record height due to the incredibly low interest rates and low home prices. Some areas are experiencing absorption of the inventories which could impact price. If you're going to use "their" money to buy an&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt;, the first step is to talk to a trusted mortgage professional.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>How to Have A Mortgage Between Family and Friends in Arlington VA...</title>
      <description>&lt;div style=""&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="Arlington VA Realtor" class="alignleft" src="http://blog.patzaby.com/image.axd?picture=2011%2f10%2finterest+%26+dividends.png" height="141" alt="" width="206" style="border-color: initial; float: left;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to Have A Mortgage Between Family and Friends in Arlington VA...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It all seems perfectly reasonable: one person is not satisfied with what he can earn currently in the market and another wants to find the most attractive mortgage to purchase their&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt;. It can be a good match but the IRS has specific rules that govern the transaction.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA real estate loan&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;must be done in a business-like manner with a written note specifying the loan amount, interest rate, term and collateral. IRS requires that the mortgage be a recorded lien in order to allow the interest deduction.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sometimes, these friends and family situations have a less than normal interest rate on the mortgage. However, the rate charged in the note is regulated by the minimum&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.irs.gov/app/picklist/list/federalRates.html"&gt;applicable federal rate&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;which is published monthly by IRS according to current Treasury securities. For October 2011, the rate is 2.95% for terms over nine years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The seller must report the interest paid to them along with the name, address and Social Security number on schedule B when the buyer uses the property as their principal&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Arlington VA mortgage&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;between family and friends can be good for both parties. It may allow the borrower a slightly lower rate without the expenses of a traditional lender while giving the note holder a higher rate than they can earn in available investments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Your tax professional can guide the transaction whether you're a buyer or seller and your&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA Realtor&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;can help arrange to have the documents drawn and filed.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>3 Things To Do To Prepare For Owning An Arlington VA Home...</title>
      <description>&lt;div style=""&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3 Things To Do To Prepare For Owning An Arlington VA Home...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="Arlington VA Realtor" class="alignleft" src="http://www.freeclipartnow.com/d/30399-1/credit-card-image.jpg" height="87" alt="" width="129" style="border-color: initial; float: left;"&gt;If only you just had to sign on the dotted line.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While most real estate transactions are smooth, some can be a mess because a few simple precautions are not taken. Here are three simple steps you can take to prevent some common mishaps:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1)&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Make sure your credit is in good standing&lt;/strong&gt;. You may pay your credit card bill off every month, but that may not assure a perfect credit score. Request a copy of your credit history from the major agencies and make sure there aren't any errors. Some clients are shocked to see what's on their report.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2)&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Make a budget&lt;/strong&gt;. Owning a home can be cheaper than renting. But, there are also a lot of administrative costs that can add up. Sit down and make a budget of how much it will cost to carry a home and add that to your other budget(s). Then you will know just how much you can afford.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3)&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Find a qualified Arlington VA Realtor&lt;/strong&gt;. If you have any specific questions on&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Arlington VA homes&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;or home ownership, let me know today.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;

      <title>The Crystal City 1K Wine Walk Is Coming!</title>
      <description>&lt;div style=""&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Crystal City 1K Wine Walk Is Coming!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="Crystal City 1K Wine Walk" class="alignleft" src="http://static.freepik.com/free-photo/red-wine-glass-clip-art_419138.jpg" height="226" alt="" width="109" style="border-color: initial; float: left;"&gt;It is never too early to start thinking about wine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The annual&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Crystal City 1K Wine Walk&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;will be Saturday, January 14 and Sunday, January 15, 2012. Mark your calendars and start training!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well, there isn't a whole lot of training you have to do for a 1K walk, but it will be important to keep your palette clean and ready.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Crystal City 1K Wine Walk&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;features more than 30 different wines and beers, all of which attendees can try. Each walker receives 20 tasting tickets, in which they can enjoy beverages or a healthy assortment of cheese and snacks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This year, there will also be a&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;1K Beer Walk in Crystal City&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;on January 21 and 22. I'm guessing this will be equally as fun!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You an purchase tickets for both events at the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.washingtonwineacademy.org/" title="Crystal City 1K Wine Walk"&gt;Washington Wide Academy's Web site&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Three Reasons To Own Your Very Own Arlington VA Home&#8230;</title>

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; padding-top: 3px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 8px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;&lt;img title="Arlington VA real estate" class="alignleft" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-94lr-2CszNU/TZ4Wwk38BxI/AAAAAAAAA1s/e0KfVe6tGj8/s320/for_sale_house_generic_clip_art_36492251_large.jpg" height="180" alt="" width="180" style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; margin-top: 4px; margin-right: 24px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; display: inline; float: left; padding: 0px;"&gt;The list of reasons why you should own your own&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;Arlington VA home&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;is endless.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; padding-top: 3px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 8px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;More likely than not, you&amp;rsquo;ve already weighed the pros and cons of owning your own home. In addition to not having to pay your landlord&amp;rsquo;s rent and having a great investment, here are a few more reasons to buy&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;real estate in Arlington VA right&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;now:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; padding-top: 3px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 8px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;1)&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;Enjoy tax breaks.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;The deductions individuals and couples enjoy because they own their own home are huge! The IRS allows you to deduct portions of your property taxes, mortgage payments, and money spent on home upkeep.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; padding-top: 3px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 8px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;2)&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;Enjoy little oversight&lt;/strong&gt;. In many rental situations, you have little power to decorate your home how you want to and live exactly how you want to. When you own your own&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;Arlington VA real estate&lt;/strong&gt;, it&amp;rsquo;s yours to make your own!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; padding-top: 3px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 8px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;3)&lt;strong style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Enjoy saving money.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;The money you put into your home comes back to you! Plus you can deduct up to $500,000 (married couple), if you make a gain on the sale of your home.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; padding-top: 3px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 8px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;&lt;em style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;This community information courtesy of Aaron Seekford, your&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mrarlington.com/" title="Arlington VA Realtor" style="background-color: transparent; border-color: initial; vertical-align: baseline; color: #0a67bb; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"&gt;Arlington VA Realtor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;
