Everything depends on: how the house shows in comparison to the others you saw during your house hunt how many homes are on the market. ( is a balanced market, sellers market or buyers market? how is the (1 comments)

homes for sale: Currently there are 16 Foreclosure Homes Active For Sale in the Lake Ridge Virginia Area. - 01/25/12 06:32 AM
Just yesterday, a Lake Ridge Virginia homeowner asked me when the real estate market was going to improve enough that he could sell. Turns out his perception of the real estate market was skewed a bit. He just assumed the local real estate market conditions were bad since he keeps seeing those yellow signs in the median strip on weekends advertising Lake Ridge Foreclosures. Imagine his surprise when I said, currently there are only 16 Foreclosures For Sale in all of the 22192 zip code area. Turns out, I uncovered that not only could he sell, he could sell for a profit.

I personally have found that many home buyers today, believe that "Bigger is Better" when they have a pre-approval in hand. Is it?
When you set out to purchase a home, you have your wants, needs and desires. It seems lately because of the low, low prices on homes in Prince William County Virginia, so many buyers are attracted to the "big house" . Even the first time buyers are looking at monster homes of four and five thousand square feet. My take on this is simple. It is your budget, you know what (5 comments)
