- 07/05/11 02:04 PM
Recently some clients of CJ Realty Group were trying to decide if buying a condo was in their future. As they were checking out various condominiums developments in Northern Virginia they quickly learned that the differences from building to building can be huge. We aren't talking about condo fees, something every buyer needs to consider when they are looking at their budget but instead they were focusing on construction. Many of the "garden" style low rise condos they looked at reminded them of their days in a college dorm. What they noticed the most was the noise! If they were looking … (8 comments)

- 05/30/11 07:52 AM
