va: How's the market?

"How's the market?" As a REALTOR® in Williamsburg, Va, I hear that question often. My answer usually includes the phrase "Well, if I had a crystal ball..."; and I don't say that lightly. I, like most people have a vested interest in that question.

To shed light on the question, "How's the market?", I would like to share this recent quote from Lawrence Yun, the chief economist for the National Association of REALTORS®: "There … (4 comments)

I recently posted a blog, "What is my Williamsburg Va home worth?", In this blog I noted that when pricing a home it is vital that a REALTOR® understand the local real estate market and trends in order to price a house correctly.
This morning I read a blog by Endre Barath Jr about "reverse offers made by the seller". Endre describes a situation in which a seller makes an offer on his/her own property to get the negotiating started. He also notes that if a property is priced correctly in the first place then the reverse offer would … (0 comments)
The fact that the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico will affect tourism is a huge problem for businesses and individual property owners in resort communities along the Gulf of Mexico. The first thought that entered my mind when I heard about the massive problem was that the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico will affect tourism and property values in resort communities along the Gulf of Mexico.
A few questions came to my mind in regard to this dilemna:

The report stated that money was being made available from the state … (1 comments)
