Five StarsRecently I got contacted and asked for permission to have our Virginia real estate blog reviewed.  About a week later, an e-mail came announcing that the "blog review was live!"  It's always great to get recognition, but the really special thing is that the review writer read many of my posts and really captured the essence of the blog that I've been writing as an information resource for buyers and sellers in Northern Virginia for more than 3.5 years.

Not only did he give us a Five Star review, but some of his comments showed a deep appreciation for the personality and depth of our blog.

Here's the review from Lender411 in its entirety below.  You can see the review online at it source: Review of blog.brianblock.com.

Brian Block, Esq., is a Realtor who works in and around the Northern Virginia and Washington D.C. areas.  He operates a blog that provides local real estate news and information as well as advice and other resources to potential homebuyers.  Subjects range from financial predictions to the usability of the Washington D.C. metro system.  The blog also chronicles many of Brian's own ideas and thoughts on real estate and the economic situation at large.

He provides frequent real estate market updates that include graphs and other visual data, making the blog highly readable and easy to understand.  But the information is not simplistic.  Brian goes into great detail on most everything he covers, especially when it comes to numbers and economic analysis.

Brian writes with a unique and flavorful style.  It's honestly fun to read his posts.  He writes with wit and finds a way to keep his subject matter interesting.  In a recent post, he outlined the results of a seller failing to abide by the exact wording of a purchase contract, and how this failure resulted in yellowjacket nests all over a house when the buyer showed up.  That will catch your attention.

Here's an example of how he begins one of his recent posts.  "The First Law of Economists: For every economist, there exists an equal and opposite economist.  The Second Law of Economists: They're both wrong!"  This is good stuff!  Imagine getting your monthly real estate updates in a similar style.  Brian has a knack for making even the simplest subjects interesting.

If you're interested in learning about local real estate market conditions or have questions about homebuying in the Virginia-Washington D.C. area, Brian is far and away the guy to get advice from.  He's knowledgeable, qualified, and conveys a sense of credibility and trust.

We're impressed with Brian's blog.  Read it and learn over at blog.brianblock.com
