homes for sale in alexandria: How Many Homes for Sale? Housing Inventory in Alexandria, Virginia
- 02/12/09 07:12 AM
Real estate, like any other market, is all about supply and demand.
SUPPLY: As of February 12th, there are 606 homes on the market in Alexandria, Virginia.
DEMAND: In the last 30 days, 77 homes sold in the City of Alexandria. January and early February are traditionally very slow times for the Northern Virginia real estate market. At this pace, there'd be a 7.9 month inventory of homes on the market. However, I expect that the warmer Spring days will usher in a somewhat heated up real estate market (this REALTOR can hope, can't he? -- watch the video!)

A dozen or so times a week, someone tells me "look out for a good deal for me," "I'm looking to get a great deal," "let me know if you see a deal."

To quote a local area diamond merchant, "Nobody pays retail anymore, why should you?"

homes for sale in alexandria: $3 Million Dollar House Cheaper than a Studio Condo? Absurdity of Price per Square Foot
- 06/13/08 09:25 AM
Does size matter?
Pull out your rulers, your tape measures, your sonic measurement devices and start doing some calculations.
When buying a home (or pricing your home for sale), the #1 criteria, as most everyone knows, is LOCATION. There's no dispute about that. What's next? How about size, condition, age, and amenities.
How much does size really matter?
Here's an example taken to the extreme:
There are two homes currently on the market in Old Town Alexandria -- one is a $3 million plus home with over 8,882 square feet of finished living space; the other, a studio condo priced at … (14 comments)

homes for sale in alexandria: So...Where do You Sell Homes?
- 04/14/08 01:09 PM
When you choose a REALTOR to help you buy or sell a home, the most important criteria is finding someone with the necessary education, marketing expertise, and negotiating skills to help represent you in the best manner possible. You also want someone whose personality jives with your own. Are you analytical and just want to see the numbers? Do you get emotional and sentimental about your home? How's your sense of humor?
