haymarket homes for sale: A Note Of Appreciation For A Local Vendor
- 03/30/14 03:02 AM
Today I would like to give a note of appreciation for a local vendor. I always like to share about good experiences I have with Local Vendors in the Gainesville VA Homes For Sale area.

I phoned HomeSure of Virginia (our Home Warranty Company) who in turned notified All Star Appliance Service in Warrenton. In a nutshell, All Star Appliance gave us an appointment for the next business day, arrived on time and fixed the problem in about 30 minutes. I … (4 comments)

It's almost Spring, March 17, 2014, but you wouldn't know it by how Northern Virginia looks today.

haymarket homes for sale: Information About Paying Down Your Mortgage
- 03/03/14 01:12 AM
As a Real Estate Agent, I'm often asked Mortgage Questions. For example: "Can I pay off my Mortgage early?" "If I have two Mortgages, which one should I pay off first?" "How much of my payment is going toward paying down what I owe?" Actually, the list is unending. Most important, my first response when someone asks me Mortgage questions is always: "You need to talk with your Bank or perhaps your Loan Officer." Why? I am not a Mortgage Professional - I am a Realtor®! On the other hand, since I'm not a Mortgage Professional, let me direct you to a great … (7 comments)

I am anything but an expert when it comes to Clothes Dryers. I know that I use ours on a regular basis, can put the clothes in, turn the dryer on, dry them and take them out - even hanging them up and folding them!

Even more specific, how can I know it is NOT a Fire Hazard? I found out the answer to the above questions is simple: For me, … (6 comments)

haymarket homes for sale: A True Story About The Value Of A Home Inspection
- 02/05/14 07:30 AM
A while back, I had clients that put an offer on a home that turned into a Contract for their first house. They were excited to say the least. In fact, the word "Excited" is probably an understatement. In the weeks that preceded their contract, I had spoken with them about the need for a Home Inspection. I indicated that sometimes there are issues with a house the average person would simply never see or understand. Better to know about serious issues before the purchase than after you move in. My clients listened and asked for a Home Inspection & Contingency. The Inspector … (8 comments)
