charlottesville real estate: Have You Seen Nest Realty Charlottesville's New Market Reports?
- 12/22/10 01:52 AM
It's been about a month since we officially launched our interactive market reports. So far, the feedback has been great. Here's a recap of our philosophy and approach to these reports...

Along those lines, we get a lot of … (0 comments)

charlottesville real estate: Charlottesville Condominiums : 2009 Recap
- 01/28/10 03:08 PM
Of all of the real estate options in the Country, condominiums may have been hit the hardest over the last several years.

The firstCharlottesville condo conversion, Hessian Hills, sold like hotcakes and was completely sold out faster than any of us could blink. However, as others followed, the market began to slow and sales didn’t go nearly as well (see Barracks West condominiums). Obviously, Charlottesville condominium conversions have come to a grinding halt … (2 comments)
charlottesville real estate: 2009 Charlottesville Real Estate Market Statistics
- 01/19/10 01:35 PM

Therefore, we would expect home values and sales in the City to outperform other parts of Central Virginia. There are clearly pockets of Charlottesville that are outperforming other parts of Central Virginia. Actually, I could probably make the argument that a few pockets (Martha Jefferson Neighborhood, North Downtown, Lewis Mountain … (0 comments)
