The idea of downsizing has been on my mind for awhile since we are empty nesters ourselves. We live in a lovely fifty-year-old three level colonial in Mount Vernon, Virginia that has a half acre lot and rooms we never even enter. Does that Sound familiar? I help people buy and sell homes every day and yet the thought of doing it myself one more time seems daunting the older I get. We have had six homes within a 15-mile radius in thirty-three years of marriage. So we have moved every 5.5 years. Not until I just wrote this … (0 comments)

You are thinking about Buying or Selling real estate in the near future. You probably have your favorite APP to keep up with local trends and look at homes on the market all the time. You have seen hundreds if not thousands of homes. When it comes time to buy or sell statistics say on line buyers reach out to an agent when they are ready. Typically they will do business with the first one who returns their call. The question I want you to ask yourself is this..
As a Buyer Specialist here in Northern Virginia I am always looking for the best value for my buyers. I was out house hunting with a Relocating buyer and they asked "Where can I find a new home under $400,000 between Fort Belvoir and Quantico?" That is a tough question as buyers are getting caught pushing their price points up if they want a new home. Two years ago you could have purchased a new single family home for under $400,000 but no longer. The lowest base price of a new single family home is now $425,000 … (0 comments)

Are you dreaming of a home with a Main Level Owners Suite?

All owned homes that were 25+ years old and their owners suites were on the upper floor and they were ready to simplify life. Each had or knew someone who had suffered a medical issue that got them thinking "What if I can't climb stairs in the future?" With each set of buyers, the … (0 comments)
