Why Did I Choose To Buy A Home In Potomac Shores? In one word it was for the Lifestyle.

For the past few years, my husband and I along with … (0 comments)

This is such a typical question especially from folks relocating to Northern Virginia.

They said based on where they live now in Austin, Texas Luxury to them would an upscale custom home in a neighborhood that was built in the last five years with a large yard.

home buying: Relocating To or From Northern Virginia?
- 03/31/15 05:34 AM
A Realtor can be a great asset to Buyers and Sellers who will be relocating. How would you find a REALTOR if you were moving to another Town or State?
Would you look at homes on line and reach out to a listing agent of a home you like? Would you just arrive in town and pick one from an ad? Would you schedule a visit and go to Open Houses? As one of the biggest investments in your life it would be wise to get a Referral to a Professional that will match up to your Real Estate goals. A REALTOR who … (0 comments)
Today I want to talk to all the Military Veterans who for whatever reason are renting a home. Your VA Loan is your ticket to home ownership. Here in Northern Virginia where rents run about 30% higher than mortgages on the same home it has become a wise choice to buy when PCSing or living in to Northern Virginia area. Over the years many Military Veterans have purchased homes and then rented it out when they left the leave the area. Many have done very well on those rentals over the years. If you are going to be in the area 3 years or … (1 comments)

If you visited Potomac Shores community when it was new you may have wondered will this community really sell at these prices. When it was introduced the community was well received but for some buyers they were afraid to move forward with a purchase on the high side of prices in that area.
In May 2013 when it opened prices stated in the high 400's. Fast forward to Spring of 2015 and prices remain in the high 400's but now they have introduced new floor plans. The introduction of the new floor plans I'll bet are for … (0 comments)
home buying: Sorry the home is Under Contract!
- 02/26/15 04:06 AM
I am hearing myself say that more often this year! I feel so bad for one of my local buyers in Woodbridge Virginia. I met them at an OPEN House in December and at that time they were looking for a Single Family under $400,000 In the Lakeridge area of Woodbridge. At that time their wish list seemed very possible to find a home priced under $425,00 with updated kitchen and bathroooms and a two car garage.
Granite Counter Tops and Stainless Steel Appliances are on the Top of most buyers must have list today.
Every Buyer I meet has a price point in mind and a general area they would like to live. They even have a vision for the home they would love to find and yet some cannot really describe it buys they say "I will know it when I see it." As a Buyer Agent, I can tell you buyers have it great today compared to years ago. By the time you align yourself with a Buyer Specialist you typically have viewed hundreds if not thousands of homes online. Experience has taught me if I learn about where you … (0 comments)
home buying: Home Buying 101 when retiring from the Military
- 10/04/14 11:14 AM
Planning is Key if you are thinking of retiring and you want to buy or refinance a home. Just ask Ben Bernanake Yes even the man who was the head of the Federal Reserve until recently thinks lending may have been tightened a little to much! He recently let it slip in a speech he was doing that he himself could not refinance his house recently due to the tight lending guidelines. Why you might ask? In his case he was changing jobs and to make it even worse he became self employed. It does not matter that you have an awesome credit score and … (6 comments)
