home buying information: Potomac Shores in Dumfries, Virginia 2019 Real Estate Update - 04/16/19 09:13 AM
Potomac Shores in Dumfries, Virginia is proving to be a top-rated home buyer destination as the spring market heats up in Prince William County, Virginia. Buyers are finding the builders are now quoting September/October deliveries which can be too late for those tied to the school schedule.

In fact if they can find main level living without the 55+ label or limitations they are even happier. Sadly in Fairfax County residents are very limited to their options for main level living options no matter their budget.
