Farifax County, VA First Time Buyers Find the Home of Their Dreams

By
Real Estate Agent with Long and Foster Real Estate VA License # 0225089470

The journey for the Fairfax County first time buyers that bought this beauty started when they began their preliminary home search online.  At the time they were focused on the Gainesville area.  And that's when they found me.  After months of searching in Prince William, Loudoun and Fairfax Counties, they finally decided on Fairfax County.  Why?  A shorter commute. 

With a budget of up to $450,000, they were thrilled to find the home of their dreams in Chantilly, a party of Western Fairfax County.  The house was meticulously maintained and was not a foreclosure or short sale.  My buyers were able to negotiate a sales price well below their loan approval amount, and had more than half of their closing costs paid by the seller.  They now have a sun drenched family room, updated eat-in kitchen, a combined living and dining room with wood burning fireplace, three bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms and a finished basement.  And, just in time for spring, this family of first time buyers will enjoy their very own backyard. 

If you know someone that is looking for their dream home and weighing the pros and cons of Fairfax County over Loudoun or Prince William Counties, give me a call.  I'd be happy to help you explore the homes available in your price range to help you make the best decision for your family.

Seems like they are happy all around! It's a good thing they had you as their Northern Virginia Realtor and you helped them find the home of their dreams! Awesome Chris Ann!

Jackie:  One of the few transactions that settled on time.  One of the joys of working with "regular" sellers.

This is a cute house.  I bet your buyers were thrilled to get this house.  They certainly had a good agent.
