IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS, I'VE PRESENTED TWO CONTRACTS WHEREBY MY BUYERS WERE OUTBID ON FULL PRICE OFFERS. Lovettsville homes for sale and Purcellville homes for sale are wonderful locations for home buyers. Popular public schools, close to MARC Train and the Dulles Greenway, these Western Loudoun County homes for sale offer the best prices in 3-4 years.
How long has it been since that was happening? Quite some time. Further, I selected 4 homes to show another home buyer tomorrow and one of the listings has two contracts on it, a primary and a back-up.
What's causing the rush to buy?? Price, price, price! So far, the buyers with whom I'm working are all employed in Northern Virginia. What is interesting is that they are not hesitating to come to Loudoun County. For some time, many buyers wanted to stay closer in to DC for fear that the gasoline prices would again rise and they'd have an expensive commute. $2.00 a gallon gasoline appears to be acceptable.
One thing for sure, in conversations with my buyers, low interest rates and low home prices are working their magic to encourage home buyers to make the right decision. What are they looking for? Homes on 3 acres or more, with 4 bedrooms or more, 2-3 full baths, 2-3 car garage, priced from $400,000 to $600,000. We have a number of homes that meet those criteria. Many are vacant. Some are short sales so they may go off and back on the market. That often happens and I'll be watching.
Tomorrow I'm showing homes in the $400,000 to $550,000 price on 10 acres or more.
