Today's blog is a success story about a first time buyer who purchased a town home in the Lake Ridge Virginia area with my assistance back in 2011. The home the buyer fell in love with had been sitting on the  market unsold for months. The funny thing was it was a water view townhouse overlooking the Occoquan Reservoir and it was an end unit. That is a rare find, however many buyers stared clear of short sale homes if they needed to be moved right away. My clients were first time buyers in a rental, and time was on their side. They were more than happy to wait for the bank to approve the sellers short sale request. The seller accepted their offer and it took the sellers bank two months to approve the sale! The purchaser closed in January 2011. The final sales price was $259,900. Success...

Westridge has had good sales so far this year. That said resale inventory is increasing as we head into the summer months. So far twenty three homes have SOLD and Settled, five homeowners have completed all the required inspections to sell and are heading to settlement and two homeowners just received offers on their homes.. More good news. Westridge sales are a big stronger than 2013. By this time last year only 20 homes were Under Contract or SOLD. However by the end of the year 50 homes listed and sold in 2013. The big difference is in 2013 the market time to list and sell your home was less than 30 days. That has changed as inventory increases. NOTE:Patty and I found  the buyer to the home on 4111 Trevor Lane off Darnley Road  (technically on a Crestridge Lot) and that home is now u...

For those of you who live in The Vinings in Lake Ridge Virginia you know the gem of a community you live in. It's a a quiet peaceful respite off the beaten path of Old Bridge Road in Lake Ridge Virginia. This is one of the best kept secrets in Lake Ridge Virginia for those who are not interested in the hassle of exterior maintenance.  There are only 145 homeowners and renters  who are lucky enough to call this gorgeous neighborhood home. The units were built  by Carr Builders over twenty years ago yet today the community looks prettier than it did when I purchased one of the units when it was only a few years old. The reason is the grounds. The landscape is lush and green and the condo association is healthy and vibrant and the buildings are in very good repair.     It is amazing what a...
