Spring has finally arrived! Many sellers have already entered the Spring Market while others eagerly await their turn.  While preparing for the market, sellers focus on what they can do to maximize their homes appeal. Some of the most common ideas are fresh paint, new carpet, new hardwoods, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. These are all great ideas that certainly increase the property’s appeal but one thing that sellers often overlook is the homes curb appeal! Your curb appeal is the buyer’s real first impression and remember… First impressions are everything! A well-landscaped yard can make a real difference when selling your home. In addition to regular lawn maintenance and fresh mulch in the Spring, seller’s are finding some of the principals they use to stage the...

  We have found ourselves wanting to break into the world of blogging for quite some time now but never took the leap.  As of yesterday, we have officially jumped in with both feet. We have a few objectives, which we are striving to accomplish with this blog.  Our main objective is sharing our knowledge of the real estate market with the public. We have lived in this community for over 12 years now and can confidently say we live and breathe Northern Virginia. Our family relocated here after a three-year assignment in France in 1999 and immediately embraced life in Great Falls. The feeling of community led myself, as well as my son Kevin, to our careers in Real Estate. As demonstrated by our first few posts, one of the staples of our blog will be monthly Market Reports on Great Falls an...

  What’s the Real Estate Market Like? People often ask this basic question without realizing that every market is different and markets can be as localized as your neighborhood. In my First blog post I am going to be discussing the Great Falls Real Estate Market (22066). 5 year low for listings: We only have 92 properties listed as active in all of 22066. This number is down from 111 from January of 2012. Contracts are being written! In January, 15 new contracts were accepted, this means that we have 6.13 months worth of inventory (# of listings/New Contracts), this is a number we like to see, 6 months of inventory means the Great Falls Market is in equilibrium.  Homes are Closing! 19 homes closed last month, this is up almost 19% from the 16 closings in January 2012. Median home price ...

This afternoon, Dick and I agreed to spend time cleaning up stuff like out disgusting refrigerator and the cat dust bunnies littering the floors.  But it didn't happen. The sky was a gorgeous blue, the weather was balmy, and the leaves were calling out - this might be the last fabulous photo opp before they were all on the ground.   So we forgot the kitchen and cat hair, grabbed the camera, hopped into the roadster and headed out for Great Falls, Virginia.  Great Falls State Park sits above the Potomac River at one of it's wildest parts.  The water swirls around the rocks and this time of year, it's fringed with fiery looking leaves. So here is what we found: This is a little creek that flows through the park. The little red dot to the left in the picture below is a crazy lunatic carryi...
