I keep a pretty close eye the sales each week but it was especially impactful for me to lay the data next to 2015 (which was a great year as well). Another set of data point to remind us how strong the market is now. So without further ado {insert drum room} ....Here is snap shot of 2016 Sales in the Fan District (for single family homes), as well as how 2016 stacked up to 2015:*only includes sales from CVRMLS  HIGHLIGHTS of 2016 FAN DISTRICT REAL ESTATE:- Average Sales Price INCREASED $46,000 / 8+%, in 20...

These rate cuts would have saved homeowners hundreds of dollars each year.The suspension of the rate cut is to start on January 27th. For most future borrows the rate will now remain at .85% rather than .60%. In Fairfax County the limit on an FHA mortgage is $636,150. In Henrico County the loan limit on an FHA mortgage is $535,900.If the planned reductions went to effect, borrowers who put down less than 5% on a $600,000. 30 year mortgage would have saved almost $1,500 a year.
