How To Prepare To Purchase A 2-bedroom Traditional-style Home

Julie Nesbitt Do you want to learn where to begin home comparisons in the competitive local real estate market? Photo of 6301 Edsall Rd #624 There is no such thing as the “dream” time to acquire a home. If 6301 Edsall Rd #624 is theright property in 22312 in Alexandria for you, don't take the chance of losing out because you’re trying to guess where the interest rates are going in Fairfax County. Factors like market price and interest rate usually don’t change fast enough to make a difference in an individual mid-rise condo’s price. A larger factor is the home itself. Every property is unique. So, a home for sale today, might not be available when the market changes. Photo of 6301 Edsall Rd #624 Don't poll the village for opinions. It’s natural to want reassurance for such a big decision, however too many ideas can actually frustrate and confuse you rather than help. Focus on the needs of the people who will actually be living in the home. Photo of 6301 Edsall Rd #624 Every home in Fairfax County requires some sort of compromise. There are many examples of compromises that buyers have to make every day. Consider a few of these possibilities. If it’s in the right location, the yard may be a bit smaller than you had hoped. You were searching for siding – fiber cement, stone Traditional homes and the price is less than $305,900 but you don't want 22312. I can help you sort out your priorities, so that we focus in on things that are most important to you. Photo of 6301 Edsall Rd #624 Don't expect negotiations to be a give-away. Just because a home has been sitting for a long time, doesn't mean that the seller is willing to negotiate. Sometimes it means just the opposite.We have a very efficient real estate market in Fairfax County and most homes will trade for about what they are worth. There are very few properties that sell for more or less than the appraised value. Photo of 6301 Edsall Rd #624 Remember your home is a part of a community. Don’t get completely enamored by the physical aspects of a property to the point that you forget about important issues such as:
  • parks
  • views
  • privacy
