Making The Necessary Arrangements To Find Your Perfect Townhouse

Stuart Nesbitt Are you ready to learn what to do to prepare for townhouse shopping in the competitive local real estate market? Photo of 6554 Gildar St There is no such thing as the “best” time to buy a townhouse. If you find the most compatible residence now, you don't want to miss 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 home’s price in Alexandria. A larger factor is the home itself! Every property is unique. So, opportunities missed today could be gone forever. Photo of 6554 Gildar St The important opinion is your opinion. It’s natural to want reassurance for such a big decision, but it's hard to hear you're own thoughts, if you're taking in advice from many people. Give the most weight to your own needs and wants as well as the needs and wants of others who will be living in (or paying for) the home. Photo of 6554 Gildar St There is no such thing as a perfect townhouse. There are many examples of compromises that buyers have to make every day. Consider a few of these possibilities. You were searching for brick, shingle, stone Traditional homes and the price is less than $337,250 but you don't want 22310.The association doesn't have enough amenities, but the association fee is low. Organize your needs and wants, and focus on those priorities that are required. Photo of 6554 Gildar St You can't negotiate a super-deal in Fairfax County, Virginia. If you pay too much, relax. I'll put an appraisal contingency in that will allow you to kick-out of the deal at no penalty if the home sales price is too high. Negotiation is definitely a part of the real estate process, but trying to “win” by getting an extra-low price or refusing to budge may cost you the home you love. Photo of 6554 Gildar St When you're buying a townhouse like 6554 Gildar St, you're also buying a neighborhood like Georgetown Woods. Don’t get so caught up in the physical aspects of the house itself that you forget about important issues such as:
  • how close the neighborhood is to friends and family
  • schools
  • access to public transportation
