Are you ready to learn what to do to begin garden-style condo comparison in the competitive Fairfax County real estate market?
There is no such thing as the “dream” time to purchase a home.
If you find the best choice of abode today, don’t risk losing it because you’re trying to guess where the housing market in 22315 is going. Elements like market price and interest rate usually don’t fluctuate quickly enough to make a meaningful difference in an individual garden-style condo’s price in Alexandria. Much more important than macro-economic factors, is the actual real estate involved! Every single property in Alexandria is distinct. So, a home for sale today, might not be available when the market changes.
Trust your instincts.
A bit of encouragement is helpful, but too many ideas from too many people can lead to analysis paralysis. Give the most weight to your own needs and wants.
Every home in Fairfax County, including 6523 Grange Ln #304 requires some sort of compromise.
There are many examples of compromises that buyers have to make every day. Consider a few of these possibilities. The commute is perfect, but the nearby shops and restaurants aren't what you hoped for.The roof is great, but the windows need to be replaced. Organize your priorities, so that we focus in on things that are most important to you.
You will never negotiate a super-deal in Alexandria, Virginia.
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.Fairfax County has some of the savviest home sellers in the country. They are well-coached and well-informed.
When you're buying a home, you're buying a neighborhood.
Don’t get completely enamored by the physical aspects of a home to the point that you forget about important issues such as:
- access to amenities,
- how close the neighborhood is to friends and family
- neighborhood pride of ownership
Make preparations before you hunt for homes.
Before you shop there are some tasks to take care of. Don’t wait until you’ve found a home to:
- list your priorities
- to get approved for a mortgage
- investigate insurance
- learn more about home inspections
