Lake Ridge Virginia Real Estate Help For Sellers and Buyers: October 2011

It's Good News Friday....Updates On Customers Erick and Company is Helping This Week!

Good Morning Everyone, it's all good news this week as we head into a beautiful fall weekend here in the Prince William County Virginia. After several days of sunshine ( Thank God!) it seems, lots of good things are happening. 

Single Family home under $300,000

 

We were able to share with our purchasers who are in the process of buying 5557 Reagon Ct, in Woodbridge Viginia with a VA Zero Down Loan, that the VA Appraisal came in just above value! It was one month ago the miltary transferee's from North Carolina contacted me after reading my  LakeRidgeVirginiaRealEstateNews blog. They told me they needed a large home with a big yard and plenty of parking.After several days of house hunting, I was able to help them find a home that was perfect for them.  The title of that blog was Relocating Military Family Finds Single Family Home Under $300,000 in Woodbridge Virginia -Read More 

 

Old Bridge Estate Townhouse Rental

 

We had great news for two families yesterday. We listed an Old Bridge Estates Townhouse here in Lake Ridge Virginia.  The  military family who placed an application were approved to rent for $1650.00 a month. The landlords, who have never ever dreamed they could buy a move-up home and rent out their Old Bridge Estate townhouse, were thrilled that the process went so quickly. I met the owners at an Open House I was hosting in Westridge back in March of this year. Over the next few months they looked at homes, placed offers and it was Erick Blackwelder who helped them secure a wining offer on a  "gorgeous home" off Hoadly Rd. They moved in a month ago and just love it! If you are thinking it might be time to explore whether you can me a move-up buyer and rent your current house, call me. Let me crunch the #s for you.

 

  

We were able to share with the buyers of a Listing we have Under Contract in Westridge Subdivision that the owners are finally HAFA Approved!  The sellers request for short sale approval is in the final stages with the bank. The bank has everything they need, now we wait for the Short Sale Approval LetterBuying or Selling a short sale can be a long process. This home went under contract back in  May 2011.

 

 

brick front Dale City VA home $200,000

We were able to call our Buyer Clients who are purchasing a HAP Short Sale Home at 13193 Mattapony Ct, Woodbridge Virginia that the seller has decided to repair the items noted on the home inspection. This does not happen very often when dealing with a short sale. However in this situation the owners have been transferred, that is the hardship, not financial distress. It's all good. That said...everyone is still waiting with baited breath for the appraisal results to come back. Stay tuned...

 

 

 

We have two sets of home buyers scheduled to house hunt this weekend. So far, each of the homes the prospective purchasers want to look at are still showing Active in the MLS System! That's always great news for any home buyer.
