Lake Ridge VA Real Estate News

After  an exhausting house hunting trip last weekend,my relocating clients found one the really liked. It was Vacant and Ready for a new owner and it was gorgeous from top to bottom. The home was listed by Prudential, Simpson & Associates in Stafford Virginia and owned by Prudential Relocation. 

After much discussion," I helped my clients craft an offer on the property."  The process was remarkably fast. With the use of Docusign ,I submitted the offer for my clients early Thursday afternoon and by close of business we had a counter from the relocation company. Along with a complete copy of the home inspection report, the termite, the well and water tests, and the radon test! Everything was in order and deficiencies had been corrected prior to Prudential Relocation taking ownership.

So in less than 48 hours, I was able to call my wonderful clients and say "Congratulations You Got The House!" They will move in, in less than 30 days!

I wonder what today's  real estate world be like if Big Banks had systems in place similar to that of  relocation companies?

This week I have been working with a relocating family from North Carolina, and we have viewed homes priced from $450,000 up to $650,000. It's actually been a dream househunt. The reason is, so many of the homes now on the market in that price range are what we in the buisness refer to as "Regular Sale" or "Normal Seller" Homes.  These are homes that are loved and smell nice, and their is pride of ownership in every home.

These homes are always a joy to show. It's so nice to be back to somewhat a normal market here in Prince William County VA. It feels like it's been a long two years! That said,many of these homes are occupied and in most cases the sellers have been briefed that buyers will want to move  within thirty to fourty five days from contract. So don't be afraid when you see furniture in the photo's.Many of these owners have received transfers, or are getting ready to retire and are motivated to sell.

"Now let me warn you, there are some  real dogs out there as well! I mean dirty, filty, smelly, moldy, short sale and foreclousure offerings." It's shocking to see such stunning homes in such deplorable condtions. Some Banks just think they can put these homes on the market and they will sell. It is my opinion the lowest price is not always the best real estate purchase. For many homebuyers, it doesn't matter how low the price is, if they will need to totally refurbish the home for the next three to six months. Most people are not interested and prefer a move-in ready homes in good condition.
