  • Just Sold: One Level Home in Regency for a Record Price
    Just Sold: One Level Home in Regency for a Record Price When we first met with the sellers of 5149 Faldo Drive, the comparable sales told us both, independently, that the most likely sales price for the home was $675,000. Mind you, we both lifted what the actual comparable sold price would be based on market conditions to get to that $675,000. Not exactly what the sellers wanted, but we agreed to be in touch if anything changed. It was when a three level home on Legacy listed for $895,000 and went under contract in a matter of four days Read More …

    Regency Single Family Home Under Contract in Three Days When it comes to the 2022 Prince William County Active Adult real estate market, it is safe to say that demand is out of control. The homes that don’t sell right away are ill prepared for market and/or overpriced. In a seller’s market, you can ask too much for your home.

  • St. Patrick’s Day Lunch at Eugene’s
    St. Patrick’s Day 2022 was a reason to celebrate. Our first listing in Regency had its photo shoot today. The sellers of 5149 Faldo did a fantastic job getting their Bayhill ready for the market.

What makes our joint marketing work so well is that we are different mindsets. We come at things from different perspectives, find the best of both and move forward. It is no different when it comes to food. While one of us ordered Read More …
  • Dominion Valley Villages Report: January-February 2022
    Dominion Valley Villages Report: January-February 2022 Despite the pink buds on trees starting to pop, we happened to have one of our Northern Virginia March snow events this past weekend.

I passed so many in my travels on Saturday and kept thinking, “I need to stop and get a picture of that.” Alas, the busy life of this Top Producing Western Prince William County Real Estate Agent did not make the limited window of time for that shot conducive to getting one.

    Enjoying a Night Out, Right in My Own Backyard After a busy but fun day with my buyers, exploring real estate all over Haymarket and Gainesville, it felt like cooking for my family was not happening that evening.
