Hello, summer! If you’ve lived in Arlington County for some time, you know that this equates to humidity galore, the periodic thunderstorm and – if you have a lawn – a once-a-week date with the mower.

In the real estate realm, it’s a sweltering time as well. Kids are out of school, providing the perfect time for families to explore local homes. Also, folks tend to take more time off, some of which is devoted to house-hunting. And, many folks are in a transitioning period, looking to settle in to a new residence before the new school year.

All of this equates to a competitive market and competitive pricing, benefitting you… the buyer. 

As of June 20, there are 243 detached homes, 59 townhouses and 344 apartments for sale throughout Arlington County. In total, 64 homes experienced a price reduction in the past week.

June has arrived… as if you couldn’t tell by our temperatures and humidity, both of which are creeping up there this week.

In addition to a few more beads of sweat on your forehead, June typically means a few things in the real estate realm as well. First and foremost, school is coming to a close for just about everyone. This means more time for families to house hunt and, on the flip side, more time for families to list their homes.

And naturally as we see this competitiveness play out on the local stage, I’ll be right here for you, helping you GET MORE out of your real estate transaction.

Whether you’re looking for a condo in the $200s or a multi-bedroom estate far from the hustle and bustle of the city, Arlington has it. And, I am here to help you GET MORE out of your investment, regardless of your budget.

There is a lot more to getting a good deal in real estate than a seemingly low list price. And as the old adage goes (which certainly applies to real estate transactions), you can’t simply judge a book by its cover.

Buying a home is one of the biggest purchases most folks will make, so it’s incredibly important to be meticulous when it comes to your future home. In order to get a truly good deal – and not a headache – you’ll want to look beyond the staging, in to the nitty-gritty of a contract, through the walls and into a home’s systems… and much, much more.

Having worked with buyers for 20 years, my goal is always to help them GET MORE out of their transaction and never settle for anything less than the best. And, that requires diving deep in to every aspect of a transaction.

These reduced properties are only the beginning of a successful transaction if you do everything else right along the way as well!

This week, as of April 24, there are 231 detached homes, 46 townhouses and 332 apartments for sale throughout Arlington County. In total, 59 homes experienced a price reduction in the past week.

Tax Day 2016 is in the books… HOORAY!

If you already own a home, you’ve likely taken advantage of the tax credits made exclusively available to homeowners. And, if you don’t own a home of your own quite yet, just know that there are some benefits when it comes to Uncle Sam.

In 2016, there were tax breaks pertaining to home mortgage points, property taxes, energy efficiency, renewable energy and private mortgage insurance, among other things. While these tax breaks may not be THE reason to buy a home, they certainly don’t hurt.

So, as you gear up for Tax Season 2017 (it’s never too early to start prepping) and look to possibly purchase a home this year, don’t forget about the tax perks you’ll have in store.

This week, as of April 17, there are 225 detached homes, 45 townhouses and 301 apartments for sale throughout Arlington County. In total, 61 homes experienced a price reduction in the past week.
