I had young clients who were intent on buying a larger home. We looked for a long time, but due to the lack of inventory and their unwillingness to enter into a bidding war we were not being particularly successful.They had purchased a new construction townhome in Spring Oak in Malvern by J.P. Orleans with me several years ago and as their family grew they were now interested in buying a single family home. With four young children in tow we continued looking at homes. I suggested they look at the development they were in and see if the builder had any lots and models that they liked. Initially they were not in favor of this plan.Then suddenly, out of the blue they called me they had been walking past the model home and had gone in to see what sites were available. The site agent knew m... 06/03/2025

We have all sorts of animals and birds in Chester County, I passed vultures fighting over a deer carcass on the side of the road this morning. Then, when I arrived to show a potential tenant a townhome we have listed this guy was walking around. I believe Wayne Martin had a question not so long about a Peacock. 06/06/2020

Ghosts?!  Not the Home Inspector's Fault Ghosts?! Not the Home Inspector's Fault is how I started my story this past Thanksgiving.  I was swapping some stories with a fellow home inspector and told him about a 300 year old home I inspected a few years back near Malvern, PA.  The home was built in the 1750s and was a good size property.  I know this home inspection would take a good 4 hours or so.  My home inspection clients were really excited about the architecture and character of the home and were very engaged during the home inspection.  They followed me around as I taught them about the home's systems and intricacies. Everything was going quite well for the first couple hours.  For a 300 year old home, there were some issues that came up, but it wasn't anything I thought would scar... 11/29/2019

Our recent listing and sale at 822 Cottonwood Drive in Malvern PA 19355 set a new record for the development selling for $626,000.

With the multiple avenues the house was marketed through with websites, social media posts, video posts and the mls we had multiple showings right away, with two open houses attended by 170 people over the weekend.The house received 11 offers... 06/14/2018

  This gorgeous Lockwood Chase home in Malvern, West Chester Schools will hit the market next week. We are just waiting for the photographer to do his thing.But, in the meantime, let me tell you a little about how beautiful this home is. We walked in last night having sold it to our sellers back in 2011. It is what every buyer is looking for, move in ready, all the right colors, open floor plan, a fabulous lot, all set on the original grounds of the Malvern golf club, so the community is also fantastic. Lots of places to walk. The original description when they bought it described it as a classic brick colonial with lots of curb appeal, and nothing has changed, what the sellers have done during their ownership has only added to the property with a new front yard landscape package last y... 04/12/2018

As I was studying real estate listings on the market in Malven, PA, I noticed a listing that had just dropped it's price by $490,001 on 2-27-15.  The description said it was "built to resemble the Governors mansion in Virginia".  Having visited Colonial Williamsburg with my family many a times over the past 16 years, I immediately realized that the photo of the estate for sale resembled the Governor's Palace in Colonial Williamsburg!!  Of course my children now want us to move to this lovely estate, however John and I (as Realtors) would more likely assist a buyer looking to own such a magnificant property.   If you look at the photos of this estate in Willistown Township: http://searchlistings.teamluca.com/idx/9005/details.php?idxID=216&listingID=6403477 http://www.lucateam.com/6403477... 03/02/2015
