On November 30th this beautiful Yardley Model, a 4 BR, 2.5 BA home with an unfinished basement went to settlement for a sales price of $400,000 with no seller subsidy.  The key feature of this home was the backyard.  It featured a mature tree save area, two stone patios, a deck, retractable awning and lush landscaping. If you'd like to know the value of your Braemar home, get in touch with me.  As a resident of the community since 2004, I have been keeping track of home values and trends in the neighborhood.  I'd love to help you sell your home!

I did some research today on Victory Lakes, a neighborhood I am very familiar with (I happen to live there), to get an idea of what is going on with my neighborhood market.  I was not surprised by the results.  The pricing is all over the map, which seems to be the norm these days.People can we please get real here?!!!!  This is not 2005 and you can not expect 2005 prices.  The market has changed and if you are going to sell your home in 2007 (soon to be 2008) then you need to price your home for THIS market, not the market from 2 years ago.  I know as Sellers, we would all like our homes to sell for 2005 prices, but the reality is they won’t.  There is absolutely no way around this fact.  Let’s put yourself in the Buyer’s Shoes. If you were on the buying side in today’s market, what wo...

Agent Rating Review - Daughter buys, sells, parents sell  Frank and Nancy's daughter Natalie needed to buy her first house.  She picked the GOLD Team 6 years ago and bought a townhome in Beau Ridge Estates in Woodbridge, near Montclair. Several years later Natalie got engaged and needed to sell to move to another state. She picked the GOLD Team again. Last year her Frank and Nancy bought a new home in Bristow directly from a builder.  To sell their Montclair home they picked the GOLD Team, even though they had a satisfactory relationship with the agent they had previously used to buy the house. Here are Frank and Nancy's comments about the GOLD Team's Jim Gilbert:"Jim is competent and thorough. We trust him completely to do the best possible job for us.  Our family has uses him for 2 sa...

  James and Stacey O. owned a newer home in Woodbridge near Manassas. The builder was nearing completion of their new home. Their parents and their adult brother were going to be buying neighboring houses in the new subdivision enabling easy access for grandchildren, cousins and socializing among the homes.  The only trouble was that James & Stacey's existing home had been on the market for months with no offers despite being listed with an established, capable, and reputable local agent.  James & Stacey relisted their home with the GOLD Team and it was sold swiftly.   James and Stacey then referred both their parents and their siblings to the GOLD Team to market those houses.  The siblings house sold and the parents leased their house out.     All three families were able to move into ...

Oscar Aguilar is a small business owner, an experienced real estate investor, and a Manassas homeowner.      Recently Oscar attended a GOLD Team Open House and decided to buy the home.  As an experienced buyer he requested - and the GOLD Team accomodated - that we write his offer to purchase even though acknowleging in writing that we represented the seller.  After some interesting negotiations the house was his.     Subsequently Oscar asked us to list and sell his single family home in Gainesville, which was swiftly and successfully accomplished.     And now Oscar has referred his brother to us who has listed a Burke single family home with the GOLD Team.     When we asked Oscar why he liked the GOLD Team over his prior agents he said simply, "You worry all the time to give good service!"
