The Wall Street Journal recently profiled the Half-Backs: people who retire in Florida, realize Florida isn't for them, and then settle halfway up the coast in Virginia.   Many of these Half-Backs settle in Virginia Beach. Here's why:   Many retirees flock to the city’s 35 miles of wide, sandy shoreline and other natural wonders such as the Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, with its thousands of acres of marsh and dunes. Hikers can walk through trails along the waters in First Landing State Park, the most visited park in the state. And athletic types will find they’re not alone. The area hosts the nation’s longest running surf competition, and Men’s Health magazine ranked Virginia Beach as one of the fittest cities in America. There is plenty to do beyond the beach. The heart of the ci...

Travel & Leisure magazine has just ranked Virginia Beach as one of the best Boardwalk towns in the United States.   Virginia Beach's 3 miles of oceanfront boardwalk ranked #7 out of 13 popular destinations, ahead of Myrtle Beach. Aside from the historical sites along the Boardwalk, "Parents and kids love the four-seat surrey bikes, the small family-friendly parks, and the 15th Street Amusement Park, with its wild spinning Skyscraper ride."

I was showing a home in Virgnia Beach the other day and noticed a really bad smell.  I narrowed it down to the laundry room.  Left over damp clothes that had been there way to long.  Here are some tips to make your listings smell better.   Usually full of dirty clothing, that sits behind closed doors for days, it's not surprising that these small areas develop an odor.  Whether it's a musty smell coming from the washing machine or body odor from the clothing, it's not pleasant and a real turn off to potential buyers. Most sellers that have odor in their laundry room are surprised when it is mentioned to them.  People get used to their own environment and things like this go unnoticed.  Potential buyers like mine, however, will notice and they won't like it. Odor is not something people ...

Cheapism.com just ranked Virginia Beach as the #3 Cheapest City to live. Why Virginia Beach? Virginia Beach has a high local median income, low local taxes, and a low unemployment rate.  Pair that with our resort beaches, hundreds of acres of parkland, and extremely small violent crime rate, and you get an amazing value for your buck. The ranking puts us ahead of Raleigh, NC; Minneapolis, MN; and Portland, OR.  Learn more about the local reaction here or find statistics about individual neighborhoods here.

Here are a pair of eagles in Virginia Beach.  One is HK who was kicked out of the Norfolk Airport airspace.  He has taken up residence in my backyard of Glenwood.

A splash of color goes a long way in dedicating Charity House Built by Sasser Construction in Founders Pointe Inspiration comes in many forms, but it takes a little dedication and hard work to make a vision into a masterpiece. And that’s exactly what five children from Portsmouth’s Douglass Park Unit of Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeast Virginia did on a chilly March afternoon in Founders Pointe a few years ago when they painted a mural on the wall in the garage of a Homearama home built by Sasser Construction. The Sasser Home served as the Charity House at Tidewater Builders Association at the first ever Spring Homearama held in Founders Pointe, located in the Carrollton area of Isle of Wight County, Virginia. When the home was sold, the proceeds went to benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs o...

Time and time again we get this question from some of our clients. “I read in the papers that the average rate for mortgages is _____%. Yet I am being quoted a higher rate than average.’ Why am I being asked to pay more? This is a very good question and one that deserves more than a “cryptic” answer. After all, your home is the most important investment and typically your largest payment. The rate you are charged directly affects that payment. First, you must understand that the averages reported by major information sources such as Freddie Mac and BankRate.com will be based upon averages of those who have certain “personal” and “transactional” characteristics or variables. Each of these variables may affect the rate you will be asked to pay. In this report we will explain many of these...
