Plenty of Overpriced Condos in Clarendon, Rosslyn & Ballston in Arlington
Yes it's time for another installment of the overpriced condo series. I have a feeling there will never be a lack of Arlington condos about which to write. Homeowners tend to be naturally prone to this disorder--OCD--overpriced condo disorder. Perhaps that will be our new term as an amateur review just placed this blog at #41 on the most popular real estate blogs in the country. Not too bad considering there are thousands of them now. So let's get right to business and try to cure some Sellers of their OCD.
NOTE: This post contains my personal opinions only and does not reflect the opinion of RE/MAX Allegiance and cannot be taken as advice for your particular situation. …

More Overpriced Condos in Arlington VA
Yes it's time for another look at the latest and greatest overpriced condos in Arlington along the metro at Clarendon, Rosslyn & Ballston. I usually lump Courthouse into Clarendon to save ink for what's it's worth. Literally I get asked about when is my new list coming out. I just get so busy with business & life and sometimes these articles can take 4+ hours to research and write. So once in awhile I write them. I keep writing the series for several reasons. One reason is to keep myself sharp on the market place. I like to be able to know off the top of my head when I'm showing condos to my clients…

Latest Round of Overpriced Condos in Arlington -- Clarendon & Ballston

It's time for a whole new round of overpriced Arlington Virginia Condos in Clarendon & Ballston. Orange liners have a knack for living in the past in terms of the values of their homes. Yes there were some crazy-A glory days where you could list that condo and have at least 5 offers coming in all with escalation clauses bidding it up. It was a brutal market. It led to my article on How to Win Against Mulitple Offers.
But now we have a corrected market with equilibrium. The demand is high, but the seller now has to be reasonable, i.e. price close to market value. The reason demand is high is because Clarendon is the hottest market in Northern Virginia Real Estate. Back in Nov. 2006 when the rest of Northern Virginia was experiencing 20% fewer…
The Latest Overpriced Condos in Clarendon and Ballston

This is one of my favorite regular posts to make...probably each month I find time to do it. There are times showing property when I just have to tell me buyers, "I'm sorry about the price on this one. The owner just doesn't get it. He's still trying to sell his home at the peak price of 2005." Often the investors are the worst about this. Also the FSBOs tend to be guilty as well more often than the regular listings by listing agents. I had compiled this list a few weeks ago but was too busy to post. Since several have been withdrawn, expired or dropped their price. So here's what's left of that list of Clarendon and Arlington Condos and a few newcomers in the last 10 days. And any time search the cutting edge Arlington Virginia MLS by clicking on…

Clarendon VA -- Condos That are Overpriced in Arlington

As some of have been in touch with me as a result of some of my recent posts in Market Observations for condo Arlington Virginia I thought I'd add some examples of overpriced condos in Arlington Virginia. Here are a few on the orange line to which my original post referred: Arlington VA Condo Prices Must Come Down
You'll notice here some of the older condos in Clarendon VA that now are trying to compete with brand new condos that are more conveniently located in most instances. Also older condos do not have the cutting edge ameneties such as huge rooftop deck/pools with views of the monuments & Potomac or LARGE exercise rooms with flat screen TVs, etc. You can get those units in the new buildings for $370+ so why would I pay more than $340 to live…
