You Got Punk'd by the Media -- Arlington Real Estate Market Stats

Media Predicts 25% Decrease in Arlington Virginia Home Values?

Once in awhile I get so frustrated about the lack of either forthrightness, common sense or expertise demonstrated by various real estate media sources both locally and nationally.  A classic example recently came out in this article in BusinessWeek titled Housing Meltdown.

business week real estate meltdown    It stated that housing prices would come down 25% with some of their sources claiming up to 40%.  Nowhere in the article is any strong point for how hyperlocal real estate is including Arlington real estate for sale.  Such stories are in essence fear mongering & hype when no disclaimers or explanations are given for how the story has almost nothing to do with any particular reader's local real estate market.  …

Power of the JustNewListings.com Blog Motivates Builder to Fulfill Obligations to New Condo Owner


I received an email from a colleague awhile back about her client who was being treated quite badly after purchasing a new condo.  I'm leaving all the names out now that the issues have been resolved. 
frustrated condo buyer owner

There were leaking issues, damage to wood floors and granite countertops, and some bait & switch type action by the builder regarding the buyer's parking space, etc.  The builder was being unbelievably unresponsive to meeting their obligations to the new homeowner. 

So we posted a first hand testimonial by the buyer regarding all the above mentioned issues in addition to others.  I optimized the blog post so that when one searched for the condo by…

The Right Way to Sell Northern Virginia Real Estate in DC Area

Sellers Stop!!!  stop sign virginia real estate


Sellers, the world has changed.  Why are you paying extra to sell your
Northern Virginia real estate using yesterday's methods which are actually more expensive?!?!   The answer is probably that you haven't been researching this intensely as you are too busy.  You do have a life, right?  And I'm sanguine that the "high powered" listing agents whose ads you see all over the place in your Arlington Sun Gazette (insert your own local newspaper) are not telling you how real estate has changed....  In fact they probably don't even know themselves.   And if they did it might make them cry:

Yet they continue to talk you into using themselves to sell their homes for…
