Loudoun Housing Inventory Continues To Decline
September 17th, 2008 categories: Market Statistics
On Wednesday’s I typically post local Housing Stats for Loudoun County. Since main stream media loves to play up bad news I think it is important to highlight that our local housing market is showing some great signs of strength and balance.
A few things to notice…..
- Though there are less homes on the market every month home sales have stayed steady.
- The amount of new listings coming on the market decreases every month. Less supply is good.
- As I have always said, the average sales price is a very difficult stat to gauge since it is based completely on what type of homes are selling.

Dulles VA… Location, Location, Location
September 11th, 2008 categories: Ashburn, Loudoun County
I was reading through a few notes made concerning the Washington Dulles Area that I found very interesting. I thought I would share a few with you….
“The Greater Washington region has a diverse private-sector economy, with strong technology, international business and tourism sectors. The region is also an association capital. It is by several measures the largest high-tech market in the country; it is also an ideal location for firms looking to gain global business exposure and access to federal policy makers.” — The Greater Washington Initiative
” Buried under the Washington Dulles Airport Toll Road are the vital electronic pathways that carry more than half of all traffic on the Internet. The region is home to more telecom and satellite companies than any other place on earth.” — TIME Magazine
“In addition, the Washington Dulles International Airport region is within an 8- hour drive of 50% of the U.S. population making it also a prime point for product distribution.
Aren’t you glad you live here?

Vote For The Continuation Of Down Payment Assistance Programs
September 4th, 2008 categories: Buyers, opinion
Part of the new housing bill passed that goes in to effect October 1st is the removal of down payment assistance programs such as Nehemiah and Ameridream.
These programs have been very helpful for buyers who do not have the full 3%, soon to be 3.5%, down payment required by FHA loans. They allow the sellers of the property to contribute to the down payment required by the lender.
On October 1st this will no longer be allowed. Family members can still contribute to the required down payment, just not the sellers of the property. Sellers can however still continue to pay for the closing cost of the purchaser.

Ashburn Village, Farm, and Belmont Country Club Home Stats
September 3rd, 2008 categories: Ashburn Village, Belmont Country Club, Market Statistics
Home continue in northern Ashburn continue strong in to September.
As you will see, there are currently a lot of homes that are pending a sale which means that they are in some stage of having a contract on them. The difference between this and previous months is that many of these now are short sales that have contracts but have not been accepted by the bank. It use to be that Realtors would not take them out of active status until the bank acepted the offer. We will have to see how all of this plays out.
