Loudoun Tax Facts
February 3rd, 2012 Categories: For Homeowners, Local Issues, Loudoun County
Yesterday, I attended a class taught by the Loudoun County tax assessor, Todd Kaufman. Todd shared a lot of valuable information including the major sources or income from Loudoun, exemption information, and how to appeal a tax assessment. I have decided to share a few of my notes with you…
Interesting Facts…
- Loudoun County is the SECOND LARGEST county portfolio in Virginia.
- Loudoun’s property portfolio is over $56 Billion with over 120,000 parcels!
- The number of parcels have DOUBLED since 1997!
- There is over $5 BILLION of property in Loudoun that receives tax free exemption status. Almost $4 Billion of it is government property.
- The county judges your square footage based upon exterior measurements. Not by measuring inside of your walls.
- The county is beginning to work with a new technology that allows them to view your property at many angles. This allows the county to see if you have made exterior modifications without reporting it to the county, ensuring that you have not added a feature like a garage/ deck that you are not paying taxes on.

With the national trend bending towards the downsize, more and more builders are finding room within their inventory for lower price single family homes. With families in Northern VA spending so much time commuting, the requirement of a large lot is sought out less than in the past due to the upkeep needed.
If you are searching for a single family home in the $500-600k range in Ashburn, you are now in luck. Here are a few of the best options in our market.
A. OneLoudoun- Camberly Homes
Singles priced from 499-589k
I know that it is difficult to buy in on a new community that is all dirt. However, when this community begins to develop in to all that is planned for it, it will be one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Northern VA.
B. Reserve At Waxpool- MI Homes

The Real Estate Apps I Use The Most (Android and Apple)
January 16th, 2012 Categories: For Fun, opinion
Real estate applications have become very popular since so many people now have smart phones. While I have had a few downloaded on my phone like zillow, century21, and one from zip realty, there are only a 
couple that I really like.
My favorite real estate application, which is free and works for both devices, is the Century 21 application. The built in GPS feature pulls up homes around your exact location showing you everything that is currently available for sale, for rent, and from every brokerage. It does have a built in search function if you want to narrow down or expand your search.
The problem with almost every application on the app market like zillow, realtor, trulia, homes, etc… is that the material is outdated. In other words, you are viewing homes that are no longer on the market. These sites continue to show homes that are under contract or that sold months back making them a waste of your time.
THE BEST OPTION… if you are wanting to use a mobile search tool is to find a really good MLS site that has a mobile search and use your online browser to view it. (Warning- Shameless Plug Coming) I have that site and it is not this one. I have a site known as JonathanBunn.com that has an incredible mobile search feature!
The great part for you is that the homes shown are actually available! Simply bookmark it in your phone and use this. You honestly won’t be disappointed. Go ahead, check it out now and let me know what you think.
