Most of the time putting together this blog is so exciting that I can't wait to get rolling every day. But often it seems like it may never get done since every new idea breeds another, and yet another brilliant idea. And the actual selling of real estate gets heavy too. As a result, my older concepts get back-logged as I try to produce Continue Reading
Figuring out the Vienna Home Market… July 2009
You may be bombarded with July's real estate sales data but I want to keep it simple, and the Vienna home market in the 22182 zip code appears to have picked up pace in July over 2008's numbers. If you are a seller with a home priced over $800,000 then you are still searching for a needle in a haystack. I just looked over real estate resale data Continue Reading
Installing a real estate “for-sale” sign in Virginia?
Better call Miss Utility first! Yes, that familiar RE/MAX Presidential sign in your front yard is going to require a bit more effort (and spray paint) to install. The Virginia State Corporation Commission (SCC) is turning up the heat on enforcement of the Virginia Underground Utility Damage Prevention Act which was enacted thirty years ago, and Continue Reading

UPDATE 9/2011: Pulte Homes has finally set up their sales office for MetroWest off of Lee Highway (Route 29) where they are building front load and rear load garage townhomes starting in the low $525,000 range.

And a key part of that search for meaning is finding a new favorite restaurant. Not necessarily a place like Cheers, but I imagine restaurants with local personality, charm, a Continue Reading
Bike trail to the W&OD Trail in Northeast Vienna
If you like to bike and use the W&OD trail or if you walk or jog, then you may want to know about this connector trail in Northeast Vienna, just inside the Town of Vienna, VA line. And if you don't know, the W&OD Trail goes for 45+ miles from Arlington, Falls Church, Vienna, Reston, Herndon, Ashburn and all the way to Leesburg. About 3/4 Continue Reading
Beulah Road and Trees in Vienna
Beulah Road, within the Vienna Town limits, was rebuilt in 2007 after twenty years of debate and multiple redesigns. This reconstruction started with the base road, added a storm water management system, replaced the 10” water main, added curbs and gutters, sidewalks and new above ground utility poles. The road was widened slightly but kept its Continue Reading
Figuring out the Vienna Home Market… May 2009
With all you read about the housing market, buying a Vienna home in 22182 appears to be a better bet right now. But if you are a seller with a home priced over $800,000 then you will be sobered. I just looked over resale data from MRIS of the Vienna zip codes ( 22180-22182) for the month of May, and the biggest gains seem to be in the 22182 zip Continue Reading
