Yes, there are more photos of this home…

To see more of the photos, they are available on the Google Picassa page for this home… some are duplicates but, I feel, the more the better. Please note in the photos that the parcel behind the shed and chain-link fence  (tax ID 37-005-028) conveys so your new back yard will be 400 square feet bigger!

Now that’s cool…

The home has a (SentriLock)  lockbox for REALTORS, or you can call Doug Francis, REALTOR, for a private showing @ 703-304-6827.

Shameless Home Buyer Agent Plug

As my client’s “ buyer agent”, I was able to keep this transaction together even though my clients were in California. Understanding their limited time on the ground here in Northern Virginia, I discovered what they wanted and showed them their options on a few of their cross country house hunting trips. When we discussed mortgages, I was able to uncover a unique solution to dealing with stringent new mortgage lender requirements. And when they decided on this home, put together a strategic offer that beat out a competitive offer.

After all that, there was not an extra fee charged by my company, the Sellers paid the real estate commissions, and my clients bought a great house that they are thrilled with!

If you want to consult with me, then shoot me an e-mail right now…

Equal Housing Opportunity!

Lots of space, finished lower level, big bedroom sizes. But it took a lot of work, time, patience, and a couple off-hand prayers. Took about 2 months (fast) but almost 30 days without any response to the offer! Bought in 2009.

My thoughts on the short sale process are further expressed here…

So this baby recently sold for $580,000.
