  • Ever Heard of a CSA?

    ·

    About nine years ago Heather began having migraines on a regular basis. After a few doctors appointments and some research on our own, we realized many were being caused by chemicals in our food. If you actually read what is on the label of stuff you buy in the grocery store you might never eat!…

  • 2013 Year in Review: Greenway Farm

    ·

    There must be something special about living in the southwest part of Leesburg. That’s my only explanation for the sparse activity in each of the neighborhoods here, including Greenway Farm. Despite over 400 homes it’s odd for more than twenty to sell in a year. The 2013 real estate market was a bit more active…

  • Luxury Home Outlook for 2014

    ·

    We started the year off with one of our favorite posts, 2013’s Most Expensive Homes Sold in LoCo. Over the last few weeks we’ve reviewed the 2013 real estate market for most of our towns and many neighborhoods. Let’s take a look at last year’s luxury market and see what that may bring for 2014… The…

  • 2013 Year in Review: Country Club

    ·

    Another LoCo neighborhood near and dear to my heart, Country Club is home to many friends from my time at Westpark Golf Club. With an eclectic mix of home styles and sizes, it’s not unusual for there to be a $150,000 swing in price from one house to the next. Let’s take a look at…

  • How Much Home for $300K in LoCo Today?

    ·

     Last week when we wrote about homes in the $400,000 price range there were 1500 active listings. Here we are a week later and only 2 more homes are on the market, maybe the weather is slowing things down. If you are searching in the $300,000 price point, you have 59 of the 1502 homes currently on…

  • 2013 Year in Review: River Creek

    ·

    River Creek is one of my favorite golf courses, and we love the wide array of architecture. I’ve come as close to getting a hole-in-one as you can without the ball going in the hole on #14, and competed in a few MAPGA tournaments there (my personal best is 73). Let’s take a look at…

  • 2013 Year in Review: Kincaid Forest

    ·

    They say hindsight is 20-20, well that was never truer for Kincaid Forest buyers in 2013. If they had known prices would soar and selection would dwindle, a few more folks may have decided to move in 2012. Let’s take a look at last year’s incredible market here… A typical single family home in Kincaid…

  • LoCo Photo: A View From Above

    ·

    That’s Route 7 and Battlefield Parkway in Leesburg, with Tavistock Farms and Kincaid Forest in the center.  Heather was flying back from Chicago and snapped this picture. If we thought it was cold here this week, they actually closed the National Association of REALTORS building on Tuesday due to -45 degree wind chill. It’s amazing…

  • 2013 Year in Review: Woodlea Manor & Woodlea Hills

    ·

    In my former life as the golf pro at Westpark, we would have to run kids from Woodlea Manor off the course on a regular basis. We’ve also helped friends sell their home here and then move back, and have always kept an eye on the neighborhood. Let’s take a look at how 2013’s real estate…
