Inova Healthplex plans moving forward in AshburnInova Loudoun Hospital during the last year has been undergoing expansion and construction to better its facilities. Inova Health System is preparing to move forward with plans for a Healthplex in Ashburn, north of Route 50. The 50,500-square-foot Healthplex and 71,280-square-foot medical office building will be at the intersection of Barrister Street and Loudoun County Parkway, just south of the Greenway. The Healthplex will primarily be an emergency room and a resource for outpatient imaging. “We have had that site under contract for three or four years now and the idea there, as we have developed our services across the county, is to provide pretty broad access to people across Loudoun County to health care services,” Inova Loudoun Hospital CEO H. Patrick Walters said. “At Lansdowne we have our advanced acute services and what we are developing in the Ashburn area is outpatient services.”

14,767 Houses Sold Yesterday! Did Yours?There are some homeowners that have been waiting for months to get a price they hoped for when they originally listed their house for sale. The only thing they might want to consider is… If it hasn’t sold in this hot market, maybe it’s not priced properly. After all 14,767 houses sold yesterday, 14,767 will sell today and 14,767 will sell tomorrow. 14,767! That is the average number of homes that sell each and every day in this country according to the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR) latest Existing Home Sales Report. NAR reported that sales had increased 17.2% over the year before. According to the report, annualized sales now stand at 5.39 million. Divide that number by 365 (days in a year) and we can see that, on average, almost 15,000 homes sell every day.

Leesburg Real EstateLeesburg places high on Top 50 Best Places to Live listCNN Money has released its 2013 list of the Best Places to Live in America and Leesburg has been ranked in the Top 50. Coming in at 35, Leesburg was recognized for its “charming downtown dating back to 1758 and [the town has] made a point of preserving the historical architecture.” Other characteristics acknowledged in the report are Leesburg's proximity to Virginia wine country and its award-winning farmer's market. CNN Money acknowledges the median housing cost – at just less than $400,000 – is not cheap, but reasonable for the region. Leesburg wasn't the only Washington, D.C. suburb to be on the list as Vienna, Va. was the third best place to live in the United States. With Leesburg's proximity to Washington, D.C., CNN Money reported that while there are not many large employers within town limits, many citizens commute to D.C. and other places to work. Leesburg's Economic Development Director Marantha Edwards believes that may change soon as jobs have been increasing within the town as larger employers have begun setting up roots here.

by on August 12, 2013 Today, many real estate conversations center around housing prices and where they may be headed. Some believe rapidly rising prices have created a new ‘housing bubble’. Others believe that the sudden rise in interest rates will impact purchasing power to such a degree that it will force prices downward. There is no lack of opinions and there is absolutely no consensus. That is why we like the Home Price Expectation Survey. Every quarter, Pulsenomics surveys a nationwide panel of over one hundred economists, real estate experts and investment & market strategists about where prices are headed over the next five years. They then average the projections of all 100+ experts into a single number. Monday, August 12 2013
