The Loudoun County Department of Economic Development has released its annual report for fiscal 2013.

Officials with DED are celebrating an excellent year in economic growth in all of the departments target clusters.

DED is reporting 56 “wins” within their targeted clusters last year, which is an increase of 47 percent over fiscal 2012.

Loudoun's Economic Development team defines a “win” as a business either moving to Loudoun, staying in Loudoun or expanding in Loudoun.

By that definition, 56 different companies either moved to, stayed in or expanded in Loudoun this year.

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.

Here are three great reasons to consider buying a home today instead of waiting.

1.) Prices Will Continue to Rise

The Home Price Expectation Survey polls a distinguished panel of over 100 economists, investment strategists, and housing market analysts. Their most recent report released last week projects appreciation in home values over the next five years to be between 12.3% (most pessimistic) and 32.8% (most optimistic).

The bottom in home prices has come and gone. Home values will continue to appreciate for years. Waiting no longer makes any sense.

2.) Mortgage Interest Rates Are Increasing

As reported by Freddie Mac, interest rates for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages have risen about one full percentage point over recent historic lows.

Trump National Golf Club in Potomac Falls, VA (Sterling, VA) is hosting the 38th Annual Junior PGA Championship July 29, 2013 – August 2, 2013ADMISSION is FREE and the public is invited and encouraged to come out and watch the PGA super stars of tomorrow play.  The tournament is for boys and girls between the ages of 14 and 18 and they will be playing a very tough course that is much longer than one might expect.  The course has been created using holes from both of the golf courses and is almost 7,000 yards long for the boys!  For anyone who knows golf, that is a long course.  The average course length for men on most public golf courses is between 6,000 and 6,500 yards for better golfers.

Donald Trump came out in support of the tournament today.  Hosting this PGA event is one of the first steps required before graduating to host a regular PGA event.  This is a great achievement for Donald, one in which he has been working very hard to get since buying the club.
