Should I Wait for Interest Rates to Come Back Down?

by The KCM Crew on September 3, 2013 · 0 comments

in For Buyers

RatesAbove is a graph of the movement of the 30 year fixed mortgage rate since the beginning of 2012.

Some buyers are waiting to see if interest rates will come back down before making a decision about buying a home. Though no one can guarantee where rates will be in a few months, we don’t believe waiting is a good strategy.

Most experts believe rates may actually move higher. The Mortgage Bankers Association, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the National Association of Realtors are in unison projecting that rates will continue to climb.

Many have waited for Aug. 29 for more than 10 years.

Standing just in front of the “house she built” as she stepped to the podium to officially open the Salamander Resort and Spa in Middleburg, founder and CEO Sheila Johnson was feeling a wide range of emotions.

Fighting tears of joy, Johnson thanked Middleburg's Mayor Betsy Davis and the rest of the Town Council for its unwavering support of the project.

Inova Healthplex plans moving forward in Ashburn

Inova 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?

by The KCM Crew on August 27, 2013

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.

Dulles Day Plane Pull-Sept 14, 2013

September 14, 2013 | 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM
at Dulles Airport | visit: planepull.com
• free admission & parking • live music • kids zone • car show
• aircraft displays • kids truck pull • door prizes • & more!

The Dulles Day Festival & Plane Pull® is Special Olympics Virginia’s “heaviest” fundraiser, pitting teams of 25 against one another to see who can pull a 164,000+ pound Airbus 12 feet the fastest. Teams must raise a minimum of $1250 to participate – that’s just $50 per person – and all proceeds help Special Olympics Virginia provide year-round training and athletic competition to more than 11,000 athletes of all ages.  

If pulling a plane seems just a bit beyond your reach – how about a truck?  The Kids Truck Pull pits teams of children against a big red 123JUNK truck; the team who pulls the truck 12 feet the fastest wins.  Each child must raise a minimum of $10 to compete and will receive a t-shirt.
