It was a picturesque scene Friday morning: the Middleburg Film Fest producers were sitting side-by-side in front of a roasting fireplace in the library of Salamander Resort. The two women, Sheila Johnson and Susan Koch, were flashing prideful smiles. Their baby was underway.

For Johnson, the CEO of Salamander, this was her second extravagance introduced to the cozy Loudoun County town of Middleburg in a few-month span.

The article, Should You Buy a Home Now or Pay More Later?, explains: “With mortgage rates creeping up toward 5% as 2013 draws to a close, potential home buyers have some decisions to make — and soon.
