Northern Neck Real Estate is Slow

Filed under: Real Estate — admin @ 5:11 pm

Waterfront property in the Northern Neck is priced better than it has been in in years.

There are some exceptional prices out there if you compare them to the last 3 years.

Waterfront lots seem to be the best price of the the different catergories.

It looks like if you look at what people are asking for a waterfront home in the Northern Neck and you price it on X number of dollars per square foot and then add the price of what lots are selling for then I think the homes are a little high.

Keep search the Northern Neck MLS and give me a call.

Northern Neck Real Estate Review or the Northern Neck MLS

Filed under: Real Estate — admin @ 8:28 am

In every area of Virginia or any state I ever been in I can always find a publication for local real estate being sold.

 

The same is true for Northern Neck Real Estate. Although the Northern Neck Real Estate Review offers you page after page of colorful pictures it gives you no idea of the location, water depth, or days on the market that the Northern Neck MLS can.

 

The Northern Neck Real Estate Review shows you the asking price of a property. By using a Buyer’s Agent (of course you want that Buyer’s Agent to be Ken Smith) that agent can use the Northern Neck MLS to tell you what a property sold for which is a powerful tool in determining what to offer for property. 

80% of all home buyers start their search on the Internet and close 100% of my clients are people away from the area who are looking for a waterfront property whether it be a waterfront home or waterfront lot on or near the Chesapeake Bay.  

With the Northern Neck MLS you can be notified when properties are listed or when prices change for properties that meet your criteria. Can the Northern Neck Real Estate Review do this? No and not only that the information you get might be as old as 60 days whereas the Northern Neck MLS is current.
