Northern Neck Update May 2010

Here it is the first of May, we have warm weather, and it is time for things to really kick-off here in the Northern Neck. Some May events are to your right. I usually don't give a link that leads readers away from my newsletter but I am this time. One of the events, The Menokin Musical Festival, is an event that you might want to attend if you haven't been before. The cost is reasonable, there is good food, lots of music, and the proceeds go to help preserve some of our Northern Neck history. Menokin was the home of patriot Francis Lightfoot Lee, a signer of the Declaration of Independence.
Now for the real estate part of this Northern Neck Update. A piece of good news I read in the Richmond paper this morning is that the Virginia housing market is improving. Something especially encouraging to me, since so many of many clients are from the Northern Virginia area, is that the median price in NVA rose 12.6 percent from this time last year.
