My hope is that this blog will become a resource for rural South Central VA. Here, folks will have an opportunity to learn and to ask real estate related questions that may be important to them personally or that concern a family matter - similar to how the Richmond Times Real Estate section in the Sunday paper takes questions from its readers.
Over time, I also hope that it becomes a resource for potential buyers in other parts of the state and country – a place where they become more familiar with our region. While I’m certainly not the “know-it-all” to every real estate question (and I am not a real estate attorney), I am an experienced Real Estate Broker, Licensed Auctioneer and Residential Real Estate Appraiser, and I hope that I can provide you with information and leads, if not answers, to your questions. Beyond that, I encourage you to challenge my opinions.
In addition, here I will highlight current events, both locally and nationally, that may have an impact on our market. When in doubt I will draw on my resources from the VCU School of Real Estate, as well as consult a real estate attorney and/or an experienced appraiser with whom I am associated. (Please take a moment to click on my affiliated links on the right.)
Also check in with me frequently for current listings or auctions featured here – this blog will be a first source for opportunities that may stimulate your interest whether an investor or a first time buyer.
Finally, if it is an appraisal you need, I can do that too.
Please don’t hesitate to email me or give me a call - I look forward to working with you!

It's often that myself or any Realtor gets a chance to list and sale a going business opportunity. Rich Windon has listed his Safe Tow auto towing operation. He is selling the real estate, rolling stock, equipment and contracts (ie GEICO and TRIPLE A). He will even stick around and train the new owner.
ReplyDeleteThe real estate has a new remodeled 1,000 sq. ft. apartment. I have spent extensive time working the numbers and I believe a bank will take a serious look at this loan application. Contact me if there is interest and I can email you a package.
I am finding that credit is beginning to ease up. Lets face guys, banks make money by making loans. I am closing a FHA loan in 2 weeks with 96.5% financing for 30 years. I said in the fall of 08 that it would be 2010 before we see some normalicy in the market. We are starting to hear from and see Buyers. Stay intouch for more real estate news, and send me your questions.
