Ready to Shop for a Home in Northern Virginia?

You've been househunting online for a while. Hopefully you started by using the best tool for searching homes in the Northern Virginia and D.C. area.

Now you've contacted me and you're ready to shop for a home in Northern Virginia.

Here’s the fun part!

Time to go shopping – shopping for a house! – hop in my car, buckle up and prepare yourself to tour Northern Virginia neighborhoods and homes. You’ve decided upon your househunting criteria and provided it to me. I’ve selected a dozen homes in several neighborhoods that best match your criteria.

While some of my clients have fallen in love with the 1^st home we’ve seen, I’ve found that most folks view an average of 7-10 homes before making their decision. Looking at more than 5 or 6 in one outing can be overwhelming especially during these hot summer months, so we’ll spread things out over more than one day (unless of course you just fall in love with a home).

I’ll point out some of the features of neighborhoods and locations, including proximity to your office, shopping, public transportation, and schools. Please take notes on each home feeling free to explore every nook & cranny. (Read Swing Open the Closet Door.)

Ask me questions about the homes. Feel free to take photos, or I’ll take pictures & e-mail you online photo albums later. Tell me your thoughts – whether you love it or you hate it, don’t hold back. They’re not my homes so I won’t get offended and your input will greatly help in keeping on track in helping you find the right home. You’ll find that Real Estate is a Process of Elimination.

I’ll see the gleam in your eyes and just know it when you’ve find the right place. Not to mention, when you start visually laying out your own furniture in the living room, it’ll be a dead giveaway.

Congratulations! You’ve found your future home!
