Coventry Glen is a well kept secret in Woodbridge Virginia. Unless you know someone who lives there or you visited when the model home was once there, chances are you have no idea where this community is. Ah....but for those who do live there, they were thrilled when they found this cul-de-sac community with no through streets. It has the perfect setting to promote a sense of community and camaraderie among neighbors.
Coventry Glen is tucked just off the Prince William Parkway behind Reid's Prospect. Turn as if you were going toward Reid's Prospect pass that community and at the turn about ( circle) turn right, then follow this road to the community back in the woods! Note: if you go around the circle you will head directly into River Falls another stunning golf course community here in Prince William County. And actually is you continue to the second circle and bare to the left toward Old Hickory Golf you can take a drive through and view the most expensive homes in our area in River Falls on the Occoquan.
Get Ready To Be Impressed. These Homes Were Built By Ariston Homes.
As you can see this community is gorgeous. The homes are large in. They range from about 3000 square feet up to 7000 square feet. There are two level Ramblers, Colonials and Tudor Style Homes.They all have high ceilings, luxury kitchens and baths, many have massive sun-rooms, amazing floors plans beautiful lots! Keep in mind that this community was built in the height of the 2004, 2005 real market and for that reason it has see it's fair share of short sale and foreclosures. This neighborhood ranges in price from the low five hundred thousand up to a Million Dollars.
If you are looking to buy a luxury home in Eastern Prince William County Virginia, let me know what your looking for. I will be happy to set you up to receive automatic updates on any home that comes on the market in this community or River Falls, or River Falls On The Occoquan.

Moving to a new area, buying a home can be scary. How do you know who to trust, where to go? How do you do it all in a week? The key is to do your homework. Yes, homework!
Currently there are so many tricky situations in real estate in 2009 heading into 2010 that could potentially cause you the relocating buyer a great deal of stress." No longer can a relocating buyer just show up in town and take a look around at houses and pick one and move in 30 or 60 days without a lot of preparation."
What kind of preparation?
Well let me share with you that the world of Real Estate here in Prince William County Virginia is fast and furious. It reminds me of how it was in 2005 and 2006. All those bidding wars and those escalating princes. Well it's happening again. The only thing that is different, is prices are more affordable. What you need to know is not all homes are equal when it comes to relocating buyers. I know that sounds harsh but it's true. This is especially true for Military folks who have sepcific time lines! Did you know that in Virginia,New Home Builders have up to two years to build you a new home? Will that happen? Realtors can help you figure that out. Then there are Short Sale Homes For Sale. If you get caught in one of these situations, you may be moving here, looking for a temporary rental while you are waiting the homeowners bank to tell you if they will let you buy the home. Then there are the Foreclosure Homes. When a buyer submits an offer lets say on the third day of your trip hoping you have an answer by Friday before you leave are shocked to learn,that the answer may take a week or more. It's always good to have a Plan B just in case. This is why it's critical, that you align yourself with a Realtor who is proficient in helping Relocating Buyers maneuver through all the challenges the current real estate market has to offer.
DO YOUR HOMEWORK before you just show up in town!
Homework:
Remember a local Real Realtor who knows the area well, who works full time and is able to start sending your homes for your review prior to your arrival is your best choice. Someone who will listen to what you want and who knows right where to find your dream home and knows how to help you get it. You want someone who will help alleviate your stress, help you use your time wisely and who will show you everything that is available in your price range. Take a look at how I recently helped a relocating buyer decide where to buy. If you would like my help, feel free to contact me.

Short Sales on the whole are painful. There is nothing short about them. You would think that banks would have systems in place by now, to streamline the process. NOT YET!
Distressed Sellers, Anxious Buyers and Realtors across America are still waiting for that day to come. Maybe in 2010!"
In 2008 and 2009 Short Sales have become the norm around Prince William County Virginia, they are everywhere. That's because homeowners who are transferred, or who have lost a job or a spouse or simply the mortgage payment went through the roof cannot sell, cannot refinance and are left with short sale as the only option. Many buyers do not want to hassle with them. For those of you who do not have the paitence to sit around for months waiting for a short sale to be approved and you are shy about writing on a Foreclosed Home, just know there's such a thing as an Approved Short Sale!
For example I went to see a house today photographed below.I was alerted the house status had changed. The home is now again ACTIVE on the market as an Approved Short Sale.
Me:I called the agent to ask what the situation was.
Agent:" Well, we had a Buyer for this house, but it took Bank Of America seven months (yes 7 Months!!!) to approve the short sale. However the buyer could not meet the terms. So now we have to resell it. The bank has approved$265,000 with no closing cost help."
Me: Thank you so much, I'll get my client over there this afternoon!
Approved Short Sales are showing up regularly now. Do you know how to find them? Well Erick and Company scubbs the MLS Database daily for them. "To access this weeks list of Approved Short Sales in the Woodbridge, Lake Ridge Virginia area go to http://erickandcompany.com/home-page.asp"
You Can Search The MLS Right Now and For Sale By Owner Homes.

Peggy,
I thought it would have been nice to put you on "My FIRST PLACE or PROPERTY VIRGINS". As I watch these shows, the agents arent as friendly as you. I think that you have a presence that makes it easier to go into unknown territory. Hey based on your picture on the internet, I knew you were the agent for me. :) Again I appreciate all your help and trust me I will recommend anybody looking for a home to you. I will even make sure that they have a preapproval letter. :)

Peggy,
Thank for all your help with buying my home. I'd be lost without you! You have made the process easy, even though I didn't have a big budget. I can't believe you help me find such a nice townhouse in my price range.

Erick, Patty and Peggy,
THANK YOU! I must apologize for not getting back to you on previous e-mails. As you mentioned below it has been VERY hectic. Getting moved, adjusting the kids to the new place, etc. It has been fun but a little crazy at the same time.
Karen and I would like to thank you and Erick for all the help you provided us during our housing search. We ended up with a wonderful home and through it all you two were GREAT! I am just beginning a new career with the State Department so I will have an opportunity to speak with numerous people who over their career will be stationed within the Washington, D.C. area. I will make sure to sing your praises and ensure that anyone consdering moving to this area will have heard of the Blackwelder name.
Again, thank you for all that you have done for our family. It is greatly appreciated.
Warmest Regards,
Joe & Karen Benson
