True Story: Yesterday, one of my Clients I recently sold a house to phoned me and stated: "David, you will never guess what happened?" I said, "I guess I'm out of guesses, what happened?" She said, "Our Hot Water Heater caught on fire and it was a good thing I was home at the time." She went on to share that their damage was truly minimal but the Hot Water Heater was finished!
Here is the GOOD News: She then thanked me for the Home Warranty I had supplied for them at their closing. She stated (and I quote), "AHS Warranty came out and replaced the Hot Water Heater and did a wonderful job!"
Thank you AHS for coming through. My clients are truly pleased and of course that makes me happy, too!
Giving a Home Warranty at close, using a variety of Home Warranty Companies is just Something I Do For All Of My Home Buying Clients. Let me say it one more time.... When you purchase a home through me or one of my Team Members, you automatically receive a Free Home Warranty at your closing.

No, it isn't to early to be thinking about Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day in Northern Virginia is truly a BIG Event! Every year, I am amazed a the amount of traffic and the amount of people heading out for Valentine's Day dinner.
I came across a very interesting Website that I believe you will find helpful in not only helping you to find the right place for Valentine's Day Dinner but for assisting you in making the ALL important reservations. Follow the link below to learn more. Most important, don't be fooled by the title of the link. Northern Virginia is included in the list.
Washington DC Valentine's Day Restaurants 2012
By the way: Don't waste too much time in making a Reservation. Many Restaurants are already fully booked.

We had the privilege of spending Christmas with family this year. Of course, the exchanging of presents was high on the list of my 4.5 year old Grandson. In fact, it was interesting watching him open his presents. You would think that he would have treasured the most expensive gifts. Instead, I couldn't help but observe that he seemed to appreciate the inexpensive presents more. At least every time we played together (yes Grandpa gets down on the floor and plays with his grandson) he pulled out the most inexpensive gifts.
By the way, he gave me something I will treasure for the rest of my life. It is a Coffee Mug with his picture. If you look closely, you will see he is handing the tray to Santa. (see lower left corner of picture on Mug.
I hope you have treasured and stored up some memories of the holidays, 2011. Christmas 2011 with Family!

I want to seize this moment to wish all of my clients, readers and friends a Very Happy New Year! I hope you enjoy a great weekend of celebration and then get off to a great 2012 beginning.
As for us, we are enjoying a quiet evening at home, will probably watch a movie or two and of course, we will order some pizza. I'm not sure about you but I like cheese, lots of cheese on my pizza. (smile)
Again, Best Wishes for the year 2012!
Respectfully,
David
