What does this mean?

If you are a Seller – check your Market – is your price attracting Buyers?

If you are a Buyer – check the stats of the neighborhood you want to live in. This is an overall glimpse of an area (not a subdivision, street or development) – I can run the stats for you for your specific price range and the specific area you are exploring to buy!

This information is taken from statistics for single family homes provided through the LAR MLS & analyzed by Kathy Carson-

There can be variables that affect my analysis. I supply this information for my customers, clients & business associates.

What Are Your Chances of Selling?

Brenda D. Moore, Associate Broker Serving the Lynchburg, Va Area: Real Estate Agent in Lynchburg, VA

Absorptions Rates are very important in deciding whether to list your home or how to price your home. I did a little research yesterday on my area and this is what I found in the City of Lynchburg, Va.

The criteria I used is Lynchburg, Va., price range $125,000-$180,000, Lynchburg School District for 3 and 6 months.

In the last 6 months 73 Homes have closed in Lynchburg, Va. in this criteria.

The average homes sold per month - 12

Current Active in MLS (Active, Pending, Sold, Withdrawn, Expired) 287

Month Supply of Inventory to be Absorbed IF NO OTHER HOMES COME ON THE MARKET - 24 months

% Probabiiity of Selling - 25%

In the last 3 months 36 Homes have closed in Lynchburg, Va. in this criteria.

The average homes sold per month - 12

Current Active MLS (Active, Pending, Sold, Withdrawn, Expired) - 160

Month Supply of Inventory to be absorbed IF NO OTHER HOMES COME ON THE MARKET - 13 months

7.5 % Chance of selling your home in 30 Days!

What do all these numbers mean? It means that we have more then a 6 months supply of homes on the market which is an unbalanced market. There are not enough buyers to purchase the supply.

What does this mean for a seller? If means you must price your home to sell, stage your home to sell and be patient.

Winter Weather Is Back Virginia: Are You Ready?

Debbie Malone, Lynchburg Realtor, (434) 546-0369: Real Estate Agent in Lynchburg, VA

Winter is back with a vengeance and snow is on its way.......are you prepared?

Snowy Road in Virginia

Last December, a 90 minute drive from Virginia Tech to Lynchburg turned into an 8 hour adventure to get home safely the next day. It started snowing shortly after the graduation ceremonies ended and we were caught in the worst snowstorm we've experienced since we moved to Virginia. Blinding snow fell for hours and cars couldn't make it up hills, they were abandoned on the side of the road, trucks blocked on-ramps to highways and hundreds of people were stranded on the interstate. After hours of creeping along the streets of Blacksburg, we were fortunate to find a hotel room for the night.

Be prepared for what is coming: Visit the ready.gov Winter Weather website for more information:

Step 1: Get a Kit For Your Car

  • Get an Emergency Supply Kit which includes items like non-perishable food, water, a battery-powered or hand-crank radio, extra flashlights and batteries.
  • Thoroughly check and update your family's Emergency Supply Kit before winter approaches and add the following supplies in preparation for winter weather:
    • Rock salt to melt ice on walkways
    • Sand to improve traction
    • Snow shovels and other snow removal equipment.
    • Also include adequate clothing and blankets to keep you warm
