About Reston's Hunters Woods

Single family homes for sale in Hunters Woods section of Reston VA 20191

Cara: Can you tell me what single family homes for sale in the Hunters Woods area of Reston? The 20191 zip code.

They must have at east 3 bedrooms and 2 or more full baths.

Steve: Cara, as of today there are 38 homes for sale in 20191. Here is a link to the October 20, 2010 report on the single family homes for sale in Reston's 20191 ...featuring at least 3+ bedrooms and 2+ baths.

Cara: I must say that I am sorely disappointed with the old data I have come across on the main public home search programs... 4 of the 5 homes that I wanted more info. on turned out to have been sold or put under contract days (sometimes weeks) ago. What do you recommend I do?

Steve: The reason the big public home search programs are so out of date and such time wasters is that they have to pull info from hundreds of separate Multiple Listing Services from all over the country. It is a huge data transfer problem.

We have 3 programs we use to help friends and clients search online. Right now this is the most popular: Northern Virginia Homes for Sale. If you click on that link it will take you to a search set up page.

The data on the search site is normally updated no later than every 60 minutes, so it is the closest you can get to the Realtor’s Multiple Listing Service (MLS).

You often see a home listed on a place like Realtor.com only to find that it went under contract 2 weeks ago…that should not happen here.

Cara: What areas does the search cover?

Steve: The entire DC metro area. Virginia, DC and Maryland. Reston too of course. It is linked straight to the local Realtors MLS and only acquires data from there. That is one reason the data is fresh...it only has to pull from one local source of data...not hundreds from all over the US.

Buyer demand for townhouses in Hunters Woods was clearly driving the significant improvement in total number of units sold in this area in July 2009. This demand is likely driven by the government incentives for First Time Buyers and the favorable interest rates.

In Hunters Woods and Northpoint, there as been an increase in the average net sales price while Lake Anne has seen a decrease.
