Again, nice neighborhood 20 years ago, but very high traffic and crime creeping closer would make me nervous about a 30 year contract or a high price. Four houses for sale on one street? Wow. I went down Colesville away from downtown, and saw a bunch of side streets with for sale signs up.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if these sellers are long time residents getting out, or recent buyers trying to score a profit or get out without too much pain.

Like the guy who previously commented in an earlier blog said, reading about your local market is what I like best about your blog. Pictures/prices/length of time on the market give me a better feel of what is actually happening.
ReplyDeleteThanks, David.
you are welcome.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff. I've been looking in NW DC for sometime, but will not bite at these prices. I get 2-3 emails/week from PN Hoffman (the condo developer)- about "last chance to buy" that condo near U Street or Alexandria for $5xx K (all 1200 sq. ft). Its funny cause last year, it was hard to get into a preview party- this year, they can't sell them much. My question is- are new condo developers not allowed to decrease the price of the condo they are selling to- say- the 60th buyer if the first 10, 20, 30 buyers bought at a higher price before? I'm wondering why they just don't decrease the unit prices quickly. Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteWell, two were flippers and two were long time owners.
ReplyDeleteIf the results can be extended to the rest of the DC area (and they probably can't, but what the heck), then 50% of demand this year is from flippers. LOL. That won't last.
Thanks for all the great posts from yesterday, David. Very interesting stuff.
Since I live in Fairfax, I'll be dicussing a restraining order with my attorney.
