Even with all of the inventory on the Charlottesville real estate market well priced homes are selling. The key word here is price. Buyers are savvy; they know the available inventory and are looking for a deal. In order to sell quickly it is important for a home to be in perfect condition. Todays buyers do not want to have to fix up their new home. They want it to be in move in condition. Therefore it pays to fix all of those little items before the home goes on the market. However the main thing that today’s buyer is shopping is price. They have been conditioned by the media to expect a great deal. As a result of searching the internet, buyers know what is out there and how the homes are priced. If you want to get an offer, you will need to make sure that not only is your home in the best condition but also that it is priced competitively. If your home is well maintained and is priced aggressively showings and offers will come.

If you are considering putting your home on the market, it is important to get the advice of a real estate professional. He will be able to go through your home and tell you what you will need to do to ensure that your property shows its best. He will also prepare a comparative market analysis of homes that are on the market now and also homes that have recently sold so that your home can be properly priced to enable a quick sale.

Nightsongs Still Happen in Fluvanna

A couple of nights ago as I was getting ready for bed in my Fluvanna County home, I put on a casette of Keith Jarret piano music. As I lay in bed listening to the peaceful music I noticed that there was a sound of an owl softly hooting among the piano notes. I sleepily thought what a nice touch the recording of the owl added to the music and I drifted off to sleep. A little later when I woke the music had stopped playing but there was the faint hoot of an owl. Throughout the night whenever I woke slightly the owl was still outside my window. I sleepily thought of how special it is to live in a place where I can still hear the night music of the owls.

Listening to the owls brings back the happy memories of when my now grown girls were babies. Both children were born in March, so there were many spring nights when I was awake during the wee hours feeding a baby with the music of the owls in the still night. We named our Charlottesville horse farm Nightsong in memory of those nights.

If you would like to come to a part of the country where you can still hear the songs of the owls and whipoorwill and the cries of the foxes echoing throuth the night, I would love to help you find a Charlottesville country home.
