DC Flip Flop

Kyle — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 13:51:36 +0000

With all the shows geared towards quick cash in today’s shaky economy, the stand outs without a doubt are the home flipping entrepreneurs. They do it all right down to gutting, rebuilding and staging once dilapidated nothings, into what seem like shiny new everythings. From a personal standpoint though, I prefer the Holmes on Homes, [...]

IT’S AFFORDABILITY, STUPID!!!

Troy — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 20:45:52 +0000

If you were in a store with loaves of bread for 67 cents, would you buy? If you were driving by a gas station and you saw 97 cents per gallon, I know you’d stop, fill up and then call everyone you knew. Even go back with jugs. Those were 1989 prices. Seems impossible doesn’t [...]

This historic neighborhood enjoys a wonderful mix of residential and professional consumers. Big plans abound for redevelopment as the $4 billion Anacostia Waterfront Initiative kicks into high gear. The core of what is now the Anacostia historic district was incorporated in 1854 as Uniontown and was one of the first suburbs in the District of [...]

Positive Forecast Ahead…

It appears to be a positive outlook for our 2012 housing condition. Luckily, snow has not paved heavy enough to cause major delays in our travel. As cold as it was this past Sunday, we continue to receive a good amount of foot traffic indicating serious buyers in search of their new home, even in [...]

The importance of your credit score cannot be overemphasized these day. It affects not only the interest rate you’ll get when you apply for a home loan or refinance, but also your rates on car loans and credit cards. Surprisingly these days, even employers will monitor your credit rating. This article explains much about what goes [...]

H Street NE Rocks!

“Over there is going to be a southern cooking place, and over there is going to be a new vet,” the man said to who I could only assume were his parents. As the group walked on and I slowly made my way past them, the conversation jumped at me, alive with future plans, descriptions [...]

Mortgage Rates Are Stunningly Low

Troy — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 15:42:39 +0000

Rates are stunningly low … now is the time to refinance or get into that mortgage you’ve been holding off on. Don’t wait for them to go lower as lenders will make it harder for you to qualify if they can’t make real money off of your loan and as we all know, the lower [...]

The Washington region has become a magnet for young adults embarking on careers and families, putting it in the company of capitals of cool such as Seattle and Denver. “It’s the economy and hipness,” said William Frey, a demographer with the Brookings Institution.” Aside from Washington being known as the center of power, it has [...]

Winter Preparations

Troy — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 17:00:33 +0000

I love living in Washington, DC especially during autumn. We have some of the most beautiful weather and the view of the trees from my window is cascading with some of the most spectacular colors imaginable. It lulls you into a bit of complacency as we gear up for winter. Well, Thanksgiving is done and the [...]

Why DC Is My Home

Kyle — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 22:18:16 +0000

DC at it’s core is a snapshot of the pulse of the nation but not in the way others would think. We show where the nation was, is, could and should be. When the housing market fails around the nation, we keep buying and selling. When HGTV comes on and says that the days of [...]
