About Samson Realtor.com
This is the Samson
Realtor.com website with links and information about Northern VA Real
Estate. A companion site to these pages is the
NOVA Real Estate Blog. I
am a member of the National Association of REALTORS, Virginia
Association of REALTORS and the Northern Virginia Association of
REALTORS. I have been a multiple recipient of the Multi-Million Dollar
Sales Club and have qualified for the Top Producer Award for 2007. I am
a licensed real estate agent throughout
the Commonwealth of Virginia. I am a member of the MLS serving all of
Northern VA which is called Metropolitan Regional
Information System or MRIS for short.
I was originally licensed as a real estate agent in 1990 and went to
work with Samson Associates in Oakton VA. In 2002
I hung my license with Brookside Realty Group in Chantilly VA. Since the
fall of 2005 I have been with Samson Realty
LLC in Chantilly VA. Throughout my real estate career I have only worked
under one managing Real Estate Broker, Mike
Briggs.
Like most Northern Virginia Real Estate Agents I represent clients as
both a Buyer Agent and Seller Agent. If you are
selling a home Samson Realty offers four percent or four and a half
percent listings. I provide a Free Competitive
Market Analysis to assist Seller's in setting a List Price for their
properties. I have decades of marketing experience
and your home will be fully exposed to the real estate market including
multi-photo packages, slide shows, virtual
tours and considerable Internet exposure on all the most popular real
estate portals.
For Buyer clients I offer Cash Back Rebates if approved by your lender
and itemized on the HUD 1 at settlement. I work
with a wide variety of Buyer's from First Time Buyers to Move Up Buyers
to Down-Sizers to Investors.
If you are looking to purchase a new
home there are many home builders with new home communities in this area
such as:
Toll Brothers, Centex Homes, Beazer Homes, NV Homes, Equity Homes,
Brookfield Homes, Craftsmark, Winchester Homes,

Custom
Homes, Basheer & Edgemoore, D.R. Horton, Drees Homes, Engle
Homes, Gulick Homes, KHovnanian, M/I Homes, Miller
and Smith, Pulte Homes, Richmond American Homes, Ryan homes, Ryland,
Stanley Martin, and Washington Homes.
Northern VA has a wide variety of real estate to choose from with
condos, townhomes, detached homes, executive estates,
farmettes and working farms. With most of the inside the beltway
properties built prior to 1970 we have traditional
ramblers, ranchers and cape cods closer-in to Washington DC. The further
out you explore for your new home the more
modern the architectural styles and the newer the properties.
Whenever you consider a real estate sale or purchase you should
familiarize yourself with the local real estate market.
Of course you should be able to count on an experience real estate
professional for advice and market trends. Are we in
a Buyer's Market or a Seller's Market? What about the real estate boom
of 2000-2005 or the Northern VA Real Estate
Bubble that burst in 2006-2007? Does the market really matter? Are there
always opportunities in every real estate
market? As an experience real estate agent I would say "definitely YES!"
As we are about to enter 2008, there is a lot
of good real estate for sale in Northern Virginia including: residential
homes for sale, new home construction,
investment property and even some raw land and lots for sale. The
residential resale homes market has been very stable
in the more affluent Northern VA communities. Short Sales,
Pre-Foreclosures and Foreclosures have been more
concentrated in lower valued single family, town home and condo
neighborhoods.
Unfortunately, there is not a lot of money in the rental real estate
market. The time and effort helping a Landlord
rent an investment property or helping a tenant find a rental condo,
rental townhouse or rental home is just not
adequately rewarded when time and effort are balanced against rental
commissions. As a service to the public and to
promote future business or serve future clients I attempt to assist in
one
rental transaction per month. Homes for rent,
Rent to own, Rent with Option to Buy. Samson Realty has recently
launched a rental property management division and I look
forward to future assistance from within the Samson Realty. |
