Elaine VonCannon, a Coldwell Banker REALTOR, recommends taking a closer look at in several areas of Virginia. "Look at waterfront homes in Chesapeake Bay Country and estates and historic homes in Williamsburg, James City County and York County. In York, Henrico and Chesterfield Counties, buyers will find horse farms and estates with equestrian facilities for sale. High end home buyers in these areas of Virginia will find excellent bargains right now," said VonCannon.
"Interest rates are historically low, at approximately 4% for well-qualified buyers," said VonCannon. "This, combined with the sharp reduction in prices for luxury homes in Williamsburg, Richmond, and Tidewater Virginia, creates an excellent opportunity for home buyers," she added.
Although median sales prices for homes are declining in some Virginia real estate markets, the number of home sales across the Commonwealth is stabilizing, according to VAR QE3 2011 report. In Richmond, Southside Virginia, Chesapeake Bay and Hampton Roads, the number of home sales has increased, indicating many real estate investors see now as a good time to buy and find values.
