Sprucing, pricing credited for fast move near Barracks
-
This Canterbury Hills home spent just a day on the market and sold for more than the asking price. The listing agent attributes six offers she received for 101 Westminster Road to the sellers' willingness to assertively spruce and price the house.Samantha Masone

This is a terribly good price on that particular home. Americans continue to loose the shirt off their backs in this economy. Five or six year ago that home would easily have sold for $325,000 to $350,000.
GSOE, I would argue that is an appropriate price for that home.
The inflated prices of 2001-2007 do not reflect real value, vis-a-vis incomes in this area.
Great Buy, I'm jealous
You have a good point, NRT. The inflated prices were born as localities taxed people to death so as to maintain their levels of growing spending year to year. But it was what it was.
It's not so much the burst housing bubble that's killing people, the city and county are responsible for people losing the shirts off their backs now when they inflated prices for self serving tax assessment purposes back then.
I have a house in the same neighborhood for sale, and I am looking at a $75,000 loss over what I could have sold it for back in 2006 or 2007. At this point in time I couldn't care less if I sell it or not, I'm sure the city and county will over inflate tax assessments again as soon as they can get by with it.
@NRT, $251,000 is a great price for this house that is within walking distance of Barracks RD Shopping Center, near the Law, Business and JAG schools, and in a county school district. "...vis-a-vis incomes in this area. A long list of people making over $100,000 a year at UVA was recently posted in The Hook. When you combine that list with those at NGIC, DIA, and GE there are a great deal of people that can more than afford this home at that price especially since it has been refurbished.
Isn't this neighborhood directly adjacent to where the Western ByPass is going ? Maybe that explains the price. Sadly any house in the vicinity of this road will suffer.
The general neighborhood has been adjacent to the 29 by pass since the dawn of time. To this particular house I don't think the new by pass will be any closer than the current one. A large sound barrier should have been put in for this neighborhood against the current 29 by pass.
