Just Listed in Arlington

Just Listed highlights Arlington properties that just came on the market within the past week. This feature is written and sponsored by Andors Real Estate Group.

Sellers — It’s time to list your home! Seriously, the buyers are still out there and continue to clamor for inventory.

The hottest price sector is still those below $1 million, but there is still excellent movement up to $1.5M. Condos continue to sell at the most aggressive pace due to their relative affordability when compared with single family properties.

We should talk about virtual showings for a moment. The vast majority of buyers will not buy a home they have not actually stepped foot in. Despite great technology making it easier to visualize the property without being there, most simply will not spend near $1M without visiting in person. I am seeing the properties offering only virtual showings sit on the market despite being priced properly. If you’re getting ready to sell, expect the buyers will want to come tour in person.

You’re probably inundated with national news, mostly mentioning how COVID-19 is negatively affecting markets, consumer spending is down, and home builders aren’t starting new projects. I’ve said it before, but I’ve got to say it again — that just isn’t our reality in Arlington! Lines at the coffee shop, Amazon delivery drivers on every block all day long, and showings piling up at fresh new inventory for Arlington listings is our continued normal.
