  • Will Loudoun County Tax Assessments Really Go Down??

    Last year many Loudoun County homeowners were screaming foul as tax assessments skyrocketed yet home values fell. With so many appeals  - the Assessor's Office claimed to "assess properties based on 100% of 2005 fair market value".

    Many citizens were not pleased with this response, claiming they could not sell their homes for anything near the assessed value, and many homeowners appealed with justifications based on which neighbors sold recently and at what prices...

    The Assessor's Office then noted that most property assessments would decrease for 2007 - as the new assessments would be based on "100% of 2006 fair market value".

    And so we wait...

    The Assessor's Office will mail the 2007 assessment notices in mid-February. You may want to pay special attention to yours...

    More information, including 2007 Assessment Review Application forms and answers to frequently asked questions, is available on the Loudoun County Government Website at www.loudoun.gov/assessor .

  • A Night At The Museum (seriously)

    If you and your family want to see the holiday movie: "Night At The Museum", why not make it an IMAX experience? The Smithsonian's Udvar-Hazy Center (near Dulles Airport) has special holiday showings 3-times daily, all week long. General Admission is $10 -- similar to other theatres but the HUGE screen is amazing. Looks like it's only showing through January 31 so hurry for your tickets...

  • Mortgage Rates Down

    Many experts had predicted rates would hit 7% by year-end, yet the past week has shown yet another drop in interest rates -- which are averaging 6.18% for a 30 yr fixed mortgage - based on the week ending Nov 22. This is the lowest that rates have fallen in the past 10 months - since the week of Jan 26.

    What does this mean to you, the Buyer? It means you can buy more home for your dollar since your monthly payments will take less of your paycheck.

    For Sellers: Perhaps more Buyers will come off the sidelines and decide to take advantage of the new rates and purchase their next home...

    Is it time for you to speak with your Lender and see how much home you can afford? Please contact me if I can help -- I know several area Lenders who are trustworthy and deserve your business.
