Buying and Remodeling Our Extraordinary Buyers Program!
I have been serving the Northern Virginia Real Estate community’s needs since 1978. There are lots of changes that have taken place over this time period. As hard as it is to believe, I started selling Fairfax County, Arlington County, Loudoun County and Prince William County real estate before laptop computers were available for the real estate agent to use. From computers, to internet technology, a lot has changed but somethings haven’t changed. Buyers still want to Buy Low and Sellers still want to Sell High.
Today, I want to briefly discuss with you a program that is second to none for the Northern Virginia Real Estate Buyer. This program is designed to help a Buyer buy low and when he or she is ready to sell, to sell high! What I am referring to is one of the best kept secrets in the real estate industry. It is a little known program that enables the Buyer to purchase a property and remodel it simultaneously.
This is such an impressive statement it is worth repeating: Buying a property and remodeling it simultaneously is no insignificant matter. It means so much to a prospective Buyer in so many ways. For example,
1) The Buyer can customize a purchase in a way that no other loan program offers
2) The remodeling opportunities are astounding
3) The Purchase and Remodeling is limited to your ability to qualify and the maximum loan limits.
4) To illustrate the remodeling possibilities, here is an easy example, the Buyer can buy a property with an older kitchen and replace that kitchen with a brand new gourmet kitchen.
5) To elaborate the remodeling possibilities almost the entire house can be torn down and rebuilt provided there remains an original foundation wall.
6) As you can see, the ability to customize is significant.
7) When the remodeling is completed, The Buyer moves into their custom, newly, remodeled home
For numerous reasons I do not want to get down into the minute details of the program in this Blog post. However, I feel it is important for you or someone that you care about that may be considering purchasing real estate to know that this is available. Why is it important to you, you may ask? Well, that is what I would like to discuss with you.
Please call me at 703-385-RICK (7425) at your leisure and I will be happy to explain the real estate side of this program and the loan side as well. I am a real estate Broker and a Mortgage Loan Officer too. My wife, Joey (short for Josephine) and I are both Virginia Real Estate Brokers and as stated, I am also a Licensed Virginia Mortgage Loan Officer. Our real estate and my loan officer credentials are enclosed at the end of this post.
Naturally, this Buy and remodel program is only one of the many ways I can serve you. If you are interested or know someone that is interested in buying or selling a property, please have them call me at 703-385-7425 which is also: 703-385-RICK.

Is Buying and Remodeling Northern Virginia Real Estate in your future?
Is Buying
and Remodeling Northern Virginia Real Estate in your future?
Are you aware there is financing available to assist you not
only with the purchase of the property but also the improvements? If you would
like to know more about how to accomplish buying a
property and remodeling it simultaneously please call me at 703-385-RICK
(7425).
Hi, my name is Rick Saunders, Associate Broker of Lord and Saunders Real Estate, Inc.
and I would like to discuss with you why you should consider Buying and
Remodeling Northern Virginia Real Estate.
This is an exciting way to buy your Dream Home. Many people
talk about it but few do it because frankly they don’t know where to begin.
That is where I come into the equation. I would like to discuss with you
exactly how we can help you. I have the experience, expertise and the ability
to make your dream home
purchase a reality. That sounds interesting doesn’t it?
In this quick blog post it is not my intention to convince
you to do so but to have you contact us to discuss the possibilities and
benefits from such a venture. The reason
Buying
and Remodeling is attractive to some Purchasers of Northern Virginia Real
Estate is the profit potential or the instant equity realized upon completion. For others, the very idea of designing
and building their dream
home is very appealing.
The beauty of real estate is its uniqueness. No two
properties are exactly alike. In any given subdivision there are similar styles,
characteristics and features but not one property is exactly the same as another.
While this is true, the very nature of mass production within the building
industry requires the original builder to limit the purchaser’s choices
regarding options when originally purchasing the property brand new. This
limitation is removed when you buy and
remodel. The opportunities are limited only by your own budget. This is where
the fun begins.
Our Northern Virginia real estate market consists primarily
of four counties: Arlington
County, Fairfax
County, Loudoun
County and Prince
William County. We specialize
serving Buyers and Sellers of real estate in these four Counties. As a native
Northern Virginian, I know this area like the back of my hand. While many real
estate agents have chosen to specialize in given neighborhoods early on in my
real estate career I chose the road less travelled covering the entire Northern
Virginia real estate market.
We not only represent Purchasers that Buy Northern Virginia Real
Estate but we also represent Purchasers that Buy and Remodel Northern Virginia Real
Estate. There is a difference. Representing Purchasers in general is called
Buyer Brokerage or Buyer Representation and I am one of the Northern Virginia founding
Fathers of Buyer Brokerage. I would like to represent you.
The great news is Sellers in the vast majority of cases pay
our real estate Brokerage in full enabling us to represent you as a Purchaser
at no cost to you as the Purchaser. I bring 35 years of Northern Virginia Real
Estate expertise to the transaction. This means you can have my expertise as a
Buyer in the vast majority of cases at NO COST TO YOU!
One example of a potential purchase
and remodel that currently is available For Sale is located at: 9229
ELJAMES DRIVE, FAIRFAX, Virginia VA 22032.
This property is located on a half-acre lot for $425,000.
If you would like to explore the possibilities regarding
this property or another I would be happy to help you as a Buyer Broker please
call me at 703-385-RICK (7425). Thank you.

Unlocking the hidden value in Real Estate
Unlocking the hidden
value in real estate!
My name is Rick Saunders. I am a real estate Broker with Lord and Saunders Real Estate located in McLean, VA. I began selling real estate professionally in Northern Virginia in 1978.
My name is Rick Saunders. I am a real estate Broker with Lord and Saunders Real Estate located in McLean, VA. I began selling real estate professionally in Northern Virginia in 1978.
I grew up in Arlington,
VA and one of my earliest memories I recall as a child of three is the
construction of one of my relative’s homes in Great
Falls, VA. I recall my extended family making a big fuss over my desire to
push a simple concrete block that was in front of me. Many of my loving and
doting loved ones were concerned and some were convinced that I was going to
injury myself by simply leaning on said block. Undaunted, I continued pushing but
to no avail.
Over the years this instance as I recall it, is a vignette,
illustrative of what I would later dedicate my career to accomplishing. Not
pushing a block of concrete mind you, but dedicating myself to understand what
many of my family members clearly understood and that is the remarkable value
of Northern Virginia Real
Estate.
Today, I would like to begin to touch upon online one of
my favorite topics: unlocking the hidden
value in real estate.
Perhaps, some of the greatest decisions we make financially
in life is the property we chose to buy or sell. Most that I have observed over
the years accomplish little more than what I was attempting to do with the aforementioned
concrete block. Purchasers often decide to buy or sell in a manner consistent
with my desire to move that block, the block is representative of the real
estate market. To their amazement the market doesn't respond as they desire.
To move the block requires power which as a three year
old I did not possess. To move the real estate market requires a similar power.
Not brute strength but the power of clearly understanding the task at hand.
Every property has strengths and weaknesses. There is no
perfect Home, Town home or Condominium. There are however, numerous opportunities
frequent unseen virtually in every instance. Thus our topic: unlocking the hidden
value in real estate.
There are so many directions I could go regarding this
subject the challenge I have is to determine which to discuss first to keep it
interesting. When I am with a client it is always interesting because whether
they are a Seller or a Buyer their own interests are being specifically discussed
and they stand to profit from said discussion.
I am going to begin first illustrating the power of leverage.
I will discuss it from the Purchaser’s point of view first. All of us Purchasers
have something universally in common. We want to buy low and sell high. To do
this requires a combination of a couple things. First a low demand for the item
and then a greater demand. How can that be you may be tempted to ask? It is elementary as Sherlock
Holmes would respond to Dr. Watson’s similar question. The answer, in this
example, is we purchase a property that is in low demand, perhaps, due to its
condition and remodel it thus changing its condition and its demand.
To do this requires skill and knowledge 'tis true, all of
which I can help you with. The leverage in this instance comes from the low
demand due to its condition and the Purchaser’s ability to finance the
improvements also thus altering its condition and thereby creating a higher demand.
This is a slice of one example for you
to consider when choosing whom to work with as a Seller or a Buyer of Northern Virginia Real Estate.
