The real estate market in Charlottesville and Albemarle in 2019 was great for some, good for some, and less than expected for others. Pay attention to the real estate market information that affects you. The reports linked below are relevant insofar as they matter with respect to overall real estate trends for our market. Not the Commonwealth of Virginia, not the US, not Culpeper County or even Augusta.

I’m a broken record, I know, and I’m posting these reports here as much for you as for me – my site is way more googleable than my brain.

So Much Content – Podcasts, Notes, Words
I walked in a new-to-me park last week in the City of Charlottesville. Can you guess which one? Producing content is hard. So is practicing real estate. Blog posts have been in short supply of late, as client representation takes precedence. With that said,…
