Question: How do I prepare my home for the market without breaking the bank?

Answer: I am often asked this question when I am working with a seller getting ready to put their house on the market. Interestingly enough, I am currently in the process of helping several clients determine their pre-market punch list.

Listing of the Day: 304 N Pitt Street

Virginia was a Colony when this home was built with the Declaration of Independence still 6 years in the future!

History buffs: The front portion of this 3,000-square-foot home dates to 1770 and was built as a modest two-room house. Over the centuries, it was expanded three times to its current size. It first housed a merchant, who sold it to a rope maker for the ships visiting Alexandria. The rear stable was re-built into a kitchen sometime in the late 1800s/early 1900s. Today, it stands as a 4-bedroom, 2-full and 2-half-bath home that has seen Alexandria grow from its infancy to the bustling City it is today.

Ask McEnearney: How does it feel after a downsize?

Question: How does it feel after a downsize?

Answer: A few years ago, I downsized. We moved from a single-family home to a townhouse. The kids were out of college and the question was, do we need this large house. Plus, my business here at McEnearney Associates/Crouch Realty Group is all about downsizing, helping older folks transition and working with estates, so I wanted to practice what I preached.
