Fortunately, I took it all in good stride. I hate having people force decisions down my throat, and I don’t ever want to be “That Realtor Guy” who pushed someone into buying a home they didn’t love; especially when that someone is a friend of 14+ years!

With the current economic downturn and low interest rates guiding us, we finally found a fantastic option! We had been looking at every foreclosure and short sale imaginable, but in the end we actually decided on new construction!

This is her first home, and she’s excited that the idea of being a homeowner will soon be a reality! I’m excited that she’s decided to purchase without being pressured into something she doesn’t love, and here’s the best part!

Guess how much her townhouse is going to cost:

1. $275,000?
2. $260,000?
3. $250,000?
4. $240,000?

Would you believe me if I said that it was less?

I can’t disclose how much our contract for these new construction townhouses is for due to client confidentiality, but here’s what I can tell you:

For a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 3 story Townhouse with brick front and a 1 car garage, prices are starting at $230,000!!! for that price we’ve been looking at foreclosures in need of serious repair! Less than $250k can get you brand new construction in Waldorf, complete with your own garage!

I know I’ve got other clients who are now looking at buying a new townhouse rather than struggle with foreclosures that “need work” (“needs work” is a polite way for Realtors to say “prepare to hire a general contractor”!)

If you’re looking for new construction in the Waldorf or Charles County are, give me a call and I can help you find and negotiate great deals on your new home!
