Spring is here and favoring Buyers. The strong Virginia Beach sellers market of the last 2 years is adjusting to more realistic sales pricing. Over the last few months, sellers have started realizing that the slowdown means more days on the market. The higher priced homes are especially seeing more days on the market. Also, some sellers are giving substantial assistance to Buyers closing costs on full price offers!

If you are a VaBeachHomeBuyer and want to take advantage of the current market, try to get pre-approved by a local lender. Also, find a good REALTOR who can represent you and will look out for your best interest and has strong negotiating skills.

Of course, you want them to be on a constant lookout for the latest homes that are hitting the market. You also want them to have the persistence to get the right home in the best area for the right price.

As far as new homes and construction, there are a number of new developments going up in Virginia Beach. New home community sales are brisk.
