The spring market is certainly starting early this year.

Buyers are moving fast to try and get homes under contract before competition heats up and the beautiful weather we’ve recently had is helping the market move along. Hopefully the snow this weekend won’t slow down open house traffic.

This week’s feature home is in the sought-after community of Maymont. The beautiful estate is located just minutes from Tysons and the Town of Vienna. Featuring over 9,000 square feet on three levels and a 4-car garage, this home is spacious enough for the whole family to really stretch out. Situated on a large lot of .57 acre, this home also includes an in-law suite and 2nd kitchen making it perfect for multi-generational living. 1351 Blairstone Drive Vienna (Reduced $110,000)

Question: How did the real estate markets near Tysons do in 2019?

Answer: Northern Virginia continues to dominate economic growth in the Washington region (see this excellent presentation from the Stephen Fuller Institute) and Tysons is and will continue to be an engine for Northern Virginia’s job growth.

Residential real estate prices have been mostly flat over the last 5-6 years, but buyer confidence has increased sharply over the last 12+ months with the announcement of Amazon HQ2 and rapid commercial investment in Tyson. This led to a strong year in the residential real estate markets surrounding Tysons.

For our annual review of the 2019 real estate market, we looked at the following Tysons-area markets:

• Falls Church: 22046 & 22043
• McLean: 22101
• Vienna: 22180 & 22181

With the exception of three outliers in Mclean ($12M, $20M and $43M sales) that skewed the findings and a few bad data entries that we removed, this represents all sales that closed in 2018 and 2019. We’ve prepared a bulleted list of key/interesting findings and then shared a summary table for those who want to review the data themselves.

Summary of Findings

• The average sold price across all three markets increased 5.4% in 2019 and buyer negotiation leverage dropped to an average of just 1.3% being negotiated off the original asking price
• Falls Church and Vienna led the growth in home prices, while McLean’s values remained mostly unchanged from 2018 (ignore the huge negative change in McLean condo prices, that’s a result of too few data points)
• The sub-market that performed the best was the Falls Church townhouse/duplex market, with a 6.6% YoY increase in average price
• The Vienna townhouse/duplex market provided buyers with the least room to negotiate, with the average purchase price equaling the seller’s original asking price
• While the 2019 condo market gained a modest 3.4% (not bad for condos), there seems to be significant upward pressure on prices coming into 2020 with a 40%+ drop in average days on market and buyer’s negotiating significantly less off the original asking price in 2019
• The number of new homes sold in 2019 increased nearly 30% from 152 to 195 and were pretty evenly distributed between all three markets

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone’s holidays were merry and the new year is starting with strong resolutions and happy hearts. The spring market is starting early this year and even though we haven’t completed the first full week of 2020, I’m already busy with buyers looking for homes. It’s a great time to go on market or get a jump on your search to buy a home.

This week’s feature home is a charming townhome in the heart of McLean. This beautiful end unit features nearly 3,500 square feet, gleaming hardwood floors and a gourmet kitchen featuring Viking appliances. This home is priced to sell and in a great location.

It’s that time again; to kiss away the old year and embrace a new one.

I can’t believe 2019 is over already. Every New Year brings a time of reflection — of what we’ve accomplished, what our new goals will be and for what we are grateful. For me, I extend my thanks to you, and I hope that you have gained something from my many posts.

I have enjoyed writing this column for the past year and I’m excited by what lies ahead. It has been a very rewarding experience writing this column and I’m looking forward to a new year of answering your real estate questions.

If you have real estate goals that you want to accomplish in 2020, this is the time to talk to a professional and make a plan to make those goals a reality. I’ll be happy to help you with that. If you don’t know where to begin, this past column will be helpful.

My first column in 2020 will be a real estate review for 2019. Stay tuned!

For now, here are the 5 Highest Priced Homes and the 5 Lowest Priced Homes that sold in 2019 within a 6 mile radius from Tysons.

Please keep submitting your questions to [email protected]. I look forward to answering all of them.

Happy New Year!

Welcome to New Homes, a monthly column highlighting the new construction real estate market, written by Conor Sullivan and Dave Moya of Three Stones Residential at Keller Williams Realty. We are here to share our experience and expertise in lot acquisition, financing and construction of custom homes. 

Trends come and go, especially in home design.

Remember shag carpeting? While many of the new home construction that we see is customized to the client, we do see trends in most new homes that are consistent. As we begin to close out this decade, we are sharing trends we’ve seen really take over the past several years.

• Wide Open Spaces: Open Concept. It’s been a popular design preference by many homeowners over the past several years. We like to be in one area of the home, and still be able to keep an eye on everything else that’s going on. The kitchen tends to be the center of the household, so having open lines and views from this room is the most desired when designing a home.
• Smart Technology: There are so many options these days to help make your home a Smart Home by installing new technology, helping to make it efficient and easy to operate — even when you’re not home! Let’s face it, busy lifestyles can lead us to forget to turn off the lights before we leave the house every now and then. With new smart technology, you can control almost anything from an app on your phone! Turn the heat down, lock or unlock the doors, turn off the lights, the list goes on.
• Low Maintenance & Sustainable Materials: When choosing the materials you want to finish your home with, many are looking to the types that can last years without needing any updating, and that have a reduced impact on the environment during production. This includes countertops, hardware and paint — select finishes that can be cleaned easily and don’t require maintenance. Sustainable flooring options include bamboo and hemp, made from durable plant fibers.
• Master Suite Oasis: While we seek an openness on the main level to live and entertain in, sometimes we just want somewhere to escape to. Enter — the Master Suite. Most new construction homes feature a large spa-like bathroom with a large soaking tub, shower complete with multiple shower heads and wide dual-sink vanities. This oasis is the perfect relaxing space to start and end your day.
• Gas Fireplaces: A fireplace can really set the mood for a room, adding a coziness factor that is enjoyed by so many. The days of finding firewood and kindling, stacking the logs just right and taming to the roaring fire all night are behind us. We can still get that cozy feeling (and heat!) from a gas fireplace. With the click of a button, you can easily turn the fireplace on or off, providing heat much more efficiently and quickly!

If you’re interested in new home construction going into the new year, we would love to help you find your dream home, or dream lot to build on! We’ve worked with many builders and new construction clients, and we’d love to be a part of your journey. Give us a call to schedule a consultation today! (571) 429-7670 or [email protected].

Below is a list of new homes in the Falls Church, Vienna, McLean and Tysons area:

• 914 Myers Circle SW, Vienna — $1,580,000 — 6,728 sq. ft.
