With house prices at record highs, it’s time to consider a new plan.

Selling a home today makes a lot of sense with home prices continuing to soar. However, if you are retired, or close to it, where to go is a major factor and the cost to buy something smaller is also just as high.

One incredible option is to sell your home and downsize to a smaller home that can be built in a family members property. With land as expensive as it is, this option provides incredible benefits such as liquidating the equity in your larger home, and moving into a new, smaller home at a fraction of the cost.

So many of our clients are doing this and we would love to discuss this with you.

If you, or your loved ones, are considering your housing options as you age, we have the solutions.

Call us today.

This is great stuff happening in the City of Alexandria and neighboring areas. Great post Mayor Wilson. Mayor Justin Wilson

Two years ago, Alexandria approved our Accessory Dwelling Unit ordinance.

Since that time, our staff has approved 40 ADUs, 27 of which were detached units and 13 were internal to existing structures.

Most of these units are in some phase of construction.
