These past few years, the housing market has taken a beating from the economy. It was nearly impossible to sell your house without meeting your price expectation for your home. People were being force to sell their homes because they could not keep up with their mortgage payments and in that scramble, had to sell their homes well below their asking price. In the past year or so, the market has bounced back and now the housing market is thriving. The District of Columbia is a prime example of a prosperous location.

Washington D.C. has showed a recent decrease in the amount of foreclosure rates which indicates that the market is recovering. Recent reports denote that there a plethora of people who are still looking for homes to buy. This means that most homes will get multiple offers from buyers. This increase of competition has moved the market slowly towards the domination sellers once again. Single family homes that include three or more bedrooms are being swiftly bought out by emerging families.
The prices of homes in the D.C. area have decreased 1.2% in a year. Although it is not equal to the national average, this trend is healthy. But now, buyers are concentrating on looking for listings in neighborhoods such as Dupont Circle, Capitol Hill, and Logan Circle because of their popularity and their location. Houses in these section range from $600,000 to well over $10 million.

The reason for the popularity of the D.C. real estate is due to the location. Owning a property in or around the D.C. is beneficial because of:
- The prospects of employment from government sectors
- Reagan National Airport is located in the heart of D.C.
- Proximity of highways such as 395
- Educational institutions such as George Washington University and Georgetown are located around the D.C. area

If you are thinking about investing in a property in the District, it would be fiscally sound if you were to do so. Now that the housing market has been revamped, now is a great time to buy a home. And when it’s time to buy a home, remember to call Title One settlement Group for the best title insurance in the D.C area!

For those who are selling a home, improving the curb appeal of that home may be one of the best decisions to increase its value and interest amongst potential buyers.

Before you begin making changes, the first step you have to take is asking questions to yourself. Put yourself in the potential buyer’s shoes and answer the following questions honestly and confidently so you can move on and make the appropriate changes to increase your home’s value.

1. Is the landscape surrounding the house well maintained and presentable?
2. What are the best and worst exterior features of the home and can they be improved?
3. Are there any obvious items or decorations on the exterior or yard that are hazardous or an eyesore? (ex. bad paint job, dangerous cliff with no fence.)

After you answer these questions, more likely than not, you will have some work to do before you put your property on the market and start holding open houses. Remember that all this effort and work will pay off in the end. Be sure to take before and after pictures so you can analyze what you have done and adjust the price accordingly. More tips to improving the curb appeal include installing decorative lighting, adding to your landscape by planting various trees and flowers, and making sure the grass is cut and there are no cracks in the driveway.
Although some of these tasks seem time consuming and expensive, the end result is worth it. Studies have shown that improving the curb appeal of your home really does work.

Important Decisions

Whether it is your first time buying a home or if you are an experienced home buyer one thing remains for sure, the papers that you sign are very important. Similar to signing a contract for a job, signing housing agreements solidify responsibility and understanding of the property rights displayed in the statement. Like anything, if you do not know what you are signing, that you could end up in a lot of trouble. It doesn’t matter who you are, if you don’t fully understand the legality and validity of the properties title, you may lose perhaps the most important purchase of your lifetime.
