1 Sold in Februray (09)

1 property SOLD in February 2009. It doesn't seem like a lot, but it's a lot more than the zero (0) for January 2009. It's also better than the zero (0) for the same month (February) in 2008.

The property that SOLD was a 1 bedroom 1 bathroom with 781 square feet. It was asking $359,900 and sold for $343,000. There was also a $5,000 seller subsidy, or closing cost credit to the buyer, effectively bringing the net purchase price to $338,000. The home was on the market for 122 days. As far as I'm aware it was not a distress sale. In fact I believe the owners were simply moving because they needed more space.

01-25-09 Shirlington Village = Market Snapshot



There have been no SOLD properties of record this year for Shirlington Village, so let's talk about what's available. I have data on 2 units that are available for purchase. There is a one bedroom 2 bathroom with over 1000 square feet that his been on the market for over 150 days. Then there is a one bedroom one bathroom model that has been on the market for just about as long, save a few days. Both are located on the seventh floor.



While there has been 1 property rented this month. It was a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom model that rented for $2,200/month, when asking $2,300. There are two times as many AVAILABLE RENTALS compared to the available sales. So a total of 4 that are available to rent. See the data below, it's a smattering of unit styles. You will notice some similar addresses because the two above that are available for PURCHASE are also available for RENT. In addition to those there are 2 other homes for rent, one on the tenth floor, and one on the eighth floor.
