Market Comment

Happy Tuesday!  Sending over some incredible rates for you and your clients!  Take a look...This morning's economic data brought slight worsening to the market, but you have to admit, these rates are pretty phenomenal! 

  Also, are you having any issues with property flipping?  FHA requires 90 days of title seasoning.  Some conventional programs allow quick re-sales provided the increase in value is justified.  VA remains the same without an issue.  If you have any scenario specific questions, please feel free to ask.

The Real Estate Group

My name is Jeff Nelson, a realtor with The Real Estate Group of Chesapeake, Va.  HomesandFood.com is not a huge corporate site but simply a website created by my wife and I because we have a love for all things that have to do with homes and food (imagine that!).  We have spent thousands of hours developing a place where consumers can gather loads of information about our area, real estate, where we live, and what we eat, all in one place.  I was born in Norfolk and raised in Virginia Beach, so I have a very personal feel for the surrounding area and all that it has to offer.   If you are a potential real estate seller or buyer, you should know that you will have my undivided attention and will always look out for your best interest.  I can guarantee you that the real estate portion of HomesandFood.com is the most detailed and comprehensive in the area. We are constantly on the look out for more information that we can give potential clients, in hopes that they will entrust us with their business.  We want your business very much and are willing to earn it.  Please contact me for all of your real estate needs.  757-749-1616  or jeff@homesandfood.com
