Greg,

Wayne is right. Given the specs of your home and its proximity to the bridge, there are definitely buyers out there right now. If you have not done so already, your home needs to be on the market no later than early September.

A word to the wise, be prepared for people to ask for closing costs and possibly haggle with price. On the flip side, you may be able to do the same thing while you are buying. Just remember to price your home fairly. A well priced house will sell faster and get you moving up to your next home.

I also work in Gloucester. You can check out some of my Gloucester listings at: http://www.HomeSearchVirginia.com.

Have a great one!

Greg,

I'm finding that there is a market for homes under $250,000 in Gloucester driving by the summer military transfers. That window will be closing soon so you shouldn't delay getting the house on the market.

There are also some very good deals on move-up houses in the Gloucester area.

I'd be glad to meet with you and discuss some flexible options. Check out my site for more details. http://AHouseInGloucester.com

Hi Greg,
Right now you can find 3 active homes in the Gloucester Point/Hayes area with the same features you have given for your house. Days on market are 72, 66 and 32. Average DOM for the Hayes area is pretty much the same as everywhere else 120 days. If your home is priced right and shows well, it will sell.

FIRST ANSWER

I see no one responded to you yet, I am not sure any of the regulars here work in that area. I am in Northern Virginia - near Dulles Airport. So, I can't help you...sorry. But, would you like a referral to an agent in that area? That's Glouchester County, right? I think I know someone... just email me with your contact info: vchrisner@kw.com
