With the opening of the new Harris Teeter and several new real estate developments, the north end of Old Town Alexandria is suddenly a new and vibrant community. The success of restaurants like A La Lucia and even Haute Dog have started to draw as much attention as more established restaurants along King Street. The Art League's location in Old Town North is another harbinger of culture and tectonic shift that has made this neighborhood so exciting.
A part of that mix is Abingdon Row, which was built just a few years ago as a luxury condo. Abingdon Row is found on N. Royal Street between 1st and 2nd Streets.

Realtors are required to disclose material facts to home buyers. Is a murder or other notorious event a material fact?
Do Realtors have to disclose notorious events that occurred at a property?
Take the case of a salesperson named Roscoe who has a client named Zane. Zane is a long time friend of the family and he listed his luxury condo for sale with Roscoe. Zane's condo is beautiful, immaculately clean and in a nice part of town.
But things get a little complicated from here.
Zane's condo was the site of a widely publicized and grisly murder of a celebrity who lived in Zane's building. The celebrity's body was found in Zane's second bedroom. As a result of the murder, Zane had weeks of bad dreams until finally he moved to a hotel and enlisted Roscoe's services. Roscoe put the condo on the market and shortly there after it sold at open house to Deanna. Deanna thought it was sort of cool to be connected to the celebrity.
Roscoe kept in touch with Deanna through annual calendars and then a few years later when Deanna was ready to move she asked Roscoe to list the property. Roscoe listed the property for sale but he neglected to either disclaim or disclose the murder.
Sally bought the condo and then one night while reading Wikipedia, she finds out that her home was the site of the celebrity's final moments on this earth. Sally uses that room for her nursery.
Since Deanna and Roscoe did not disclose the murder, does Sally have an action against Roscoe, Deanna or for that matter Zane?
In the Commonwealth of Virginia, there is no requirement to disclose (or disclaim) "stigmatizing events".
Stigmatizing events are events which have no physical affect on the property. So, whether the property was the site of a homicide, felony, or suicide, the seller and agent are not required to disclose the event.
A buyer's market is on the rise. Information from both the National Association of Realtors and Owners.com reveals that buyers in {Location_Name} are spending more money on the purchase of their homes than they intended, with one-third of home buyers exceeding their maximum budget by $16,510 on average. The same situation is happening here in Northern Virginia as well. Desirable properties are receiving multiple offers and prices are gradually creeping up, which is all the more reason to contact me and allow me to help you achieve your real estate goals.
As found in a Realtor.com® survey of more than 1,000 home shoppers, many young adults are being pushed towards owning a home due to the increasing rentals costs, with 23 percent of those between the ages of 18 and 34 citing rising rents as a trigger for purchasing a home. Realter.com®'s chief economist Danielle Hale explains that even in the current unique housing market with low inventory and high prices, most shoppers still want some classic features. Older home-buyers desire privacy and the ability to age comfortable while millennials emphasize family needs, stability, and personal expression.
Pet Predicament
Research has shown that owning a pet can help reduce stress levels and make you happier and healthier. However, when it comes to finding the perfect rental owning a pet can add to your stress. It is often difficult to find a property that suits both your lifestyle requirements and is pet friendly.
It is of course a property owner’s right to refuse pets but there are also properties that are just not suitable for certain pets for purely practical reasons. There might be no yard, no fence or steep stairs. Some properties that allow pets do have restrictions on the size of the pets and may discriminate against certain breeds. These are all things that you need to consider when looking for a suitable property.
Remember pets can be disruptive and destructive and it is important that as a pet owner you follow any of the home owner’s rules regarding pets and don’t let your pets run amok and damage the property. Irresponsible pet owners make it hard for responsible pet owners to find good rental properties.
Fortunately there are properties out there that are pet friendly, it just might take a bit of time and research to find them. Your agent is the ideal person to solve your pet predicament and assist you in your search for the perfect pet-friendly property in {Location_Name}. By helping you identify and target suitable properties they can save you time and take the stress out of the search. [Read more about rental agents]
