One of Charlottesville’s perks
Recently, Wintergreen Resort received not one but two accolades about their wonderful amenities. Most know the resort, which is just 45 minutes from Charlottesville, as a wonderful place to ski and hike. Because of this, it will come as no surprise that Wintergreen was once again named one of the best places to ski on the east coast. What folks don’t know is Wintergreen is truly a four season vacation spot with golf, tennis, fishing, and hiking joining skiing as favorite activities. This was confirmed last week when Wintergreen’s summer tennis camp was named one of the Top Ten in the country. These are just a couple of reasons why folks enjoy the resort on day trips, weekend/vacation getaways, or buying a second/retirement home. Visit www.wintergreenresort.com to learn more.
Market Signs of improvement
Like daffodils and crocus’ are a sign that spring is upon us, so are multiple contract offers an indication that there is an uptick in the real estate market. Although Central Virginia April solds were down significantly compared to 2007, we have seen an increase in multiple offers on the same property. It may not mean anything but hopefully it is a sign that sellers are getting more realistic with their pricing and with that happening, buyers are ready to buy.
