| OP -- Not sure how broadly in the Langley/McLean catchments you would be looking, but there are typically a fair number of <$1.5M houses that come on the market each spring in the neighborhoody areas of Great Falls (mainly south of Georgetown Pike/west of Walker, but also in the areas north of 7 that are closer to Tysons). Most of those houses had significant bidding wars last year, but hard to predict what the market will look like this year. As a PP wrote, you will get inevitably get more house for your money outside the Beltway. |
| I am not a realtor. But in the areas you are looking, you need to find a good long term realtor in the neighborhoods you are looking at. In our neighborhood, most sales are done without the homes hitting the market. |
Not OP—I like that house! Great screened porch. Needs some updates but 1.25 is reasonable, and you wouldn’t have to do it right away. With inventory so low it might go for more, but I wouldn’t want to pay too much more than that. That’s the trouble with buying this time of year. |
Apparently this home is too popular that no longer accept showing request... also many offers in hand with more coming... |
What? Did it even list? |
Listed yesterday. Today family try to book a showing and got the above response from listing agent. |
| I think that house will go very quickly but the listing agent may have limited viewings per the current owner's request in light of Covid. |
Listing agent said 110 appointments all fully booked...That is a lot in one day |
| I would definitely look at the Mclean hamlet (where I grew up, I’m 33 now and don’t live in the area) and McLean Hunt. Those were amazing neighborhoods to grow up in. They have changed some but with kids, they are awesome and are zoned for Langley. That being said I think you may need to do some updating. |
| Chill people, stuff will come on Feb/mar |
| Since when a 1.2m 50 yr old house became so “cheap “? |
| It won't |
Pending. Can’t wait to see what it went for. |

How about this coming soon for op:
https://www.redfin.com/VA/McLean/6633-Tucker-Ave-22101/home/9402057 I only see worse and worse options for ridiculous price now… so maybe the Greenway Height’s 1.6 tear down was a good deal? Can’t understand this market lol |
It has new windows, it maybe updated inside. |
