[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love new houses, but the ones they're building in PH are seriously awful. And the remodels are even worse. We toured so many that were frankenstein houses. Garages that didn't connect inside the house (had to walk around even though they were physically connected). [/quote]

Can you point out some of the new ones that are awful? I am very familiar with all of the newer homes in the area and they all seem to be your standard spec builder. As for the remodels there are some pretty bad ones but those aren't really on the market and are usually marketed as teardown.[/quote]

DP here.  Don't know what the finished product looks like but the marketing of this house, which is at the absolute high end of the PH market, is atrocious.

On the other hand, I think this house looks fine, but it's an example of a PH house priced over a million that just sits on the market for months.

The second house is overpriced, that's why it's been sitting.

The first house is too eccentric to sell quickly.  I drive past it every morning and I was shocked to learn it was a house built to sell. From the look and the layout, I assumed it was someone building a house for themselves because the style of that house is too unique for the market, certainly for the PH market.  That house would have taken a long time to sell even in Arlington or McLean, simply because this style is preferred by a minority of buyers. [/quote]

The first house also has a virtually non-existent yard with a deck on back that looks like it was moved from a Toll Brothers Leesburg townhouse. No way for $1.3. [/quote]

Toll brothers deck? I guess you have run out of insults. It's a California style house which is not easy to sell around here. It will stl from around 1.2[/quote]

I drive by it everyday. It has a horrible looking cheap deck overlooking a gulley for a house with that price tag. [/quote]
