[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]G Falls is nice, but they not only keep building new homes, but, UGLY new homes.  Meanwhile, there is a glut of existing ones on sale.  If a house sells very quickly, it is because it is priced right to sell quickly.  Also, w delayed start times, if you have a kid that goes to Langley, on a bus, they will spend 1 hour each way.  Same goes if the parent drives them in or picks them up.  [/quote]

I agree. Some of the homes are atrocious. Gold topped columns, gaudy fountains, weird castle style roofs...  Are they mostly foreigners building?

The ones that are sitting are very dated styles where the elderly owners haven't updated since the early 80s. They're offended when realtors tell them it needs updating and think it should sell without any work done. People spending 1.5mill+ don't want fixer uppers with 30 year old kitchen and closed floor plans. [/quote]

This has been sitting for almost two years - new construction - well, two years old now.

Potomac has this beat. How about this nasty Niroo shahs palace wannabee on Chapel rd? http://www.choicerealestate.net/listing/mc8478465/
It hilariously says its been on the market since 2014. The lot was illegally clearcut around 2006. The construction started around 2007. It took them forever to finish it but it went on the market in 2009. It's had a for sale out front since then. They did decide to start selling furniture out of it so at least it gets some traffic. It is a blight on my neighborhood.
