Additionally, noticing similar drops in Oakton. I thought these were coveted areas?


It makes sense that they dropped the price based on the sale price of the home next door.

Sucks for both sellers in this case!

Same. We are near Wolf Trap.


are your homes in the $2m plus range?


Under $2M are selling. A lot of homes in Vienna priced between $2M - $2.5M are harder to move.

Houses in my $1-$1.5M Vienna neighborhood are selling quickly. I’m surprised, I’d have thought the current political climate would’ve slowed things down.

Based on feedback was probably overpriced and the seller/agent acted accordingly.

101 pictures is excessive. Unless it’s the Biltmore mansion or something, it makes no sense to start with 20+ photos of the exterior taken from every last angle.

Market leveled off so the home above is priced closer to the peak from spring 2024, likely still a bit inflated. I think it will close just above $2m or even just below it. In case you been in a cave with zero communications, there is much political and economic instability. Buyers are nervous, conservative


+1. No doubt pricing on downward trajectory after Jan 1 of this year. Price reduction across the board and more pronounced over $2m

It's actually still a seller's market. There is more inventory, but it's still much harder for buyers than sellers. This house, in particular, might not have been priced right to begin with.

Maybe they got feedback that they were pushing it too much. It might sell quickly once it’s priced right. There’s a house near it for 2.2 but it’s 1000 SF larger.

It's a buyers market now with more homes on sale then buyers. In the listing above, IMO the open house probably didn't go that well and the buyer decided to not wait and dropped the price.
