So in my daily pull of Redfin I came across a property at 7301 Pimmit Ct. in Falls Church VA between the West Falls Church Metro and Tysons Corner Center. It has a MLS listing of FX6640385 and might be a nice house to watch as it is priced high for the Pimmit Hills area. I will take a look at it on my way home from work some time over the next few weeks and if it sticks around I will provide an update.
If you don't know about Redfin it only has the best mapping and sorting functionality I have ever come across. Even if you have a Realtor I would recommend using Redfin if only to get an idea of the location and prices for a given area.

The Search Begins
So my New Years resolution for this year is to blog on something I find useful, as I have been following real estate casually since 2004 I think I will dip my toe into that area.
I have come across a number of useful real estate blogs in my searches. I would say 95% of the blogs are from Realtors marketing their services, or telling about how they can get a property sold. I have decided to see if I can find a few properties that looks to be out completely out of market given the financial conditions of the day and see about following their stories.
I am considering starting with 1941 North Culpeper St Arlington VA 22207, it has been on and off the market since 1996 and looks far to small to be usable, and 1911 North Cameron St Arlington VA 22207, as it has been on the market since 2007.
My only sticking point is I really want to see about finding things that comes out this year so I can follow them from the start, instead of doing a lot of historical research.
If I follow land only property it usually has a long story to follow, but if I come across something with a house it might make for a more interesting story to tell. If you stumble across this blog and have a suggestion for an out of market property in the Northern Virginia area leave a comment and I might add it to my search.
