March 09, 2010
If you've been reading my blog for some time, live in the Northern Virginia area, or have been contemplating a move here (why haven't you called yet?), chances are you know that McLean, Virginia is one expensive community.
Back in 2008, I wrote Meet McLean, Virginia: The Fourth Most Affluent Community in the U.S. A year later, when McLean took the top rank of wealthiest community in America, I penned (okay, really I typed) "It's a Great Place to Have a Real Estate Office, I Can Tell You That!"
Reading my monthly rundown of the most expensive home sales in Northern Virginia, you'll notice that homes in McLean always make the list. Here's the latest: February 2010's Most Expensive Home Sales in Northern Virginia.
Much of the inventory of homes for sale in McLean are above the million dollar mark and often well above. Almost 2/3 of the McLean homes on the market are listed for sale at $1 million plus. Here's where inventory stood last month: McLean's Million Dollar Market: What's Available?
