For what it’s worth, this is the first Revisited that we are seeing that was listed following the election results. Real estate agents in DC these past few weeks are having some interesting conversations. It’s has been a while since we watched mortgage interest rates climb for what is now eight or nine straight weeks, to their highest level in two years.

That said, the DC Council, in addition to the Mayor’s previous recent home buyer incentives announcement, is working on some legislation to lower closing costs for first time buyers in DC. There are logistics to be figured out, but there is a big push to continue to get people with moderate income into home ownership.

I predict a really busy Spring Market. Buyers are expected to try to capture the still historically low mortgage rates, and Sellers hope to sell before prices may respond to the higher cost of monthly payments.

The listing agent for this property was Marvin Lovos with Heymann Realty, LLC. Dylan Hanna with Heymann Realty, LLC assisted the Buyer.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
