			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>This Saturday and Sunday is a perfect reason to go to Centreville ,Virginia! </h2>
<div id="attachment_431" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://lisehowe.com/files/2010/06/Chateau_Morrisette.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-431" title="Chateau_Morrisette" src="http://lisehowe.com/files/2010/06/Chateau_Morrisette.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="151" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Chateau Morrisette, One of Many Fine Virginia Vineyards</p></div>
<p>Nearly 50 of the best Virginia wineries are pouring wine at the Vintage Virginia Wine Festival from 11 am to 6 pm at the Bull Run Regional Park at 7700 Bull Run Drive. At the 29th annual Vintage Virginia you can visit, in one place, these many fine wineries. Participating wineries include Chateau Morrisette, Chrysalis, and Tarara, among others.  <a title="Map of the Festival" href="http://www.vintagevirginia.com/media/VV10WineriesFINAL.pdf" target="_blank">Click here for a map</a> of the participating vineyards and their locations at the festival.   </p>
<p>In its 29th year this event is a cornerstone of the East Coast wine festival season, featuring a one-stop shopping environment for wine collectors and enthusiasts, as well as a unique opportunity to interact with winemakers, movers and shakers, cultivating your own understanding of what makes a quality vintage.</p>
<p>Did you know that Virginia is a modern wine country on the rise? In the 30 years since the cultivation of European wine grapes was introduced to Virginia, the state has become home to over 140 wineries and nearly 3000 acres of vineyards. Virginia is now the 7th largest wine producing region in the US. As any Virginian will tell you, it is a unique wine region whose unparalled beauty, history, and access to the wine making process make it unlike any other in the world. The state&#8217;s 5 distinct wine growing regions produce numerous varieties of wine that are distinctively Virginia.</p>
<p>There even are performers to help you work your way through the wine vendors!  For example, on Saturday you can listen to <strong>Karl Denson&#8217;s Tiny Universe</strong></p>
<p>From a pressure cooker of rhythm, Karl Denson&#8217;s Tiny Universe brings forth the most delicious variety of grooves ever sampled by a listener&#8217;s feet. Led by Karl Denson, who over the past 15 years  has collaborated with such luminaries as Lenny Kravitz, Fred Wesley and The Greyboy Allstars, the Tiny Universe creates a dynamic sound that defies categorization. The band members, Denson on vocals, tenor and alto sax and flute, guitarist Brian Jordan, bassist Chris Stillwell, keyboard player David Veith, trumpet player Chris Littlefield and drummer John Staten, have earned a reputation as kings of the unstoppable all-night show. <a href="http://www.karldenson.com/">www.karldenson.com</a>.</p>
<p>Centreville is a pleasant drive through the Virginia country side, easily accessible from places like <a title="Kenwood Forest home search" href="http://www.kenwood-forest.com/" target="_blank">Kenwood Forest in Bethesda/Chevy Chase</a> or <a title="AU Park home search" href="http://www.auparkonline.com/" target="_blank">American University Park</a>, fondly known as AU Park, in DC.  Just another example of why DC is such a great place to live!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_380" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 170px"><a href="http://lisehowe.com/files/2010/05/soldhands.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-380" title="soldhands" src="http://lisehowe.com/files/2010/05/soldhands.jpg" alt="" width="160" height="106" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Lise Howe Sold Your House! </p></div>
<p>Congratulations! You have a contract on your home! Your agent has done a wonderful job for you, found the buyer of your dreams, gotten you top dollar, and the buyer will even let you stay in the house after settlement for a few days or even a few months! Wow &#8211; how much better can it be? STOP!!!! This is not a dream &#8211; it is the beginning of a nightmare.</p>
<p>When you go to settlement, the buyer is going to ask for an escrow deposit to guarantee that if there are any problems with the house when you move out, that there will be money for the buyer to make the repairs.  Imagine if the moving company knocks a hole in the wall as it is moving your concert grand piano out of your old house.  You have the contract with the moving company &#8211; not the buyer.  The buyer can&#8217;t easily argue with the movers to repair the wall, and you are out of the picture now.  Escrows can be as low as a couple of hundred dollars and as high as five or ten thousand dollars. </p>
<p>If the house is empty before settlement, the buyer comes in for his or her walk through, typically an hour before settlement and on the way to the bank to get the certified check for the remaining funds.  The buyer is psyched and dazed at the prospect that this glorious house is about to become his house and not yours.  The walk through is brief. Does the stove turn on? Does the toilet leak? Are the walls still standing &#8211; great &#8211; check, check, check! Lets get to settlement and buy a house!  </p>
<div id="attachment_381" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 98px"><a href="http://lisehowe.com/files/2010/05/detective.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-381" title="detective" src="http://lisehowe.com/files/2010/05/detective.jpg" alt="" width="88" height="124" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Buyer after settlement</p></div>
<p>If the seller stays in the house after settlement for a few days, then the real walk through is entirely another matter.   The buyer has lots of time to do the walk through &#8211; now he is calm and focused on whether the seller has hurt the buyer&#8217;s new house.  Is there any paint chipped? Are the curtain rods there? What about that spot on the floor? That wasn&#8217;t there at contract ratification!!!!  Oh dear &#8211; the buyer needs $1000 for a new floor!  Does the washing machine rattle with heavy wet towels? Definately that isn&#8217;t working condition!</p>
<p>How is this resolved? First the buyer directs his agent to ask for a portion of the escrow.   The seller is outraged.  That spot on the floor was definately there since Lyndon Johnson was in the White House.  The contract provided that only the blinds conveyed and not the curtain rods!  The washing machine works even if it does shake a little.  No payments!  This goes back and forth for a few days, and finally the title attorney is called in to arbitrate.  Eventually everyone makes nice and life goes back to normal.</p>
<p>As the seller, maybe a rent back or post settlement occupancy is really necessary, but make sure that it truly is necessary &#8211; that it is your only option.  Every post settlement occupancy that I have been involved with this year in <a href="http://kenwood-forest.com">Kenwood Forest </a>has been contentious.  Buyers feel like they are paying alot of money for their new homes and they want to make sure that those homes are in good condition.  The post settlement occupancy gives some buyers a last bite at that apple, a last chance to save a little more money &#8211; at the seller&#8217;s expense.  If you are a seller, just be careful.  Make sure you really need that post settlement occupancy &#8211; and be prepared to really pay for it.</p>
