Residential Real Estate

After buying a residential project dropped during the recession, a local homebuilder is getting things moving again in the 55-and-up development.

A local real estate executive’s $2.1 million purchase of a riverside property led the way for last month’s high-dollar home sales. Other properties on the list include a Monument Avenue mansion and several million-dollar homes in the suburbs.

The annual Homearama event kicked off last week, a showcase of nine homes each built and designed by different local firms.

As Henrico County’s supply of developable land decreases, a builder is turning to a large plot near a topped-off landfill for its next project.

Another multimillion-dollar home has hit the market in Manakin-Sabot, this time a 45-acre estate that includes a guest home, tavern, pool and equestrian facilities.

An ongoing development spanning 900 acres in Chesterfield County is churning out hundreds of new home lots in a bounce back from the recession. And a few of those homes will be on display at the upcoming annual Homerama event.

A local developer plans to add a new batch of single-family homes to the East End, targeting first-time buyers with prices below $150,000.

Working on a rare piece of undeveloped land within the city, a developer is beginning site work on the first batch of townhomes set to rise in Forest Hill.

The convicted developer’s grand West End home – now a massive eyesore condemned by the city – is once again scheduled for auction as its owner serves his 16-year sentence.

A recent agreement between a local real estate association and a national listing company helped prevent Richmond-area brokers and agents from seeing their properties go dark on at least two popular websites.
