A Metropolitan Area The Richmond Metro Region is comprised of the City of Richmond, Virginia and surrounding counties – Chesterfield, Hanover, New Kent and Henrico. A sprawling network of interstates has given rise to growth in business without losing the area’s charm. Whether it’s the top ranked schools, affordable housing, temperate climate or solid economic opportunities, Richmond has the best of both worlds. Like most cities, Richmond contains several distinct areas with their own identifiable look and feel.
 |  | | Fan District |
The Fan Aptly named for its fan-like grid of pedestrian streets, the Fan district contains some of the city’s most desirable real estate and is where you’ll find Monument Avenue. Quietly nestled between Broad and Cary Streets, this area of Richmond is known for its large collection of Victorian townhouses earning it a place on the National Register of Historic Landmarks. Dotted with small cafes, grassy parks and adjacent to the Museum District and Carytown, it is also home to the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University.
 |  | | Museum District |
Carytown / Museum District Home to 20 museums and galleries, the Museum District is located between the Fan and the city’s West End. Historical preservation is of chief importance to the residents of this disrict, which has led to its being named a Federal and State Historic District. Carytown, a residential and commercial mix of real estate located on and around Cary Street, hosts homes dating back to the 1920’s.
 |  | | Luxury Apartments in Shockoe Bottom |
Shockoe Bottom Just east of downtown along the James River, Shockoe Bottom is the hub of the city’s nightlife, restaurants, dining and entertainment. With its original cobblestone streets and Colonial-style brick buildings, this area is also home to Tobacco Row. Loft apartments, condominiums, offices and retail space now reside where the smell of fresh leaf tobacco can still be found lingering in the air. The completion of a floodwall in 1995 was the impetus for a redeveloped riverfront area offering modern amenities such as upscale, open-air shopping malls that pull suburbanites into the city for festivals, cultural pursuits and frequent community events.

Most home purchase agreements have clauses that deal with termites. After the agreement is ratified, a termite inspection is arranged. Before the closing can occur, the sellers must be able to produce papers signed by a licensed exterminator stating that the house is free of infestation and that any termite damage has been repaired.
Before you sign an agreement to buy or sell a home, you should read the termite clause and be sure that you understand it. Who selects the exterminator and pays for the inspection? If bugs are found, who pays for the treatment? Are the sellers obligated to repair any damage and have they placed a limit of the dollar amount they will spend on those repairs? If treatment is required, the buyers may want a chance to discuss the options with the pest control company, especially if someone in the family is sensitive to the chemicals used to control the termites. Ask about the exterminator's guarantees or service contract options.
