Richmond Real Estate
![]() |
Richmond real estate is divided into 5 zones, with each zone having a distinct feel. Areas 50 and 60 are south of the James River, with wonderful Westover Hills lying in Richmond real estate zone 60. Area 20 (the West End), Area 10 (which includes the Fan and Church Hill), and Area 30 (referred to as "Northside") are north of the James River. All areas experienced depreciation in 2009, but Area 30 was particularly affected by the harsh housing market.

As you move west in the city, prices of homes in Richmond, VA go up substantially, with one property selling for $4.7 million, and another West End home selling at over $394 per square foot.
