People relocating to Northern Virginia often ask what type of home they can purchase in different price ranges. Other people who ask about this include current D.C. and Northern Virginia residents who have not been in the housing market for a while and potential investors from other parts of the country. Northern Virginia provides a wide range of available housing in all price ranges. Condominiums and townhomes are plentiful especially close in to Washington D.C. and these represent desirable options for many buyers who want an easy commute and less home maintenance. Single family homes in Arlington, Alexandria, and most of Fairfax County start at around $400,000. Combining Arlington and Alexandria, Virginia, the $400,000 to $500,000 price range represents just 9% of the available single family home inventory for sale. In Fairfax County, which for the most part is a bit further out from Downtown D.C., this price range represents 23% of all available detached single family homes. Here are some examples of single family homes that you can purchase in Northern Virginia for just under $500,000. ALEXANDRIA
