What $500,000 Can Get You in Northern Virginia Real Estate

3347 S. Wakefield Street #B1 (via Google Maps)

In the past couple of months, we’ve highlighted what $1 million and $750,000 can afford you in real estate around Northern Virginia. For each roundup, we showcased recently sold single-family homes.

This month, we’re taking a look at what $500,000 can get you. However, as you may have guessed, finding a single-family home that’s sold for $500,000 in Arlington is a bit unrealistic these days. Instead, we’ll focus on condos sold in the past three months. It’s worth noting these prices do not include condo fees.

We’ll start here in Arlington and work our way to other parts of the area.
