Active listings near Arlington County trails

By Carolanne Korolowicz

This regularly scheduled sponsored column is written by Carolanne Korolwicz

As the scorching days of summer come to an end, we welcome days of comfortable temperatures, changing landscapes, and hot coffee. One of the most tranquil ways to celebrate cooler days is to take advantage of the nature trails in Arlington County.

Home to over 15 trails, residents can find these mini escapes within walking distance. West of Arlington may be known for their natural wonders, but nothing beats rolling out of bed, getting shoes on the kids, a leash on the dog and just having to get out the front door.

If being a little closer to wilderness, without the bad wi-fi and commute, is appealing to you, the real estate market has a plethora of homes that make “touching grass” a reality within Arlington’s urban landscape.

Ask Eli: Arlington school ratings and home values

By Eli Tucker

This regularly scheduled sponsored column is written by Eli Tucker, Arlington-based Realtor and Arlington resident. If you would like to work with Eli and his team in Northern Virginia and the greater D.C. Metro area, you can reach him directly at [email protected].

Question: How much of a difference do schools make in the value of homes in Arlington?

Answer: I hope all parents, students, and teachers had a great first week back at school! If you enjoy reading my columns, I would appreciate your vote for top real estate agent in Arlington Magazine’s “Best Of Arlington 2026” poll. Use this link to vote, and don’t forget to include your other favorite local businesses and service providers. These recognitions mean a lot to local businesses.

Nothing drives home values like schools and for most buyers around here, that is based on the ten-point ratings scale on from GreatSchools.org. Let me be clear, this article is not meant to validate or challenge the quality of GreatSchools ratings, rather, it’s an acknowledgement of the weight the website’s ratings has on home buyer decisions and, therefore, home values.

Tips for Using Schools in Your Home Search

  • Families define a “good school” differently. Whether that’s test scores, socioeconomic diversity, language instruction, athletics, or a STEM focus think about what matters most to you and target schools that fit your values.
  • GreatSchools offers more than just a single rating, they offer component data as well. Dig deeper and look at the components of a school’s rating and review them based on what you value.
  • I know parents who have had both excellent and terrible experiences at top and low rated schools alike. The GreatSchools rating is not everything.
  • There are excellent public resources available for research including the Virginia Dept of Education’s School Quality Profiles and information nights for each school where you can see a school and interact with teachers first-hand
  • There are numerous message boards with loads of information about school operations like disability support, college readiness, and athletics
  • There are other private ratings websites like Niche.com and US News and World Report that offer different perspectives and ways of ranking schools
  • Arlington County has an A+ grade from Niche.com, ranking as the #2 school district in Virginia, just behind Falls Church City. Loudoun County ranks #4 and Fairfax County ranks #6 in Virginia, each with an A grade.

Analyzing Arlington Homes by GreatSchools Ratings

If school ratings are an important focus for you, you can use the table below to figure out what the most efficient use of your budget is to maximize your GreatSchools rating per dollar spent. In the table, I calculate the cost per GreatSchools rating point, based on the average price of a 3+ bedroom home in that school boundary.

The data uses sales since January 1 2024 of homes with at least three bedrooms, including condos (condos make up only about 5% of the total sales in this data set). Only neighborhood schools are included in this analysis, not the magnet/option schools.

  • The lowest cost per GreatSchools point elementary schools are Barcroft (7), Glebe (9), and Tuckahoe (9)
  • The lowest cost per GreatSchools point middle school is Gunston (7), followed closely by Kenmore (7)
  • The lowest cost per GreatSchools point high school is Yorktown (9)
  • The most expensive school to buy housing in on a total cost basis is Jamestown Elementary (8), but the most expensive per bedroom is Innovation Elementary (6)
  • The least expensive school to buy housing in on a total cost and price per bedroom basis is Abingdon Elementary (3)
  • Alice West Fleet (6) is the only school with a GS rating over 4 and average home price under $1M
  • Ashlawn Elementary has the most homes sold (158) with 3+ bedrooms since 2024 and Hoffman-Boston has the least (44)
  • It costs about 60% more to buy a 3+ bedroom homes in Arlington’s highest rated high school boundary (Yorktown, 9) compared to its lowest rated high school boundary (Wakefield, 4). The Wakefield HS boundary is the only high school market with an average sold price of a 3+ bedroom home under $1M.

Dear lawyers and law students: We’re hiring!

By James Montana

This sponsored column is by Law Office of James Montana PLLC. All questions about it should be directed to James Montana, Esq., Janice Chen, Esq., and Taryn Druge, Esq., practicing attorneys at The Law Office of James Montana PLLC, an immigration-focused law firm located in Falls Church, Virginia. The legal information given here is general in nature. If you want legal advice, contact us for an appointment.

Our little law office is hiring for two positions: Attorney and Legal Intern (Fall Semester). The details and tips on how to apply are below, in Q&A style.

Do you want to send out lots of wax-sealed letters to clients? Apply now!

Q: Hiring, eh? How much cash on the barrel?

A: Depends on the position. The Attorney position comes with a starting salary of $75,000, with guaranteed bonuses if you meet fairly achievable revenue targets. Those bonuses are $20,000 and $25,000, respectively, so the range of compensation is $75,000 – $120,000 per year. The Law Clerk position is paid hourly, and the amount depends on your background. (Certain local law schools won’t give you class credit if we pay you. We prefer to pay you, but we can forgo paying you if that’s what you need.)

Q: What? I thought that lawyers dove into piles of gold coins all day, like Scrooge McDuck!

A: It depends. On Wall Street, we are reliably informed that big law firm partners can make more than $15,000,000 per year – more than the bankers who pay them! Immigration lawyers are much more modestly compensated.

Q: Why should I work for you? ICE pays a $50K starting bonus and I want to deport illegals with my absolute boys!

A: We offer great benefits and a wonderful place to work.

Generous Benefits
We offer extremely generous benefits – better than every local nonprofit, including paid parental leave, 70% of health insurance / vision / dental covered from your first day on, FSA, retirement plan with a generous match – you name it, we offer it!

Easy Commute
Commuting into DC is for masochists. Working here isn’t. Our beautiful old office, built in 1870, is in the heart of Falls Church. We have plenty of free parking and a verdant, wooded landscape around our building.

Helping People in Need
Our clients come from all walks of life. Some come from vulnerable circumstances. You’ll work with them, and you’ll make a huge difference for them.

Collegial Environment
We pride ourselves doing cases one at a time. You won’t be forced to take cases. Instead, you’ll evaluate cases on your own, and build your own docket within the firm based on your own capacity and interests. We offer both independence and mentorship for new lawyers.

Q: Do you offer Work from Home?

A: No. Why? Because, as noted, we work with many people who come from vulnerable circumstances. These clients are best served by meeting with you in person. We are unwilling to compromise on this point, because, shorn of the verbiage, WFH means telling poor people to go pound sand.

Q: You don’t sound fun.

A: But in reality, I’m actually very fun, relaxed, and easy-going.

Q: How do I apply?

A: Email James at [email protected]. Send a CV and a cover letter.

Q: What are the requirements for each position?

A: For Attorney, we require a bar license and a JD. We’re happy to hire new lawyers. Spanish fluency is a big plus. Immigration experience is, of course, a plus too.

A(2): For Legal Intern, we require that you be enrolled at a local law school. That’s it! We’re here to help with your education and pay you a decent wage.

Questions about the jobs? Ask in the comments. We’ll respond, just like we always do.

Why first-time buyers should be looking at Arlington condos right now

By Val Connolly

This recurring Real Estate feature is sponsored by The Eli Residential Team. Their mission is to guide, educate, and advocate for their clients through real advice, hands-on support, and personalized service. This week’s post is written by Val Connolly

If you’re a first-time homebuyer in Arlington, now’s a great time to look at condos. The condo market is a little softer right now, which means prices are more affordable and that’s an opportunity to get in before it heats back up.

Most condos are turn-key, meaning you can move right in without spending extra on renovations. They’re virtually maintenance-free (no mowing lawns or fixing roofs), in walkable neighborhoods with great restaurants, coffee shops, and easy Metro access, and they often come with perks like gyms, pools, or parking. Monthly fees usually cover water, trash, and building upkeep, so expenses stay predictable.

Many Arlington condos perfect for first-time buyers are priced around $450,000-$500,000. With today’s interest rates, that could mean a monthly payment (including condo fee, taxes, and insurance) in the $2,700-$3,200 range, often comparable to renting a similar space.

1/9

My top condo picks in Arlington
Here are some active listings that I think are great buys right now for first-time homeowners:

If you’ve been thinking about buying your first home, this is the moment to explore your options. I’m happy to walk you through the process, explain condo fees, and help you find the perfect turn-key place to call home. If you have any questions about these listings or want to explore buying or selling in Arlington, feel free to reach out to Val Connolly.

Ask Eli: Is now the time to buy a DC condo?

By Eli Tucker

This regularly scheduled sponsored column is written by Eli Tucker, Arlington-based Realtor and Arlington resident. If you would like to work with Eli and his team in Northern Virginia and the greater D.C. Metro area, you can reach him directly at [email protected].

Question: Is it a good time to buy a condo in Washington DC?

Answer: Unless you think that the Washington DC economy is heading for a death spiral, it could be a great time to acquire excellent value in the DC condo market.

Asking Prices Are Lowest in 10+ Years

The average asking price of condos listed for sale in July was lower than it’s been at any time in the past ten years. In July 2025, DC condos were listed for an average price of $552,000. Prior to this summer, the lowest average monthly asking price for a DC condo over the past ten years was in August 2016 at $583,000, 5.6% higher than July 2025 asking prices.

The narrative improves slightly using median price, with a July 2025 median asking price of $450,000 compared to an August 2015 median asking price of $435,000.

In either case, average or median pricing, the data suggests buyers can buy DC condos at prices similar to 10+ years ago.

A graph of a number of yellow lines AI-generated content may be incorrect.

Buyers Have Nearly 3x More Options to Choose From

Buyers in DC will find nearly 3x more condos being offered for sale than the market has averaged over the past ten years, which means more opportunity to find the right property and find a seller ready to strike a great deal.

A graph with orange lines AI-generated content may be incorrect.

High Days on Market = Significant Buyer Leverage

The longer a property sits on the market, the more leverage buyers have to negotiate the price. The chart below shows the average sold price relative to the original asking price based on how long a property was on the market before going under contract, in Washington DC.

Homes that sell within the first ten days average above asking price. Once a home has been on the market for 30 days, buyers pick-up significant leverage, with an average of 5.7% and 7.6% off the original asking price for homes on the market 31-60 days and 61-90 days, respectively.

If you want to understand just how much leverage buyers have on DC condos right now, the days on market data tells the story:

· As of Monday August 18, there were 1,224 condos for sale in Washington DC

· Of those condos, the average time on market is 113 days and median time on market 82 days

· 996 (81.4%) have been on the market for 30+ days and 506 (41.3%) have been on the market for 100+ days

A graph of different colored bars AI-generated content may be incorrect.

Don’t Get Blindsided by DC’s Tenant-Landlord Laws

Washington DC is a very tenant-friendly jurisdiction and it’s important that you understand the requirements and limitations placed on landlords in DC if you plan to invest and rent property in the District. I’m far from an expert on DC tenant-landlord laws and property management, but highly recommend connecting with my colleague, Michael Hangemanole, if you have any questions or need Property Management/Rental services in Washington DC. He can be reached on his cell at (240) 483-7255 or by email at [email protected], and is more than happy to talk to any readers about DC property management, the rental market, and landlord-tenant laws.

10 homes that should have sold by now

By Jean Ropp

This regularly scheduled sponsored column is written by Jean Ropp

In today’s real estate market, I’ve noticed some great listings that, in another season, would have sparked bidding wars and disappeared in a weekend. They’ve got all the essentials buyers appreciate, location, charm, thoughtful updates, and value; but here we are in a more balanced moment, where buyers have a little more breathing room and sellers have to wait just a touch longer for the right match. The silver lining? It creates an opportunity for buyers to score homes that should have been gone by now.

This week, I’m highlighting a few of these standout homes. They’ve been nicely maintained and smartly prepared for the market. For anyone who’s been waiting for unique buyer opportunities, these listings could deserve a look.
