About This Home
Why rent when you can own in one of Arlington’s most convenient locations? Typical rents for a 2-bedroom, 1-bath in the area range from $2,650 to $3,200/month—but for around $3,070/month (including condo fees, all utilities, and two parking passes), you could own this beautifully updated condo instead. With preferred lender options offering as little as 0% down, you can start building equity, enjoy potential tax deductions, and take advantage of a more stable monthly cost while rents continue to rise. And for investors? What a great option!
