As the old saying goes, it’s all about “Location, Location, Location“. That can mean many things in real estate . . . like – Do you back to parkland or do you front on a busy road? Are you in the most popular school district or one that isn’t so sought after? But it also means that real estate is HYPER-LOCAL. What is happening in Vienna or Reston may be very different than what is happening in Arlington or Oakton. 

So what are we seeing in the Vienna & Oakton markets this week?

• Inventory is inching up – in both Vienna and Oakton. It appears that Sellers may have been waiting for “Back-To-School” to go on the market.
