A place to seek renters and rentals in Northern Virginia. This is primarily focused for the areas around Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax County, Falls Church, Loudoun County, Manassas, Manassas Park, and Prince William County.

Figured I would make a sub for people to place ads for wanting/having space to Rent.

This is strictly for Northern Virginia and maybe some of the surrounding areas.

Looking for a new place to live around Arlington this month.

Current roommates decided to tell me today they're moving out at the end of the month, so now I need to find somewhere new. I don't smoke or have any pets and I like keeping things clean. I can do about $800 a month in rent. So if anyone's got an extra room and would like a quiet roommate, let me know!

Looking for a roommate, Fairfax County. [Fairfax]

Hi, 28 male here. I have a room available starting 2/2/2025 in Fairfax, near Fair Oaks Mall (willing to share exact location via DM). It is a 2bed/2bath apartment, so you would have a private bedroom and private bathroom. 2nd floor walk up with 2 balconies. In unit laundry and nice kitchen. I have some furniture, but you would need a bed for your room at minimum.

Rent about 1400 per month including some utilities. After internet and remaining utilities it is about 1450 per person. Lease goes until mid-August, but would be willing to be flexible on dates and extending if we're a good match.

Quick about me; I'm an attorney working in Vienna, so normal business hours are 9-5. I enjoy swimming, board games, and various TV shows. No pets currently, but pets are welcome.

Are you my new roommate? I'm looking for the right person. - Sterling, VA

I'm looking to share my house with a roommate. I've been in this townhouse for a decade. The property is located close to Loudon One ( great shopping, restaurants and Alamo Drafthouse), Dulles mall and Great Falls park. It is a 10 min drive to Leesburg and 35 mins to downtown DC. Nice neighborhood with virtually no crime. That said ⁹I work in government security, so I have a great in-house security system. Trails to hike and very little noise.

The renter would get a private room, a private office, and a parking space. Shared kitchen and use of the living room. Spacious deck with grill on the second floor and a small backyard. The house is fully furnished ( other than the renters office and bedroom), and the renter is welcome to use anything in it. A dog or cat is ok as long as it's well behaved. Rent is 1250 a month with utilities split. Utilities are normally between 150-250 a month, depending on the time of year. Lawn must be remulched once a year, which normally runs 200 from each renter. Renter will need to sign a one year lease upon approval.

I'm quiet and very laid back. To be honest, you may go weeks or months without seeing me. I keep the house tidy, but I work a lot and keep to myself. Because this is a roommate arrangement, I will be interviewing to make sure that the person who moves in is a good fit. This isn't first come, first serve, and I will move forward when I find the right person. Income requiments are strict, and acceptions can not be made.

Rental search in Manassas area, Chantilly, Centreville, and Fairfax area

Hello,

My name is Juhianna! I am in search of a roommate or two to share a rental space with me. I just graduated with my master's in Washington, D.C., and I will be starting a new job in Manassas, Virginia, that is full-time and in-person. I am exploring townhomes, apartments, and house spaces to rent for at least a year. I'd want to live in the Manassas area, Chantilly, Centreville, and Fairfax area since they are quite close to my job location. I want to move in somewhere mid-to-late February or the 1st of March. I'd like to bring my one cat along, who is trained and spayed. My rental budget range is $800-1000.

A little about me:

I just turned 25 years old. I am usually up for anything. I love to explore new places and stay active either solo or with friends. I enjoy nature-related activities and visiting historical places. In my downtime, I play my Switch Lite, read, watch shows/movies, or nap lol. I also love to cook, shop, garden, workout, listen to all sorts of music, and check out restaurants or bars. Message me or comment if you'd like to chat!

Seeking affordable apartments in the Sterling/Herndon area

I'm looking for affordable apartments in the Sterling/Herndon area to get an idea of potential costs/locations if I were to move there. What are the names of apartment complexes offering 1BR/studio max. $1200/mo or 2BR max $2500/mo.? Not necessarily looking for any fancy luxury apartment--just getting an idea of places to check out. I did a basic Google search and found a found a few. I'm mainly wondering if there are any lesser-known complexes (not typically found online) that I should look into. Anything helps. Thank you!

Orchard Glen Apartments

Hello all! Can anyone tell me their recent experience (within 5ish years) in Orchard Glen apartments in PWC? I've been going through reviews but most are a decade old. Had a look at the place and overall doesn't seem bad, but some of the older reviews got me worried. Main concerns are some of the review mentioned bug/rodent problems and if that's the case I'd rather just save my money. Also read some issues with maintenance and staff, but haven't had any problems yet. Maybe it's a new staff or just haven't moved in yet to really tell. Overall is it a safe place to live and am I gonna have to worry about any roaches/mice?

Looking for LGBT friendly roommate (May-June move in)

I’m a 30(s) trans man working full time in mental healthcare seeking a roommate to split an apartment with. My budget is $1100 for myself and ideally a roommate would have a comparable budget so that we could get a decent place.

I don’t have a gender preference for roommates, I just need someone that will be respectful of me and any shared living spaces. I have one cat who is shy but gets along with others. I’m not picky about location as long it’s still a roughly 45 minute commute to Vienna where I work.

Thanks!

Looking for a two bedroom apartment or townhouse with a roommate/room to rent. Budget is $1,300-$1,500. (Arlington)

This is for my friend. She's new to Reddit so I'm trying to help her out. Her move out date is March 18th, maybe sooner if she finds something that fits. She also doesn't care if it's a room to rent or a roommate as long as she has a place to stay when she has to move out.

Thanks!

Prosperity Flats / Dwell Vienna Metro / Fair Chase - Which to go with?

I’m a nova native who is currently overpaying for an apartment in Arlington. I’m looking to move out to Fairfax and have limited the options to the apartments listed in the title.

Prosperity flats seems to be recommended a lot, but the price isn’t that much lower than what I’m paying now.

Not too familiar with the others but they also seem very decent.

Was hoping any of you have recommendations or feedback on the above listed apartment complexes, would be greatly appreciated!

Looking for Private Room/Renovated Basement 4/1/25

Hey there! I am currently riding out a lease in an apartment in College Park, MD but I work in Reston and would like to move closer so I am looking everywhere between Arlington and Manassas/Centreville but my biggest thing is just being on that side of the Potomac due to beltway traffic. I am open to (Male) roommates, but I am a private person myself, a little about me:

-Male, from New Orleans but been all over, turning 26 in less than a month

-Army Veteran, currently working in IT Operations/Contracting for a small business on a hybrid schedule (3 days in, 2 days out) and can provide verification of income

-Have a large-breed dog (Big ask, I know but figured it wouldnt hurt to see whats out there - Goldendoodle, 2+ yrs old, no shedding, potty trained and lovely to have around, can also provide all shot records)

-Have rented for 6 years and can provide rental history and references, budget is $1500/month for a shared space with a private room, negotiable for private rentals upon my inspection of photos and/or the property itself.

-Last but not least, I have AT LEAST a 1bdr of furniture and equipment like tvs, desktop, etc. so looking for not-furnished to very lightly-furnished

Overall just exploring options while I have some time and seeing what is out there. Thank you for any leads, and any pointers on where else to make a post like this or what to look out for would be helpful as well!

Beautifully Renovated 2BR Condo (Arlington)

Hi All,

I am looking for either a roommate for a room share or a tenant/tenants to rent out a 2BR/2BA condo (1,232 square feet) that I am renovating currently. It is at Carlyle House off Columbia Pike in Arlington, VA near Bailey's Crosswords. I (35M) am a licensed Realtor, property manager and investor. I'm not home that often and if I do remote work from home (I usually telework at cafes), I'd be in my bedroom at my desk. Hobbies include gym, traveling, video games, modding my BMW(s) and going out to dinner or with friends from time to time when my schedule permits.

Renovations will include:

  • brand new engineered wood flooring throughout (no carpet)
  • divising wall knocked down to open up kitchen
  • white kitchen cabinets
  • quartz counters
  • stainless steel kitchen appliances including new dishwasher and microwave (stove and fridge are newer as well)
  • brand new full-sized front-loaded washer/dryer
  • new baseboard, trim and 3 layers of fresh paint
  • new European style toilets
  • LED sidelit mirrors in both bathrooms
  • tubs reglazed
  • new light fixtures and outlet covers
  • two new bathroom vanities

Unit is very open and spacious. Has a large balcony with large floor-to-ceiling windows and 3 sets of sliding glass doors (one in the living room and one in each bedroom). Both bedrooms have a lot of space (enough for king beds). Unit has tons of closet space including a kitchen pantry and breakfast bar area. Unit is south facing and gets tons of natural light. Community has an outdoor pool, secure-access with front desk, fitness center, etc.

Garage parking is available. I will cover the entire $850 condo fee, which includes all utilities except electricity and internet/cable.

Fair market value is easily around $3,000/month for a unit of this quality. Looking for someone who will split the rent ($1,500) plus pay an additional flat fee for utilities (negotiable). If you would like a garage space, we can add an extra $150 to base rent. Unit will be available to tour within a week or two. Please reach out if you'd like to set up an in-person viewing.

If/when I decide to list on MLS, I will have professional photos done. But for now, I wanted to out a feeler out to see if anyone would be interested.

Let me know if you have any questions or interest!

Sublet - Private room and bath available in 2BD/2BA condo (Falls Church, VA) $1150/month (negotiable)

Hi Everyone! I'm currently living in a 2BD/2BA condo in Falls Church, VA. My current roommate will be moving out this month so I am looking for a female roommate for the remainder of the lease term (now - end of July this year). The rent is $1150/month with utilities which average out to $80-100/month (willing to negotiate) There is free parking at the condo. No pets please, sorry!

The condo is very cozy with a lot of natural light and skylights. There is also a loft area upstairs and a small balcony overlooking a lake/walking trail. The location is great as it's close to the major highway entrances and public transit.A bit more about the condo:

  • Room: The room is the second bedroom in the condo and has a window with a closet. The bathroom is not attached but located right next to the bedroom.
  • Location: The condo is in a small neighborhood close to Merrifield and the Dunn Loring metro stop (Orange line)
  • Furnishing: The common area and bathtoom are furnished but the bedroom is empty. There is in-unit washer and dryer.
  • Me: I'm 24 and work in biotech with a hybrid schedule. I'm generally a clean person and am respectful of shared spaces! I'd love to be friends with my roommate but i'm also okay with someone who likes to keep to themselves. I love travel, cooking, reading, spending time with friends, trying new restaurants, and going out occasionally! 
  • There is opportunity for lease renewal if you'd like

Please message me if you're interested!
