Update July 16
There are 7 short sales near the metro - 6 of them are condo units in Marquis and Acadia, and one is a townhouse in Country Creek. If you have time, you can try and make an offer. With some luck, you may end up buying a property at a low price. However, it is most important to deal with an agent (especially a listing agent) who is an experienced depressed property expert - otherwise, you will just lose time and get frustrated. If you need help, call or email me.
For those who do not have time to waste, there are other properties at a regular sale:
condo units (2 bedroom 2 baths) from $355k to $390k and townhouses from $450k to $630k.
A lot of condo units and townhouses at a short walking distance to the metro are on the market for rent.
Need help? I am just a phone call away.

Before you write an offer, you should know how many banks are involved, how long the current owner has been keeping it for short sale, and many other details. And most importantly, be prepared to wait for 60-90 days before you get a response from the seller's bank... If you want to take a chance, call me. I will help you with the transaction.

Market Update - June 10
With the interest rates going up for more than 1/2 of a discount point, what do we see on the real estate market?
There are 16 properties for sale at walking distance to the Vienna metro. The average number of days before the property is under contract is 15, which is very low. Price range - $250k for a 1 bedroom condominium to $784k for a detached house. The latter is a bank foreclosure. Less than 5 years old 3 level 4 bedroom single family house.
With the gas prices going up and up, proximity to metro is a good alternative for many purchasers. Do not procrastinate. Looks like, interest rates will be going up since the $700bln dollars intended to purchase bonds may not be enough to keep the rates low.

June 3 - Market Update
If you are looking to rent a property at a walking distance to Vienna metro, there is a big choice today: 17 properties! The cheapest is a 1 bedroom condo for $1,400/mo and the most expensive is a townhouse for $3,200/mo. I believe it is best to get help of a realtor to view the rentals since you can see all of these and maybe some at farther locations in one day. And most likely, you will not pay for the service. I sometimes dedicate my time to tenants, too. If you need help, call me at 703-281-1000.
As for sale, we have started to see some short sales and foreclosures around the metro, too. For example, a new listing (detached house!) just came to the market. It is listed for 785k (it is obviously a foreclosure) and it is built in 2004.
There is also a short sale - a townhouse for $350k only. Built in 1986. If you are in no rush, this may be a good deal for you: very low priced, shows well, excellent location and good schools. What is there not to like? Hurry! Interest rates are creeping up, although they are still very low....
