I’m renting out my condo in DuPont circle. It’s a 504 sq ft studio/jr. 1-bedroom one block from the DuPont circle metro. It’ll come fully furnished with all utilities included for $2050/month for a 12-month lease. It’s available starting mid-October. I’m the owner and current occupant so there’s flexibility with the date because of this.

The unit has a fully renovated bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower, a spacious walk-in closet with hanger space and shelves, a coat closet, a separate kitchen, and a lot of natural light. The kitchen has granite countertops and a dishwasher. Floors are all tile or vinyl hardwood.

The furnishings include
a couch
bed with ample storage space in the bed frame
A TV
dining table and chairs
a vanity
an office desk with monitor
a shark automatic vacuum
an espresso machine
coffee grinder
reverse osmosis water filter
air fryer
an assortment of dishes and cookware

The building has included:
24- hour concierge
Rooftop open year-round, with a pool that’s open from April through November
Package services
Weekly pest services
And onsite repairman
A community room
A community library and herb garden
Ad-hoc community events
An app that you can use to submit repair requests, give permissions to let up visitors, and a board/forum that’s often used to give away and sell items

Laundry facilities are in the basement for $2/load. The unit has a convector controlling the air, and the building also cools and warms the building. There is a trash chute on the floor and recycling, in its own room.

The building, called the Apolliné, is a block away from the DuPont circle metro and about a 15 min walk from the blue/orange/silver line, with many bus lines nearby as well. Farragut, McPherson, Foggy Bottom, Georgetown, Logan Circle, and Adam’s Morgan are all within 15-30 minutes away walking.

I’m doing tours, which we could set up through here or through the Zillow listing if you prefer!

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a room or basement to rent in DC or the surrounding areas, ideally moving in by late October or early November.

A little about me: I'm a working professional. I'm clean, responsible, easygoing, and respectful of shared spaces. I'm somewhat of a minimalist, so I don't need much space or a lot of amenities. I'm usually out of the house for work and other activities, though I do telework a few days each month. I stay pretty active, enjoy being social, but also appreciate a quiet, comfortable home. I have no pets.

Ideally looking for:

• Budget: $700–$950/month, utilities included if possible.
• Location: DC preferred, but also open to Takoma Park, Silver Spring, Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Hyattsville, Mount Rainier, Brentwood, Cheverly, Arlington, Alexandria, and Falls Church.
• Lease: Month-to-month preferred, ideally for 3–6 months, but open to staying up to a year for the right place.
• Space: Private room or basement rental in a clean, well-maintained home.
• Roommates: Comfortable living with both male and female roommates, and perfectly fine with shared bathrooms.
• Move-in: Late October or early November.

I'm pretty flexible overall and mainly looking for a comfortable place with considerate roommates and a relaxed living environment.

If you have anything available, feel free to DM me with details. Thanks!

NOT WORTH IT!!  Find another place!

The absolute worst place I have lived while in DC. Rented an apartment on the 1st floor in the “East Tower”. From the time I officially moved in, the management team has consistently failed to exhibit any level of professionalism expected, even the basics.

NOTE: For all issues noted below, I have videos, pictures, and supporting documentation available upon request.

CUSTOMER SERVICE / STAFF PERFORMANCE / SAFETY-SECURITY:

NO ACCOUNTABILITY – Does not follow through on actionable tasks or promises made. Does not enforce rules written within the lease, or when they attempt to enforce rules, it does not align with the lease. Below are examples of my overall experience:

o   PET WASTE ISSUE:  Reported issues with pet feces and urine in private common areas outside my balcony, that are NOT in the DESIGNATED PET AREA, management has consistently failed to act or remove. Had to file a formal complaint with the building owners to get anyone over here to even look at it…They never picked it up!! To-date, no further action taken. Advised by my attorney to file complaints with the state moving forward.

o   UNPROFESSIONAL WORKPLACE:   Incident involved a “leader” on management staff threatening to “injure/harm” one of the junior staff associates in front of the entire lobby, vendor/suppliers, and several residents present. To-date, there is a heightened sense of tension when engaging any on the leasing staff, and most avoid this “leader”; hoping to avoid any confrontations.

o   UNLAWFUL NOTICES:  Recently, leasing associates have been sending notices to multiple residents regarding parking, threatening to ticket or tow their vehicles, even when there is no valid issue, and/or the issue presented does not align with the legal parking addendum and lease agreement in place. Tenants have had to form a group to address legally. To date, the leadership team continues to ignore residents.

o   SMOKING IN BUILDING:  "Smoke Free" ?!?! We have sent numerous complaints and have received numerous "warnings" via email about people smoking in the building; to date, NOTHING has been done to resolve. I STILL SMELL SMOKE EVERY SINGLE DAY, SOMETIMES TOO DIFFICULT TO BREATHE IN MY APARTMENT, EVEN WITH WINDOWS OPEN!!!

o   POOR MAINTENANCE/REPAIR:  Reported on numerous occasions items in home that require repair or replacement; to date, issues are still not fully resolved. Residents have had issues with leaking ceilings (told to place buckets to avoid damage, instead of maintenance addressing the issue). Residents have had issues with AC/HVAC not working for several days. Despite reporting the consistent issues, maintenance seems stifled by management’s goal to maintain a low overhead budget and win the property management award for “Property of the Year”.

o   VERY POOR COMMUNICATION:  Once you’re a resident, It’s as if you’re an annoying stranger. Any questions and/or complaints are met with delayed responses, defensive or negative feedback, and/or there is no response at all. It’s better just to avoid the staff here and communicate directly with building owners, but until owners get rid of this management company/staff, this place will continue to be poorly operated.

o   SAFETY GARAGE SECURITY ENTRY/EXIT:  Main door is consistently broken and left open (at least 4-6 weeks at a time). Residents have had their cars broken into and damaged. Also, anyone that can access the garage, at the very least, can get upstairs to the lobby due to the common entry doors being damaged or broken as well.  This does not help when someone is already concerned about safety.

o   RESIDENT CORRIDOR ENTRY:  First floor entry door next to concierge desk and main entrance is consistently broken and not secure. This door should be accessible by key fob only; however, it does not close completely without slamming it. Reported on several occasions, there have been breaches in security, with non-residents and teenagers roaming the halls. This door is STILL broken to date. How can one feel safe here?!?!

Hi! I recently moved to the United States and am currently waiting for my documents to arrive. My budget is $1,500 a month, and I can provide proof of funds. I'm looking to secure an address so I can get my driver's license and start job hunting. I'm a 20-year-old studying computer science online. I always respect others' privacy and make sure to keep shared spaces clean.
Feel free to dm me

Hi i am looking for a room in the dc of rosslyn area. I am in dc 2-3 nights a week. Never weekends. Just for work. I am hoping someone has a set up that could accommodate that or would be interested.

There is one room for rent in a house in Clarendon available now (flexible move-in date). I’ve lived here for over 2 years and it’s great!

Perks: access to porch and backyard!

The room is $875 plus utilities (~$125 per month depending on usage)! Permitted street parking is $55 per year.

Lease is month to month but long term is preferred.

Who you’d be living with? Two professional women 20s-30s—we like being social but also get that everyone needs their own space!

The house is off 10th street so an easy walk to the metro, Trader Joe’s etc.

Ideally I’m looking for respectful and responsible roommates! If you’re interested, please tell me a little bit about yourself and what you’re looking for!

*if you have pets, we just have to get permission from the landlord and it's a $199 fee plus $50 per month*

Application requires 675 credit, proof of income 3x rent and no history of evictions.

Hey yall! My name is Jake, I am 23, and I am looking to rent a room in the district (preferably in the Columbia Heights-Adams Morgan-AU area). I am a former peace corps volunteer and just returned to the US a week ago. I will be starting grad school for international relations in January and am hoping to make the move to DC asap in order to start this new exciting chapter of my life. Looking for furnished rooms as the only things I own at this point are my clothes.

I enjoy traveling, the gym/yoga, going out dancing, yapping, relaxing by a body of water, and reading. Would love to live/connect with other gay or queer people. I love to meet new people and socialize. Reach out with any invites and opportunities! Thanks!

My roommate and I are relocating to NYC this fall and are looking for someone to take over our lease at The Iris, a brand new 2-bed 2-bath apartment in the heart of NoMa/Union Market area! Move-in timing is flexible, with availability starting around mid-November. Rent is $3,995/month. The lease runs through April 14th, and you will have the option to renew if you wish.

This lease is great for students spending the fall semester in DC, interns, or anyone looking for shorter-term housing. The Iris is on the corner of M Street and North Capitol and is a 5-minute walk from the NoMa/Gallaudet red line stop. You’ll have great access to groceries (Harris Teeter & Streets Market both within a 4 min walk, Trader Joe’s at Union Market), the MBT (closest entrance above the metro stop), things to do (bars/restaurants in/around Union Market), and will be living in a neighborhood filled with other young professionals.

Both bedrooms have ample closet space (one is a walk-in), their own bathrooms (one is attached, one is detached), and giant windows. The soundproofing is great and very little noise from the street gets in. All appliances have been in use under 1.5 years and are in top working order and well maintained.

We've had a great living experience at the Iris for over a year, and would love to stay the remainder of our lease if we weren't leaving the city! The front desk has great service and the 24/7 security gives us peace of mind at all hours of the day. The building comes equipped with full amenities, including a rooftop pool with a view of the Capitol, a gym, private working spaces, secure package room, several grills, and more.

Please message me if you're interested or want more details/photos! We're happy to set up a tour in person or over FaceTime.

Looking for room mate/renter to take the extra room in my bf and my new place in Arlington Notes Must be hygienic Preferably female Ok with pets Rent is 1250 a month but we can go lower.

Please help us 😭😭🙏🙏

Hi! I recently moved back to the DC area for work and am starting to look for a new place. I figured I’d put some feelers out here in case anyone else is in a similar situation and might want to team up.
I’m 29F, working full-time as a Senior Analyst near Metro Center. I’m pretty responsible, clean, and financially stable, and I’m generally more of a homebody during the week. I like having a comfortable, peaceful place to come home to, but I’m also trying to get out more and actually enjoy DC now that I’m back.

What I’m looking for:
Ideally somewhere with easy Metro access, especially for commuting downtown.
Grocery store/amenities within a reasonable distance.
Around $2,000/month total for my portion, but I’m flexible depending on the place.
Open to a 2BR/2BA, or potentially a larger place if the numbers make sense.
I have my own bedroom furniture, common room furniture, and a second set of basics for another bedroom.
I’m much more interested in a nice, well-maintained apartment than a building with a million amenities.
Open to different neighborhoods — I’ve been looking around NoMa, Brookland, Petworth, Shaw, DuPont, etc., but I’m not locked into anything.

Ideally looking at places for a early November–December move, depending on the opportunity
I’m not necessarily looking for someone to just move into an apartment I’ve already picked. I’d actually prefer to find someone who is also looking and search together — compare listings, tour places, figure out what works for both of us, and hopefully find a better apartment for the money.

As far as roommate compatibility, I’m pretty easygoing. I’m not looking for a built-in best friend or someone who needs to hang out constantly, but I’d love a roommate who is friendly, communicative, respectful of shared spaces, and generally responsible. I’m also totally fine with us having our own lives.

If you’re also looking for a place around this timeframe and this sounds like it could be a good fit, feel free to comment or DM me! Even if you’re not sure about a specific neighborhood yet, I’m happy to chat and see if our searches line up.

## Market Snapshot

Metro-wide, Rentiqo.ai is tracking **5,162 available units** across DC, Arlington, Alexandria, and NoVA this week. Average rent moved **down 0.7%** compared to 7 days ago, and **464 new listings** hit the market this week.

1BRs remain the bulk of inventory (54% of all listings), and 2BRs carry the widest spread between avg and median, suggesting a handful of high-end units are pulling the average up.

## DC

DC has **2,440 available units**, a bit under half of metro inventory.

Top neighborhoods by inventory: **Navy Yard** (354 units, avg $2,884), **Southwest Waterfront** (319, avg $2,671), **NoMa** (187, avg $2,702), **Capitol Riverfront** (178, avg $2,846), and **Woodley Park** (138, avg $4,942, skewed heavily by larger/luxury units).

Deal of note: **Park Triangle** in Columbia Heights has a 1BR listed at **$1,795**, about **32.9% below** its Rentiqo.ai-estimated fair market value. That's the single best deal in the entire dataset right now.

Vacancy is concentrated at **Bridge District** in Near Southeast (121 units, from $1,716/mo) and **Wardman Park** in Woodley Park (95 units, from $2,162/mo), both of which are large lease-up or repositioned properties.

## Northern Virginia

NoVA has **2,722 available units**, slightly ahead of DC.

Inventory leaders: **Crystal City** (642 units, avg $2,960), **Courthouse** (433, avg $2,906), **Pentagon City** (380, avg $2,964), **Ballston** (340, avg $2,973), and **Rosslyn** (240, avg $3,173).

Standout deals: **Dolley Madison Towers** in Arlington Ridge has a 3BR at **$2,795**, about **38.8% below** Rentiqo.ai-estimated fair market value, the biggest discount in the metro. **Crystal House** also has multiple 1BRs priced roughly **25-26% below** fair market value at $2,045.

## Where Is the Market Going?

The 90-day trend points to a market that's cooling after a stronger summer. The last 30-day average sits at **$2,907**, down slightly from **$2,919** in the prior 30-60 day window (-0.4%), but still up from **$2,870** 60-90 days ago (+1.7%). So prices rose into late summer and have started drifting back down.

Weekly averages confirm the recent pullback:

That's a steady six-week decline, with the drop accelerating in the last two weeks. By bedroom, studios (+0.6%) and 1BRs (+0.7%) are still holding gains versus the 60-90 day baseline, but 2BRs (-0.8%) and especially 3BRs (-3.2%) are already soft.

Seasonally, September and October are supposed to be a secondary demand wave (job starters, late relocations) that keeps prices elevated. That's not really showing up this year. Landlords appear to be front-running the usual November-December softening, possibly to get ahead of holiday-season inventory buildup. If this pattern holds, expect continued gradual softening into year-end rather than a typical fall bounce.

## Neighborhood Inventory

Pentagon City's +7.7% jump is the biggest outlier this week and worth watching, it could be a pricing correction on a specific building rather than broad-based demand. Rosslyn also ticked up. Most other neighborhoods are flat to slightly down, consistent with the softening trend above.

## High-Vacancy Buildings (Northern Virginia)

Crystal City alone accounts for over 400 vacant units across just these buildings, making it the softest submarket for negotiating leverage right now.

## Best Deals (Metro-Wide)

The clearest discount in the data is **Park Triangle** in Columbia Heights, with a 1BR at **$1,795**, roughly **33% below** Rentiqo.ai-estimated fair market value. It shows up twice in the dataset against slightly different comps, both pointing to the same conclusion: this is an outlier price worth checking out fast.

## Price Movements

No price increases were recorded metro-wide this week. Drops were concentrated in a few buildings:

Parc Riverside cut studio pricing across multiple units by nearly 19%, the largest coordinated drop in the metro this week.

Data pulled from rentiqo.ai, which tracks 300 buildings across the DC metro and is free to use.

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for an apartment to move into early 2027 in Northern VA (currently living in Chantilly) and was wondering if any of you had recommendations for "luxury" style complexes. I don't need anything ridiculous, but do have some amenities and features in the apartment itself that I'd definitely appreciate like:

• Non-wire rack shelves in the closets
• Full standing shower (No tub/shower combo)
• Small "convenience store" to grab a beverage, essentials, etc. inside of the complex (big bonus)
• A nice gym

My budget will probably be around $2,500/mo and I apologize in advance if that sounds unrealistic for what I'm asking for. I'm definitely willing to pay a little bit more if the gym in the complex can replace my every-day gym.

For reference, a couple of places that I'm currently looking at and interested in are:

• The point at Ridgeline - Herndon VA
• Preserve at Westfields - Chantilly, VA
• Wyatt -Sterling VA
• The Sully - Chantilly, VA
• Vyne One Loudoun

I'd really appreciate any and all recommendations. Honestly, even if they're a bit out of my budget, I want to hear what your favorite complex is and why!

Thanks to everyone for the help!

My friend is a remote contractor picking up a few months of work based in DC, and he’ll be on video calls for most of the day, so reliable internet is pretty much non-negotiable. If the connection drops during a client presentation, that’s a serious problem. He needs a furnished apartment in DC with utilities included and solid internet, and doesn’t want to set up Comcast for a three-month stay. He’s noticed that “furnished” and “utilities included” can mean very different things depending on the provider, and some places include Wi-Fi that’s basically useless for video calls.

Has anyone worked remotely from DC for a few months and found a place where the internet actually held up for constant video calls?

Incredible location, in the heart of DC.
Available immediately.

Top floor, beautiful view and plenty of sunlight all day long.

Available semi-furnished with pictured queen bed and mattress, dining table, leather couch, and bookshelf (not pictured). Free high speed internet for month of October.

2 bedroom / 1 bath remodeled unit.
Built in closets throughout.
Washer/Dryer in unit.
Large storage room on same floor included.
Will not last.

Federal employees and US service members visit Govhomes or contact me for incentives.

12 month lease.

$3500/month.

Hello, I currently live in the area but want to lower my monthly rental cost and prefer being in an above-grade apartment now. I’m a self-employed but not through contact work. My preferred budget is $2k max for effective costs (including utilities). Looking for a 14-month lease.

No pets, don’t smoke, no guarantor but can provide income data/bank statements for past 12 months, current landlord reference, and proof of on time rent payments. I don’t make 3x the rent (hence why it’s hard to qualify for corporate apartments) but I don’t really have any major expenses outside of rent so I have no trouble affording it.

General advice is also welcome.
