22204 Market Pulse: Strong Buyer Advantage
Demand is softer relative to supply and buyers have the most room to compare, negotiate, and wait for the right fit.
Pending ratio: 18%. About 1-2 out of every 10 homes for sale are finding a buyer — a slow market. Very few homes are finding a buyer. Expect a long wait unless the price is sharp. Homes that sold took about 55 days to sell, which is fast.

Local market questions
22204 housing market FAQs
Is 22204 a buyer’s market or seller’s market?
Here's what we're seeing: ZIP 22204 currently shows buyer advantage, with a ZIP-level Market Pulse of 25 as of 2026-10-25. That gives buyers a little more room to negotiate, though competition still varies by home and price range.
How does 22204 compare with Arlington overall?
ZIP 22204 reads 25 (buyer advantage) as of 2026-10-25, while Arlington overall reads 41 (balanced conditions) as of 2026-10-25. The two point to different conditions — your specific neighborhood can tell a different story than the city as a whole. Neither measures an individual home.
Does the 22204 Market Pulse tell me what my home is worth?
No. The Pulse describes negotiating conditions across ZIP 22204 — not what a particular home is worth. A real pricing review needs recent comparable sales, current competing listings, and your home's condition and features.
How recent is the 22204 market reading?
The ZIP-level Market Pulse shown here is from 2026-10-25. RealSights takes new snapshots every Sunday, and the city and other ZIP reports may show different dates.
What should buyers watch in 22204?
Keep an eye on available inventory, pending activity, days on market, and price reductions — and compare nearby ZIP reports. Homes sitting longer may offer more flexibility, but protect your inspection, appraisal, and financing terms. A market score never guarantees a discount.
What should sellers watch in 22204?
Price against current nearby competition and recent closed sales, and watch how quickly homes go under contract. The Arlington report adds broader context, but it's not a home valuation.
