Challenging to Investors
STRs are technically allowed citywide under Fairfax County rules with a moderate permit fee ($270, 2‑year validity) and a clear application path, but they are heavily constrained: the 60‑night cap, primary‑residence requirement (185+ days/year), strict occupancy/contract limits, and required life‑safety equipment create high operational friction and risk, and inconsistent enforcement risks non‑compliance penalties.
