Summary answer: Ashburn is currently a genuine seller's market — a list-to-sale ratio reaching up to 107% in peak spring, only 119 active listings entering a recent February, and homes moving in as few as 7-10 days in the strongest submarkets. Broadlands has shown more moderate conditions recently, a reminder that submarket matters.
