Summary answer: Given Stafford's genuine current sale-to-list strength (close to 100%, with a fast-moving segment as quick as 7-8 days), this may be a strong window to sell an investment property here, though the area's genuine appeal to Quantico-adjacent renters also supports solid ongoing rental demand if you prefer to hold.

The real trade-off
| Factor | Case for Keeping | Case for Selling |
|---|---|---|
| Rental demand | Genuine appeal from Quantico proximity | |
| Current sales market | ✓ — strong seller leverage on well-priced homes |
