Summary answer: It genuinely depends on which segment of Tysons you're targeting — Virginia Housing's DPA Grant ($500,000 cap) covers a real share of Tysons' more affordable condo inventory (Tysons East, East Side), while the Standard Bond ($800,000 cap) reaches further but still falls short of the market's single-family and luxury condo tier.

The two main Virginia Housing options, and their fit for Tysons
| Program | Sales Price Cap | Fit for Tysons |
|---|---|---|
| DPA Grant | $500,000 | Covers Tysons' more affordable condo segment specifically |
| Standard Bond | $800,000 | Reaches further, but not the single-family or luxury tier |
Why the specific building genuinely matters here
Given Tysons' bifurcated market, whether these programs help you depends entirely on which segment you're targeting.
