Overview
Century 21 Accent Homes provides Fairfax property management for single-family homes, townhomes and condos. We handle rental marketing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance coordination, inspections and owner reporting. Silver is $250/month; Gold is $350/month and adds six written guarantees, subject to their terms. Family-owned, we have served Northern Virginia since 1972.
Start with the exact address and whether the home is in the City of Fairfax or Fairfax County. The jurisdiction, home type, condition and association documents help shape the rental plan. We help owners prepare a first rental or transfer an occupied property, using comparable rentals rather than treating every Fairfax address as the same market.

Compare property management for your Fairfax rental home
How to compare Fairfax property management companies
Ask each company for the full cost of managing your home: monthly management, leasing, renewals, setup and any separate property expenses. Compare how repairs are approved, how you receive owner statements and what happens when you cancel or transfer management. Read the written guarantee terms, including eligibility and remedies, rather than comparing the number of guarantees alone. Our Silver and Gold pricing and cost calculator below help you compare quotes using the same rental assumptions.
City of Fairfax or Fairfax County?
The City of Fairfax is an independent city. Confirm whether the actual property is within City limits or in Fairfax County before choosing property records or checking local requirements. The City's real estate resources and database map help with City properties; the County's address repository covers County addresses and excludes the City of Fairfax. A Fairfax postal name alone is not enough to select the correct local office.
Compare properties with the same useful features
Share the home's condition, bedrooms, usable space, parking and included utilities. Gather association rental rules for a condo or townhome, and document outdoor upkeep for a detached home. Verify transportation and other location descriptions from the actual address. Avoid applying a single Fairfax rent average or a school-quality claim to every property.
Coordinate preparation and tenant records
Set the availability date around repairs, photography, showings and any association procedures. For an occupied rental, gather the signed lease, ledger, deposit records, inspection reports and open maintenance requests. Review the current management agreement before setting a transfer date, and agree on rent collection and tenant communication. Ask how the written guarantee terms apply to the existing tenancy.
What to bring to your rental analysis
- Full Fairfax address and confirmed City or County jurisdiction

Fairfax Property Management: Frequently Asked Questions
How much does property management cost in Fairfax?
Century 21 Accent Homes charges $250/month for Silver or $350/month for Gold, which adds six written guarantees under their terms. Leasing is 75% of one month's rent, renewal is $395 and setup is $150. A $500 owner reserve is held in trust; property expenses are separate. Both plans are month-to-month with 30 days' written cancellation notice.
How long does it take to rent a home in Fairfax?
Leasing time depends on the home's asking rent, condition, availability and competing rentals. Request a property-specific assessment rather than relying on a citywide sales-market average. Gold includes the 21-Day Lease Guarantee: if an approved tenant is not secured within 21 days of going live at a mutually agreed rent, the remedy is a credit of two months of management fees ($700), subject to the written terms.
What types of properties do you manage in Fairfax?
We manage single-family homes, townhomes and condominiums for owners and investors throughout Fairfax and the surrounding Northern Virginia area.
What's included in Fairfax property management?
Both plans provide marketing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance coordination, inspections and owner reporting. Gold adds the six written guarantees. Leasing, renewal and setup charges are separate from the monthly management fee; compare the pricing page and management agreement for the full scope.
How do I compare property management companies in Fairfax?
Compare the complete fee schedule, leasing and renewal charges, repair approval process, owner reporting and cancellation terms. Ask how an occupied property would transfer and read each guarantee's eligibility and remedy. Our Silver plan is $250/month; Gold is $350/month with six written guarantees, subject to their terms. Leasing, renewal, setup and property expenses are separate; use the linked pricing page and cost calculator to compare the full cost.
Is a Fairfax mailing address enough to establish jurisdiction?
No. Check the actual property against the City of Fairfax's database map and the relevant local property records. The City is independent from Fairfax County, and the County's address repository excludes City properties. Confirm jurisdiction before selecting a local office or checking requirements.
Can you review an occupied Fairfax property for management?
Yes. Send the exact address to confirm coverage and bring the existing management agreement, lease, ledger, deposit records, keys, inspection reports and open repairs. Agree on the transfer date, rent collection and tenant communication. Written guarantee terms determine eligibility for the existing tenant.
