You’ve heard it before: Location, Location, Location.

But according to seasoned Realtor Mark Worrilow, that old real estate rule just doesn’t cover it anymore.

“In today’s market, location is just one piece of the puzzle,” says Worrilow, who works with Fathom Realty and has helped hundreds of families buy and sell homes in Prince William, Stafford, and Spotsylvania counties. “Buyers are more concerned about how they’re going to live — and how they’re going to afford it — than they are about a specific zip code.”

Financing is Now Front and Center

Worrilow tracks local financing trends closely and recently shared insights about what’s really happening in our region.

In Spotsylvania, VA loans and conventional financing dominate the market. “FHA is still part of the mix, but it’s significantly lower than VA — by more than a third,” he says. “The type of loan people use tells you a lot about affordability and buyer demographics.”

Stafford follows a similar pattern. “VA and conventional loans are neck and neck there — only about 150 apart in number — while FHA trails behind,” Worrilow explains.

Why does this matter? Because today’s buyers are making decisions based not just on where they want to live, but also on what types of financing they can qualify for and what makes the most sense for their financial future.

Real Estate is Personal — More Than Ever

“The pandemic reshaped what people value in a home,” Worrilow says. “Working from home, needing more space, choosing to stay in a community longer — all of these factors have changed what people are looking for.”

He helps buyers think beyond square footage and school zones and instead focus on things like:

• How flexible is the home’s layout?
• Is there space to work remotely?
• Can you grow into it, or will you outgrow it quickly?
• Are you financially comfortable with your monthly payment?

Sellers Need to Think Strategically

On the seller side, Worrilow uses his knowledge of financing trends and buyer priorities to help homes stand out. “If your property fits the needs of VA buyers — which many do in this region — we position it accordingly,” he says.

And timing is everything. “We look at current data, not just seasonal trends, to decide when to list and how to price your home.”

The Bottom Line

Whether you’re buying or selling in 2025, one thing is clear: The old rules no longer apply. The market is more nuanced, data-driven, and personal than ever — and Mark Worrilow is here to help you navigate it all.

If you’ve been watching the real estate market in Northern Virginia, you know things are constantly shifting. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or looking to sell, staying informed is crucial. That’s where experienced Realtor Mark Worrilow of Fathom Realty comes in. With his deep knowledge of the local market and an eye on mortgage trends, Mark helps clients make the best decisions in a competitive real estate landscape.

Mortgage Rates are Trending Down

One of the biggest concerns for homebuyers is mortgage rates, and the good news is that rates have been trending downward. Mark points to the latest numbers, showing that conventional loan rates have dipped to 6.59%, with VA loans falling below 6.15%. FHA loans have also seen a decrease, making homeownership more accessible for many buyers. While Jumbo loan rates remain near 7%, Mark remains optimistic that the overall trend is moving in the right direction.

“For buyers who have been hesitant due to high interest rates, now may be a great time to revisit their options,” says Mark. “We’re seeing a slow but steady decline in mortgage rates, which is encouraging for both buyers and sellers.”

Market Trends: Prices Remain Strong, Inventory is Growing

According to Mark’s research, home prices across Stafford, Spotsylvania, and Prince William counties, Manassas, and Manassas Park cities are holding steady. In Stafford, the average home price for March 2025 is $662,000, while Spotsylvania sits at $652,000, and Prince William, Manassas, and Manassas Park average at $678,000. While prices are still high, the pace of appreciation has slowed slightly, making it easier for buyers to find a home without experiencing extreme bidding wars.

Additionally, inventory levels are improving. According to data from the Fredericksburg Area Association of REALTORS® (FAAR), active listings jumped 21% year-over-year, from 661 homes in February 2024 to 795 in February 2025. However, new listings are down 12%, and pending sales have dipped 10%, signaling that buyers are becoming more discerning in their choices.

Multiple Offers Still a Factor, But Cash Offers Less of a Concern

Even with inventory increasing, buyers should still expect some competition. “The market remains strong, and while more homes are available, we’re still seeing multiple offers in certain price ranges,” Mark explains. “That said, the fear of being constantly outbid by cash buyers seems to be easing.”

Recent market data shows that conventional loans are the most common financing method across Northern Virginia. For example, in Stafford, there were 47 conventional loans closed in March 2025 compared to 36 VA loans and 14 cash offers. In Prince William, Manassas, and Manassas Park, there were 178 conventional loans closed versus 49 VA loans. This suggests that many buyers— including veterans—are able to put down more substantial down payments, making them competitive in the market.

Why Now Might Be the Right Time to Buy or Sell

For those wondering if it’s time to jump into the real estate market, Mark outlines three key takeaways:

Home prices are still strong – While appreciation has slowed, values remain high, making it a great time to sell.
Interest rates are dropping – Buyers who were priced out in 2023 and early 2024 might find that they now qualify for more home.
Inventory is increasing – With more options available, buyers have a better chance of finding a home that fits their needs without feeling pressured to settle.

Let Mark Worrilow Guide You Through the Process

With decades of experience and a deep understanding of mortgage trends and housing data, Mark ensures his clients have the knowledge they need to make confident decisions.
