Load moreRenting in Virginia
From the Appalachians to Chesapeake Bay, Virginia rentals are diffused throughout coastal communities, suburbs surrounding Washington, D.C., college markets, and rural towns. Northern Virginia's government and defense sectors are the primary demand drivers. Meanwhile, University of Virginia and Virginia Tech sustain a steady student housing market. Outdoor recreation tourism draws renters towards short-term and furnished units near the coast and mountains.
The price gap between apartments and houses for rent in Virginia markets is one of the widest on the East Coast. The highest rents are concentrated up North around the U.S. capital. On the other hand, southwestern regions and small inland cities have budget-friendly homes and affordable apartments in Virginia.
Whether you're looking for new apartments, single-family homes with yards, or Virginia townhouse rentals, Rentler lists rental properties across Virginia, updated daily when new listings come online.

How to Find Affordable Rentals in Virginia
The areas with the most low-cost homes and cheap apartments for rent in Virginia are down south, particularly in the southwest toward the Tennessee border. The cost of living is significantly lower than northern regions and coastal metros. Rents in areas like Danville, Martinsville, and Bristol are typically $700–$1,500/mo less expensive than prices in high-cost markets. These affordability hubs are best suited for remote and hybrid workers who can be flexible on location. They're outside of the major employment corridors, but properties are usually larger with more outdoor space.
Frequently Asked Questions About Renting in Virginia
Because prices for Virginia rentals vary greatly, looking at each market individually is the best way to gauge costs. The most expensive market is up north in Arlington, for both one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. On the other hand, the lowest rents are in Martinsville, with considerably lower prices for both one-bedroom and two-bedroom units.
Compared to other East Coast states, Virginia rentals have high pet acceptance rates. The state's inventory is mainly suburban single-family homes and townhouses, which have outdoor access and privacy that accommodate pets. These types of properties have the least restrictions, while landlords are typically more strict about pet-friendly apartments. Virginia renters drive up more competition, and HOA rules come into play. Stay a few steps ahead by asking the property manager about any limits on breed, weight, or pet amount.
In terms of senior housing, Virginia Beach, Richmond, and Northern Virginia have the most inventory. Coastal areas have large retiree communities drawn to the region's mild climate and healthcare facilities. Northern parts of the state also have age-restricted communities. For income-based senior housing, Virginia's demand is high and waitlists are long. Beat the crowd by applying early, and consider joining waitlists for multiple communities at the same time.
Virginia rentals with furniture or short-term leasing options are concentrated in areas like Norfolk, Charlottesville, and Roanoke. Demand comes from government contractors, college personnel, and seasonal tourists near mountains and the Hampton Roads area. To quickly view short-term and furnished rentals, Virginia renters can use Rentler's 'furnished amenities' and 'lease length' filters.
High-income markets in the north and on the coast have the most luxury Virginia rentals. Rosslyn-Ballston, Old Town Alexandria, and Short Pump are popular areas for upscale rentals with best-in-class amenities. Whether you're on a business trip or visiting Virginia's shoreline, use Rentler's 'year built' filter, and sort the results by highest price first. Most of the state's luxury inventory is new construction properties with high rents, so these search tools make it easy to find them.
