update:
Today I toured the Post Tysons Corner and Avalon Crescent properties.
Avalon Crescent:
I really like the floor plans, open kitchens with updated appliances. The floor plans just really worked for me. I only went into a model, so it was filled with furniture. Hopefully a unit I would rent would come the same way. Nice building and free parking and parking for guests. However, I saw the BugKill people leaving the property as I left....
Post:
Appliances not as up to date as Avalon. Slightly cheaper, but I felt like I got more bang for my buck at Avalon. Every view and balcony was either pointed at a grill, construction site or pool. Parking for guests kind of sucks.
I've got some thinking to do...I'm leaning more towards Avalon though.

Pretty much the same. Avalon is slightly more, but I think you get more bang for your buck. The apartments I am looking at are $1375 and $1400, but they go up to 1550. Post had some that were $1275 & $1333 on up to $1500.

Try the Commons of McLean. Easy commute onto the beltway.

I've been an owner at Lillian Court since 1996 and of course we think we're the best. And you have easy access to the major roadways. LC is a condo complex, but you can find rentals.
