Short answer: 500k is about right for a SFH anywhere in Fairfax County or City.

You might find some townhouses for 400-450k. While you might find the occasional TH or SFH lower than that in Fairfax County/City, it's probable that the neighborhood it's in needs help in some form or other.

Consider living further out and commuting in to FFX City or consider a condo if you're dead-set on a 300-400k residence.
