Erik W. Fox, Esq.

The Fairfax Board of Supervisors voted on July 31, 2018 to permit short term rentals within the County.

SHORT-TERM RENTALS will be allowed in single-family homes, townhouses, condos, mobile homes and apartments. Per the Fairfax County website, the rules are:

• Owners or renters must be permanent residents of the property they offer for short-term lodging. This limitation is to prevent businesses from operating multiple, full-time rentals, like a hotel or motel, in residential neighborhoods.

Rees Broome, PC is proud to announce that Ursula Koenig Burgess, a Shareholder with the firm, was selected to be the 2019 President-elect of the Community Associations Institute, an international organization with over 37,000 members devoted to serving, supporting, and educating community association board members, managers and business partners.  Ursula will serve as President-elect for 2019 and then as President in 2020.  

The 2018 Virginia Legislative Update is now available on the Rees Broome, PC website.  Please click here to view.

Rees Broome, PC invites Board members and industry professionals to attend a 1-hour luncheon and presentation discussing the 2018 Virginia Legislative Update on Tuesday, June 19, 2018 at 12pm at our Tysons Corner, VA office.
