What Falls Church sellers
should know

  • Confirm your home is inside the City

    Not every Falls Church mailing address is in the City of Falls Church. Some are in Fairfax County, such as Merrifield, Seven Corners and Bailey's Crossroads. The City's main ZIP code is 22046, and its Address Finder map shows which side of the line a property is on, which decides the taxes and rules that apply.

  • Homes built by 1910 need approval to demolish

    The whole City is a historic overlay district. Residences built during or before 1910 count as historic structures and can't be razed or moved without a permit approved by the Historic Architectural Review Board. For alterations the board advises rather than approves, but buyers planning a teardown will want to know the house's age.

  • Deferred City taxes are collected at sale

    Owners 65 or older or permanently disabled who earn too much for relief can defer their real estate tax at incomes up to $175,000. The Treasurer collects deferred taxes when the property is sold, changes ownership or the taxpayer dies, so ask that office (703-248-5046) for the balance early.

  • Search the City floodplain map by address

    The City's floodplain map can be searched by address or Real Property Code. Local flooding usually comes from heavy storms, undersized or clogged drains and water main breaks, and any work in the floodplain needs a permit.

Frequently asked questions

Is my house in the City of Falls Church?

Not every Falls Church mailing address is in the City. The City says some are in Fairfax County, such as Merrifield, Seven Corners and Bailey's Crossroads, and that its main ZIP code is 22046. You can check your address on the City's Address Finder; either way, we'll look at your home.

How fast can you close in Falls Church?

When a cash sale is the right fit, we can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose. Listing with an agent usually takes longer: Redfin's Falls Church figures show homes selling in about 36 days on average, plus time to close.

What is the property tax in the City of Falls Church?

The City of Falls Church set its real estate tax rate at $1.18 per $100 of assessed value when it adopted the fiscal year 2027 budget in May 2026. If you're 65 or older or disabled, ask the City about tax relief or deferral; deferred taxes are collected when the home is sold or changes hands.
