What is the HOV Lane on I-66?

View of the Beltway
I-495 (the Beltway) near Alexandria VA
Many states have the HOV lane incorporated into their interstate system. What is the HOV lane? Let's start with what it stands for, High Occupancy Vehicle. This simply means that vehicles with more than one person can travel in the HOV lane. There are exceptions such as motorcycles.  They are aloud to also use the HOV lane, with or without a passenger. The concept is to get people to commute together, we also call this car-pooling, so it cuts down on traffic, emissions, etc. The benefit to the occupants of the car is getting to where they are going quicker. I-66 has HOV lanes for your use. The I-66 runs east to west from Washington D.C. then crosses into Virginia. There are HOV lanes inside the beltway and outside the beltway. Below is how the I-66 HOV lanes work. I-66 HOV Outside the Beltway 5:30a.m.-9:00a.m. - AM Rush Eastbound-HOV2 and Motorcycles Only 3:00p.m.-7:00p.m.- PM Rush Westbound-HOV2 and Motorcycles Only All Other Time Slots-Open to All Traffic I-66 Inside the Beltway 6:30a.m.- 9:00a.m.- AM Rush Eastbound-HOV2 and Motorcycles Only 4:00p.m.- 6:30p.m.- PM Rush Westbound-HOV2 and Motorcycles Only All Other Time Slots -Open to All Traffic Dulles Airport Traffic is always permitted for all traffic.

What are buyers seeking in {Location_Name}?

According to a new realtor.com® survey of more than 1,000 home shoppers, privacy is driving the purchase decisions of many older buyers, with more than 20 percent of those 55 and older saying that having a space of their own is their main goal, followed by the physical comforts and stability of homeownership. On the other hand, 17 percent of millennial buyers placed the highest weight on family needs when house hunting, followed by stability (14 percent) and personal expression (13 percent). Only 12 percent of buyers younger than 55 cited privacy as their chief priority.  
Finding a rental in {Location_Name} is not always easy. Depending on occupancy rates in a particular area, it actually might be quite difficult to find available rentals that are also within your price range and meet all of your pre-determined requirements. However, even in areas where there is not a great deal of competition for the available rentals, renters may still have some difficulty finding the perfect home.

Figure Out Your Needs

The first step of any rental search should begin with the potential renter carefully identifying all of his/her needs in a home. This list of needs will be different for every renter. While some renters are simply looking for a place to eat, bathe and sleep other renters may be looking for a living space which will serve a number of purposes including working, entertaining and participating in leisure activities or hobbies. Do you need to be close to the Metro? Do you want granite counters? Do you need a washer and dryer in the unit? What is your budget? It is important to prioritize your needs and distinguish between needs and wants because you will probably have to compromise.

Use Our Website

Once a renter has a good idea of the basic features he or she needs in a rental, it is time to use our website to identify neighborhoods, condos, and properties.  This research will give the renter an idea of the types of properties available for rent in Northern Virginia. Many people are shocked by the prices and what is actually available.

Get Our Recommendations

Renters may also help themselves in their search for a rental by seeking recommendations from a rental agent. Our agents know the area and know the market. Once you have identified your needs and wants, we can probably take you directly to your best option. [Read more about rental agents.]
