What PPP is saying is that you lose a lot of equity every time you move. Until you're in a nearly permanent location, maybe you should consider renting. Would you move again for middle school? High school? Maybe MoCo is a good bet. The goal is to own your home free and clear by the time you retire.

Except that, as I explained, this move would not increase the number of times we move, it would only alter the timing. For middle school, I'm hoping for Latin or Basis; if that doesn't work out, my guess is that we'll suck it up and pay for private (probably the plan for HS anyway unless Walls works out and fits DD's needs). I hate the 'burbs.

^^ Also, FYI, renting most houses around the Hill costs more each month than the mortgages do, so renting is basically never the answer.

JKLM may be your answer for a move. There there's Alice Deal, Wilson, and all the privates.

Jesus, how obnoxious has this thread become? The original question had nothing to do with asking financial advice, but about experience with a school. Commenters offering other unasked-for advice should move on to other threads.
