[quote=Anonymous]We had a budget of under $650K, and we found a pre-war townhouse last year in CC DC. Needed very little work, a bit small, but we were happy to sacrifice space for charm, convenience, and walkability. There was a bidding war for the home (even in this economy!). If you want a SFH, it's possible in your budget but will be difficult to find one that does not require updates (I would budget at least $30K-$50K for renos) or is within walking distance to amenities. Also, remember that with a SFH, you will have to spend more on maintenance and utilities than with a TH. I've found AU park and Bethesda (esp with Maryland property taxes) to be more expensive than CC DC. However in MD, you don't have to worry about finding a good middle or high school. I don't know the hill very well.[/quote]
