[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where do you both work? That will determine where you can look. An I out of the loop or is OP's current rent pretty high? She could save more for the downpayment with lower rent. Since they don't have a kid yet, I suggest moving to a rental in a good neighborhood (but not necessarily in a good school district), saving more, and aiming to buy a home by the time your little one hits kindergarten. You need to do what's best for you. No point in comparing yourself to those who are making more than you. I don't say that in a mean way, but doing that can make you take decisions that really aren't in your best interest. [/quote] Ha. Not OP, but similar income etc. We rent a 2 bedroom in pentagon city. Need to be by metro since refuse to drive into DC. One works at home so need second bedroom as office. With utilities, parking, and pet rent are at ~$2800 per month. Welcome to DCMA[/quote]
