[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Along the way, I reevaluated our wants and we ended up in a different location and with a nicer house. The original location I wanted is thought of well, but houses are older, smaller and more expensive. The location has good schools, but it would have been a longer commute (DH works in western Fairfax). We decided to start looking in western Fairfax and still got great schools, a newer, larger house, a nice yard and paid much less. I really like where we settled on and I like that the commute is 15 minutes or less. The other location would have been a 30-45 minute commute and that just adds up and takes too much time away from what is important to us. [/quote] Funny same thing happened to us - we were really against going 1 exit further on the highway but our realtor insisted. Turned out to be the house we bought! It is a lot newer has great schools and actually even though it's further, there is less traffic and it takes less time to get home than if we bought a house closer to our jobs but in an area with much more traffic.
