[quote=Anonymous]We were definitely a combination of 3, 5 and 7. However, for #3 it was really a matter of bad MS & HS options, not elementary and it's safe. We bought a relatively small (cosmetic) fixer-upper that price-wise was a bit of a stretch. However, we held firm to making sure we lived in a neighborhood that we loved. We're still here 13 year later and have been incredibly lucky to see great appreciation. As an added bonus, the schools are turning around and we will be able to get through public MS if not HS. Try to find a place where value is to be had. We speculated but it was informed speculation -- location, location, location. That way we figured we could bail if the school thing didn't turn out. Good luck!![/quote]
