[quote=Anonymous]What are you looking for in a neighborhood? I live in North Arlington and love it, also work in G-town and the commute couldn't be faster unless I lived in the city, but then we wouldn't have great schools. Depending on your budget, I'd definitely look into N Arlington -- there are so many great neighborhoods. But I think PP is right that renting first is a good idea. However, renting can sometimes make you feel more transient and not like part of the neighborhood, so a good real estate agent might help you a lot. Ours was patient with us for a YEAR while we rented and sussed out exactly what sort of neighborhood/commute/schools we were looking for and waiting for the right house. We got it and couldn't be happier. Granted, we were not coming from NYC (but rather Philly) but the prices weren't egregious for what we got. Good luck and welcome![/quote]
