[quote=Anonymous]I'm in your same boat (pregnant and house searching), and we just decided to rent until our older child goes through the lottery. We were really impressed with a lot of the charters, which are mostly in Ward 5 (NE) or Petworth, but if we bought in those areas and didn't get into a charter we would be stuck at a bad in-boundary school. Our plan is to find a 3 BR rental in an area where we would be able to go to the decent neighborhood school as a backup. That should get us through the next 1.5-2 years until our older child would go through the lottery. Then when we find out where she gets in, we can look to buy closer to that school then, or stay put in our rental if we want to see how it goes first. I just really didn't want to get stuck in a home and not be able to move before we see how the school thing shakes out.[/quote]
