[quote=Anonymous]You're on the right track here. For reference from another mother in the TKPK/SS area- we used an AMAZING woman's in home daycare off Piney Branch Rd. and she was $250/week. She was totally incredible. At 3 we switched to a preschool which is $1500/month. You could find a house in Silver Spring with a PITI of $1500, but it will depend on how much you can put down. If you can only do 5% or so, you may be looking at a very small fixer upper. If you can put down 20%, you can find lots of perfectly fine houses for around $500K (although people in DCUM will tell you the public schools are bad but do your own research on that and take it with a grain of salt because there are MANY families with two working professional parents who live in my neighborhood and are sending their kids to public schools and are not concerned about it.
