[quote=Anonymous][quote=shirirb]Thanks for the quick response! Agreed re: transaction costs, though amortized over 3 years (the length of husband's initial term), it may still be cheaper than renting! Plus, we're worried that mortgage rates may not stay this low if we waited a year... That being said, we have no clue what real estate taxes look like in DC. Re: schools, 2 year old just turned 2, will be 29 months-ish in September. So no go on the public school option. [b]We've been looking at JCC, Co-op Gan in Capitol Hill, and Adas Israel[/b]. Will be posting a message on that issue on another forum![/quote] THe commute to Columbia from all of these preschools would be at least an hour during rush hour, probably longer for the JCC and anything on Capitol Hill. Agree you need to give up on DC proper, and that Silver Spring would be a better bet.[/quote]
