[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I appreciate the feedback.  Part of me says "this is crazy, just calm down, tough it out", while the other part says "life is too short, happiness and quality of life are important".

14:47 -- we'd lose $10k or less.

14:49 -- [b]we were actually thinking of Fairlington for the time being[/b].  [/quote]

In that case, I would tell you not to move because you will need to move again in a few years for better schools and rents are sky high already in North Arlington. Move to something smaller now in North Arlington that is privately owned and work on finding a place to buy.  The other option if you live in Fairlington is to plan on sending your child to Claremont (make sure that option will still exist in a few years).

I appreciate your feedback.  For what it's worth, we have one child right now who will be 2 in the fall.  Maybe one more child in our future, but not for the next few years at least.  I don't know if we will ever have the money to buy in North Arlington (unless we get one of those Westover 2br/1br brick houses!) and the rents for single family houses in North Arlington look pretty pricey -- at least $3200 for a nice looking single family rental.  Seemed more worth it to me to move to Fairlington for a few years and rent something for $2200-2500 and save some money.  Maybe I'm thinking about this wrong though.[/quote]
