[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: I wanted to post an update. We bought a house in our preferred neighborhood with the schools we wanted in Fairfax. We were extremely lucky to find a house that met our needs, but our compromise was that it needed major cosmetic updates (but good bones). It has all the space we need, on a fantastic lot overlooking a park. We paid about what we would have paid for an updated home further out (maybe a touch under), and we're spending a good amount of money for essential updates now and will keep doing that slowly for all other non-essentail but desired updates. But the most important thing is that we love it and we'll love living in it, especially once we're done with major updates.
Thank you all who commented, and wish all the rest of you lots and lots of luck finding what you need/want.
