[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why I say that the DC area is not expensive compared to other cities.  You pay basically the same for a quality new build in DC as you do in nice areas of Tampa, Nashville, Charleston or even Birmingham Alabama.  [/quote]

Thats what i am seeing, i mean these houses are more than the new 8000sf builds in closer in Mclean/N arlington, yes i am counting the basement as well.

The houses you list are in Sunset Park which is considered a much higher end neighborhood to the location of those McLean homes.  It’s not apples-to-apples and I assume if you looked in a Tampa suburb (and not even the desirable section of that suburb…those McLean homes aren’t in the best parts of McLean), you would find the equivalent

No - they're right.  All of the Plant High School area (the nice part of Tampa) is as expensive as the nicest parts of Mclean.  But it's the same in Boca, Miami, Orlando, Nashville, Charleston and Atlanta (at least for nice new builds - not cookie cutters with mid-range appliances, but houses that are typically $3-4M in Mclean aren't cheaper in those cities).
