[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I'd listened to you ten years ago lady, we'd be long gone from the Hill. We scraped together every dollar we had to by in-boundary for Brent. My advice for OP is the opposite. Stand outside your schools of interest and drop-off and get a feel for the scene, to help you decide what you can live with. Even drop in on PTA meetings if you have the time. easily done and lots to learn. Search for real estate by school boundaries. Some of us who've been on the Hill for a long time have seen dear friends bail for the burbs because they bought on the wrong side of a street. They thought they'd bought IB for in-boundary for Maury when they'd actually bought for Payne or Miner. The result was years of braving bad school commutes up to Inspired Teaching, Stokes or wherever. Not worth it. Live with the creaky stairs.[/quote] Totally agree that one should first focus on a school that works and then find a house that you can make work.[/quote]
