[quote=Anonymous]We were buying last year and for us there were a few priorities (granted we ended up compromising on some). 1. Location: had to be close to DC and to work. 2. Walkable: had to be somewhere wirh things to do close by enough. 3. Good public transportation options. 4. Schools: Dont have kids yet but wanted a place with at least a good elementary school but preferably all three. Don't want to be I a position where we have to move when kids close to ES age. 5. SFH or a TH wirh an OK backyard. 6. Had to be under $1m/7k PITI. Given that interest rates were at 7% and prices we had to compromise on the SFH point and get a TH. Also compromised on the schools. Our elementary and middle are decent but not amazing from what I can tell (Taylor and Hamm) and our HS (Washington Liberty) is bad from what I can tell (but again no kids yet so haven't done super thorough research into HS).
