[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your other "don't split up the family" option would be to move to a 2-bedroom apartment downtown in your school zone and sell or rent your house. I'm the PP who makes a lot less than you, we did this for years with a *total* HHI lower than one GS-15 and a day care bill. If you'd rather move across the country from your family, that's absolutely your choice, but it is a choice and not something you have to do. [/quote]

Throwing away money on an expensive rental is not going to help us.

But anyways, I already did look into that. The rentals in our school district cost as much as our mortgage -- we bought in 2019 so just missed the insane housing prices, but if you haven't paid attention, RENT IS INSANE.  That is not a solution like it was in the past.

When we were staring out we rented for a long time with 2 kids, we know it's very doable.  But it has big trade offs -- it's very isolating since very few families live in apartments in DC, it's mostly a suburban destination for families. [/quote]
