[quote=Anonymous]OP, I get your disappointment on the turn the thread took, but I think you contributed to it, with your comment on looking to get a maid and not looking to move into her neighborhood. other poeple posted stupid stuff but I think they were being ironic, your comment sounded real. anyway, I do not live in that area so this may not be useufl, but we were in the same boat in 2010, lease expiring at the end of May, a toddler and a 5 yr old, our budget was 700K max, I word downtown my DH by the Montgomery Mall, and we were looking in that area. we could not find by the end of the lease. we negotiated with our landlord a new annual lease that we could get out with 60 day notice, except for between November 1 to February 28. this gave up peace of mind we could find a house we liked and give notice and not have to pay rent and mortgage. we realized that area was drive only life style and too far for me to commute in a reasonable time, we endeda up buying in CC DC. we got a single family home in great shape with a nice yard, but we had to compromise and get a 3bd instead of a 4bd. it has worked great for us. we have only 1 car, walk everywhere, movie theater, shops, library and playgrounds nearby, and the girld insts in sharing one room (we moved from our rented 2 bd so they could each have their room, and now they want to share, go figure - I am sure they will be happy to have their room when they grow up).
