[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Pay up or double up" is right. We live in a 2BR, ~1000sf apartment on Connecticut, ~$1900/mo, 2 children. The houses near us are in the $1M range. We will not move until we're out of Oyster no matter HOW big they get. :)[/quote]

that sounds like a steal![/quote]

That's one of the small number of rent controlled apartments referenced earlier in the thread, I am sure.  Market rent in the Oyster zone for that type of apartment is $2750-3000.[/quote]

What?? I'm looking for a place and don't even see one bedrooms for that. What building?[/quote]

There are a few buildings along Connecticut between Woodley and Cathedral, along Calvert between Connecticut and 29th, along 29th between Calvert and Woodley, and I think maybe one on Woodley that have pretty large, rent controlled 2 bedroom apartments.  But there aren't very many of them (buildings or 2 bedroom units), and because of the advantage to the market, they are very infrequently vacated.  They also often have in building waitlists.  Because of this, these units become available very rarely.  You have to get lucky/strike while the iron is hot/keep checking constantly.[/quote]
