I think if the market wasn’t as crazy as it is, they wouldn’t gave gotten that good of a return in normal times, but it would have still appreciated. [/quote]

It makes me sad to see these houses in my  neighborhood renovated out of affordability for most people.  But that TN Ave will be a very nice house for a well-off family that prioritizes walkability and a nice neighborhood over space.  My guess is they nope out of Capitol Hill by 4th grade, though.  They'll be all virtuous about the PTA and fundraising, then will quietly say "We need to move for more space for our very active boys!"[/quote]

The closer we get to that decision, the more I'm considering just staying and trying out Eliot Hine or Basis.  Partly because I'm lazy, partly because I am rethinking the whole schooling thing as a result of COVID.  My time and energy needs to go to saving up to pay for a mid-tier SLAC for him.  If we can just stay here and let our house appreciate ... The only thing I get hung up on is bullying, but I feel like that could happen anywhere, possibly even worse in the burbs. [/quote]
