[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL, your realtor is just trying to make more money off of you by making you bid up the price of that one house in Franklin Farm. LCPS is just fine, go that route if you don't have a commute. [/quote] And you’ll probably save 100-200K.[/quote] Lots of kids and nice families on and near that street in Franklin Farm, including some that work at Navy, if that matters to OP. [/quote] There are nice families in Loudon, too. My point was that OP's realtor would point her to the house she'd make more money off of. The house in FF is nice, but it will go for well over list. Everything in that area has been bid up SO HIGH. You're lucky to have gotten in when you did. We've put down competitive offers in your neighborhood and lost them all.[/quote] You are correct as to Franklin Farm. I own a home south of Still Pond, and paid the price for a 15 year mortgage a la Dave Ramsey - paid in full years ago - just a different economy today. I receive inquiries to sell every month but I don’t know where I would go if I moved. I dislike condos and their association fees. It would take virtually no effort or time to sell at 4x what I paid for it, even with current interest rates. The unsolicited letters I receive are often personal in nature, describing their family and their needs. I found no complaints with FCPS schools (last one finished over 10 years ago). Both went to the top of the Ivy League (in hindsight not a good value but I come from a very poor background and wanted to support them). We definitely have been lucky [/quote]
