[quote=Anonymous]PP again.  Yes, you are definitely seeing a few flips on the market.  The renovations I was referring to were just among friends and neighbors that I know aren't moving.

Our neighborhood is probably behind any of the neighborhoods in the W districts that had their small and old houses grabbed up, updated and sold.  There are houses that are being sold by the original owners (with lovely 1950s bathrooms and kitchens) and some of them are selling for a lower price or people are grabbing them and flipping.  There are even a few that are foreclosures and are getting gutted and then there are just some who are moving for other reasons.

I agree with some of the prior posters - the DCC is big and there are some good schools, some up and coming, and some not so up and coming.  You can certainly find good ESs.  Middle schools are harder so you will want to pay closer attention.  For HSs, Blair is supposed to be the best but it is also huge.  I have heard great things about Einstein and the IB so that is our plan.  Don't know enough about Kennedy and Northwood to have an opinion other than heard that some kids selected these schools for a smaller field and don't know anything about Wheaton other than a friend with a kid in the biotech program which sounds absolutely amazing (but not a home school program - it is application based).[/quote]
