[quote=Anonymous]We were looking at 2BR condos when we originally bought, and for the same price, ended up deciding to go with a 3BR rowhouse (about 1,400 SF) further east than our desired area. Eight years later, we are still really comfortable in the rowhouse with two kids, they're in a terrific charter school, and I can see us living here through elementary school (5 more years) if not longer. I'm so glad we have the extra space. I think you should plan to buy with a 7-year timeframe in mind - it's up to you whether you think you can make a condo work for that long. If you don't think you can, I'd spend the next couple years saving aggressively to buy a larger place where you'll be happy for the longer term. [/quote]
