[quote=Anonymous]OP, other PP's have suggested it as well - it might make sense to rent for a year, just to get a feel of where you want to be. A lot of people do that and rent apartments up and down Connecticut Ave, mainly because it's close to the metro and within relatively easy access to many WOTP elementary schools. Houses in that area are really expensive to buy, though (you can get a feel for that - look up real estate in zips 20008, 20015, 20016), so you may prefer to look in an area you may wish to live in longer term, although there are little pockets of deals if you are paying attention. Sometimes people buy without an agent, so getting to DC and putting yourself out there for a year might help. Someone mentioned Glover Park - that's good, too. 20007. A bunch of PP's have suggested EOTP areas as well, which are also good. I just don't know enough about them to offer knowledgable advice, so I leave that to them. Not sure of your price range, but that might honestly dictate where you even start. DC is expensive, but you can do it if you are smart about it. Good luck and welcome![/quote]
