[quote=Anonymous]I'm AA who has been in DC since 1991. Sometimes I feel like it's our fault too. I bought my first house in Brookland for $142K - renovated. All of our friends told us we were crazy bc we could buy in PG and get a huge house. We kept telling them that DC was a better investment. At the time, black people didn't want to live in those smaller houses when you could get something 4x bigger in PG. Fast forward, I now own a difference house in Brookland, a new house in Ft. Totten and my ex lives in Colonial Village. We watched the tea leaves and wanted a good investment. We couldn't convince our friends to do the same and now they complain about being priced out of the market.[/quote]
