[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend has a gorgeous house in a good school neighborhood in Dallas near SMU. Forgot what it’s called— Highland Park? Gorgeous homes, but pricey.
Do you have kids or single/married? I’d consider renting or buying a small in DC if you want a more lively scene. Some may be discounted due to crime surge. Check near Union market/noma.

Highland Park is absolutely gorgeous if you have at least a $4M budget.

(When we lived there you could buy in one of the less desirable streets for $800-$1M and I remember that seeming so out of reach. Should have stretched!)[/quote]

I’ve been watching HP real estate and you can still get a nice house for around $1.8 million.  Occasionally, one of the smaller cottages that hasn’t been torn down yet will come on the market for less. [/quote]

Nothing under $2.85 in the last 3 months at least. $1.8 would be a teardown on Airline.[/quote]

There have been. It’s hard to track, since Zillow doesn’t show sold prices there and houses in that price range go fast, so you have to see the listing and take note when they sell. Look at recently sold houses, especially west of Preston Road (the “zestimates” are close). I’ve seen some very nice houses in the heart of University Park (same schools) sell recently for under $2m. Of course, if you want 5,000 square feet on Beverly, it will be $4m (and up). However, there are starting to be price drops, even there.

I mean, this one is still $4m, but the price has dropped $250k after three months on the market.

I saw this one in UP go by for under $2m:

$1.4m if you’re willing to live on Mockingbird Lane:
