Desperation on the part of buyers. It’s ugly


No, not desperation.

This house is .3 miles from the DC line. Mount Rainier is SUPER safe in terms of police. Zoned for MtR Elementary, which is an acceptable elementary school and there are several affordable private schools nearby. It's a big house and the flip is decent.

DH and I offered $650k for this home, but were beat out. It's a great buy imho.


Curious why you didn’t offer asking?


Couldn't afford it, took a shot under list .

Look at crime maps for Mount Rainier and you'll see a giant blank spot of incidents. The city is remarkably safe compared to other places these days.

I'm sure people are cashing out of their homes in DC and moving out due to the uptick in crime.

MtRainier is no longer dirt cheap and hasn't been for a few years.

See photo #11... those lights are odd as is the washer/dryer in the kitchen. Surprised it went for this much in Mount Rainier.
