Oh, that South Carolina Ave block again, but this time mid-block. A "close-in" Hill starter home! With parking! I bet that's going to get some quick action.

234 F St NE--not one of my favorite locations, but I'm sure it's enticing for a lot of people. Maybe $1.1m?

This house is really sweet. I don't see it going for less than $1.5m

I’ve lived on the Hill for 15 years now with no mice, no stress, and normal repairs.

We’ve had very few repairs. They built homes to last back then!

I love E St! Honestly I think you gave someone a bargain based on the proximity to metro, off street parking, and IB for LT and SH. But otoh the house is very small.

Well, they pay to make the most of nation's history, location, commute, vibe, Lincoln Park, Eastern Market, metro and ability to walk to Arboretum, Supreme Court and so much more.

Mice? That's what cats are for.

Sweet house! I think you accepted a fair offer given the size of the house (cozy) and location (north of Stanton).

Being right across the street from Stuart-Hobson probably put a ceiling on the price, too.

1) 604 E St SE (2br, 1.5 BA listed at $800k) - In bounds for Brent but could really use a facelift. I assume this will go QUICK just based on location

2) 418 10th St SE (4br/2.5 BA across 2 units - $900k). I don't love this location - it's kind of busy - but this is priced right for a 3br house upstairs and short term rental downstairs

604 E is contingent. That was fast.

Interesting datapoint for 604 E St- their neighbor at 606 E SE just closed at $985 (+86k over ask). Crazy to me that 2 BR (even in Brent) is going for $1m right now


Up by Lincoln, 143 Kentucky went for $1.5m and change (+$125k over ask). That will really irk our PPs who think you have to stay West of 8th St. I think Kentucky was a total "get" for someone - fresh coat of paint and she'll really be charming

Anonymous wrote:301 South Carolina is now pending. Given the price cut from a few months back and a slight further drop, I doubt it's going to go much above asking.

I really think they overpriced from the get-go. I bet it goes for $1.9m flat
