It wouldn't be my preference but is not a dealbreaker.
Ha, I was just remembering a place I lived that had the laundry in the garage, and it was in California! Op, that would be low on my list. I'd consider it "something I'm going to fix one day", but it wouldn't stop me from considering the house at all.
Me too! I didn't know it was a CA thing.
I don't like it at all, but would still consider the house. We have the laundry in an unfinished basement and I hate that, too, but we still bought the house. I like a clean laundry room.

Not from California, and would find it odd, but not a deal breaker. Really, the fact that it's not on the same level as the bedrooms would be the most annoying part for me, but that's true of many many houses.
I would say not to worry about it to much, but I discovered on another thread recently that most of DCUM would count me as living in squalor just because we don't have a sink in our laundry room. People here are weird about their laundry.

+1 I've never heard of it in the garage. Ever. But, I grew up in the cold north so this would be impossible because the lines would freeze.
Deal-breaker? No. Strike against the home? Yeah, probably a couple of strikes.

Isn't that against code in Maryland?

Ok, no chance a $900K house in North Arlington is going to have two laundry rooms! That said, I would have a big problem with it. Any way you can move it to the basement?
Many 900k houses in Arlington don't even have a garage!

Not in Arlington, I wouldn't. It wouldn't be a deal breaker for me.
