The house is cute but I’m a little shocked by the idea that a 1-level house can be $500k now in Mt R.


I think the residents are finding some of the new development unpleasant. It is an inexpensive community full of artists, hippies, etc. Like Takoma Park 30 years ago maybe?

Why shocked?


I think if you look, you will find few houses that size selling for that much. But, obviously prices are going up and this one is really cute. I’m not saying it’s not a good value - I like it! And the neighborhood is great. I also like that block.


That whole triangle of Rainier, Upshur, and 32nd is super cute!

Any bigger house will go way over 500k here. Mount Rainier has already hit 700k+.

this is one downside of mount rainier... the whole "gentrifier" resentment thing


Mt Rainier has been a pretty diverse place for a long time now. It was a sundown town before it was mostly black, and now it is fairly balanced as places go. Ime there’s some resentment about rising prices and taxes but it’s not the same as the “gentrification” conversations happening elsewhere in the area. It’s nuanced. Places are complicated.

I will say that Mt Rainier is extremely friendly. It’s pretty nuts. If you take a walk, you’re going to chat with several neighbors.

Do folks like living here? Looks like a cute place.


Kicking myself for not buying this or another Mt. Rainier property back when we were looking for an investment property in 2018.


We bought our Mt Rainier house in 2018 and while it has appreciated a lot, I think it's comparable to Silver Spring, Brookland etc. Everywhere has gone up. You needed to buy that Mt Rainier house in 2010. Or better yet, 1999.


Eh. We bought in 2017 abs house has already appreciated ~100k.


I live in a less popular part of PG and my house has probably appreciated 200k. The entire county is reaching some frothy highs in terms of prices.


White people are coming to terms with the fact that they can't all live in Bethesda and North Arlington.


or, folks are realizing that parts of PG have been underpriced for some time


Same thing.


Not really.

What are you talking about? Only 17% of Mount Rainier are white non-hispanics.
