[quote=bearishgurl][quote=LAAFTERHOURS]a house in Chevy Chase or Gtown for 199? Where do I sign up? Original poster mentioned transition area so I assume it wouldnt be either of those places.
My guess is someplace outside the beltway based on the price point…[/quote]
I was thinking it might be a foreclosed thrashed condo, perhaps even in Arlington. If I worked in DC, I wouldn’t live “outside the beltway” for any price. That area has *serious* traffic to contend with on a daily basis (even on weekends). The traffic in SD County, CA doesn’t hold a candle to it.
I would pay what it took to obtain a close-in property in as best of shape as I could afford and deal with the repairs one by one . . . but that’s just me.
In any case, congrats on your purchase, patb![/quote]
Im well aware of the traffic – lived there 2004 through 2006. Rented and owned outside the beltway and it drove us nuts. The original poster said house so i assumed he meant detached.
