  • What you can afford . . .

    I've been reading your blog with interest. Yes, I am a realtor. I do have one mild bit of advice for other buyers out there though. It's advice I always offer my buyers, and I think its good. You made a point of saying that you didn't need to consult a lender, before finding a property. I strongly disagree with that. Not only should one consult a ...

  • Schools

    Interesting that you're considering v. different neighborhoods such as AU Park and Silver Spring. One question though - what about schools?

  • Yes, DC is Fashionable!

They have built a multitude of stupendous vocabularies. Yes, I am trying to show mine off. Getting down to brass tacks, the attitude presented ...

  • No shortage of Hill-dogs in DC

    This is a well written piece but I think the loneliness of a young Hillary supporter at a DC school is a bit over-stated. I am a 25 y/o young professional in DC who went to GW and my group of previously politically united friends is pretty evenly split.

  • Re: Birth Order and IQ

    My older brother and I have never taken IQ tests, but he attended a small HBCU in Pennsylvania, majored in computer science, and now teachers computer courses in a Baltimore high school. I attended a small liberal arts college in Massachusetts, just graduated magna cum laude in English, and am now a reporter for a small newspaper in DC. There ...
