The facts are what they are no matter how it may sound to you.
Your facts might be right but the problem is no one is going to trust your version of the facts because your post's wording made it so transparently obvious that you have a financial interest in promoting Asheford Court.
I still don't get the appeal of those areas at all. You're so isolated from areas west of the river, very limited metro access, virtually no retail/restaurants to speak of, and surrounded by tons of 'hood.
The appeal is not paying $750k+ for a 3 bedroom rowhouse. Sure I could play the fool and pay that amount for a house, but financial common sense will not allow me to do that.

It's a roll of the dice that East of the River will appreciate any time soon. As soon as a market becomes, "can't fail" it is headed toward a bubble. Remember the old real estate cliche -- location, location, location.
Completely random, but this is so crazy to me as somebody that grew up in DC. Riggs Park & Queens Chapel used to be some pretty tough neighborhoods. especially back in the 90s. To see that folks are looking to buy houses there now a days just shows how much DC has changed in the last 20 years.
That's all.
You talkin about Queens Chapel near the Stadium strip club ?

Riggs Park never seemed that tough to me...not saying it was soft, but it just seemed kinda mild and chill..especially for Northeast...It was definetly a black neighboorhood though.

lol is this a joke.. nobody is walking from asheford court to nats park
LOL... Walk to Nats stadium? It's over 3 miles away!
(...and not exactly walking through the nicest neighborhoods to get there)
Walked it yesterday, 2.6 miles from front door to stadium--took 19 mins. Most can't even drive to Nats Stadium in 20 mins.
