Ok, my bonus daughter brought her 1st home at the Harbor last year. She is in one of the new build condos where the townhomes are. She can walk to all the everything in 5 minutes and she has the water views from her balcony. Was it expensive, yesss indeed; however, within the last year, it has already appreciated by $40,000. She said this is her starter investment for her future.
Resident here! This was a great video. If like to add that we are about 4 miles from the Target in Oxon Hill. In addition, the neighborhood is great for walking or biking.
I like National Harbor, but ultimately decided to purchase in Alexandria. I live close to Old Town and I'm very happy with my decision to stay in Northern VA. We have lower property taxes than National Harbor, MD and, I don't have to pay county income taxes, so it's a win. I love Alexandria!
re: the first home - I will NEVER understand why builders put bathrooms in the kitchen in some townhomes. Yuck! Anyway, I wish I would have purchased when they were building these years ago. Prices were in the low 400k price range. UGH!
@@BashirBadruDMVRealtor at that time, it was a couple of things. It was a little out of my budget back then and along with those high HOA fees, my monthly payment would have been too high. I was also looking for single family. I ended up purchasing in Waldorf which was great then but the area is a little too congested now. If my husband and I decide to make a move, I will definitely keep you in mind. I really enjoy your vids!
Love the location and some of the floor plans. They seem to lack a lil something for the price points… I know location, location. I’ve viewed Chicago & LA properties w/elevators. Lugging groceries, strollers and luggage. Whew 😅 Thx4Info
So disappointing! Bedrooms in the first townhouse are smaller than majority of apartments in the DMV area. Also, the schools in the district are a mess, including private schools.
Wow, 5he design or poor use of space and arrangement inmthe first showing whoa the powder room in the kitchen is not a good look, upstairs the master bedroom is smaller than the room leadeing out to the balcony, and yes the closet in the second floor bedroom is as big as theroom... thats rough, plus the cabinetry and bathroom fixtures are from the 90's... for 665,000... geez..

We also live near RiverTowne in Oxon Hill with Safeway and Aldi.

We also have 3 dog parks.
@@jjordan6066 thanks for the input!
Thank you! You toured a house I was interested in. The second property. Now, I have better feel for it. ❤
@@dovetales3 you’re welcome ☺️

@@SummersJourney-d5d Alexandria is great as well
Smart man. Glad you used the correct pronunciation. Prince George's county.
Second home..did it for me..the last one wasn't bad tho..I believe that the prices for all 3 were quite reasonable 😀💯

@@kdavis2195 what prevented you from buying back then?

I’m with you on the bathroom thing. I don’t even want a bathroom attached to my bedroom.
Nice area but it reminds me of many new 'Lifestyle Centers' around the country. Those Maryland Crab shops are nice.
There's a Safeway, Aldi and Target right down the street for groceries. You don't have to go to WF unless you absolutely want to.

There is a small grocery store at National Harbor. Beautiful homes. Too bad the public school system sucks there. Hard to sell to a family with kids.
@@proudliberal24-sv1wo which one? I think they closed up shop recently
@@BashirBadruDMVRealtor I was thinking of Potomac Gourmet Market, but you are correct it recently closed.
True. Schools in PG County are a mess, unfortunately.
I’m upgrading the kitchen first in the first home ! That’s my sanctuary😅
Good choice!
I thought you were going to view the condos down by the water. I would have liked to see those.
@@pup9981 i’ll do another video about them
Agreed. I was waiting to see the hype over One National Harbor as a Navy Yard resident.
❤❤❤
Would like to see condos.
@@thewanderfulteacher6195 i’ll do another video about them
@@BashirBadruDMVRealtor thanks!!!
this beautiful man could sell me on anything.
A lotta military people live there
