Did you know that neighboring Deanwood is one of Redfin’s hottest neighborhood’s in all of the US?!

7. Deanwood, Washington, D.C.:

Median Sale Price: $315,000
Average Sale-to-List Price Ratio: 99.1%
Percent of Homes that Sold Above List Price: 31.4%

“Deanwood is becoming more popular for a number of reasons,” said Redfin Washington, D.C. agent Steve Centrella. “First, the neighborhood has access to two metro stations, providing quick commutes to Capitol Hill and downtown. Second, there are a large number of single family homes that are more affordable than similarly-sized homes in other parts of the city. You can get more home for your money, while staying within the city borders.”

Deanwood is right next door and the crime rates are sky high.

I started to look up the home prices… This home is going for 359 which is actually quite cheap for DC.

But what do you think… would you move to Deanwood over Cheverly? Should crime rates be a factor in buying a home? And when is Cheverly going to get some press?!
