In case you were out of town or busy at work, here is a quick rundown of some of the stories that UrbanTurf ran over the past week.
- Here is a look at new listings in DC that we considered to be top-notch, one of which has already gone under contract.
- We learned that a 49-unit condo project will be built behind Union Station.
- We attempted to provide some perspective to the question: When is it a good time to refinance?
- A report came out saying that Google searches could help predict home prices.
- Just like Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae launched a home sales promotion.
- DC has made a number of lists recently, including ones that say the city is good for families, but bad for allergies.
- We took a look at how far $2,000 a month goes in rent in the area.
- We profiled the Arlington neighborhood of Lyon Village that might be becoming more exclusive by the day.
- Mortgage rates rose ever so slightly.
- The neighborhoods between downtown and the suburbs are becoming the place to be.
