I'd say the best locations at those price points are going to be Rockville, Silver Spring along the red line, Gaithersburg west of 270, North Potomac. 

Lets have atonement for Redlining where there was predatory lending which caused for the economic seesaw to be tilted even greater towards one side. 

There is also the issue of the aging rail tunnels and mass transit system, including the Red Line to nowhere.

With the red line you are never cash positive in the deal until the very end when the big chunk of profit comes in.

Make sure there is no racism, red lining or graft going on, and we would see a tremendous rebound in the housing market.

That's called "Red Lining" (bankers term that is not allowed anymore).

They said the banks were redlining and not offering loans to minorities so they wrote regulations to make them loan the money for home loans so everyone could fulfill the dream of owning their own home.When the banks had to foreclose and the bubble burst the guys running the government had to blame somebody to get the stench off of them.

Just like on the NW side everything along the blue line is $$$, same is and will be true about the green and red lines.

While you are in a large city I'm not sure I would really exclude anything by a red-linning approach or as to large areas.

I went to the moral issues because I already talked about the differences between the poor and those who aren't so.What that basically came down to was the ways the laws were written in this country for centuries. were all real estate people in here so i'm sure we know what red lining is right and how laws like those unfairly targeted minorities.
