The rear French doors are installed wrong and blow open in any wind.  

@Stephen McCrackenCouple of things1) This may be bank specific but both Chase and Navy Federal Credit Union told me that if I used a conventional loan on a home, I'd have to occupy it for at least a year if I was to use their traditional fixed mortgage.2) Consider looking 30 minutes out if the prices are too high if you're going the MLS / realtor route 3) Good idea using direct mail and cold calling to find off market deals.If you need help with number 3) feel free to reach out.

I've also been to Capitol Hill, Dupont/Logan Circle area and the Navy Yard but I assumed that those areas would be way too expensive for me to bother looking at.

Much better than most stuffy business shows.Hmm, I want to keep this brief but I have so many thoughts… I am British, my wife French and we both live in Dubai, UAE since 2014.Before moving to Dubai I was considering investing in the UK, shortly after I began educating myself and visiting local REI groups I got this job in Dubai and moved on very short notice.

If this was my property, I would re-gravel the driveway grading it away from the house and put a French drain between the side of the driveway and the neighbors house. 

Total one hundred % scam    BP parabas is a French bank.. your money goes off shore and say good bydeal with someone local that you can verify through title company as a known lender.

We have also turned an transient life style (active duty navy) into a an awesome positive.

My husband is active duty Navy.

If you know anyone looking i would do that.To go into more depth on this subject which i feel is important, is that as a broker we are here to serve, i realize everyone wants to make a million dollars but in the real life if you made 30 offers and i put 6 grand in my pocket, im happy, hopefully well get a real big offer at some point and thats where it will get made up and ill become a millionaire but this thought that a group of loosely regulated brokers making the money that they are making is alittle ridiculous from the propestive of a combat medic(and most other professional industries) that was making $50K on my best year in the Navy while doing 7 months in Afghanistan, all these people are doing is driving around and helping people out.

My husband is active duty navy pilot!
